Why Smart Traders Watch the First Hour (Initial Balance Guide)

{quote} hey I know this most likely isn’t usual on this site anymore but I’m a new to trading just now taking it serious after a year of procrastinating just graduated any tips or rules every trader should follow & any feedback would be greatly appreciated
Here are the rules to become a 5% (er), a winning trader and not 95%(er), a losing trader.

1. Stop looking for holy grail indicator for entry, it does not exists and entries are mostly irrelevant.

2. Spend 3 years looking at preferred market and work hard everyday and journal(every day) to gather statistics to understand what would be the best Money Management rules once you are in the market.

3. Spend next 2 years learning how to control your MindFuck(Fear and Greed), so you can actually execute your plan and not runaway after DD or shortchange yourself on TP.

4. After 5 years start small and add small fraction to a position every week you make a profit, do not add every loosing week.

This is what I did and after 5 years of very hard 20 hours a day work, I have been profitable for the last 5 years with 100% + profit.

There are no shortcuts. I make now in a year what average Doctor + Lawyer make together.

After reading this, you most likely will go to the next thread and continue looking for holy grail indicator or a system...if you do that, you will be just a part of 95% losing trader statistic.
{quote} honestly trading now and days is so saturated I truly don抰 know where to start when it comes to advice I抳e been looking into ict tjr usual suggestions but if you have any hidden gems I抦 open to it 100%
There arent really any "hidden gems". If you really want something close to hidden gems you're gonna need some serious mathematics and coding skills, access to institutional data like Bloomberg Terminals, CME or any paid data subscription, algorithms that can trade across multiple asset classes including derivatives, and a lot of capital.

For retail traders like us, I just recommend something simple and more price action based rather than looking at indicators and liquidity sweeps. Find something that works for YOU, and stick to it.

@rambutan7 - you are an Idiot, who instead of listening to an advice, decided to become a loser and a playa hater.

I have no need to show my record to anyone, as I am happy with making real money and at times helping struggling traders who have been here for awhile and almost there.

But for imbeciles like you, I will show 2 trades that I already posted today on live account.(follow the arrow).

I made $8,000 dollars today, while you are still hating. .

I appreciate your comments, but imbecile rambutant7 is just an ignorant piece of shit who will always be a loser.
Love it +115 points. Risky trade as range was large, but following a plan is a must, no choice.

Today's trades! Dow Jones opened and closed before I got a chance to extend my TP. S&P500 and Dow Jones longs also hit TP. Done for the day, another week in the bag.

Unrelated a Dow Jones dollar cost averaging buy limit was triggered with this mornings PPI news.
