Journal RoW + Whatever

Journals - Major Programs
#1

I kept seeing I’m posting long ass messages in the Revelation of Wealth thread.

I’ll try to post them here instead. Maybe link some of my findings or results to the RoW thread.

I’ll try to say focus on Revelation of Wealth, some other programs might bleed in a bit. I am currently in washout, restarting my next cycle on march 3. As of now, I’m thinking to run RoW, Mogul and Primal, but this is always subject to change, the main growth I’m aiming for is centered around RoW, the rest is mostly to have accute effect of Mogul and Primal, I am not necessarly worried about their long term effect.

Are you working another career at all or just trading for a living?
What are your primary paths of income and wealth?

Trading 100%.

I have a job where I work on a self care project for a small non profit which helps pay my bills and is kinda fun.

Either I make money with trading or I stay poor.

Recon subsided. I’m in a break from trading.

I’m currently hesitating as to attribute my lower recon to, more processing or less trading emotions? Maybe a mix of both.

As of yesterday, I was looking into microsurgery to fix some of my veins, will check how much it can cost.

All those research are definitly done because of my mindset evolving, it’s great.

Now I have to focus more on the process of learning trading and let go of those results expectation that comes from my need for money.

Had a pretty chill week in terms of recon. This afternoon some uncertainty about money came back up.

Do I trust my skills to pay the bills? Suddently I’m not sure!

Fear regarding my skills are still up, suddently I fear of losing my job. Some event happened where I work, very bad for the political landscape and what we do. Some of our partners cut ties with us.

Will see where it goes in the next few weeks, getting back on track with Primal+Mogul starting monday.

So sorry for the 25% tariffs :frowning:

Not a problem as of now :+1:

Running a loop of RoW and Primal (3 min each) this morning.

Curious to see how recon will go this cycle. As of now it’s pretty subtle, Mogul has me thinking about money more…

Tryed couple of entries that didn’t work this week :thinking: Wrote down notes regarding what was wrong, or at least what I could of learn from it.

First week of coming back to trading not going as I wanted, I’m still focused on learning more.

I think RoW is at work now, maybe mogul… But I’ve had another insight, using volume indicator to figure out my entries. Most of the time I try to enter the market too often before finally catching something.

Fixed range volume profile helps me visualise how much volume there is in a pack of candle over the range of a movement. I believe it can be used to have more precise entry.

I need to be patient, I see the market moving. Ups and down…

I’m hesitating a bit, it’s hard to say exactly what is up at the moment in my mind. I’m on a losing streak, it’s like if I stop my losing streak I can make money too easily and then I’m done.

When I find a way to mentally stop sabotaging myself, then I can profit a lot.

Last loop of my cycle tomorrow, I’ll try microloop from now on, usually I go for loops of 3-5 minutes, but I usually get a bit of recon from it so I’ll stay microlooping as I progress more and more.

This cycle I felt more like I was adjusting my strategy, trying to gain more precision with my understanding of what my strategy was and understanding how the market move.

In washout now, after lowering my exposure last thursday’s loop.

I’ve noticed that I’m calmer, less erratic in my mood and mind.

Finally caught a trade going my way, at this moment it is at 15R. Will see to edge my trade soon if possible.

I’ve also noticed that all my strategy is already written in my note book in a way that I can understand it since past december. I wrote it after asking myself the question of how did I make such a big trade last summer? How was I able to enter the market without losing 10% of my account. And anwsers came to me.

If I can just stop doing bullshit and follow my notebook, I’ll be a champion trader, unfortunatly I seem to sometime doing whatever and start giving my hard earned money back to the market like I don’t deserve it!

Market moves from price to price. People buy and sell at certain prices, in between there is nothing.

As traders we see candles, but there is no activity there. Finding places where lots of transaction happened makes it easier to find spots where market could reverse.

Hello, I’m new to the forum and I saw you talking about trading, and in that… oh, I have experience in that!

What resonates with me when I read it is, in your perspective when seeing the market, because it seems that you are projecting patterns in your mind instead of following the market flow. Regardless of the strategy you are following, you need data/statistics to really see if it is worth it in the long run.

That said, just focusing on execution is enough, of course there is management and emotional, but doing the same strategy the whole month will follow a basis that will make your management smooth and really make money.

Another thing, have you heard of proprietary trading desks? You can earn well when you already have consistency, FTMO / THE5ERS etc…

and a final tip [is]: focus only on the %, not on lots! in the future you will see how you will leverage without thinking about lots etc…

Nice to see a fellow trader here on the forum :wink: Thank you for the input. How’s your trading journey going?

I think I’m in a what’s called boom and bust cycle, I’ve been at the same strategy for 2 years, same instrument for a year.

Whenever I make money, I tend to focus so much on the money and what it can bring in my life that I suddently see the market differently and try do stupid entry (and me noticing is pretty recent, like in the last couple of days).

My trader friend who also run subs recommended I run Revelation of Spirit so I can discover myself.

Yes this is exactly what happens when I start to make $$, I’m projecting and using my strategy on this projection rather than what is really happening in the market and I start taking bullshit trades.

Yes, my trader friend makes a living with those, that said when I’m doing a couple of profitable month in a row, I might try to pay for a challenge!

Yes, it’s hard especially when greed and fear comes to play with me :wink:

That said, I’m keeping in mind those healthy reminders, and will also try RoS in my next cycle see how my vision of my emotions and the market are affected.

Row has me thinking a lot about my relationship with money and success…

Also with trading, it’s so wierd I’m not sure I can explain with words.

Might have to come back when I have anwsers to post an update… :thinking:

This RoW has changed my relationship with money definitly, I don’t know it it’s been good for trading for me.

I’ve heard some good comments regarding RoW for making money with trading the market off forum, unfortunately it hasn’t been my experience as of now, RoW seems to be working on some deep things, maybe too deep at the moment which might bring me in subtle recon.

Or just change my decision making in the process… I’ve decided to drop RoW for the moment. Keep the learnings I’ve had with it and modify my stack to come back to something I’ve had results with earlier.

With this I’ll be stopping my journal here, leaving with new learnings that I got from RoW and will find a new stack that keep my recon to the minimum.

I’m creating an expert to follow moving averages, and some other indicators along with it.

My journey started with robots, now I’m focusing more on the manual so that I can master them better and make more profits constantly. It’s not easy, but it’s all a matter of time, focus and self-control, because controlling the market or designing ideas for it is not always feasible.

I hope you have consistent profits, the important thing is to close the month in a positive way!
