Glad we are on the same page now lol

if the historical data supports the idea
- I do not look at History or do any historical statistical analysis or stare/analyze charts looking for patterns (either recurring more frequently or trying to find some unique secret pattern etc). This is the only way I found to avoid biases resulting in curve fitting. That is the reason why I run my replays with only one fat bar on the chart and believe me, it is time consuming and I have run atleast 5000+ replays primarily focused only on NQ. Started little bit of ES this year. Before Denali came out, I was working on only couple months of replays data with CQG and that really sucked. As I said, this journey has been cyclic with bouts of intermittent success but nothing glorifying to share without consistency. As they say, making money is the easy part. keeping your winnings has been the most difficult part in my trading endeavors. That is why whatever I see on the net does not impress me at all unless I see a consistent record of performance (which, sadly, no one wants to disclose to gain credibility as step1). Just like you, even I have been dabbling in stocks since 1998 and spot forex crap from 2010-2015 and futures from 2018-till date and I can happily share that I have made several million in profits just to give it all back lol.

The only way, in my experience, to not lose your winnings is to stop trading at the high watermark for the given duration. I eventually got out at breakeven after wasting 5+ years in forex. Lets hope I am able to break this cycle with futures lol. Being an intraday swinger, every single strategy I have tried in futures has to come with a daily PnL stop at session close i.e. forcing me to exit losers and keep my daily profits. It's my key requirement to control greed/fear. No matter what anybody says, this sh*t is not easy... simple for sure but not at all easy to generate income solely from trading consistently year after year.
Anyways, I have shared enough about me :-(
