Most traders don’t lose because their analysis is bad…
They lose because their timing is bad.
Here’s how I personally approach my entries:
1️⃣ I Never Chase Breakouts
Retail traders jump into the first breakout candle.
I don’t.
Breakouts often turn into:
• Liquidity grabs
• Stop hunts
• Emotional FOMO entries
I let the breakout happen.
I let weak hands pile in.
Then I wait for the reaction.
Patience pays. Impulse costs.
2️⃣ I Wait for the Fakeout
A fakeout usually:
• Wicks above resistance
• Wicks below support
• Traps breakout traders
• Then snaps back into structure
That snap back?
That’s where I start paying attention.
I’d rather be late and right
Than early and trapped.
3️⃣ I Enter on Pullbacks — Not Impulses
Big green candles feel exciting.
But they usually offer poor R:R.
My best entries come:
• After the breakout
• After the retest
• On a pullback to support
• Near EMA or previous resistance turning support
Low risk.
High reward.
Clean invalidation.
4️⃣ I Think About Risk Before Profit
Before I enter any trade, I ask myself:
• Where is my invalidation?
• Is my stop loss logical — or emotional?
• Is my R:R at least 1:2 or better?
If the risk doesn’t make sense, I simply skip it.
No setup is better than a bad setup.
5️⃣ I Let Price Come to Me
The market rewards patience.
If I feel urgency…
It usually means I’m late.
I don’t chase candles.
I let price come into my zone.
💡 What I’ve Learned
The goal isn’t to catch every move.
The goal is to catch the clean ones.
I trade less.
I wait more.
I enter smarter.
Consistency over excitement.
