Long Overdue Post - Part 2

As volatility dies down during the holidays, I'd like to stay productive now that I have a few days in a row off.

Aside from focusing on trading psychology, I'd like to get back in the zone of understanding price behavior. Although I'm a fan of Dale Woods' videos, he does not release that many. I'm thinking of reviewing Rayner Teo's series despite the harsh criticism of TradingSchools.org.


For the days that I do have off, I plan on doing the following:

1. Read the Forex Trading Psychology section of Babypips

2. Read the Technical Analysis section of Babypips

The goal of these two readings is to go back to basics in order to gain an alternative perspective of technical analysis.

On the fundamentals side, I'd like to catch up with the news on a few things as well.

1. Key economic and employment figures of the past few months

2. US election and impeachment news

3. Brexit

While I don't incorporate fundamantals in my trading, I do think that I am not in tune with recent events. As the markets react to these events, I essentially experience volatility that I would otherwise have to sit out.

Finally, I'd like to commit a block of time just for chart study. This entails reviewing the historical charts of the past few days, weeks, and months to identify setups that I have missed and figure out how I can further optimize my strategy.

That's it for now. I'm still planning to do the TopstepTrader Combine in the new year. That goal hasn't changed, but I do have my futures trading strategy to refine as well.
