After struggling for over a year, I finally thought I was making progress, and last month had my first ever winning month, with only 2 losing days. Then at the start of august everything started to go wrong, and I couldnt seem to get a single trade right. Also , liquidity seemed really low, especially in the last week. Like, really low, often struggling to get over 200-300K. I couldnt understand it, it was so frustrating. Anyway, today I finally found what I think(hope) is the reason. My system clock is nearly 5 minutes fast!!! So i was trading at the wrong time, and moving to the next race in frustration when the betangel timer went into the red, just as it was probably hotting up.
Lol what a dope. I am hoping that I can get back on track now.
Anyone else had this problem ?

Can't say that I have but looking at the positive side you had your 1st winning month with loss control. Well done.

I didn't have a single winning trading day for the whole of june and july, but I know the reason for that.

Next goal - two winning months with only 4 days of loss (minus the cost of a new watch.)

Could that be because you didn't trade a single day in june and july?

Neeeeeeeeeeeel, you need to take more notice! you need to watch pics or something, what about when there are delays?
