What am I missing?
-
About 4 am this morning I’m wide awake - started thinking about what I have done trading wise that’s helped and that I could share with you guys…. my learnings and lightbulb moments over the years.
One of them is me asking myself this Q....
What am I missing here?
Nope, not sleep lol I have this set on my calendar as a 3 month recurring meeting with myself think of it like a task.
With the sole aim to look at my trading and ask what am I missing here? Not always in terms of profit either this can come in the form of many things, it might be the market I am trading on, it might be the results are showing a certain trend, there’s been a whole host of things that have come up - some have been really obvious like I have 500 results on a strategy but the SR isn’t that great but the profit has been solid for 5 months.
There’s been others like why am I not wanting to do the LTD when its been profitable every season for me?
It’s powerful thinking time, that gets me away from everything but the sole goal of looking at my trading thinking what am I missing here? The reason I also do it every 3 months is to allow time for things to develop. Anyways enough of my ramblings, hopefully its helped!

@ryan-carruthers ah gotcha

@darri you asked if I would be keeping an update on this as a blog - I was answering saying that all the other things I produce as prt of btc and have over the years is my blog.
I might have to look through some of the older posts and do a round up as it’s been a bloody long time now.

@ryan-carruthers said in What am I missing?:

@darri not sure the youtube/podcast/blog and this site etc... is more of my ongoing thoughts as well as a few other things we’ve got planned.
Note: this was just a thought that came to me and wanted to share with the community.

@ryan-carruthers ah righto, nah it was just i wasnt sure if the question was asking us what your missing on a certain strategy and just wanted people to look at or if this was a tagline for users in future to use this thread about this 3 month reflection. or this this a personal blog your going to recur on here?

I was pre caffeinated here - need to re read this and check. @Darri What don't you understand?
Nope, not asking for a second opinion - I put the time aside myself to ask myself what am I missing myself, I've found that giving myself thinking time has been the biggest impact in my trading, often times there's things right in front of us that we miss when we are in the day to day trading grind.

i dont understand are you asking for a second opinion on your trading? or is there a follow up post to this?
