Series 10｜Practice methods to achieve results as quickly as possible #2

Decide what to practice before practicing

Hello, this is THE DAYTRADE.

“I look at the chart every day, but I’m not progressing easily.”

If you feel this way, it may bethat the content of your practice hasn’t been decidedyet.

Last time, I wrote that “shortest” means not taking detours. This time, the first step.Decide what to practice before you start practicing—that’s the topic.

1. “Somehow practicing” makes progress difficult

Open the chart, look at it vaguely, enter vaguely, finish vaguely.

Even so, the time spent looking at charts increases. But,you don’t know what you’ve become able to doas a result.

In sports terms, it’s like going to the field every day and playing matches vaguely. The number of games increases, but you don’t know if you’re bad at shooting or bad at passing. That’s why you don’t improve easily.

2. Trade practice can be broken down

Trade decisions can be divided into several parts. In my method, for example, it’s like this.

• Read the flow：In 4H, is it currently rising or falling
• Narrow down the place：In 1H, where to enter
• Decide the timing：In 5M, when to enter
• Take a pass：Do not enter when conditions are not aligned
• Cut：Cut loss at the decided location
• Review：Record the reasons for your judgments and verify

If you try to practice all of this at once, you won’t know where you’re stumbling. So,practice by separating the partsis important.

3. Practice themes should be “one by one”

Recommended is,to focus on one practice theme for a certain periodinstead of many things at once.

For example, decide “this week, only practice judging the flow in 4H.” That week, don’t think about entries; just watch 4H every day and decide “up or down.”

With one theme, at the end of practice you can clearly seewhether you succeeded or not. If you didn’t, that’s the part to practice again. This is a way to reduce retraining.

4. Also decide the order of practice

When choosing themes, the order matters.

If you don’t understand the flow and only practice 5M timing, it won’t stick. There’s no foundation.

The order I recommend is,4H (flow) → 1H (place) → 5M (timing)building the foundation from larger timeframes downward.

In this series as well, from the next post, I’ll write how to practice one by one in this order.

What to do today

On your phone’s notes,write just one practice theme for this week

If you’re unsure, start with “watch 4H every day and decide up or down.” That alone will change the content of your practice from tomorrow.

Summary

Even if you look at charts every day, if you haven’t decided what to practice, your progress will be slow.

Separate trade decisions and practice one theme at a time. Then build the foundation in the order 4H → 1H → 5M.

Deciding what to practice is the first step to training without detours. Chase accuracy rather than profitability. In the correct order, build up one by one.
