Emma´s T20 Journal

No news during the morning.

About the first one (Trade 12) i had my concerns as there were levels to the left. 
Though its a fresh session and a good setup. trade 12 and 13.png
 


 

I was doing my hourly checking when I saw a TC on NAS and thought, hmm this would be a nice trend up on m1. checked and saw this setup and WISHED that Tom and Emma caught it. I'm so happy to see you did. 
 
 

 

It was a no brainer

From one "holed" trader to another...

I believe in you...

Keep chugging along....

Keep working on it. You will get out.

I have two trades running...and I believe these two will get me out of the "hole"... but who knows...

One thing is true... if you really want to be a successful trader, you will have to learn to persevere through the drawdown periods.

Losing traders are losing traders because they stop doing what they did before because they experienced a drawdown.

They system hop and go looking for the next shiny object...

inning traders lose a lot. but when they win, they win over the long haul... 

it's tough... but you will get there... 

cheers

Statistics don't lie. Banana has proven itself in backtesting without human bias.  If you have a great DS score you will have the edge, and you have  maybe one DS0 per 20 trades. So if your number trades is big enough the odds will be in your favour.
It's very unpleasant (i'll put it mildly)  if odds seem against your trades, however when you persevere  you will win in the end.

Looking forward to the review. And thanks for sharing your trades, I learn from your journal.

So today i placed one Ds1trade and one Ds0 trade.

The second trade climatic and the pullback was impulsive, so a double ds0.

Hi Everyone!

I´m Emma and i have been a member for a few years but not until for a few weeks ago i took the time to start study it.
I have now decided to take my time to learn trading and do it for a living.

A litte about me:
I am a 28 year old mother of two. Right now im working 1 day/week at a local greoceryshop with a dream to quit it. I also run a business sewing and selling adorable baby and kids clothes.

I may already now excuse for my bad english. I translate from swedish as good as i can.

I Am looking forward to see my own progress as i have looked att some of your journals and seen your progress.

/ Emma

UPDATE MARS 2022
I am now working as a fulltime funded trader.
Everything is possible with a ton of hard work and determination.

Thank you for reposting this. I knew Emma got funded with MFF, but didn't know she trades for a living now, or what she did before trading for a living. Well done Emma! I'd like to ask if Emma could describe how here journey from deciding " I want to get funded, trade for a living"  until getting funded, has been. Very much interested in how she has been juggling all balls.
Emma, this is you journal so you will probably read this. Could you please describe your journey?

YD was bank holiday here so i was off the charts.
Today there were no relevant news.

Dax was a messy mess during the whole session.

Nas had some clear moments. 
I placed 2 trades. Both i consider as Ds1.

The first one, was a continuation from an M5 pullback.so contexty was good.
The second one was more based on the setup isolated. But context is there.
