Sorry I do not understand your question. What do you mean? are you looking for H1 The Seed or The Fruit strategy or something else?

A long time ago I saw a post and I can not find it again. I think the post said set ups for large time frames but I can not remember where I saw it. Immy I see the dots and moves perfectly after they pass but I seem to be entering wrong more than right and I do not see it being wrong when I enter? and I see larger time frames take longer but after a few hours if you were right with the entry the trade seems to go on for hours. Stops are larger I understand I am going to go back and see how to post a chart and I am going to post what I think I see and I believe I am right so why Is my account steadily getting smaller? I bought the wake stuff from Steve but I do not see how It helps. The 3 will keep changing until whenever and so will all the other numbers and I thought that if I knew where the 3 was I could get In the trade and ride It back to zl line WRONG. An example of my understanding of one webinar titled the beginning of time which by the way every time I watch It I am ready to make some more bad trades LOL. I mean It looks and sounds so easy that I think ok I,m good lets go and there I go straight to the poor house again. I have been trading forever It seems and the video from the beginning of time Is so good a monkey could follow it. Since I am having a hard time I guess its pretty clear that I am dumber than a monkey (not a good thing) I am working on It I am just missing one small part and I can not figure out what part. ?

If you can find me something that will tell me in the now moment that the future moment will be a wave 3. They will call me Barren Waffet or Dynamo or may be even Chris Johnson (Nicolas Cage - Next , a great name if you ask me for a movie) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0435705/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Moreover, I hope that you have not been operating on live patients while you're still taking your bio 101 classes... (meaning, i hope you are not trading live account. I can see that you need to learn quite a lot about trading)

ps: oh I think you are pretty clever otherwise you'd be RICH! Rich guys are not always smart, they are Disciplined. If you could trade like a monkey, you'd be way ahead of the crowd. But the thing is, as long as you don't understand that "Trading is a Pattern recognition numbers game" you will not find much success. If you're looking winning trades, you will bitterly fail. its that simple. As trader you're looking for consistently applying a strategy. Your job is to find a setup and trade it. Trade 20 times like that and don't look at your balance sheet. Once 20 trades are done, ask these questions.
1. Have I objectively identified my edge, The Setup?
2. Have I pre-defined the risk of every trade?
3. Have I completely accepted the risk?
4. Have I followed the Exit rules correct.

before the 4 questions, ask this question, do I understand The Setup? Do I understand the rules correctly, and do I have correct rules?

so my whole thought process is wrong I always thought you should find good trads and was told my problem was I was over trading so naturally I thought trade less and have larger gains I understand what you are saying and that ties in with consistently having good trades compared to bad. I get it and I thought that that was what I was doing just trying to do it with larger gains than smaller ones less trades more pips. I guess you are saying more trades + less pips = more pips at the end of the day/week/month RIGHT.

Ok I am going to show you later some trades that will explain I do know what I am doing but am missing something. If you are baking cookies and you leave out sugar they will taste like sh@:,? so I need to find out what my sugar is in trading. I have to go to work for a little while when I get back I am going to post the entries and exits and you will see everything Is good not missing sugar after trade only when I am trying to bake LOL. :-bd

Thats why I'm been "BEGGING" everyone to start a journal. It does not cost a penny! but alas, the discipline of keeping a journal is what everyone lacks. We here, offer you FREE mentorship but majority of traders, specially the ones who needs help the most, the beginners, don't take advantage of this. So, please do upload pictures of your trades and pictures of setups you think are setups. I would be glad to respond and I'm sure many other aimsters will comment too. Most people don' comment on other's trades in fear of not offending the other. I would like to say that this logic is flawed. If you think someone is wrong tell them, because at times you may even find out, it was not the other who was wrong...

cheers

Hi Immy the trades that I mapped out are gone I am going to do it again. I did not take these trades but I want to show you I recognize them past tense but am missing something as they evolve.
