Patient and Disciplined but lost 5 trades in a row - help?
Reaching out to the group for some help and feedback...I've been patient (not over trading, not taking trades in non-plan areas) and have only taken trades that meet my criteria yet I have taken 5 losses in a row over the past two days. Another positive: my position sizing has been small enough that I'm not yet at risk of losing my accounts. But, 5 losses in a row just sucks - it undermines my patience, since a bunch of losses in a row reduces my confidence that the strategy will *eventually* work. Help? Anyone been in this position before and recovered to be profitable? How did you recover? Is the answer simply more and more back testing?

@Matthew Marcetich I try my best to stick to a max of three trades a day if they present themselves, which is rare. Win 2 done for the day. Lose two done for the day. One win one loss then I only take a third risking half my profits so I stay green. After two loses it usually means it's not your day and can lead to rushing into trades. You won't always win everyday sticking to this plan reduces risk and only takes one win to make up for a while losing day, if you are getting at least a 2-1.
Superman time frame
What timeframe is everyone using for superman entries? I know Kyle says 5 min, but in his indicator video he looks at 1 min. Curious what people use.

I have found 1 min to be better so far as well, Same thing where the 5 min has me miss trades. Passed two new evals today using the 1 min between ES and gold. I also have the luxalgo order blocks and breaker blocks indicator that I turn on when I go to the 30, 15, 5, and 1 min time frames for more confirmation. At the 1 min time frame is basically is an superman entry indicator.

@Tim Morton yeah I have been. I have found the 1 minute has worked the best so far and what I am currently doing. Just curious what others are doing.
Talk me off the ledge. I'm ready to jump into a EA after this week.
Go ahead and hit me with the hard realities because I might need to hear them. I would guess I've spent between 2 - 5 hours making supply and demand zones on the replay, but I only have about a dozen practice trades in. I know in the grand scheme of things this isn't a lot of money, but I've made about $1500 profit this week off of my paper trades, sticking to the 2:1 Risk Reward ballpark. If I already had a PA and could take some of that profit it would actually make a noticeable impact on my family's lifestyle. How did you all decide when you were ready start trying on EA's? The $30 ish cost for an Apex EA isn't a big deal if I blow the account right away and lose the $30. I know I have room to get more comfortable with the whole charting and setting up entries, but at the same time, what I did this week is truly an impactful amount of money. Can't thank Kyle enough for teaching this incredible skill, and also this group for consistent, well meaning feedback.

@Jonathan Hutchins depends on the size of the account. 25k is 1500 trailing drawdown. Which is basically really losses but then also missed profits. So if your first trade got to 400$ profit but you never closed and you closed the trade break even then that $400 is deducted so now you would have 1100$ left to lose.

@Curtis Hansen you will fail some EAs. If you do enough. They make them hard to pass for a reason. They make tons of money on them. You should know it will happen and it's ok. As long as you did things the way you know you should then you just try again. Get a PA account and build a big buffer before taking payouts so you can have those bad weeks and be ok. Then when you have those great weeks you take the cash and still have the buffer.
One of the coolest trading experiences!

@Kyle Henris late to game but I am interested
ES traps and entries
How has everyone been trading ES recently? The choppy nature lately has been doing a lot of traps. It seems demand zones hold true but only after a 2-10 point trap underneath them which is typical of failed breakouts. Using the Jedi entry will often get you stopped out unless you enter after the trapping lows occur first and then enter as it's exiting. I have not had enough time to look at the superman entry to really understand it, but I would suspect that is the way to enter with these traps going on. Curious in everyone's thoughts and what they have been doing that is working?

So how do you enter? Wait for the the trap do go below the demand zone then enter as it leaves?

Through limited back testing it looks like if you create the demand zone on the 1 hour long wicks (trapping part of the failed breakdown) instead of the red candle it gives much better chances of catching it instead of being stopped out. Will have to look at this further back but in the bull flag we are in that appears to be the case. Curious to look back to more trending times to see if that still applies.
