This thread is intended to make everyone be accountable to themselves and maybe help those aren't sure where or why they struggle. I'm not going to be the one giving the answers as I still struggle with paying my self with my trading. I've been doing this for what seems to be quite a long time, to me any way coming up on 7 years. I've done the gamete of things from MP to Footprint to VSA. Did the whole Indicator thing before that . I'm sure I took the path that every one must take. I'm not a bad trader I guess, I just cant seem to make the jump from being a good trader to one who makes a shitload of money. So who Actually Pays themselves with there trading ? After all the learning curve stuff and courses we all took at the beginning. So My big question I struggle with now after seeing all the stuff out there is can you really have an edge in an entry( before hand) or is the whole thing predicated on risk/reward and sizing. I can give anyone 10 different valid reasons NOT to take a trade at any time in any direction but its hard to say Get long now your home free. ( last 2 years not included). At least I'm not selling every day the Indices I mostly trade Corn and Oil. Any way I guess the point is, is there an edge you can get or not I would really like to see some real results from those who do it . Or are we all just kidding our selves.
