This will be a different thread than all the others...
Hi.
First, I want to say I'm using a translator, so I apologize for any errors.
I'am Tomasz, I've been trading Forex for several years. I've been through everything ?I've lost my entire deposit several times, there have been situations where I accumulated a large profit in a week, only to lose it all in a day or two. I know the feeling of exploding euphoria after a win and I've also experienced depressive states after losses. I know all these.
I started like everyone else ?I saw a Forex topic somewhere ?I watched Forex "miracle" traders on YouTube ?you know - ICT, Steve Mauro, Captain Jack, Hanzo Shadowcodes, S&D, Fibonacci all sorts of indicators, etc., etc., etc. blah, blah, I could go on forever. Those who "sleep" on Forex money but still 則each? haha. Over the past few years, I've probably browsed every online forum searching for magic method that will make me rich (hahaha). But the same thought was still in my head - Forex has potential, this is what I want to do.
Despite reading all these threads, strategies, studying technical and fundamental analysis, candlestick patterns, and listening to forex gurus, I was still stuck. My game was constantly in the red. I asked myself ?how is it possible that all these people are achieving success and I'm still struggling? Am I lacking intelligence, maybe I'm not learning enough? Despite my efforts, nothing happened. I was going in circles. Do you know this feeling? Have you been through this too? I wondered how it was possible that there were over 3,300 strategies started on Forex Factory and yet it was difficult to find a thread where people were actually making consistent money.
I took a break, a half-year break ?I gave up. One day, out of boredom, I was browsing YouTube and a video with a nondescript guy called Mark Douglas popped up. I watched one of his videos, then another, and another ?I couldn't stop. There was a great interview with him on the Mind Over Market program, also available on YouTube. What I saw then was like a long-awaited light at the end of the tunnel, an epiphany, a missing puzzle piece. This puzzle was called Trader Psychology. I bought and read his book ?Trader in the Zone (by the way, the title A must-read ?if you're going to buy one book about Forex, let it be this one.) Everything I've read, listened to, and watched so far has turned out to be worthless. I realized that Internet gurus are selling us crap; they don't make money from their game, but from losers like you and me who subscribe to their channels, buy worthless courses, etc. They were never interested in finding the answer, but in pretending to look for it.
Because Forex isn't about strategy, the malice of the market, MM, fate, or anything else. Our greatest enemy, the one we must tame, is ourselves. Our minds, our mentality, our psyche, etc. This is the TRUE solution we are looking for.
I started digging deeper into the topic ?I was surprised how few people talked about the trader's psyche. Everyone was just looking for a system, a strategy, a Holy Grail that would turn everything they touched into gold. They were searching for answers on how to crack the Forex code, but it turns out the solution was right in front of us all along ?all we had to do was look in the mirror.
So what's this all about?
In short, it's about reprogramming our minds. If you're thinking, 刉TF? What is this guy talking about ?what kind of minds, what kind of reprogramming, is he some kind of lunatic, etc.? Fuck it, I wasted 10 minutes of my life reading this crap?.. Okay, I respect everyone, they'll follow their own path, but I'm sure you'll come back sooner or later. You'll come back because you'll read 3,300 strategy threads on Forex Factory, then watch hundreds of YouTube videos, read millions of posts on Pinterest and other forums, and you'll realize, like I once did, that you're going in circles and nothing has brought you closer to your goal ?achieving success in Forex. Some people simply need to gain experience this way, others simply need to learn from their mistakes to understand ?if you need that, go ahead. Just remember this thread ?save it, and come back later?br /> I've written a lot in one sitting; if I have a moment, I'll write something later. For those interested and eager to change their game, I invite you to check out Mark Douglas's videos available on YouTube, and Trading in the Zone is also worth reading. It won't be wasted time, I guarantee. What you'll hear there will be a good foundation for further understanding what I'll write here.
Remember - I can show you the map, but it's up to you to decide whether you want to devote your time, energy, and effort to it. Because you'll have to reprogram yourself, and that requires the three things mentioned above. Don't rush into an answer, sleep on it, think about it梬hen you know the answer, come back and read more of this thread.
Bye
Tomasz
