Trading Reflection: Embracing Low-Risk, Low-Stress TradingWould you risk $266.38 for a potential return of $757.23? That's the kind of trade setup I'm focusing on these days. My Trading Philosophy Over my 19 years of trading experience, I've encountered many "trading gurus" who claim that achieving a profit factor of 2 is impossible—that it's merely a textbook scenario and unrealistic. I chose to keep my thoughts to myself, but their perspective revealed a lot about their trading approach: 1. Constant Break-Evens and Overtrading: Chasing big wins often leads to overtrading and settling for break-even results, reminiscing about those rare "good feelings" when trades went their way. 2. High-Stress Environment: They operate under constant stress, obsessing over being "right," frequently intervening in trades, and deviating from their trade plans—all justified by their years in the industry. Finding What Works for You There are countless ways to trade, and results will vary depending on your strategy. Personally, I prefer a method that allows me to: - Spend Just 15 Minutes a Day: I review my trading pairs, set alerts, and let the market notify me when it's time to act. - Use Candlestick Confirmations: I decide whether to engage in a trade based on candlestick patterns at my predetermined entry points. This approach ensures my profit factor for the final target is always at least 2—often even higher. Mathematically, I can be profitable with only a 40% accuracy rate. This allows me to seek trades with high returns and live my life freely for the rest of the day. Current Trade Idea: Bearish Crab Pattern I'm eyeing a Bearish Crab Pattern on the 15-minute chart. It might not be picture-perfect, but it offers a profit factor of 2, and I have RSI divergence supporting my idea. Trade Management - Once the market touches 164.02 or breaks and closes below 164.21 , I'll shift my stop to the entry price to attain a risk-free trade. - Remember to include our stop-loss buffer when setting your stops. Final Thoughts Trading doesn't have to be high-risk or high-stress. It's about choosing a strategy that aligns with your goals and lifestyle. Whether you prefer a fast-paced environment or a more relaxed approach, the choice is yours. What's your trading style? Do you prioritise low-risk, low-stress strategies, or do you thrive in the thrill of the fast-paced markets? Share your thoughts and experiences below! Stay patient, trade wisely, and happy trading! 🚀

It seems like the Australian dollar may have a bearish movement for the next couple of hours. If you have been following, you should know I don't usually trade on the M15 chart, but this one has an upsize trade component. What is an upsize trade?

Potential Short Opportunity on Bearish PatternsDespite GBPUSD demonstrating a Weaker Bull Trading setup, my analysis suggests a more bullish outlook compared to EURUSD. However, I'm currently eyeing a shorting opportunity on a lower timeframe. The emergence of a Bearish Gartley Pattern retesting at 1.2752 or a completion of a Bearish Bat Pattern around 1.2803 appears promising for a potential short position.

Navigating the Bullish TrendBased on the Weekly Chart, GBPUSD is on a Bullish Trend, but that doesn't mean we can't look for a shorting opportunity.

I'm waiting for the market retest back to 1.2245 for a shorting opportunity. If things go well, I might stretch my final target to the Bullish Shark Pattern completion on the Daily Chart at 1.1937. Just wanted to keep you in the loop. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Earning both waysTo be successful in trading, you can be a Casanova. This means you need not be loyal to your trade. You can buy GBPUSD during breakfast and sell it by lunch. That will be my trade plan for this week. GBPUSD on the 1-hourly chart(left). I'm waiting to buy on the blue line(1.2202) and short on the right line(1.2277). On the blue line, I'm waiting for the retest that will almost guarantee an RSI Divergence, and on the red line, it coincides with the 4-hourly chart(right) of a potential Head and Shoulders formation.

I told you so...This is 1 crazy trade that we did on 22 Feb 23 (links within the TradingView Post). If you have been following us for years, you would agree that my interest in sharing LIVE analysis than to show how much I had earned in a trade. That is because I do not find how that could benefit you. With that said, the purpose of my sharing my analysis as it is; is to show you the thought process of how traders react at every turn. Currently, we are 40pips away from our target of 0.6688(+219pips), which gives us a profit factor of 8.11. That means for every $1 we risk, my potential profit is $8.11. That means even with a 20% accuracy rate by setting every loss at -50pips, my net profits in pips is 411pips. This significantly reduces the level of stress when we trade and give us more time to do the things we love to do. In an unlikely scenario that the market retests back to 0.6786 would allow traders to consider if they would hop on the latest trade with their first target points to the recent low on the 1-hourly chart. In this example, that would be 0.6721, giving the First Target a 65pips profit potential. I would recommend having good risk management and planning your own trade, and not following the trade blindly.

GBPUSD - High Risk TradeWell, this is not your typical high risk trade, but this is the cliche setup that I'll shout, "High Risk, High Return!" Let me explain why this trading setup is High Risk. The candlestick did went beyond the PRZ, in layman term the price confirmation zone mark as red rectangle. It touches Point X but didn't violate it(close above X). The chances of this trade get stopped out is high but the stop-loss that is base on the usual stop-loss level is much lower and this is a potential combo trade aka upsize trade. Which means more than 2 as my profit factor for this trade is 💯 true for my final target

OMG! Did I miss a trade?OMG! I was doing a qualifying call, and I might have missed the trade! And this is why I don't usually trade off the 15-minutes chart. From my experience, this trade is gone, but a retest on 128.98 happens; it is a great second-chance entry. 2 Economic Data to take note On 18Jan23(GMT+8) Tentative(usually before 3pm) JPY - BOJ Outlook Report JPY - Monetary Policy Statement JPY - BOJ Press Conference 9.30pm(GMT+8) US Core Retail Sales US PPI In any case, by the time the economic data is released, you should have achieved Target1 Profits.
