Imperfect Trader

Not sure what this is but look like a new prop by well-know traders in the industry. Great to see more competition & development rolling out. To a better future, good luck with the upcoming launch! 🙏❤️

CFTC, FCA? Better Call NasDaily 😂

I'm pretty tired as my trading is so tilted & I'm following advice of redpill to go dark & reflect as he's one of people I respected the most. Somehow TFT refund issue came up and tagged me everywhere again. I don't know what the F is going on tbh. Some of the Vietnamese now starting to give rumors about me on forums saying I'm declining to say I'm from Vietnam just to get the refund. For fuck sake this is fucking too much even for me. The toxicity of the space and from my own country is out of hand. This is exactly why I don't bother to spam & try to use my following to tag any CEO or firm. Even my tweet about TFT, I didn't even bother to tag anyone lol. One guy asked Am I Vietnamese, I answered NO in pure Vietnamese, bro failed to get the joke and pissed. I got the refund. I didn't even want to post as I said to one of my friends, people will start another chain of drama from this "influencer only". I followed instructions, sent my order details to mod on Discord once, never pushed, never spam, the tweet later on somehow got viral & I got refunded after around 10 days of waiting. I believed the tweet created a certain impact for any trader who are in queue for the refund as well. I guess not everyone see it that way. I don't wake up one day and have followers And I don't consider these are followers They're my friends, you motherfucker. I'm Vietnamese and I love Vietnamese food. Give me a break lol 😂 Until the next meme, see ya! Imperfect Trader

Bitcoin may drop? That's not scary at all. What truly scary is how people are trying to call top everyday and after 20 times finally they made it, they will keep repost that screenshot with precise entry for another decade & keep flash sale their mentorship 😄 Be safe!

After 70 days, I failed my attempt phase 1 of 2.7M in funding challenges using trade copier FXIFY$400,000 - Failed FTMO$400,000 - Failed FundedEngineer$500,000 - Failed Fundednext$300,000 - Failed MyFundedFx$300,000 - Failed SFT$400,000 - Failed It's probably the hardest thing I ever done in my life, trading, travelling, recording, editing, doing everything by myself, trying to create a certain impact even though I was fully aware that I may not be ready for it. I lived, I learned, I experienced so many ups and downs during the process. A lot of aha moments in every aspects of my entire existence. Talking about trading, it only means one thing, I'm not good and I need to work harder. Noone will take lessons or wisdoms from a failed trader, that's why I won't include what I have get from this experience.... I will bring my trading back to private & let results do its job later on. Talking about the series itself, 9 episodes, it's a masterpiece to myself & an achievement for me this year, not in term of PnL surely lol but in term of everything and I mean it. + Reading & responding all comments + Recording every single execution & edit & relive that winning/losing days over and over and over. + Trying hard to public everything though sometimes these trading days are shitty performance. It clicked a lot within, it's a fact. Now it's my turn to turn it into something beautiful, meaningful & successful for myself. Only me doing everything, only me witnessed everything, only me seeing how people reacted on my win/loss and only me seeing how I reacted to the way people reacted..... This series is the deepest introspection I have ever done. I wish I can tell you more, but there are things only the one who seeks will understand. I don't think I can convey all the beautiful experience & realizations I got during this journey in text. Only thing I want to say is, be you, do things you believe in & don't be afraid to be vulnerable. Be a master on the chart, but don't forget to be mindful within off-chart moments as well. Don't worry, I always bounce back. I'm a stubborn mf. Love & Gratitude Imperfect Trader

Me thinking long term after CPI last night

Now everytime I do backtesting, I tried really hard to get back from every drawdown & trade by looking at my equity curve as well as I want to make it smooth & stable. This is one of the largest & the best backtest I ran. I faced a very tough month in April but managed to overcome that deep drawdown and losing streaks, then the curve continue with winning streaks. Unfortunately in June, after reaching 500 trades sample size, the test faced extreme losing streaks twice leading to more than -20R lost from the peak. I literally failed at 563 trades for this run. It took me quite a lot of time for this, but I will suggest you do as many reps as you can. This backtest gave me these insights: + Even I don't want to, 563 trades, 563 times I tried to manage trades. This gave a boost in my skill and allowed me to see some things I never did. + Backtesting doesn't include emotion, not in my case. I do want it bad enough now, so yes I do feel emotions losing this even it's backtest. It's not about the results, it's about the skillset and apparently I'm not good enough. So yeah I do feel emotions. +Trying to overcome drawdown, solving a losing streaks & smoothen the equity curve. It's like a game, a business where you get better each time you tried to do it. Yeah even it's backtest, it does build your confidence if you put enough time & take it seriously. +There are levels in this game, the more I backtested, the more I see deeper and deeper even it's the same patterns, same price actions but I gotta say that rep by rep by rep by rep, you're literally forcing yourself to see things that always there but you never noticed. For someone extremely hated backtesting like me, Fxreplay really changed the game and if I ever got success in this path. I'm forever grateful for this platform tbh. Putting yourself out there, being vulnerable, showing losses, taking shitty comments back to back, people love seeing you fail bla bla bla. It's wild, but I'm glad I did walk long enough so that the right people found me and loved me for who I am. I will keep going, hopefully long enough so that I can find a sugar mama to sponsor me to quit trading 😂 Take care ❤️ Love & Gratitude Imperfect Trader

I'm banned at TheFundedTrader as they banned Vietnam. So on the next episode of the Youtube series, you won't see it in the trade copier anymore. The account has been disabled already. I received the email and it seems like they won't refund trader who traded on challenge for longer than 60 days. So it's -1k6 lost for 400k account purchase. Prop firm is high risk at this point, this is why I always say only buy challenge you can afford to lose. Nothing is guaranteed. TFT based on the trade copier after 208 trades, honestly to say that it outperformed a lot of others. If you are about to buy challenge there, Purpletrading is highly recommend. I didn't have problem with TFT, but I do see the weird things of not refunding people who took their time to pass the challenge. This reminded me that "unlimited time" has its up and down as well at the end. I will continue trading at others prop firms but after this series, properly I will size down on prop & backtest more to be able to size up on my personal trading again. As someone from most banned country, it's getting harder and harder. I'm not really keeping up with all prop updates. I'm more focused into my trading more than ever. Take this post as an update, then take care & stay safe for your future choices. I will keep going as usual. Love & Gratitude Imperfect Trader

Still practice, try to overcome all the dd with correct risk management & keep going to increase the sample size. For every 100% profits, I size up and keep going. Real conditions with fees and slippage may cause variations, but the skill remain the same.

Despite prop bad news, I'm spending hours and hours backtesting & sharpening my edge. At the end, it's the skillset that matters. Noone can take that away from you.

Getting bitten by radioactive spider will turn you into spiderman You want to be profitable trader, you know what to do 😉

+ Time + High/Low + FVG + Seasonal Tendency + Sessions High/Low + Daily/Weekly/Monthly High & Low + Midpoint/Mean Threshold/50% Level in everything + O/H/L/C + Directional Bias (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) + Have a target/draw on where price is heading & building a bridge, seek for your entry model & attack. That's some of the things I got from studying ICT videos since he's less than 50k or 100k subs, couldn't remember exactly. Before ICT, none of the mentors I studied break down chart with classic things like that. Up until now, though I don't watch any of his 2023 videos, I still use these things to build up, test & work on my chart. It makes thing so much more simpler & enjoyable. I'm for sure grateful for his teaching. I don't know who is the first this first that, all I care is ICT is the one reminded me about things always on the chart but I never never even bother to look at. You can see things I mentioned are quite basic elements that always there. I don't mention big words, I don't mention with the attitude like I know all because I don't. Don't let the noise get into your head, even it does, observe & move on, get back to our path & keep going. Life is too short for BS. Love & Gratitude Imperfect Trader

How to trade NFP this week - Like A Pro

youtu.be/7gUh8j5ui0o?si=H9h3… A lot of our impulsiveness could be resolved by life appreciations Another masterpiece 🙏❤️

Everytime I saw someone got into scandals or or this or that. I just dig into their contents to see if I could find something that resonate & work for me. Then I moved on 😄. Sometimes I learned, sometimes I got gems, sometimes I got entertained ☺️ Don't let outside noise destroy your inner peace

😄 Long time no crypto, playing it a little bit this weekend.

It's better to be alone than to feel powerless in someone's world

Got enough footages for living & inspirations Got enough time off with wife & explored Bali all West, South, East and grow together. Time to get back to normal life & family. I will train and come back for the bigger mountains & bigger experience. Life is short, make it counts. Easy to say, but really, make it count. It's your life, it's your experience, don't ever make decision to satisfy others even it's someone within the family tree. 2008, I dropped out of high school after I lost someone I loved. Everyone in my family doubted me, society looked at me as a failure of the system & I always felt empty even I had 6 figures in my bank account as a teenager. I never feel like I belong to this world, I never feel like I could be happy and secured, all money was just luck, I always fear I will never able to make it back if I lost it. Long story short, I lost it and made it back multiple times. Few people later came to my life, the ones that hug me like there is no tomorrow. The ones that treasure me for who I am. The ones that love me even sometimes my joke failed hard lol..... If you're born with a loving & supportive family all around. You're fucking lucky, be grateful everyday! If you're surrounding with negativities & BS and poor beliefs forcing you how to live your life. Always believe that NOONE is born to be alone in this world. You will be loved and you will love. Time, it will take time, but trust the process. While waiting for things to unfold, keep training & grow & transform yourself and most importantly, love yourself first.
