Dat EUR

Published // 12 Jul 2025

Well, I doubted my strategy this week! Commission fee is something else.

 Started in wednesday, when I had a trade that I did not enter, it swept my OB and went up, then when it came back, I did not enter because it was not my ideal setup anymore. That's how I let my first 2% gone.



Then, another trade came, this one, I enter, the price is green a bit. Then I realized I was forcing trade, so I closed it at small profit, but noooo. 

This is the first time I realize that the commission fee is so damn high. Although I closed the trade green but my balance is negative. dang. The commission is what I need to consider now. I was not paid attention back then when my friend told me about it, I thought, well, if you will, it's nothing to consider. but now when I've lost, this is what I need to consider. 



Here is my losing trade this week, well, to be honest, I did enter another one but sadly it did not hit my entry and I lost it. This losing one, hmm, seriously, I accepted it, well really I still don't see why it's wrong. it's the probability then. 


Now comes the missed trade. 


The price did not hit my entry, I was a bit greedy do but my entry was in the middle of the OB, but if I hadn't done that, if I had put my entry at the normal level, this might have turned out to be another losing trade for me. 

So, was I right, or wrong?

You know, from these 2 trades, I lost $40 in commission fee, which is so damn high. I need to get more winning trade, haha.

Yesterday, I was offline and I missed a winning trade... that was sad. And at night, I chose not to enter another trade since it did not meet my criteria. But it turned out to be a winning trade. Nah bro, it's not your setup, so don't be sad. don't be mad.


OK. that's a wrap for the week.

You will do better, don't worry. 


Why blogging?

Hmm, I started this blog because I want to document my trading journey, well, from knowing nothing, knowing a little bit, knowing more, and hopefully I will be able to live of off trading.
