Been trading futures and crypto about 10 years. Micro futures and perps, Elliott Wave. Posting what I learn from my own trades, mostly the mistakes. Building a trading journal and looking for testers. Reply if you want in.

What's one trading habit you had to break the hard way?

Looking for a few more testers for my trading journal. If you trade futures or perps and actually want to track your trades, reply and I'll get you in.

If you built your own trading journal, what would it do?

Great morning session on my eval. 100 win rate for a session is not normal for me so don't think it is but I'm proud of this one.

Switched to limit orders for entries. Still getting used to missing trades that never come back to my price.

Elliott Wave question. When you're in a trade, how do you stop yourself from counting the waves the way you want them to go?

Looked back at my liquidations and they were all longs against the trend. Took me way too long to see that.

Working on my trading journal. Question for anyone who reviews their trades: do you tag your mistakes, or just write notes?

Still working on closing winners too early. Trade's going my way and I'm itching to lock it in. How do you guys sit in a winner?

Opening up a few more free tester spots for my trading journal. If you trade futures or perps and want one, like this and comment "in" and I'll reach out.

been building a trading journal. testers are using it right now what's the one thing you wish your journal tracked that it doesn't?

the maker vs taker thing took me way too long to actually get it's not about opening vs closing. it's whether your order adds liquidity or takes it market order = taker = higher fee. every time higher fee= no lambo WOmpWOmp

elliott wave people: when your count gets invalidated mid-trade, what do you do? recount and stay in, or just get out? asking for a friend

capping my leverage at 35x from here on, long gone are the days of 100x for me ill leave that for you young bucks

sunday night question for btc traders do you trust the weekend range going into monday, or do you basically ignore weekend price action?

went back through 90 days of my own trades. three things kept showing up: paying taker fees on entries going long against the trend closing winners before TP you gotta find your leaks

what cost you the most money
