      A good trick I use while daytrading Eminis is to not watch the running P/L but the number of ticks. This makes me more disciplined and no emotional seeing the amount of $$$'s

      Overconfidence due to past gains might soon lead you to make easier and less ideal entries into the market. When you’re riding high, you may have less consideration of all the information needed for your entry.
      In instances like this, overconfidence leads to glaring mental blind spots when you’re not aware of all the hazards that are waiting out in front of you.
      This is why you should cover your balance and just do ONE GOOD TRADE ONE GOOD TRADE ONE GOOD TRADE .

    It's about your mindset and your trading process if it has an edge. Once you have a proven edge, the implementation of that edge by refining your trading process is what could make you an elite 8 figure a year trader is the message I get from Mike. I believe that is how anyone in anything becomes elite, not focusing on the result when you're in flow. If you're not doing what he says, you're failing to think in probability which will take away from your trading edge if you have it.
    Thank you SMB for all you do!

    People say that 99% of trades fail.. it's because 99% of all traders just focus on getting rich quick, they want the "Lambo money" but they can't even make one good trade.. You trade a strategy, then the money follows.

    For me one good trade is to complete a thorough and exhaustive analysis that only leaves a high probability outcome with proper risks and protections. Sometimes it's tempting to take the easier slothful route and skim the thorough research. Done that. Win rate goes up significantly when adherence to prudence.

    • @extremeencounter7458
      @extremeencounter7458 5 місяців тому

      Missed the point. The point is that you followed the rule set properly, that you didn’t take any unnecessary risks, that you had a good stop loss and take profit. That’s it. Many times that perfect setup doesn’t hit, that’s the game. Just because you lost on the trade doesn’t mean you did bad, but you can gamble on a trade, hit it, and have traded poorly.

      I think what he is saying is, not to focus on your PnL , instead focus on managing the trade, where should I enter, what's my risk, where should I exit. Do I have a set up and a thesis. Then the results will come, if you have edge . One Good trade after another, rinse and repeat.

      @@Leytonstone09 That’s not what it says to me.. One Good trade sounds like you are trying to catch a lucky break.. That one banger! If you don’t have a strategy that includes risk management then you don’t plan to be trading very long.. Not only should you pay attention to PnL but you should track it daily, monthly, however often you trade and study your performance. How do you know how effective your strategy is if you don’t keep track of it. What is your win percentage? You can’t tell me because you are just focused on making one good trade… I hear you.. but I stand by what I said.

      @Leytonstone09 Рік тому +2

      @@ATLJB86 from my perspective it means don't let your PnL and psychology that goes with it, dictate how you should manage your trade. You should of course always know your risk and follow your rules for managing the trade. But also have reasons to hold and reasons to exit based on how the trade is working or not, separate to whether you made your "5000$" for the day for example. Yes stats on PnL are important and can (among other things) form a bigger picture view of what is working for you and what isn't. Not relying on lucky breaks, ever, but they can be a part of your trading. Bella's book "one good trade" explains it better than I can in a tweet.
