I’ve said for years and years and years - trading is extremely risky, and most people will lose all the money they try to trade with - even the people who follow the information I provide. Trading is a skillset that is difficult to learn, and I make it look easy because I’ve been trading for 7+ years. As with any high performing skillset in life, trading is NOT easy.
Your likelihood of consistently making money trading is abysmally low, whether you learn on your own or whether you follow the things that myself or others teach.
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. The average success rate of trading is even worse that that! Becoming a doctor is obviously not for everyone, and becoming a trader is obviously not for everyone, too.

Awesome Content man ! Greetings from Black Forest Germany ;) I wonder what you do, when theres a Gap in the Market like Eur/Usd right now.. wan´t to try a doubleSetup Long/Short with stoplosses. Good Idea or Gambling ? Have a nice week man !

I just came across this channel now! Thanks for making all this simple. So many guru channels that you can watch, watch and re-watch without really learning anything. I mean you end up more confused than before you watched the video. Please help us keep making it simple so new traders can benefit. Thanks again. Liked and subbed !

[@rg950]

no i'm not a bot. How bad is it to add to a losing trade if it goes against you to try and break even on it. for example i buy at 100, price goes to 95, i buy again. thoughts?

[@raphaeldeguzman7417]

That pattern works though

[@leandrogoethals6599]

@@rg950 something a bot would say hmmm...(joke)

[@User-ok8sv]

@@rg950 I lost so much money doing that in the past. Sometimes the stock has completely reversed from a downtrend to an uptrend and I'll still be forcing it back to the price it left which it will never get back to. So, adding to a losing trade means you definitely have to know that the stock MUST get back to that price. otherwise, just cut your losses. Assuming I shorted NVDIA when it crashed down to $600. Some were saying it was going to crash further ot $400. Then NVDA reversed and headed back to $1,300 which is where we are now. Assuming I kept adding to that short, I would be wrecked by now.

With trading, technical analysis skills alone are not enough; discipline and emotional maturity are also crucial for success. The saying "time in the market vs. timing the market" is a good mindset to have during market fluctuations. Thanks to Linda Wilburn’s insights, daily trade signals, and my dedication to learning, I've been increasing my daily earnings. Keep it up!

The key to financial stability is having the right investment suggestions for a diverse portfolio. Many investment failures and losses happen when you invest without proper guidance.

It was quite challenging to understand the different trends on my own until i found out about Wilburn. Trading made easy.

[@wootymcwoot8749]

Saw your last vid about trading overextended markets and started using it as my basis. I use a RSI scanner for oversold or overbought market conditions and look for good setups. Easy wins.

[@midnite1235]

Do you use a 14 day RSI? Thanx!!!

[@raphaeldeguzman7417]

Curious how you do it? Here's my hypothesis on how, though. 1. Check for OS/OB pairs. 2. Check if price is at support(oversold), or at resistance(overbought). 3. Check for entry setup(HNS, FVG/OB, wagyu beef, etc) 4. Pick a profit target, pick a stoploss. Enter trade. Can you send me the link to his video regarding this though? It gave me an idea. Thanks

[@midnite1235]

@@raphaeldeguzman7417 It just seems that an objective measure, using an indicator, of a currency pair being oversold, might be a helpful starting point.

Nick you are literally my therapy, my trading style is very similar to yours, and we're sometimes on the same trades.

[@brownsvillebr7164]

The scary part is when you really think that there can be a month of not having anything to set up actually (talking from back testing perspective), and meanwhile there are plenty of trades to trade some good trendyy and good s/r zones that we are missing, well as i think this trading approach requires a big capital, so the question is that will you try on trading anything until a good overextended market happen?

[@Ajesen]

if you trade more pairs you are more likely to have more opportunities for setups like these... what i mostly trade is the same overextended markets but also just breaks and retests in a clear trend if the risk structure looks solid

[@theagemaway]

Omg quote of the century right here at 18:20 "I just find i get better results if i do everything i can to not let the stop get hit" I think the only word that can describe this is "profound". I'm simultaneously thinking "yeah no shit Sherlock! Duh!" And "got damn why haven't i ever tried it that way!?!" Until now I've always only thought about "can we hit the target??" But this flips it on its head. "How can we avoid the stop loss getting hit?" Also reminds me of the two cardinal rules of trading: 1. Don't lose money 2. Make money They're in that order for a reason right???

[@mateoi4200]

Bro speaking like someone who isn't promoting anything just a 4 years experience trader. Never adapt the mindset of i will not let my stop loss hit. You're stop loss must get hit as well as youre take profit must get hit. The difference and the profitability will come out as sum of 2 things: 1- Your win rate, 2- Your risk to reward. Don't listen to the bald guy who keeps on yapping here he makes millions off people who subscribe to his shit, he doesn't even have to trade he can place 2 trades a month and he is chilling. If you trade in any way shape or form like the bald guy im sorry for you and anyone else on this comment section. You will be liquidity for those who actually know how to trade so you choose.
