It's not easy the last two weeks to find a good trade..a lot of range trading and choppy action, a lot of my trades got exited early don't want to take risks, but entered big know on EUR/AUD short tp 1.1810, entered also on EUR/CAD short, but already closed 2/5 of position to minimize risks

yeah, very very choppy. i have exited already quite a few trades on various platforms demo and live. however from what i understand there is no way around it. Ed Seykota told that if one want to avoid whipsaw stop trading. the key is to enter consistently per signal, cut losses and let winners run. it is psychological stuff. daily, weekly, monthly results do not matter when trading the trend.

I spent a lot of time in that trade for day trading quite a lot. only coffee saved me , lol. I will be day trading too. currently bringing everything back cause did not have time to day trade normally for a long time since last September. next month going to go live but will trade privately for 5-6 months. I think I can trade very consistently with good risk control.
both methods are very different but having bigger winners is a must in both.

the bad thing that 4 of my profitable short trades I started on demo but should have been on live. simply was delayed with my account. but I trade demo and live same. no difference and all trades are opened same time on both. now it is a whipsaw.

anyway you should collect 2 more to be able to vouch someone else.
good luck for your tradings!

yeah, day trading with such stops as I do require focus. plus I have not been day trading for about a year. got a bot rusty although trading is going very very good so far. my psychology is good too.
