Spending time without the financial markets is sometimes the best thing you can do.🙏🏻
Especially when I take some losses, I’m always resetting my mind!🧠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After a few days off, I’m ready to crush the markets again. 📈

📈PERFORMANCE JANUARY📈
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We are already 8.33% into 2020 and i want to start showing my monthly trading results (only FX trading).🙏🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
First month of this new year started really good and I booked more than +8% just to loose most of it (-5,6%) in the last week of January. 🤦🏼‍♂️
Just look at EURAUD Daily and tell me how short position would have worked...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyways we still closed in profit and February can get only better.

How do you guys experienced the first month of this new decade?🤔

TA= Technical Analysis. 🙃👀 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Most people will laugh at this, BUT the honest truth is that most people also are some kind of this person.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Trading is much more than your RSI or 50 MA crossing some bu****it candle pattern. If it would be this easy 90% would make money. The reality is 90% of your gurus do not. 🙃

When and why do i hold trading positions over the weekend?🤔 Part Two
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Last week we discussed what the risks are by holding a position over the weekend. 🙏🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can avoid them by simply thinking ahead when placing a trade. As an example i normally don’t trade on Fridays to avoid being in an position over the weekend and also because of lower volume.📉
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Another thing i do when i open a position shortly before the weekend is, asking myself when I will close the trade: Is this a swing trade? Which means there is risk of gaps over the weekend or is it a short term trade? Which will be closed before the weekend. 🤔
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I hope some of you guys now understand the risks of trade positions over the weekend and how i deal with them. 🙏🏻 Happy Sunday and great trading! 📈

This picture captures nothing but the truth about the trading journey.👊🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When i first started nearly 4 years ago it was all about excitement and making “easy“ money. 🤑(Btw I think that’s how most people start and why most fail and give up.) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now it’s all about risk management, looking for the long term gains and enjoying the adventure. Climbing the hill. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Once you reach profitability and the top of the mountain, you definitely want to stay there! But ironically it’s very boring because a winning system repeats over and over again. No feelings or shortcuts allowed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At some point trading turned from excitement and a hobby into a passion and an adventure. This passion is required to stay in the game for the longterm and not at the bottom of the mountain, probably forever. 🏔

The market does not care about your opinion. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Either you make money or you lose money! 💴

When and why do I hold trading positions over the weekend?🤔 Part One

As every experienced trader knows there is a chance that the market gaps over the weekend. Especially when political and worldwide events happen like the US attacking the Iran etc. 🌍

The risk of holding a position with a stop loss over the weekend is that the market could gap over it and you are losing more than you were willing to risk.😰

Let’s have a look at an example: I’m holding a CADCHF short position since Friday.
Number one factor I look at, when opening a position before weekend, is: Do lately politics and events correlate with my trading asset?🧐

In this case it’s very unlikely, because the focus now is on the US, USOIL and other assets. The Canadian Dollar or Swiss Franc shouldn’t be affect if something volatile happens on the weekend. 💥

Leave a comment below if I should post Part 2 next Sunday!💪🏻

THE ULTIMATE GOAL.. is to become independent and free! 🙌🏻 By achieving financial success and building a business you will get more reward than you ever will by working for someone else’s dreams. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My tip: Start a side business. Work for yourself part time on something that’s your passion. Once you do see success, turn it into a full time business! 📈
