That is awesome to hear.
@Philemon out of curiosity, when you say LB are your referring to the free one or the purchased one? I was looking at LB (the one you purchase) in my C&C + RT stack (in a few months from now as I’m working on other things) but I was going to start with C&C + RT + Raikov for a round or two and then take out Raikov and stick in LB or maybe something else.
The free one is LBfH. Love Bomb for Humanity.
The one you pay for LB. Love Bomb
And Lovebomb is a fantastic title for life.
Thank you for clarifying that. I get them mixed up but you made it easy to remember.
Yep as Parsifal says, LB the payed one.
Have it in my stack because it is something I identified I need to work on. Also for me personally it synergises well with RICH Trader because the detachment from outcome and self love are areas of my trading psychology I struggle with.
Although I do plan eventually to switch it out with RAIKOV to do the same stack as you. Even thinking of a RT + C&C + RAIKVO custom.
That’s a great idea, RVC. So here it is! 
Alright, during this whole weekend I was thinking about trading.
Bought some earplug since the morning alarm of my wife wakes me up too early every day, it gives me this low grade sleep deprivation. Now I should be able to wake up naturally once I’ll get used to wear earplug.
I’ve been thinking about needing to clarify some things about my strategy. I made a document last summer when I started to make some money, noting in big strokes what my strategy was. I might need to revisit the document or make a new one, I’ll see, but for now I need to understand a bit more how the market moves.
Same for me. Ive been thinking about trading and wealth non stop since I did my first loop of RT.
I was quite disappointed at first about not playing 3 tittles on the same day but now I understand why its the new recommendation.
Listened to 3 minutes this morning, and I get this sadness in me.
Winning mindset, what is success in trading? Is it about money?
I make 50% profits, lose it. I make 30% profit, lose it again. I make 100%! Lose it again. How is that? There is no end to it. When do I achieve success? Is financial freedom when I win?
No. And this is where the sadness comes from. I’m attached to winning, to making a profit, looking to figure out indicators of success, of when I’ll be able to quit my job, make my wife quit her job, etc.
But if I can make 100% of my account in cash, and lose it all over the course of three months, what does it mean? Is making 100% a good measure of success? Absolutely not, because nothing changed in my life.
3 years and a half, nothing to show for in external value. Only skills and experience. I could definitly had done more, under different circumstances and making different decisions.
Anyway, processing all of this this morning makes me sad. But I have to go through this to realise that sucess in trading comes from habit and what you do on a regular basis rather than the result in your bank account.
It seems like there might be a positive way you can re-frame this in your mind though (and I’d imagine RICH Trader will steer your subconscious in that direction sooner or later).
I mean you have made great profits, not just as a one-off or ‘getting lucky’ but on several occasions, or even a regular basis. These are results traders would love to have I guess.
You’ve been losing the money each time, but if you can dig into that, review your trades (or trading journal if you have one) and look at the patterns/moods/life conditions that consistently led to both your successes and losses, then I do believe you should be able to find a way to start reducing or eliminating the losses, leaving you with a pattern of (mostly) good wins 
And, based on the product copy, I see every reason to believe that RICH Trader will help you to do exactly that
@GoldenTiger I’m curious what you do for risk management? What are all the ways, excluding percentage per trade, that you protect your capital? Or do you get overconfident and forget about risk management after a good earn and lose it that way?
I take 0.25-0.5% per trade, but lose a lot of trades. When I get in bad losing streak, I can get to 50 trades losing streak.
For example, trying 3-5 entries on a trade idea. The trade doesn’t Work. After 3-5 loss, during a phase where my mindset is not so good I usually say it’s enough, sometime to see price go through my ideas or sometime reverse and I would have been right if I had continued to enter.
Sometime just go through my demand or supply zone and I have 5 losses in a row… Sometime I try to enter and I don’t get tagged by 1-2 pip before price reverse while I never got tagged. So I can’t make up my losses.
Sometime I just draw a couple of supply and demand zones in a row that don’t get respected.
Usually I transition from good months (10+% per months) to bad month because I get in an overconfidence phase because I’m making very good % and I start deviating a bit from my strat. Taking setup or trades idea at lower probability, etc. Which eventually lowers my confidence and all.
I guess in terms of risk management, I don’t have straigth rules for losing, I don’t stop trading until the idea is dead.
Yes, I’m super stoked. When I do few months in a row where I make %, it’s because I’m patient and taking good setups that looks good in a macro context. Trading extremes supply zones or liquidity run.
When I try to enter in the middle of nowhere that’s when I lose capital.
I still need to refine exactly what I do-did, I’ll re-read my journal and my strategy documents I’ve written to figure out in my notes Do This or Don’t do this!
Seems like you’re placing too many trades. Perhaps limiting yourself to 1 trade a day, one shot, one kill type scenario would help you. Then you de-risk while simultaneously learning to only take an A* set up. You begin to be picky, like choosing the right woman for a relationship haha, don’t you think?
Also, how many signals of confirmation do you take before entering?
I have not used RICH Trader yet because I’m on a different stack, but I will have a stack with it most likely around mid-year.
I can’t remember your background, although I’ve read many of your posts. I have had plenty of issues in my trading throughout the years, sometimes feeling as though I take a step forward and then two steps back. So I get it, and all too well. It gets tiring and tears you down.
I’m currently using Dragon Regen + GLM and have been for a couple of months. On Feb 1, after a washout, I added EOG1. Dragon Regen + GLM is a powerful stack for dealing with these core issues you’re describing. I know I have all kinds of scarcity programing from my childhood, we were quite poor and there was all kinds of fighting about a lack of money, too many bills, etc. That’s why I added EOG1, which I had planned anyway.
Just throwing that out there as gentle and friendly advice. I genuinely would love to see you succeed. I don’t know you, but I feel all traders are kin spiritually.
Here is my strategy. I think it might help me here to get it out of my head again.
I find macro supply and demand zone (clean break of structure, usually 4h timeframe).
Inside that macro zone, I spot the 15m micro volume level (orderblock, supply zone, whatever you call them).
Usually when I’m inside a valid macro supply or demand zone, and I just need to see a reaction (usually bullish engulfing candle or wick), that start from a 15m supply or demand zone (sometimes does a liquidity run below).
1 Trade a day is hard because most of the time my first trade fail altough I’ve seen sometime price reacting very strongly to the first 15m refinement.
I could altough do a swing entry at 50% of the zone, which is usually what I do when I go to sleep and I have a beautiful zone that’s just calling me.
I do think last summer I was checking the volume inside the supply zone, and spotting the zones with highest volume to filter out bad refinement 
Not a bad idea. I think Rich Trader does remove some financial limitation, especially since it’s some Adaptative Scripting.
I have to focus on one thing at a time at the moment 
, but I’m open to healing.
That may just be it, if volume is low, then wait to enter.
I’m curious if you have a clear entry and exit criteria listed next to you on paper when you are trading?
The reason I suggested that was because you can slow down and really analyse why a trade failed and learn from it.
Let’s say you crashed a car, you wouldn’t then immediately get into another and start driving the same way again. What would you say to yourself if you did that? As Fire said, Slow is Power. One lesson a day.
You’ve got this
Thank you 
Might add this to my rule actually it’s not bad and I know I referenced volume in my trading plan, in my notes multiple time last summer.
I remmeber also when I entered, price was often reacting strongly to POI level (when using the fixed ranged volume profile), or doing a liquidity run on it.
I’ll keep that in mind and I’ll try to cross reference volume with it.
@GoldenTiger Im assuming you are trading crypto. If so my only suggestion would be to trade a larger market like futures if you want your levels respected. I have in the past attempted crypto and levels get run and nothing makes sence.
Trading GJ pair. There are indeed some things that don’t makes sense and some other things that don’t.
