Trading Group Therapy, White Belt – Fingers Saved! 18th Nov, 12:30pm EST.

This Thursday (18th November, 2021), we are holding an impromptu Group Therapy.  For a change, the topics will be somewhat of a mystery – well, they will to me. And if that’s all you need to sign up so you can listen to my accent – click here

For the more demanding amongst you…

I often get emails like the one below and often it’s hard to type a response as it would take so much time. Hence we hop on calls. In this case, we’ll have a live call with the trader. I have not spoken to them yet, and this is someone who likely needs broader advice – much different from recent sessions with Marcos or CB who just needed help getting over the line. This looks more like someone that needs pointers earlier on in their journey – at least on the Order Flow side. Here’s the email:

I do not know if it is OK to write to you directly, if not let me know.

I have been using JigSaw for a month now on Futures Funding accounts and all in all it seems like I am doing something correctly but then again.
I was inspired by the 1 tick drill and the “Road to Profit” video so I have mainly tried to get 1-2 ticks form the UB or 1 point in the ES per entry. Also I did mostly only 1 – 2 trades a day. For now I am having an almost 90% win rate with 1 contract. I am now starting to take more trades and am also contemplating to use 2 instead of 1 contract for the entries.
But in several of your videos I have seen that you are a proponent of large(r) targets but then obviously lower win rates. Also in the 7 most effective Trading Setups video “my way” is called a bad setup or way of trading.
So would you be able to provide me with some help or pointers to how I can transition from where I am to where I “should” be ?”

So a more “back to basics” session – techniques, expectations and figuring out what on earth to do next.

Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN; IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM. ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK OF ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT TRADING RESULTS.
