I'm back, gonna start journaling on here more often, seems pretty fun. I developed & imprivedmy discretionary based strategy over the past few months and I'm finally seeing some ups again after a lot of bad performance. Trade breakdown: - NQ has been on an upwards consolidation, which I don't really like tbh. Two days ago however it broke that range with a lot...
4:00pm - 5:00pm ok trading session today need to figure out a way to place my SL perfectly PnL: +1 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm good session today Im using the ATR to determine the size (ticks) for my SL PnL: +2 RR
4:00pm - 4:26pm not enough volume in the market today, unfortunate PnL: -2 RR Weekly PnL: +4.5 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm good session today - price action was very good today (trendy and not too choppy) - also many good trades today PnL: +3 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm good session today - look out for key lvls! When price is consolidating --> even more lvls!!! - try not to get a bullish or bearish bias when were in a consolidation (higher timeframe) - trust your gut! worked out well today PnL: +2 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm - dont trade after your fkn session dummy - dont try to miss any trades alright??? PnL: +1.5 RR (atleast I cut the risk in half tho)
4:00pm - 5:00pm veri gud trading session today - dont take dumb trades (crazy advice) - focus on pullback entries when its not choppy! - work on your SL placement PnL: +1 RR (possible +2 RR?)
4:00pm - 5:00pm some good, some bad and one missed trade gotta lock in and conccentrate PnL: -1 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm session today was alrighty; some mistakes but whatever - PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!! - listen to your gut PnL: +1 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm today was a good session - LEARN TO TRADE IN CONSOLIDATION!!! like when its REALLY choppy - always watch how the candle moves! ---> fast moves is a good indication PnL: +3 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm good trades today; just some unlucky ones but overall Im happy with my performance ig PnL: -1 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm learned some stuff today but overall it was a good session - dont only have a bullish bias - it can still go down you dipsh!t - just because its a small candle/ small SL it doesnt mean its a bad trade PnL: -1 RR (its a part of the game)

4:00pm - 5:00pm learned some stuff again: LOCK IN PnL: +1 RR
4:00pm - 5:00pm (session) I have now decided that only 4 trades per day is not enough --> up to 10 trades ig; Ill have to take a look at the max loss per day then tho overall a good day; learned sum stuff: - watch the overall size of pullbacks! - wait for the right conditions!!! PnL: +1 RR
4:00pm - 4:58pm learned some things today; maybe really only focus on pullback entries? PnL: +0 RR
4pm - 4:57pm price was choppy af today (I hate that) --> maybe trade 1h later when price gets trendy? overall good trades imo; the SL placement could use some work tho and overall Im satisfied with my performance PnL: +0 RR
