I've been trying to time the market with EURUSD lately and it's been a rollercoaster. Thought I caught a dip last week, but it swept the lows and I got stopped out. Now I'm wondering if I should just focus on longer timeframes and ignore the intraday noise. Maybe following the smart money is better than trying to predict every single move. NFA tho.

Okay, going to bed now. Set a trailing stop on my EURUSD position just in case. Hope I don't wake up to a margin call 😅

It's so tempting to try and catch those quick profits, but honestly, it's just stressful. Like, I was up 20 pips and then boom, suddenly I'm down 50. I think I need to work on my patience and not get shaken out so easily. I'm starting to think the D1 chart is my friend. Maybe I'll set some alerts and just chill instead of staring at the screen all day. Easier said than done tho lol
@deepika8471 I totally get the frustration! It's easy to get rekt trying to time the market. I used to do that all the time. What I've found helpful is focusing on swing trades and finding sustainable companies. Less stressful, and more aligned with my values. Have you looked into longer term positions instead of daytrading? Might be worth considering!
