Gladly, when I started out trading with paper money as a beginner, I thought I knew everything that I needed to know about the market. I had my glorious indicators on-hand and my customized charts, fully loaded with colored volume panel but then when I started trading with real money, I nearly lost it all, and I was deranged with fear, over-confidence (or lack of it), and a whole mix of different emotions. I blamed the market for taking my money and I couldn't "see" it for what it was. After continuously losing capital each time I reloaded my account, I finally decided to stop trading, and I had to in a way "know thyself." I started investing further into education on trading, from trends, to psychology, probability, discipline, etc. I stripped the market down to see what made it tick, and what it was made of. I removed all of my indicators and studied price action, supply and demand, support and resistance, trends, pivotal points, and so on so forth. I removed myself from other traders and market news during trading hours. I built my own system for trading, and instead of trying to predict, I started to base my trading around probability. And finally, I added a "stop loss" post-it note onto my monitor. I didn't get to go over all the points but that's the basic idea. I couldn't see nothing until I lost everything. Always keep an open mind, discipline yourself, and don't blame the market because it's most likely "you" that needs a little reevaluation.

It's not about what you see, it's about what you don't see. That implies to not only trading itself but also throughout everyday in your life.

It hasn't been long since I joined TL, I must say that I am being spoiled here (along with everyone else). Thank you!

Happy new year, lets start of the year with some good runs.

Sleep, gotta let my mind rest for a bit before going back to trading.

Hello everyone, I've been looking for an indicator that utilizes VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) and I found one but it was made for Tradestation, called, "VSA No Demand No Supply" (VT Code supplied by PivotProfiler, Translated into Tradestation by Blu-Ray). I would greatly appreciate it if someone could translate this indicator for Ninjatrader please? Thank you. (Attached the original TS VSA No Demand/Supply Indicator below) VSA No Demand No Supply.zip
