John from HSBC was stopping me from being successful years,🤣 great video Albie, people make money with the most simple strategies only if their mindset is on point with really healthy habits from routine, ASR etc. I do think the comparison game in this industry is what really hurts people, the guy getting 20k payout could also be 30k in debt from challenges due to being emotionally all over the shop. No shortcuts in this game, no matter how you look at price action 💎
John seems to have been getting everyone at some point mate don’t worry 😂 that’s it man absolute facts dude everything can seem great when looked through a one dimensional lens especially from those who only show highlight reels anyway. Abundance of opportunity if you yourself are in the right state of mind to take the opportunity and utilise it correctly. 💚
Hey Albie! Yet again another banger video … I hit it off a long time ago (2020), couple of ups and downs but I’m consistently profitable for two years now following plays from an industry expert NOT ICT concepts tho!
What’s your strategy? Lol! This is probably the most difficult thing I’ve ever done. I’ve been at it for a while now but my portfolio is a total disaster!
Trust me trading is not rocket science doing it with someone that’s well seasoned! With good analysis and a little forethought, you can save yourself the troubles of the market and still make good money I know for a fact.
I’d say I’m lucky enough to have help from a certified trading expert Christine Mila. She guides me in the fx and stock exchange market and her system’s been invaluable in my trading journey both mentally and financially. On the plus side, it affords me the luxury of quality time with my family. Real top notch I’ll say! 👍🏻
On May i took a prop challenge and passed it with one strategy i had tested for long. 1st week of June i went on a losing streak of -4% on the account. I panicked and changed my strategy. I lost the account by the end of the month. I backtested my original strategy and ralized i would've finished the month positive if i'd stuck with it. Last week i bought another challenge and promised myself to stick to my original strategy no matter what. I'm already up 7% in phase 1 in one week. I realized strategy hopping is one of the main reasons traders never find profitability.
See what you did here mate you took responsibility dropped your ego and took action watch how much you now grow because of this you got this dude keep on that one system and back yourself 🙏🏻
This is one of the best trading videos I've seen on TH-cam, I thought it was going to be another ICT bashing video or something but this is pure gold and I can relate to it very well. I recently backtested the trading strategy I used to get funded, because July was a bad month for me as well, and I found out that the strategy still works, during July I could've closed with 9+ RR if I prioritized daily bias over setup. So, it not the setup that is wrong most of the time, it's just you.
Appreciate you still watching it when you thought it could have been the standard bashing video never my intention to hate on anyone or anything simply just share some truths people need however getting there attention to listen is the hardest part haha. Love that man it’s us vs us 1% better provided we learn from the lessons given to us
100%, July has been horrible. Phase 1 passed in June in 3 days and the whole July is gone and I'm still stuck at -2% in phase 2 lol... But yea I played around with different things on the challenge account so probably it is also just me :D
@@ShadowInfest We all need to come together and figure out why July was bad because a lot of traders had bad month in July. Maybe there was something in the air that we caught 😂
Hey Albert! Yet again another absolutely fantastic video! I traded TPOT and gathered data for 2022 and 2023 accross EU and GU. The data was promising doing a consistent 2-5% a month. Then when i went to do 2021 the first 6 months was -10%. I guess these are the cons of trading such a mechanical system. It doesnt work in all market conditions. I took it on the chin and i'm now looking for a more consistent system which actually has longevity as opposed to just good performence for 2 years.
Hey mate that’s going to happen this is the thing intuition and discretion is always going to play a roll someway or another multiple pairs aren’t always a good idea when you have cross correlation like gu and eu make it work for you dude if it was as easy as follow this and you’ll make money everyone would be a billionaire
Man like John at HSBC ....i have to keep zooming out and reminding myself "if I was on a 400k or 500k or 1mill account, just a 3% a month...is mental" then remind myself to remove if and use 'When' a lot will backtest like a mother which is great, i found for me Forward testing first was the one that really helped as its realtime and you have to wait. do 3 months of forward testing, in and around your normal day and you soon find ways to improve, remove, refine or leave things alone and can see an accurate picture of what is possible
Exactly this sometimes looking through things with a blurry lens wipe the dirt off blinding you from the opportunity and think big and long term dude it’s just perspective always. Forward testing is very good takes longer but gives you real insights for sure
Support and resistance. Supply and demand still work well for me. I do like learning new things. I looked at several of hours of ICT. The way he looks at markets I found out I see some of the things the same way. It's all about knowing the strengths of the strategy and playing those.
You killed it with this one man! I have also found myself in 7-8% drawdowns and thought about giving up trading overall and my jumped from one thing to another. But now I have realized that the best approach is to go into monk mode and develop a personal strategy and never compare results with someone else
Just a bit. Some of his things aren't too shabby. One of them is kinda useful. More seriously, ICT's concepts are not a trading strategy, they are a collection of techniques and the theory of why Price is doing what it does. There are like 50 ways of confirming an entry. You certainly do not need to get good at more than one model to be able to trade.
bro seriously i was into same thing from last 2 month i didn't get any entry i was missing entries alot and my entry was not triggered so then i was annoyed so i started scrolling socials media and youtube i found people trading ict and making money passing prob fund challenge i was like should i change like i am trading mechanical strategy from photon so these things come to my mind i was wondering if someone can show me the right way and then your video came i really appreciated bro most important is just stick to your plan everything works 💪💞
Ayyy I’m glad it had the impact for you at the right time dude keep going you got this focus on improving the mindset and better understanding yourself
Ayy this is why I started this channel was to help and have some impact no matter how big or small as long as someone takes something away that’s what matters
man i needed to hear this! i am 2% down on July and it hurts to be on a losing streak... but u just reminded me that I have a great risk management and mindset skills, and ill get through it on August much love albie
Your videos and general messages are very realistic and relatable. It just makes a lot of sense. Since I changed my trading mentality and views, (thanks to reading books) I genuinely feel and act better and it reflects on my trading. I'm just so glad there's someone like you who I can resonate to. Most times listening to you talk is like reading my notes on trading and highlights from trading books. Keep doing what you're doing. You're making serious impacts. Hopefully one day we'll get to share thoughts and experiences in trading.
Great video thank you. Been in a funded challenge for nearly a year. (No time limit) It is frustrating, but i have to keep going. My problem is 99% mental/psychological.
Every true word spoken right there, pateince was the hardest thing for me but after 3 years have managed to achieve the discipline to control it. As you say albie it takes time. Great video full of facts, short, sharp and concise
Said it like it is, there's always going to be a degree of intuition in choosing which trade to take or not, a purely mechanical system sounds great, easily packaged and sold, but the edge is mostly your mindset. You will get out of drawdown Alb! most won't cos of the ego, including myself because of damn John at HSBC again lol 🤯
That’s it brother trading is a sole sport overall, everyone wants simple and easy however that dream can be miss sold, so much more to dig into with trading! No doubts dude appreciate you haha you got this tell John to piss off 😂😂
Rings true. My strategy doesn’t often show itself and while I’m not in the best financial position as a young person trying to escape this puts subconscious pressure on me wanting to achieve my goals now which leads to taking poor trades… An area highlighted in the video the point about large capital and taking the trade will use this moving forward 🙏
@@AlbertBurgess I started a no time limit challenge with trailing drawdown on March 1st, and I’m on +5% only risking 0.25-0.5%, but everyone passing challenges within days and getting pay outs makes you feel like a crap trader, so videos like this really do help 👍🏻👍🏻
I may also add that as another person here commented, I have also been backtesting TPOT following strict rules and I can tell you some months had a 8-9 losing streak trades 2020 february - march and also first quarter of 2021 - but at the end of the year it was profitable. It is hard to have that losing streak and being in 8-9% drawdown and not losing hope
- keep your losses small and wins big.... Ego is the enemy. Loved the video, majority of people trying to hop from strategy to strategy keep the uploads coming 🔥🔥
Bro I have a very bad message to you... Maybe this might be the last video I see from you, at least for the next 6 months or... So sad :( Just joking ;) Really great video! Don't compare yourself, don't rush anything, don't focus on money just on the process and progress you make. Learn from your mistakes and stick to one thing (slight adjustments are allowed) and as long as you have a good mindset you will be for sure at least BE always after you put in the work!!!
Seeing alot of people complain about draw down in July... same month i lost my funded account i was on a loosing streak till it got to my emotions so bad.. what flu did we catch in July?
Best Advice is take yourself offline. - Mate this has worked on my end like magic. Crazy how much you can grow in a small period of time when you only focus on you and you alone... You vs You at the end...
