USDCAD updateBig bearish move has us at the bottom of a Key Level range but not quite breaking it. I'm going to need to wait and watch this one for a bit longer as we consider closing this down due to it stagnating, or actually leaving it alone as it creeps toward profit target. Either way, price action is shaping up to not behave in step with the strategy. That means it doesn't fit the profile and needs to be treated as such!
USDCHF 2.34% profit taking vidWe did it again, frictionless autopilot trade on USDCHF. This one was outside of the PRS framework but we still used the principles that hold true to get in and out of this trade with no maintenance of the position at all. I love this, I'm slowly learning to make most of my trades enter and exit in this manner.
2/19/20 The Week so FarI'm learning to accept these harder weeks as the better opportunities for me to become a great trader. Of course I love it when every position I take jumps out at me and earns me a profit, but I remember a point when I would avoid the charts entirely after a string of either losses or missed opportunities. It's so important to continue to trade with an unbiased approach as you look to identify good trades rather than "profitable" trades. As I always mention, this trading game is all about probabilities and consistency, money is just a byproduct.
Missed Opportunities/Good Trades Bad Outcomes - HumbledUSD/CAD pyramid pattern showing signs of not forming
CHF/JPY entry missed
EUR/USD exited before a big profitable drop
Some days are just like this, I'll recoup by putting time in and recognizing which trades were just too risky for me to have predicted and which ones were a product of me not putting in the time to ID them. I like these days, they remind me of the improvement I still have remaining.
