So I forgot to post my results for the last 2 weeks (Week ending 01st September and 08th September). I'm honestly not sure why either which is the weird thing???
So the week ending the 01st was non eventful profit wise, but HUGE strategy wise! I followed my strategy completely on each and every day culminating on Friday which in my opinion was my single greatest day in trading, and only a 5 point profit to show for it. But it's not the destination, it's the journey. I know my strategy suffers in a trading range market and I can get whipsawed around, which I did. But I fully accepted this would happen and still took each and every signal without hesitation or emotion. For example, I was signalled into a trade which then turned against me, stopped me out, and resulted in a signal in the opposite direction. I took this only to be stopped out again. But none of this fazed me or had any influence on my mindset. I just took it all in and acknowledge that this is trading. The only issue is that one of my stops I placed too low (I still have no idea why so it was simply a lack of focus) which resulted in me being stopped out by 0.35 of a point. If not for this I would've booked a 16 point win instead of 5.
It was what I would class a pivotal week in my trading especially with regards to mindset.
