GBPUSD: The dollar's grip on FX will weaken in 2024, poll showsThe US dollar's influence on the foreign exchange market is likely to weaken in 2024, especially in the second half of the year, according to a study by Currency Strategists. The survey, which included the views of 71 analysts, found that expected U.S. Federal Reserve interest rate cuts next year could lead to a weaker dollar against G-10 currencies. other. The dollar, which has been a mainstay in foreign exchange markets since mid-2021, showed signs of weakness last week following dovish comments from some US Federal Reserve officials. This change in tone caused the dollar index to fall 3.0% in November, its biggest monthly decline in a year. The strength of the US economy is the main reason for the dollar's strength, with last quarter's annualized growth of 5.2%, the highest level since the final quarter of 2021. But analysts expect the dollar's weakening trend to continue next year, with most of the decline occurring by the end of 2024. Lee Hardman, senior currency strategist at MUFG, commented on the outlook: Challenges in global economic growth outside the United States are reasons to be cautious in predicting an immediate decline in the dollar. The dollar is expected to maintain some resilience in the first half of 2024, but strategists cannot agree on the factors that will determine its performance. Among the analysts, 20 cited interest rate differentials as potential factors, 17 cited economic indicators, seven cited demand for safe assets, and three cited other reasons.

GOLD ROUTE MAP & TRADING PLAN UPDATEHey Everyone, Once again we smashed another target taking the Bull all the way up into our 2047 target with only 2066 remaining. Buying from dips allowed us to manage any swings safely. Although the weighted level break has opened 2066, the target will be solidified with a ema5 lock confirmation above 2047. Once again we had plenty of time to get in for this movement, as the weighted level lock confirmed the breakout in advance. We will keep the above in mind when taking buys from dips. Our updated levels and weighted levels will allow us to track the movement down and the catch bounces up. We will continue to buy dips using our support levels taking 30 to 40 pips. As stated before each of our level structures give 20 to 40 pip bounces, which is enough for a nice entry and exit. If you back test the levels we share every week for the past 18 months, you can see how effectively they were used to trade with or against short/mid term swings and trends. BULLISH TARGETS 2010 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 2010 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 2018 - DONE 2032 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 2032 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 2047 - DONE 2066 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 1978 WILL OPEN THE SWING RANGE SWING RANGE 1952 As always, we will keep you all updated with regular updates throughout the week and how we manage the active ideas and setups.

THE KOG REPORTKOG REPORT: In last week’s KOG Report we said we would face a difficult week on the markets and will be looking for higher pricing on Gold, and if price did start with a decline, we would be looking for the levels 1970-65 for a strong support before attempting the long trade into the target regions we had above. We gave KOG’s bias level as 1965 bullish above and a target price of 2003 on our morning review and update. Looking at the move that occurred, it couldn’t have been anymore precise with the low being put in at 1965 and the target regions above completing. Another successful week on the markets with not only on Gold, but the numerous other pairs we analyse and trade. So, what can we expect in the week ahead? It’s the end of the month, so expect there to be some profit taking across the markets which will cause a lot of volatility. It’s a good idea for most traders, but especially new traders to sit out of the markets during these periods, rather spending their time on education, practicing, and improving their techniques and strategies. Gold, we can see higher pricing, however, again, how high are they going to take it? We’re looking for two moves this week, either the long from the immediate support level or KOG’s bias level which we’ll issue, or a short if price continues to the upside from the open. We’re a too high to get a decent entry from this level, so Monday could be played sitting on the sidelines waiting for price to make a move into the levels we want before attempting a trade. Of course, we’ll also be waiting for our trusted Excalibur to guide us. Levels of interest on the downside are the 1990-85 levels, where, if support holds, we feel an opportunity to long the market into the higher resistance levels could arise. We’ll be monitoring the 2010-15 resistance closely, if achieved, this is where we feel a reaction in price may take place, potentially giving bears an opportunity to short the market back down into the support levels below. A break of that level will continue the move into the previous order region 2030-35 so it could be an idea to hold a runner for higher pricing. A weekly and monthly close above that 2020 level is important for bulls and it’s likely there will be a fight for the close, so please trade this wisely, if you’re going to trade it. On the flip, if price does continue to the upside from the open, we’ll again be looking at 2010-15 for a reaction in price, otherwise, we’ll trade this level to level long on the intra-day using our red box strategy until we feel there is an opportunity to short it back down. KOG’s bias for the week: Bullish above 1985 with targets above 2010 and above that 2015 Bearish on break of 1985 with targets below 1975 and below that 1965 Please do support us by hitting the like button, leaving a comment, and giving us a follow.

Apple starting to look toppish....time for a pull back?Just got a "Sell Alert" from my customer SSG Indicator on Apple. Last 2 times this happened we saw the price quickly pull back into the direction of the 100 days EMA. Looking actually to trade this by short-selling Calls with with a strike of 200 that expire in 1 month. However, due to Thanksgiving I expect that the volatility is not going to be very high on a friday, thus I will see later if I can get a decent premium for the risk.

Deep dive into SmartBot strategy [Skyrex]Overview The system is designed to continuously monitor assets price movements, identifying formation of bases, and providing alert notifications when these bases and/or layers are either breached or adhered to. System settings are adjusted by machine learning model applied to historical price action data. Release Notes These major features and enhancements were introduced since the first launch of the system in November 2021 Enhanced script efficiency for faster compilation and integration; Introduced a "Layer Settings" section for customized layer configurations; Added options for setting a take profit percentage; Exchange commissions implemented into statistic calculations; Implemented a new "Take Profit" plot series, including a data point in the data window, to facilitate trade closure at the current base line; Added a plot series to display emerging bases during active trades on the current base line; Introduced an option to make custom early trade exits including after reaching breakeven; Implemented a setting for enhanced trade exit strategies; Adjusted the minimum layer value for Layer 1 to exchanges’ “minNotional” filter; Modified the start month condition to a calendar month basis for improved initial rendering of base lines; Consolidated all "Layer # Cracked" and "Layer # Respected" X-crosses into a unified "Layer # Cross" set to streamline the Data Window list; Eliminated base/layer line shifts to the Base Marker to simplify chart rendering calculations; Added option to set custom exit conditions at each Layer; System is rebuilt from PineScript programming language to Python using libraries: TA-lib, python-binance, CCXT, scikit-learn; Implementation of Machine Learning based on scikit-learn; Added Bayesian classifier and obtain the corrected indicator’s values; Implemented labeled Elliott wave data once a month for additional model training; Enhanced Signal Issuance Module based on Python 3.10, making decisions based on model predictions, and sending trading signals according to the second-level trading strategy algorithm, implemented using the TA-lib library, in the form of a JSON file to the panel via Webhook; Enhanced integration of Fractal DCA system with Machine Learning extension to ensure seamless and adjusted to market conditions signals production for SmartBot public beta test launch; System structure Identification of Bases The system is engineered to detect pivot lows within a fractal configuration, subsequently verifying their eligibility as bases in alignment with the principles of fractal strategy trading1. The validation process for a pivot low encompasses several checks: Confirmation that the rate of change in price during declines and rebounds surpasses a specified threshold; Verification that the volume at the pivot low exceeds the moving average of volume, determined by a predefined length; Assurance that the volume magnitude significantly exceeds the moving average of volume; Assessment to ensure that the newly identified base is sufficiently distanced from the previous range, employing a specific percentage difference threshold in price. Understanding Fractal Patterns A fractal pattern represents a repetitive configuration observable on price charts, which is instrumental in forecasting reversals amidst broader, more erratic price movements. These fundamental fractals typically consist of five or more bars. The criteria for fractal identification are as follows: A bearish turning point is identified by a pattern where the central bar has the highest high, flanked by two lower highs on each side. A bullish turning point is marked by a pattern where the central bar has the lowest low, surrounded by two higher lows on each side. The fractals depicted in figure below exemplify ideal patterns. It is important to note that while numerous variations of less perfect patterns may occur, the essential structure of the fractal must be preserved for its validity. A notable limitation of fractals as a system is their inherent nature as lagging indicators. Specifically, a fractal cannot be established until a minimum of three bars have completed on the price chart. In the context of the Fractal trading strategy, it is the bullish fractal pattern that is utilized for base identification. The system is equipped with a feature that permits customization of the number of bars that constitute the bullish fractal. The default configuration is set to a 6-bar fractal pattern. This pattern is instrumental in validating price declines and subsequent rebounds. In the latest update, the algorithm has been modified to accommodate a more flexible approach in analyzing the lows of each bar during these declines and rebounds. Instead of requiring a strictly ascending sequence, the revised algorithm focuses on confirming that the pivot point is indeed the lowest, and that the observed declines and rebounds surpass the pre-established ranges. Validation of Cracks and Bounces The process of validating cracks and bounces begins with the identification of a bullish fractal pattern, as per the system's fractal pattern settings. Upon recognizing such a pattern, the system counts the bars to the left and right of the lowest pivot point and then calculates the Price Rate of Change (ROC). The Price Rate of Change is a momentum indicator that quantifies the percentage difference in price between the current price and the price from a specified number of periods ago. The ROC is determined using the following formula: ROC = (Most recent closing price - Closing price n periods ago) / Closing price n periods ago x 100 As demonstrated in figure below, the system employs a 3-3 fractal pattern to calculate the ROC. In this example, the ROC for the Price Drop was computed to be 33.97%, and the ROC for the Price Bounce was 35.93%. These two values are then compared against the predefined “Minimum Price Drop (%)” and “Minimum Price Bounce (%)” settings. Should the ROC values for both Price Drop and Bounce surpass the established thresholds, the base is deemed valid and qualifies for additional validation. Settings either of these parameters to zero (0) implies that the system will bypass this validation step and accept any bullish fractal pattern as valid Volume Validation Methodology In accordance with the principles of Fractal trading, volume plays a crucial role in validating a base. It is primarily used to corroborate the market's robust response in preventing a further decline in price. This is typically evidenced by a "spike" in volume on the price chart, signaling a strong market reaction to the current price level. Moreover, the Fractal trading system acknowledges that volume analysis is particularly pertinent at lower timeframes, where block trades occur. These block trades may not be as discernible in higher timeframes (e.g., on a 1-hour chart). Consequently, while the system incorporates Volume Analysis to gauge the market's reaction at a potential base, this feature is not activated by default, given its optional nature. Volume analysis involves scrutinizing the quantity of shares or contracts traded within a specific timeframe. This analysis is a key tool for technical analysts, who integrate it with other indicators to inform their trading strategies. By examining volume trends alongside price movements, investors can ascertain the significance of price changes in a security. The system executes volume analysis through two distinct methods: Comparison of the volume at the low pivot point against the volume moving average, based on the following criterion: ( > ) = True Application of a multiplication factor to the volume, ensuring it surpasses the volume moving average by a specified margin: ( > ) = True In the following example, volume is greater than volume moving average: Ensuring adequate spacing between bases The system possesses the capability to be configured in such a manner that it spaces out the formation of new bases at a predetermined distance from the existing base. This feature is instrumental in preventing the occurrence of multiple bases being identified near one another. The left chart has 3 base lines that are very close together. No percent of change for new bases 5% percent of change for new bases Base Line Placement The system supports configurable settings for determining the positioning of the base line. This line can be set at the low point of the bar, or alternatively, at the lower value between the opening and closing prices. A comparative analysis of these two distinct options is presented, utilizing the same fractal pattern for evaluation Base Placed on Low Base Place on Open A critical consideration in this context is that if the bar defining the pivot low (termed as the Base Reference Bar) exhibits a lower value than either of the two placements, then the placement will default to utilizing the low of the Base Reference Bar. Base Placement on Low of Reference Bar Understanding Layering Functionality Elucidation of Layers and Their Respective Unit Types The system is designed to accommodate a maximum of nine (9) distinct layers, each equipped with its own set of crack and respect alerts. Layers can be set dynamically through API requests or preconfigured at a position start; unit value can be configured in two ways: as a percentage of the price, as a fixed quantity (such as BTC, USD, etc.). Assigning a value of zero (0) to a layer effectively deactivates it. A “respected” layer definition In the system's framework, a layer is classified as “cracked” when the market price descends beneath the specified layer price threshold. An alert is activated whenever this occurs. However, the criteria for a layer being acknowledged as “respected” can be determined through one of two selectable options. A layer is recognized as respected based on the following price action scenarios: 1. "Respected Base" - means that the system will consider all layers that are cracked below the base as respected when the price action returns to the base after a base crack. For example, consider this chart below: As illustrated, the initial base along with layers 1 and 2 are breached. However, when the price subsequently ascends, the entire configuration is deemed adhered to upon the base being respected. Consequently, in this scenario, a total of four alerts are activated: Base breached; Layer 1 breached; Layer 2 breached; Base respected. Moreover, it is noteworthy that no alert is generated upon the second breach of Layer 2. Therefore, under these settings, a layer is only recognized as breached once while the base breach is in effect. Once the base is respected, the system resets the states of the layers. Hence, if these layers are breached again post-reset, new alerts will be issued accordingly. 2. "Cracks Next Layer First" - means that the system will consider all layers that are cracked below the base as respected when the price action returns to the layer after the layer below it is cracked. For example, consider the chart. Again, the cracked state is restored when the price is returned to the base. While the last layer will never be considered respected since there is no “Next Layer” to be cracked. Duration of layered trading activity The duration of layered trading within the system is adjustable, allowing to define the maximum permissible number of cracks per base. Upon reaching this threshold, the system ceases to issue alerts for further price movements across the layers. Instead, it shifts its focus to identifying new bases as they emerge. A base is deemed to be cracked upon the breach of the first layer. The system offers a configurable option to set a maximum limit on the number of bars for which a layered trade can be active. Upon the breach of the 1st layer, the system initiates a count of the duration, in terms of bars, for which the trade remains active. Should this duration surpass thepredefined maximum threshold, the system will then classify the base as disregarded and start recognizing new base candidates as they emerge. This feature is particularly beneficial in preventing the system from persisting indefinitely on the same base. By default, this setting is assigned a value of 0 bars, indicating that it is initially inactive. The system additionally offers a feature to manage the initiation point for base detection. This functionality is crucial in ensuring that the detection process does not commence amidst an ongoing, long-duration cracked base. Such a scenario could potentially hinder the identification and charting of new bases, thereby impacting the effectiveness of the trading strategy. The system also provides the ability to control the starting point of the base detection so that you can ensure that you are not starting in the middle of a cracked base that is long running in duration, thus preventing new bases from being detected and place on the chart. Risk management settings The system is designed to incorporate a "Take Profit" feature, which enables to exit a trade following a base crack, thereby mitigating the risk of the base not being respected. Alongside the Take Profit functionality, the system also allows for the configuration of Break Even and Stop Loss parameters. These can be activated at predetermined layers, offering users the flexibility to tailor the timing of their application. Furthermore, the system facilitates the input of specific exchange buy and sell commission rates. This inclusion is critical for refining the Take Profit calculations, ensuring they are as accurate as possible to realize the intended profit margins. These configurations play a pivotal role in recalculating the Take Profit price line with each layer crack. It's important to note that the efficacy of this setting is contingent on the "Layer Is Respected When Price" being configured to "Respects Base." In scenarios where this is not the case, the Take Profit price line will experience an upward adjustment whenever layers are respected. Therefore, the optimal utility of this setting is realized when it is paired with the "Respects Base" configuration. The calculation of the Take Profit line value will inherently treat the Stop Loss Percentage as a negative figure. Consequently, there is no requirement to specify a negative number for this setting. Accompanying this text are screenshots that demonstrate diverse instances of these settings being applied within a chart context Take Profit with Layer Activation Settings Disabled Take Profit Activated at Layer 3 Break Even Activated at Layer 3 Stop Loss Activated at Last Layer

THE KOG REPORTKOG REPORT: In last weeks KOG Report we suggested that if price began with a decline and stayed above the 1920-23 price region, we felt an opportunity to long would be available, based on strong support. We gave the levels above as 1950-55 and above that 1965 and 1970 as the target levels to aim for and then added the daily bias levels. We gave the weekly bias level high at 1995 which was short by a few pips and managed to complete all the daily bias levels given to traders. Well done to those who followed and managed to get something out of the markets, not only on Gold, but the numerous other pairs we trade and share. So, what can we expect in the week ahead? Again, this is going to be a difficult week for traders to navigate and stay ahead of, so please make sure you have a risk model in place as one big move in the opposite direction can really cause traders problems. We can see there being potential for higher pricing, but what we want to see again this week is how low to they attempt to take it while staying above the order region. We have the levels below as key support regions 1970-65 and below that 1950-55, which price needs to stay above in order to target and potentially break above the 2000 barrier. So, for that reason, we will be looking for a similar scenario to last week. If we see price attempt the lower support regions 1970-65 and below that 1950-55, we feel an opportunity to long the market up into the 1995 and above that 2003 levels could be available to traders. It’s at these price points that we want to monitor price action and look for signs of a RIP. If we struggle around the 2006-10 region with extension into 2015-17, we will be looking to short the market back down with an open take profit. On the flip, continuing upside from the get-go, we will be looking to trade level to level into the regions we’ve mentioned above, before then looking for the short trade back down initially into the 1965-70 region and then hopefully further down. KOGs bias for the week: Bullish above 1965 with targets above 1995 and above that 2003 Bearish on the break of 1965 with targets below 1955 and below that 1943 This gives us a potential range 1935-2010 for the week ahead.

XAUUSD: BofA: Fed funds rate forecast to be higher for longerWe have decided to adjust our forecast for the end of the U.S. Treasury yield curve so that the 10-year yield is 4.25% by the end of 2024. Our forecasts are below market expectations, but in particular he is ahead of public forecasts through the end of 2024. Our two-year forecast reflects a smaller decline in interest rates than consensus forecasts due to market expectations for higher nominal neutral rates and the risk of increased economic resilience. Strong growth will lead to higher interest rates, which will be higher than expected An increase in the supply of U.S. Treasuries could cause U.S. long-term interest rates to rise and the yield curve to become steeper than expected. A deepening US recession and further crisis in the banking sector could raise the possibility of rate cuts.

XAGUSD (SILVER) ____ INCOMING BULLISH MOVEHello Traders, I trust you are doing great and getting reading for the new trading week. Here is my view on Silver. To begin with, I will draw your attention to the monthly chart. Based on where I plotted my monthly OB, go and look at your monthly chart. Price mitigated the manipulation. Hence the rally. If you measure that bullish candle that price mitigated on the monthly chart, note where it ends. Now come back to the daily chart and look at the kind of structure we have. It is an inverse heads and shoulders pattern. My speculation is that price will continue to rally to the weekly supply orderblock. You will also notice that whilst other USD pairs made massive moves last trading week, Silver didn't. Which means that we might get an explosion this week. There is just one suspicious thing... price formed a trendline liquidity, but I am still interested in taking the long as there are more confluences for a long than short. What do you think? Follow for more updates like this. Cheers, Jabari

AUDUSD ____ INCOMING BULLISH MOVEHello Guys, I do hope the trading week has been fair to you. Now the breakdown of this pair. Let's start from the weekly, we have a bullish CHOCH on the weekly timeframe. Dropping to the daily timeframe, you will notice that we have buy-side liquidity (relatively equal highs) to hunt and the actual demand orderblock is below a swing low. (see annotations) You will notice that I marked my daily demand orderblock on the wick of the candle. That is because the wick embodies the manipulation that ran the sell-side liquidity (relatively equal lows). Follow for more updates. Cheers, Jabari

Parallel Universe: Expert's Guide to the Art of Losing MoneyDisclaimer: Warning! The given tips are born from the minds of financial disasters and for entertainment purposes only. These are the results of the imagination of unsuccessful traders with a knack for making impressive losses. These master traders are known to make their financial mistakes by making huge losses. Unsuccessful traders are honored members of FRBF - Financial Ruins of Big Fortune with lifetime achievement of negative portfolios and returns. We do not recommend following the suggestions from the unsuccessful traders otherwise we have to add you to FRBF club. Well, well, if it isn't the tired soul tired of seeing green numbers in their trading account. Can you believe it? I always have seen a dream of world's biggest loser trader. Apparently, 99% of traders out there are making money, and we're stuck in the miserable 1% who might be losing. But hey, if you're sick and tired of making money, you've stumbled upon the perfect spot. Get ready for a wild ride as I unveil the secrets to drain your hard-earned cash and proudly join the prestigious FRBF - the Financial Ruins of Big Fortune. Buckle up, my friend! 1) Borrowing Money: You should borrow money from every possible resource. Remember that Saving money and working hard for financial stability is just for cowardly people. Debt is the only key to get success in the trading world. If you have bad luck, you can get your creditors good luck by borrowing their money. Imagine when your creditor will knock on your door, and you will be running and hiding from them! How thrilling is this! It's a surefire way to reach new heights of financial ruin. 2) Avoid Using Stop-loss: We should totally ignore those stop-loss orders. There's this fascinating study that suggests traders who actually use stop-loss orders tend to have lower losses compared to those who don't. who needs that kind of useful information? Not us! We're not beginners here, are we? If you use stop-loss, it will exit the trade when market sentiments are changed. You will never be able to make huge losses. Let's just toss those stop-loss orders right out the window and dive headfirst into the exhilarating world of uncertainty. Because what's more exciting than watching our trades go haywire with no safety net? So let's embrace the thrill, ignore risk management, and revel in the rollercoaster ride of potential financial ruin. 3) Hold Losing Positions & Never cut losses: Who needs to admit defeat when we can simply cling to hope and pray that the market will miraculously turn in our favor? It's such a fantastic strategy to hold onto those sinking ships, watching our losses pile up like trophies of our unwavering determination. Cutting our losing positions? Pfft, that's for amateurs who actually care about preserving their capital and minimizing losses. We, on the other hand, choose to ride the wave of delusion and hold onto our sinking investments with unwavering faith. After all, why learn from mistakes when we can repeat them endlessly? So let's keep clutching those losing positions tightly, and maybe, just maybe, the market will eventually bend to our will. 4) Avoid Managing Risk: Risk management will not let you become an unsuccessful trader. Forget about preserving your capital and protecting yourself from substantial losses. Let's just dive headfirst into the deep end and throw caution to the wind! So, according to your brilliant logic, let's ignore risk management and trade in five stocks with a 1:3 risk-reward ratio. We'll lose $3 in three stocks and $6 in the remaining two trades. Brilliant strategy, right? Who needs profits when we can lose money consistently? 5) Never Pay Attention to News & Events: Who needs to stay informed about current events and news when it comes to trading? Ignorance is truly bliss, especially when it comes to making informed decisions and understanding market dynamics. Let's just close our eyes and ears to all those pesky news articles, economic reports, and major events that could potentially impact the market. Who needs to know about interest rate changes, geopolitical tensions, or corporate earnings releases? They're just distractions, right? Instead, let's rely on our sheer intuition and gut feelings to guide our trading decisions. (6) Overtrade Consistently: Overtrading is the key to financial prosperity in the trading world. Forget about patience, strategy, and carefully planned execution. Instead, let's indulge in a frenzy of excessive trading and drown ourselves in a sea of transactions. Who needs quality over quantity when it comes to trades? Let's throw caution to the wind and execute as many trades as possible, disregarding any semblance of rational decision-making. Because, clearly, more trades automatically translate into more profits, right? Why bother with analyzing market trends, studying charts, or conducting thorough research when we can just click that "Buy" or "Sell" button incessantly? After all, trading is just a game of chance, and blind luck is definitely on our side. 7) Never Use Technical Analysis: Technical analysis? Nah, it's all smoke and mirrors, right? Who needs those fancy charts, indicators, and patterns to make smart trading decisions? I mean, who has time for that? Sure, by using technical analysis, you could potentially have a better sense of when to enter or exit trades and where to set stop-loss levels. You might even be able to forecast market movements using theories like Elliott wave, price action, chart pattern analysis, or volume analysis. But who needs all that when you can just wing it and tap the buy and sell buttons without any plan or analysis? Who needs strategies or insights anyway? Forget about those losers who waste their time studying charts and analyzing market trends. Real traders, the ones who consistently lose money, don't bother with technical analysis or any other form of analysis for that matter. They rely solely on their gut feelings and blind luck. That's the way to go! 8) Emotional Trading: emotional trading Is a brilliant strategy! Who needs logical decision-making when you can base all your trades on impulsive emotions? Forget about analyzing charts, patterns, or market trends. Just let your feelings guide you like a compass in a hurricane. Why bother with calm and rational thinking when you can succumb to the rollercoaster ride of fear, greed, and impulsiveness? It's truly a magnificent way to sabotage your trading success and ensure that your portfolio becomes an emotional wreck. So go ahead, throw logic out the window, and embrace the chaos of emotional trading. Because nothing says financial stability like making impulsive decisions based on fleeting emotions! Good luck on your wild emotional trading adventure! 9) Always Trust Unregulated Brokers: Unregulated brokers are the epitome of trustworthiness and reliability. Who needs regulatory oversight and investor protection when it comes to handling our hard-earned money? Why bother with ensuring the safety of our funds or verifying the legitimacy of a broker? It's so much more exciting to entrust our financial well-being to anonymous individuals operating in the shadows. Who needs transparency, accountability, or adherence to industry standards? Unregulated brokers provide the perfect opportunity to navigate the treacherous waters of the financial world without any safety nets. It's like playing a high-stakes game of roulette with our life savings! 10) Always trade on others' advice Trading on others' advice is the secret recipe for success in the trading world. Who needs to develop their own knowledge, skills, and expertise when we can rely solely on the wisdom of others? Let's throw out our own analysis, research, and intuition, and blindly follow the advice of random strangers on the internet or that "hot tip" from a friend's cousin's neighbor's dog. After all, they must be financial geniuses with impeccable track records, right? Who needs to understand the underlying fundamentals or technical aspects of a trade when we can just mimic the actions of others without question? It's so liberating to surrender our autonomy and decision-making abilities to the masses. It's a foolproof strategy that guarantees confusion, frustration, and, of course, financial ruin. 11) Never Ever Take Profit It's such an intelligent strategy to watch our gains evaporate right before our eyes. Why bother with securing our profits and protecting our capital when we can hold on to winning positions indefinitely? It's so much more thrilling to experience the roller coaster ride of market fluctuations and see our unrealized gains dwindle away. Let's ignore those pesky market indicators, trailing stops, and profit targets. After all, who needs a concrete plan when we can simply rely on greed and the hope that our winning trades will magically keep going up forever? And let's not forget the joy of regret when a once-profitable trade eventually turns into a massive loss. Who needs financial stability and consistent growth when we can embrace the unpredictable nature of the market and bask in the glory of missed opportunities? 12) Learning From Mistakes Learning from our mistakes and evolving as a trader is overrated. Who needs personal growth and improvement when we can stay firmly planted in our cycle of financial self-destruction? Let's ignore those pesky lessons that losses teach us. Why bother reflecting on our trading errors, analyzing our strategies, or seeking ways to improve? It's so much more exciting to repeat the same mistakes over and over again, expecting different results each time. Who needs progress and development when we can remain comfortably stagnant in our trading endeavors? Let's embrace the thrill of consistent failure and pretend that we're on the cusp of a breakthrough while repeating the same ineffective tactics. And why stop repeating mistakes? Let's add a touch of delusion and convince ourselves that this time, things will magically turn around. Because, clearly, doing the same thing repeatedly without learning from it is the secret to unbounded success. 13) Fall for "Get-Rich-Quick Schemes" "Get-rich-quick schemes" are the epitome of financial wisdom and stability. Who needs a long-term, sustainable approach to wealth when we can chase after elusive shortcuts to instant riches? Why bother with hard work, patience, and diligence when we can throw caution to the wind and blindly trust those promising overnight success? Let's believe in the magic of "secret formulas," "guaranteed profits," and "hidden strategies" that are conveniently packaged in flashy marketing campaigns. Let's not forget the joy of handing over our hard-earned money to these self-proclaimed experts, who undoubtedly have our best interests at heart. After all, it's not like they're preying on our gullibility and desperation for a quick financial fix, right? 14) Trade Based on Rumors Baseless rumors and gossip are the most reliable sources of information for successful trading. Who needs verified facts, data, or market analysis when we can simply rely on hearsay and unfounded speculation? Why bother with conducting thorough research or verifying the authenticity of information? Let's just blindly believe every rumor that comes our way and make trading decisions based on pure gossip. It's so much more thrilling to embrace uncertainty and place our trust in unverified whispers. Who needs to understand the impact of real market drivers or economic indicators when we can make impulsive decisions based on the latest unfounded chatter? It's like playing a game of financial Russian roulette with our hard-earned money. To be continued... :D Idea by @Money_Dictators on @TradingView Platform
