Technical Breakthrough
May 2025 vs. Sept. 2024
May 2025: This month was on fleek. Going back through Rewired, doing a lot of workouts and dance practices,
a little 3-day vacation, good sleep and a long awaited Day-In-The-Life with a 5-Year planning session raised the
energy through the roof. Every forecast was made according to the TP and instead of wanting to pass my
assessment, I just prioritized the best performance I could give. As the month was quite corrective throughout
multiple asset classes I skipped dozens of setups and pairs that I would have hunted down for an unnecessary
entry earlier in the journey. Still there were four solid positions for me which were executed in ease and could
have even been more refined.
1. EUR/AUD Short / Low Risk / Three-Touch M15 Flag / +2.25%

2. GBP/CHF Long / Low Risk / Two-Touch H4 Flag / +0.5%

3. EUR/USD Long / High Risk / Insurance Entry M15 / Break-Even

4. GBP/CHF Long / Low Risk / Insurance Entry M15 / +2.5%

September 2024: Looking back this was the month where the doubts about timelines, trading and relationship
were the most intense. I was almost on a daily basis caught up in thoughts, difficult conversations and often
slept really badly. In the second half of the month I was severely sick as well but continued to trade as I told
myself to push through it. Also every forecast back then had over-detailed annotations which subconsciously led
to being very connected to the trade-ideas which made it more difficult to walk away and not take the setups,
which you will see in the position. You will also see that the general idea for each trade below was surely valid
but there was always a P-S-or-E missing which would have been a flashing red light for me today.
1. EUR/NZD Short / Invalid Structure + Invalid Entry Timeframe / -1%
Journal: https://shorturl.at/ya5FM
2. CHF/JPY Short / High Risk Sequence + Exotic Pair / -1%

3. AUD/USD Short / High Risk Sequence + High Risk Entry / Break-Even
Journal: https://shorturl.at/YzCoC
4. EUR/NZD Long / Great Sequence + Invalid Entry / -1%
Journal: https://shorturl.at/Iwbgi
5. EUR/USD Long / High Risk Sequence on the LTF / -1%

6. AU200/AUD Short / High Risk LTF Sequence + High Risk Entry / -1%
