What is one recommendation and one thing to avoid?
Hey everybody - new to trading and I'm still working through the classroom work and finding it helpful. I did want to ask - what is one thing you wish you had known to do and one thing you wish you knew to avoid when you started trading? Thanks!

My biggest recommendation to you would be to not skip anything in the course related to mindset. Mindset is usually the thing that stops people from succeeding and it's something pretty much everyone struggles with. It's usually what requires the most amount of work, at least for me. Avoid rushing. I did backtesting for a month before and then did a week of live paper trading before jumping into an eval account. I passed my first eval, got a PA, and then lost that PA. When I looked back at the trades that led me to lose that PA, I realized that I still needed more practice and that there was so much more to learn. Don't rush the process.
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 kept missing moves on the 5min time frame and found that when I drop to the 1 min I have a better chance of catching the move. That's just what has worked for me. However, I've adjusted it so that I create a 1 hr zone and then look for a 15-minute zone inside of the 1 hr zone. I only look for a 1 min entry if price is inside where those zones overlap. I hope that makes sense!

@Neil Angeles I typically aim for 1:4 risk/reward but will go higher than that if there's an opportunity. My win rate is around 35%, so the higher reward still allows me to make money even though my win rate is low.
Ruined myself yet again
Well, just blew my other 4 PAs in one day after working hard to get them all above 3k in profits. That's 11 PAs I've Killed, it seems I have no problem passing EAs, and no problem getting PAs above the payout threshold. But somehow, someway I always manage to self sabotage and lose it all picking just the exact wrong days and times to get eaten alive in the whipsaws of consolidation patterns. I know exactly what I'm supposed to do, and what I'm not supposed to do, I can explain in detail how to trade, and how the market works, but when it really counts, I can never stop myself from doing exactly what I'm not supposed to do. I'm calling it a day, taking a hiatus from trading, may return, may not. Ive given away $2000 to Apex at this point with nothing to show for it. Think I'm just gonna stick with my career that pays me 130k a year, and just be content with being an RN, as I see no way that I'm ever going to make more than that as a trader. It's been a fun and informative 6 years in the trading world, but it's not good for me or my mental health, or my finances. Best of luck to you all. I hope you become the trader that you want to be.

You've been such an awesome person in this group and it'll be a shame to see you step back. Rough days can be hard to deal with. Please remember to be kind to yourself. I hope to see you back soon!
I'll Tell You Mine If You Tell Me Yours
What is the biggest thing that you struggle with when it comes to trading? For me, it's my emotions. I'm a "wear my heart on my sleeve, open-book" kind of guy. Always have been. Even with trading, I still have emotions. Small secret - Kyle does too. Losing a trade isn't fun. Even after years of doing this and knowing that we're going to lose, it still doesn't feel good. Same goes with winning...I still give a subtle Tiger Woods fist pump after a nice 4:1 winner 😂 The secret sauce isn't in not having emotions though...THE SECRET IS BEING ABLE TO IDENTIFY THAT YOU'RE HAVING AN EMOTIONAL REACTION AND NOT LETTING IT IMPACT YOUR DECISION MAKING. Kyle has mastered this. Over time, I've been able to get a handle on it as well, but it is still something that I have to remind myself of every morning before I start looking at charts. WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER and we're here to help. So tell me.... What's your biggest trading struggle?

My biggest problem is revenge trading by far. Once I have a trade set, I can manage my emotions and let the trade play out. But if I have a losing trade, I have a tendency to look for any trade I can get in instead of waiting for the right setup. Going forward, once I have a losing trade, I plan to step away from the computer until I can get my head back in the game and hopefully that'll help...
Super frustrating...
This trade was unbelievably frustrating!! I'm sure some of you can sympathize. It BARELY touched my stop loss (I had it set to the top of my entry candle, not one tick more) and then went on to what would have been a win. On the bright side, I predicted the move correctly. Risk/reward ratio: 1/4.63 I waited until price entered 1 hr supply and then into a 15 min supply inside the 1 hr supply. Then I dropped down to 1 min timeframe for a Superman entry. It would have been a killer trade... if only 😩 Anyone else have that one frustrating trade?
