Hi 

On the M1 since we are looking for HIGH momentum Setups only... I suggest that you revert back to the Aggressive settings so that these types of signals are eliminated. You will need to change settings in both the Banana and the Banana trend indicator. For H1 though, I like the 10/20 settings. 

cheers 

 

Hi!

Yes i am pretty sure you are right! I am going to do hat. Thank you for pointing that out

End of the day:

Have i followed my plan? yes
Have i written my feelings and thoughts to get them out of my system? yes
Have i seen my feelings and thoughts as signals and have i been aware of them and not let them take over me? Yes
Even if i have the vision of me doing things objective today i still  have a little knot in my stomach telling me that it is not the case.

Is it because i had a losing day?

FORECAST AND PREP

NEO

DOW/NAS

I have read trough the rules. News brought the indices to the upside. Now pulling back on M5. Lets see if a continuation is to happen at the open.

12.04.2022_15.32.26_REC neo pic 1.png

 

TRADES AND THOUGHTS ABOUT THE OVERALL SITUATION BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER THE TRADE

Nas is in a S1 pattern at the open. Dow have fallen and is now in a up side down V.

Trade 4
Momentum is high and a signal above the level to the left. Was climactic but signal touched the ema so i went for it. I have a bit high puls. I am in, its a Ds1 and now the rest is up to the edge.
Entry slipped… has happened alot lately…. Makes me a bit nervous as the loss gets a 0,1% bigger and the winners is 0,1% smaller....

3 R is hit.

Trade 5

I was back at the news release 1 H prior to Neo. Nothing extrem happening. I am watching Dow and Nas. M5 is pulling back and when the pullback is broken i see a correct waltz pattern on M1. I get triggered and then it is just moving sideways. I am scared.
The human brain is not working in my favour. I have taken a trade and the outcome is random.
No need to analyse the candles now. I am ALREADY IN!!!!
SL is moved to BE and then to 1R quick. Out with 3R.

13.04.2022_15.15.34_REC Trade 5.png

 

NEXT

A winner is more worse for the brain than a rent. 

Both in wide bear ranges just before the open. 

No trade during this NEO session 
OBJECTIVE today. Love the feeling. 


I saw the "good trade of the session", the break and retest as messy. the wicks made me iffy, it did not look clean to me. the signal was 20 pips as well so that added to the iffyness. I filtered it. I am trying to go with little to no wicks in the impuls. A missed trade, but as i am practicing now i am content with that.

13.04.2022_15.47.58_REC pic 2 neoo.png

 


End of the day:
Have i followed my plan? Yes. I have stayed objective and focused more on filtered trades and make sure everything is in line. That mens that i can miss ones that i took before with a calculated risk or even if it was iffy. Soo less quantity and more quality. 
This will lead to that i dont feel that my career is fragile and slowly minimise the fear of failure, fear of losing, fear of making misstakes and so on.


Have i written my feelings and thoughts to get them out of my system? yes

Have i seen my feelings and thoughts as signals and have i been aware of them and not let them take over me? yes

RESULT VECKA 2.png

 
This week i have been listening to my iffyness. And to be honest it have been good. I have had a lighter feeling. I have been conservative and objectiv. 
Less is more  
I am happy with the week.

19.04.2022_18.20.16_REC NEO trade 10.png

 
Valid trade.

got out with 1 R as the managementplan says.
After that both Nas and Dow just flew and made pullback after pullback. Beyond 1st and 2nd pullback. That is not where my edge primarily exist.
