[boSidesuSaNN]

Hello, traders.The NZD pairs had interesting movements last week, but I decided not to operate for the publication of the NFP.If only ... right now I am analyzing a short in EUR/CHF in the opening of the market.I will publish screen capture when entering the operation.Greetings.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Hello, traders.I just opened a short at Eur/Chf @ 1.0865.Let's see how we are doing.Greetings.

Hello, traders.I opened a short at NZD/Chf @ 0.7184.I was also considering a short at NZD/USD @ 0.7302, but I didn't finally enter.Update: I continue in the short in Eur/Chf @ 1.0865, currently with -51 pips.Greetings.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Hello, traders.Oops ... I closed my short at NZD/Chf @ 0.7065 with +125 pips.I closed it by mistake while trying to adjust the stop loss, haha.But well, gain is gain.Now I am analyzing JPY shorts for when the next 4 -hour candle closes.Pips accumulated so far: 570 pips.Greetings.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Hello, traders.I just opened a short at chf/jpy @ 107.50.Many JPY pairs are ready to fall, but my account is still small and I can't enter all opportunities.Greetings.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Update I continue in my two shorts: - CHF/JPY - EUR/CHF For now, I will not open new positions until next week.I am observing possible shorts in GBP/USD, GBP/CHF, GBP/AUD and GBP/NZD.There could also be a purchase in EUR/GBP.As always, check the high -impact news before entering.Greetings.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Update I closed my short at Eur/Chf in a balance point.I did not like the way I entered this operation, I think it was too hurried.Right now I continue with my short at chf/jpy @ 107.50, with +77 pips.The JPY pairs are finally moving well after a consolidation phase.Greetings.

[boSidesuSaNN]

"What an annoyance!"I still continue in my short in Chf/JPy, but there was a 70 pips gap when opening the market, which reduced my profits.However, I still believe that the price will fall more, so I keep the position.I also just opened a purchase at NZD/CAD @ 0.9215.Let's see what happens ...

[boSidesuSaNN]

"Another annoyance!"I continue in my two operations: - Short in Chf/JPy - Long in NZD/CAD I didn't see the news of housing in New Zealand and that played me against, the NZD fell 80-100 pips.But I keep my positions.I am even considering add more in NZD/CAD if I see a better entry.Greetings.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Update I continue in my two operations since last week.- Short in chf/jpy @ 107.50, currently with +78 pips.- Long in NZD/CAD @ 0.9215, currently with +43 pips.Sometimes the market requires patience.At first it cost me, but now I understand that waiting is part of the process.I am analyzing possible shorts in GBPNZD and Eurnzd for today.Greetings.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Update I continue in my two operations: - Short in chf/jpy @ 107.50 with +149 pips.- Long at NZD/CAD @ 0.9215 with +107 pips.I also just entered a short at Eurnzd @ 1,5628.Let's see how this operation moves.Greetings.

You have good results, but I worry that you don't mention how much you are risking in each operation.You can accumulate 1000 pips per month, but in a single operation you lose half of the account, it is useless.Make sure the risk is well controlled.Novice traders often focus too much on Pips and not on real profitability on the account.

[UtesSttcabesr]

Why do you operate so many different pairs?If you specialize in 2 or 3 pairs, you could have better results in the long term.I do not say that what you do is wrong, but operating too many pairs can make you dispersed too much and lose quality in your analysis.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Good point.In part, Opero many pairs because I look for the best opportunity in each session and I do not want to force operations in a single asset.However, perhaps I have to reduce the amount of pairs and focus on those that best respond to my strategy.I will evaluate it this week.

[NoSuTohr11]

It is not a bad idea to wear a diary, but tell me the truth: are you really following a plan or are you improvising on the march?I see that you close some operations very fast and others let them run too much.That could be a sign that you have no clear rules for your exits.

[Sestugtt21]

I do not understand the people who say that $ 101 is not enough to operate.If you can grow a small account without risking too much, that shows that you know what you do.The problem is that most see a small account and becomes impatient, tries to leverage too much and end up burning the balance in a few days.

[boSidesuSaNN]

It's true.I am not interested in growing the account aggressive, but to prove the discipline and consistency in my entrances and exits.I prefer to show myself that I can follow my plan in a small account before putting more capital.

[Nkrdg]

Have you considered making backtesting with historical data to refine your strategy more?Operating live is good, but you can also optimize your system before risking real money.If you have clear rules to enter and leave, you could try how they would have worked in recent months and adjust what is needed.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Yes, I have made backtesting in the past, but I think the live market is always different.Psychology plays a huge role, and many times the problem is not the strategy, but the execution.Anyway, I will review the last months to see if there is something that can improve in my entries.Thanks for the suggestion.

[esSojabesraSa5]

I congratulate you for patience.Most rookies operate by impulses and do not let their operations reach their goal.If you continue like this, the only thing you lack is to increase your capital and you could grow the account without changing your approach.

[CugwSak89oScho]

What has been the most important lesson you have learned in these weeks?I am interested in seeing what aspects of trading have surprised you more now that you have a detailed record.Sometimes what we believe is our fort ends up being our weak point when we see it in retrospect.

[boSidesuSaNN]

I think what surprised me most is the importance of patience.In the past, it closed operations too fast for fear of losing profits.Now I see that letting operations run when the trend is in my favor has made the biggest difference in my results.

[hudrauCTrosuak]

It is curious that you mention that.Most people lose because they do not cut the losses fast, but you mention the opposite problem.I guess everything is about finding the balance between protecting profits and letting good operations run.

[196400jiesn]

It is curious: do you follow any news strategy or avoid operating on days of high volatility?I see that you closed an operation before FOMC, which is intelligent.But sometimes the news can give good opportunities if you know how to take advantage of them without taking unnecessary risks.

[boSidesuSaNN]

I don't operate news directly.I prefer to close before high -impact events if I already have benefits, but I am negative, sometimes I let the operation run with an adjusted stop.The news can be dangerous traps if you are not sure what you are doing, and I prefer to stay out when the volatility is extreme.

[SiyortkC]

Good approach.Many traders believe they can anticipate market reaction to the news, but the reality is that the reaction is often illogical.I also prefer to observe from the outside and enter when the dust settles.

[JttoresCakaxses]

I don't know how you can keep calm when an operation moves against 50-100 pips.I panic and start making meaningless adjustments.How do you handle anxiety when the market goes against you?

[boSidesuSaNN]

Good question.The key is to know how much you can lose before opening the operation.If I already accepted the risk from the beginning, there is no reason to panic.In addition, use logical stops based on market structure, not in arbitrary numbers.If the stop is activated, I accept the loss and go ahead.

[Vuconto83]

I like your discipline.Have you considered operating with financed accounts?If you are consistent, you could pass proof of proprietary signatures and operate with more capital without risking yours.It is another option to grow without investing more money from your pocket.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Yes, I have considered it, but first I want to make sure that my system works in the long term before trying a funded account.I do not want to press too much or risk impulsive decisions just to meet the requirements of a proprietary firm.

[IStuCaSesngttTk]

It seems to me a sensible decision.Many enter financed accounts without being ready and end up losing for psychological pressure.If you manage to be consistent with your real account, the opportunities will arrive alone.

[HTkCuxxa]

What has been your most difficult operation so far?Not in terms of pips won or lost, but in terms of doubts and emotional management.I think that many times the worst enemy of trader is not the market, but its own mind.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Definitely my short in Chf/JPy.There was a gap in the opening that reduced my profits and made me doubt whether I should close or not.In the end I decided to maintain the operation because the structure was still bassist, but it was a test of patience.

[CAUSOS76]

Interesting.Sometimes the most difficult thing is to maintain an open operation when the market makes sudden movements against.I think the key is to trust the analysis and not react impulsively to each candle.

[CaCacs]

If your account outside $ 10,000, would you operate in the same way or make changes to your strategy?Sometimes a small account allows you to be more aggressive, but with more capital the mentality changes.

[boSidesuSaNN]

Good question.I would try to maintain the same discipline, but it would probably reduce the amount of pairs and focus only on the most profitable.I would also use less leverage and put more emphasis on capital preservation.

[EsTkTox]

That is the right mentality.If you manage to maintain the same consistency with more capital, you will be ready to operate professionally.Many lose control when they handle large accounts because they change their strategy and make emotional decisions.

[djoga1]

I enjoy reading your diary because it is realistic.You are not promising to become a millionaire in a month or selling illusions.It continues like this, because transparency is something that is scarce in this world of trading.
