Excellent video man 👌 and i loved the part you explaining how to fix this issues ❤🏆 I could overcome all this issues at least 80 - 90 % of the time. my new issue now when im in a good trade i take profits too early. Like often i close my trade at 1R or 1.5R and i knew it would run for 4R or 5R but i keep closing too early.

Sounds like you're a pro at identifying good trades, just need to work on your exit strategy! Patience is key in trading - let those winners run!

What If you dont take profit at 1.5R and it hit back your SL, turn your position from win 1.5 to lose 1R?

Loving your videos Bernd. You are a credit to the industry. May I ask how you lose so little on these trades with the large positions you take? I can only assume you are scaling in as each trade confirms? Only getting stopped out on very small starter positions when wrong? Much appreciated.

Thanks for covering this very important subject! Revenge and fomo trading are my biggest weakneses. I've come to understand that the cure for both of my biggest problems is moving away from the smaller time frames and spending less time by the screens. Hence why I'm your new subscriber. Trading require the top level mental game and scalping require even more of that. I'm already using using supply and demand and higher time frames are also higher prbability trades when it comes to S & D. Spending less time looking at the charts gives healthier point of view and helps with making better decisions.

[@berndskorupinski]

Revenge and FOMO trading are like the villains in the trading world! Good thing you're taking steps to outsmart them.

[@jayleo4554]

Epic content Bernd, it’s a relief to be able to learn form the real deal. Would you consider creating a low tier access program for your campus giving limited access for a cheaper price? Maybe something like a subscription, or an instalment-based protocol? It might be a good way to reach more people who want to learn form you, but are unable to pay the full 5k all at once. With what they learn in the limited access, they may be able to generate the funds to purchase more of your services. Just a thought, as I would love to join, just not able to shell out the full 5k right now

[@berndskorupinski]

You can pay in up to 10 monthly installments. Limited content doesn't make any sense, I tell you why: We are a licensed investment consultancy regulated and authorized by the UAE government. We have our office in one of the most iconic buildings in Dubai, at the Opus by Omniyat. We have nowadays more than 20 employees, including 5 mentors. We have our own ecosystem with a social trading app in the Apple App Store in the Finance section. All our memberships are LIFETIME MEMBERSHIPS, which means you have access to our Campus for the rest of your life. This includes 4 hours of DAILY live trading sessions with various mentors. Everything live and recorded. Even on the weekend I personally do live trading sessions. We have more than 80 hours course material including strategy building on all-asset mastery (stocks, forex, futures course). We have daily signal service on more than 20 markets. And a community chat for our students. On top you get access to our proprietary indicators! We are a real business, legal academy, no dodgy signal telegram group.

[@jayleo4554]

@@berndskorupinski That’s awesome that you have the instalment protocol in place bro! It opens up the opportunity for even more potential members like myself! I have no doubt about the legitimacy of your business trust me, I wouldn’t even have taken the time out to comment if I thought otherwise. I can see you’re the real deal and have the results to back it up! Appreciate what you’re doing for the community, will be scheduling my consultation call very soon!

[@CRS_FX]

I find it best with those most volatile 1-2hours after NYSE open also, loving it for office/daytrading. Pretty much all You need with 1 trade per day, if any at all, assuming You wanna/can trade more frequently. But still some days just should be skipped cause theres most likely no setup represented anyway, knowing when to stay off sides is as important. Based off years of experience - more hours (2h+) gets counterproductive as our focus is kinda limited especially when dealing with $$. Its good way to think of it as a Sniper with limited bullets indeed, You wanna be only involved when theres best conditions for it set up.

[@berndskorupinski]

It's great to hear that you have found a trading strategy that works well for you!
