I place these vertical lines on my charts in Tradingview just to see what would happen if I had executed a trade there, I really need to start taking actual trades in those spots. I would probably have about a 60% win rate and the winners would usually be a lot bigger than the losers. They tend to be really good dip buys. Too bad I hestitate and have trouble with actually executing but something I'm working on. Using the prop firm has helped a bit.

Decided to try TradeFundrr. Joined a StocksToTrade live with Monaco and Bryce, they were talking about it and it sounded like a good next step. I have been studying for ~2.5 years, 1.5 of it in the challenge. I have been trading small, so winning small and losing small, felt like I wasn't getting anywhere. Did what Bryce suggested and traded with a few shares, eventually went to trading with $100 per position, paper traded a few times in there. The prop firm makes it feel more real. Doing my best to stay disciplined, trading with only $1000-$2000 per position until I am comfortable with increasing my size.
Paper cuts add up.

I started doing this thing on Tradingview where I use circles to mark potential entries based on price movement and then I would see how it did. I could also use the bottom of the circle to mark my risk level. There's barely any emotion involved, quick entries, quick exits, and overall I did pretty well doing that. But transferring that over to trading with real money has so far been a challenge. I end up hesitating on good setups and sizing up on bad ones.
