Notes
It sounds like you're going through a rough trading period, but there are valuable takeaways from your notes that can help you improve your approach. Here are the key points to focus on:
-
Frustration with Displacement Strategy: You mentioned adapting your strategy to focus on displacements, but today's result has increased your frustration. This could indicate that either the market conditions weren't favorable for this strategy, or it requires further fine-tuning.
-
Clearer Rule on Support/Resistance: You've learned that taking trades against support or resistance levels, especially if an FVG (Fair Value Gap) is created into these areas, is not working as expected. This provides a critical rule moving forward: avoid trades against these levels when an FVG is involved. This adjustment can prevent future losses.
-
Emotional Toll and Potential Burnout: You're clearly feeling the emotional strain from inconsistent results, feeling stuck between breakeven and not seeing the desired progress. This is crucial to recognize because emotional trading can lead to impulsive decisions and further setbacks.
-
Contemplation of a Break: Considering taking a break for the rest of the month if you're in the red could actually be beneficial. Stepping away can give you perspective and help reset your mindset, which is critical for emotional balance in trading.
-
Reassess Your System: Your win rate for the month has been around 20%, which shows that the current strategy needs more than just slight adjustments. A thorough review of your journal and an emphasis on what's been working (even if rarely) is necessary to find a sustainable system.
-
The Importance of Emotional Resilience: Your notes express frustration with feeling like you're constantly taking "one step forward and two steps back." Trading success requires not only a sound strategy but also the mental resilience to manage these setbacks without them affecting your decision-making.
Potential Actionable Steps:
-
Revise your Displacement Strategy: See if there’s a specific market condition or timeframe where displacements work best and stick to those setups.
-
Focus on High-Probability Trades: Ensure you're only taking trades with the strongest confluence of factors (support/resistance, FVG alignment, multi-timeframe analysis).
-
Consider a Break: If the emotional strain is too high, taking a break might refresh your perspective and prevent burnout.
-
Journal Analysis: Review your trades from the month to identify patterns in your losses and adjust based on those insights.
Staying disciplined, even in difficult times, is key to turning things around.
Another horrendus, annoying, taunting, dreadful, waste of time, waste of day at your cumputer screen, ass backwards, does everything the fucking opposite of whatever the fuck you do trading day.
I said Id focus on displacements. Well well well, perfect timing the to try to adapt to this fucking shitbox of a marketplace and make adjustments to your prior strategy that has almost a 20% win rate for this month. today if would of fucking worked.
Cant win.
Next time, dont take a trade against a support or resistance level if an FVG was created into that specific support or resistance level. Because apparently it doesnt work and you just get inverted and reversed on.
Heavily contemplating not trading the rest of this month if I end this week in the red.
I am quite sick of taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back, clawing my way to fuckin breakeven, and just having my future or first payout constantly fucking taunted in front of my eyes. Its literally sick am I am truely quitting this shit if it doesnt work this time.
