Beginning the trading journey

I thought you will even say try and be taking pictures of your charts to create a trading journal which you can look back on in a couple of years and appreciate how far you have come.

getting into trading is serious business its not about taking selfies and there is only a 5% chance you will make it to steady profitability

Facts bro 💯 This is the advice I wish someone gave me early.

Document the struggle now so the win hits different later.

In 3 years you’ll look back at those messy charts + tired eyes and smile.

Beginning your trading journey requires details understanding the fundamentals, utilizing paper trading to practice without financial risk, and developing a risk management strategy. Trading requires a long-term mindset and should be approached as a business rather than a get-rich-quick syndrome, be ready to loss, have an open mind to let go of any hit.

I don’t think that timeframe is really realistic. Even after three years, there’s still a chance he could be struggling. Profitability in trading goes far beyond charts, screens, and available tools.

My honest advice is that he should first learn to master himself. Trading has a way of revealing who you truly are—it exposes your habits, emotions, and discipline. Without actively working on self-improvement, consistent results will remain difficult, no matter how many years are spent in the market.

I agree with you but all am saying is that journaling helps you look back at previous mistakes and you will know how to avoid them

Yeah, I totally get you now.

It's okay I understand

Anonymous traders can't relate

I did documentary doe not all but few struggles

That's why websites like this one and forex factory are great, they allow you document your process online so that in future you can look back and smile

Yes throw back is goated

You can still do your documentary using your tablets or your trading devices yesterday I was checking my documentary on the previous trades I took on USDCAD on the 29th April and the eurusd trade I took on the 27th April I sold Eurusd on the 27th April after a sweep of London session at 1.17506 then broke the internal support level at 1.17386 and when the candle closed with a full body I entered at same 1.17386 and sold to the next low at 1.16783 , then for the usdcad at 29th April sold after a sweep same London session at 1.36972 then waited for price to break below the the support level at 1.36716 then waited for price to retrace back and I entered short at 1.36881 held to next low at 1.35984, so journaling your trades is really good just take a screenshot of it and save it both the wins and loss
