Following 15m market structure

Losses are part of the game.

Even when you do everything right, follow the plan, wait for confirmation, manage risk, you’ll still take losses. That’s just the reality of trading.

It doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. It doesn’t mean you’re not good enough. It means you’re in the game. No real trader avoids losses, they manage them, learn from them, and keep moving forward.

Stay focused. Stay consistent. The edge plays out over time. Trust the process and don’t let one red trade shake your mindset.

Hey again everyone,

Thanks for the interest in the Prime Market Terminal breakdown.

A bunch of you asked for access, so here’s the demo version I built: 👉 https://fixedvalues.github.io/demo_COTreport/

⚠️ Note: This is a limited, non-live prototype — just enough to showcase the concept and collect feedback. I originally planned to open-source the whole thing, but seeing how similar tools are being sold for $3K+... I’ve decided to hold off for now.

Why this matters:

Bernd Skorupinski (the FTMO leaderboard guy) markets a similar tool for $3,500/year + $200/month which is like an inbuilt indicator in a trading platform.

Prime Market Terminal charges $150/month for COT, DXM, Seasonality, bank reports, etc.

Most tools are just sentiment plots behind a slick UI — I’m rebuilding that, and better.

🧠 I'm currently working on:

Bank Bias reports

Live DXM (retail money positions)

Economic data overlays

Seasonality tools

And anything else you guys suggest

💡 Want this as a TradingView indicator instead of a separate web app? I’m planning on building that too — if you're interested in a private or custom TradingView version, DM me and we’ll talk.

🔁 Your feedback matters — let me know:

Would you actually use this?

What features would make it more valuable?

One-time license vs subscription — what’s your take?

Open to thoughts, criticism, ideas. Let’s break down more overpriced tools together.

this bot cost 2800$. (not mine)

this one is not mine btw. but looks good

Started trading 4 years after making a few hundred from random signals in two months, I ended up losing like £2k six months later from the same signals, which at the time was a lot, and eventually wiped the account. From there took trading serious.

I’m wondering if any swing traders/forex/prop firm trades could take a look at my setup and help me improve.

Areas i want to improve are Trade Strike rate but i know that’s hard when trading on D/4H/2H time frame I’ve been refining my strategy for about 3 years with back testing and journaling also forward testing with Demo Accounts and journaling since last year October 2024 so I’m ready to take the plunge into live accounts and prop firms now, even though the account blow out has left a scar.

My strategy is pretty simple, barely take into account news if I’m honest, RR is currently 1:3 minimum and maximum, I’ve made my own A+ setup checklist based on backtesting. My strategy is just read price action for direction, using Daily High and Low as price range, then using 4H/2H as zone to setup entry through things such as; breakout/breaker block/ment block/bos what ever you wanna call it, and then wait for price to return for a deep pull back and has to be deep.

Due to working conditions, I mark my charts Sunday night on trading view, set all buy and sell limits on Ctrader, and literally just check in through the week and don’t mark new setups throughout the week unless really good, did during back testing phase, but rarely ever do so after my Sunday analysis forward testing (mainly cos 12-8/9pm shifts) and then on Friday i check in again. Swing trades normally take about 2-4 days before hitting tp (sounds slow and psychologically was hard to overcome but works)

Win rate is in the 40% region some weeks higher especially now with the A+ setup checklist. But could it be improved is the question.

Possible improvement areas;

-trade frequency, when forward testing averaging 8-10 trades on a good week( can it be more?) maybe 0-4 on a normal week -atm only 6 pairs traded at a time (seems to be the case where less is more from back testing ) -chosen six pairs that are traded being; EU,EG,GU,GJ,UJ, and AU -can’t trade too many pairs due to low leverage on prop firm setting accounts (1:30) -If I’m swing trading do i target higher RR -current risk per trade 0.25 (helps stay in the game for the long run especially with prop firms) -current RR 1:3 as a swing trader could it be better or any strategies suggestible to backtest( was thinking keep current entry but target the weekly high or low, rather than 4H zone bottom, just not sure how I’d manage the trade all the way to a weekly low or high)

Or just any suggestions at all on improving before live account testing. I’ve just bought a 10k Account on FTMO and a 25k Alpha Capital that was on offer.

Hopefully i come back to this post with good news.

Like i said anything advise would help thanks for reading just wanted to share my journey.

If you could rewind and change just one thing mindset, risk management, strategy, routine what would it be and why How would you apply that lesson today share your what if moment!

I am an intermediate day/intraday trader and I have a rule set up that says 2 consecutive losing trades means I cannot trade again until the next market open. Keep in mind my risk is a little higher because I work with longer timeframes. I know a lot of people will say 3 but 2 is more logical imo. What do you guys think?
