    It’s like becoming a doctor, many people start pre-med and medical school, but only a tiny fraction of them succeed and actually become doctors.

    One of the things I learned from my own over trading episodes was that I need to be prepared to miss some mediocre possible entries that result in profits to get the chance to get in on the really good ones. It took me a while to realize that waiting for the best setups was essentially a filter for bad/mediocre trades and that any filter effective at filtering out losses is going to filter out a few winners too, but usually not the biggest winners and I now miss more losers than winners, the average win is generally bigger, and my overall win rate has gone from 48% to 55%. Trading also seems a lot less busy now.

    Trade exposure is a topic that is EXTREMELY under discussed but it all boils back down to patience. If you are taking 10 trades a month. All high prob set ups and they lose. On 1% risk the most you lose is 10% that month. But if you take 20,30,50 trades a month. Your going to be way more down. It’s always better to be selective and miss a set up then be at a -1. Cus just to be in profit again you need to make back that loss. + you’re going to do way more work. You can’t force the market. The market gives what it gives and you get what what you get. You force you will be more down then sitting out. And it’s down to you. To learn the easy way or learn the hard way

    Nick, that is brilliant and it is what I do now after I saw a video of you and one of your students (who only trades with real money but does well). I then thought what is better than nano trading for experience or when there is significant doubt. I then take the results and multiply by 2,000 to estimate results if I had taken a trade "all in" so to speak. I tell people if I can consistency make $1.40 for example on a nano trade, then I can make millions. I am only 6 months into this but I do for fun, relaxation and to distract me from my commercial real estate holdings. One of your videos convinced me to to try Forex and I am patiently gaining skills while a creep up on taking risk. THANK YOU!

      @@thewargenerals I didn’get big trades so far this month so my wins were scalpings/daytrades for around 2.1% of my account. Last week, specially on friday, i entered what i thought could be a couple of good trades at reasonable levels in Nasdaq and EurUsd. I set my goals and risk for each one and i lost them both as Nasdaq turn around for third consecutive day and EurUsd didn’t blink when falling through what i considered a support. I didn’t lose all my gains but it was a miserable end of the week. I’m still up 1.13% in DZero and 8.61% in my mini account.

How do you make millions of dollars over 5 years and 30k is your biggest win, and it JUST happened?

Once I get enough capital I'll set up a second small account that I can do this for. For some reason I hadn't considered using a small real account to do this.
