Last week was probably one of the slowest weeks I’ve ever had. I found two setups, but neither one truly materialized. They just didn’t meet all the conditions in my plan. It was tough. I won’t pretend it wasn’t tempting to drop my rules and chase other strategies just so I could be in the market.
But deep down, I knew exactly what I wanted. I want to be consistent. I want to trade like a professional. So I held back. All week, I watched and waited. No trades taken. It was boring, honestly. But that boredom protected my capital.
Instead of forcing trades, I spent the entire weekend backtesting, drilling into my strategy even more. I wanted to be sure that when my moment came, I’d recognize it without hesitation.
Then this week started. I didn’t know if it would be any different, but I trusted my process and stayed ready. Eventually, one clean setup appeared. I shared it here on TradingView. I managed my risk properly, took half my usual size at just 0.5%, and let the trade run. It almost hit my stop, but I didn’t touch it. It was simple: either TP or SL.
And this time, it hit TP. A clean 1:4.
This was a powerful lesson. Following my plan didn’t just lead to a winning trade. It protected my capital all of last week when the market wasn’t offering quality setups. That patience and discipline paid off.
That’s how you build consistency. That’s how you survive long enough to catch the trades that truly matter.
