📅 Checked Forex Factory at 8:20 AM—NFP and unemployment rate reports signaled a volatile session ahead.
Always Start with News 🗞️
The first thing I did when I woke up? I checked ForexFactory for scheduled news. You don’t step into a battlefield without knowing what’s about to explode. Today we had both Non-Farm Payroll and unemployment rate reports—prime volatility fuel.
📊 NFP data just hit—139,000 jobs added vs. the 126,000 expected. Perfect fuel for a breakout setup.
The Strategy: BOS on Movement 🚀
When you trade price action, you don’t need clutter. I use one line on my Tradingview chart. That’s it. No indicators. No noise. Just time, price, and risk management. I wait for the market to break structure on a 2-minute chart, and if volatility’s present—like it was today—I’m in.
📈 Just one line—no distractions. When price breaks structure, we already know the risk.
What the Numbers Say 🔢
Here’s how it broke down across all five funded accounts:
🎯 Leader account: $96.02 profit locked in. Precision over size—this is how we scale consistency.
🔁 Follower 1: $96.52 profit. Same trade, same strategy—small wins across the board.
🔁 Follower 2: $96.52 profit. Precision repeated is profit multiplied.
🔁 Follower 3: $94.52 profit. Even with slight variation, the edge still plays out.
🔁 Follower 4: $96.02 profit. Final account brings the 5-account total to $479.60—one strategy, one edge.
Let the Market Go Without You 🧠
Yes, I see it. The market kept going. Had I stayed in longer, I could have doubled or tripled that $479.60. But I could have also given it all back in one dumb move.
That’s the fight no one talks about: you vs. you. The strategy’s important, but the self-control is what gets you paid. Knowing when to be done is a skill in itself. Today, I respected my system. I walked away green.
I know some of you reading this would’ve gone right back in. That’s how $479 turns into -$120 real fast. If you’re going to grow as a trader, learn when to shut it down. Let the market go without you.
The Only Curve That Matters 📉📈
This is our equity curve from March 24 to June 6. One account. No spikes, no collapses—just a clean, steady climb toward $9,000. This is what consistent execution looks like.
Multiply this by five accounts and you’ll understand how we’ve crossed the $44,000 mark in just over two months. The goal isn’t glory—it’s growth. 📊
📈 One clean curve—slow, steady, and rising. No rollercoaster, no chaos. Just edge applied with discipline.
