Chart — MNQ1! — 1H View We accepted the FVG and beautifully filled it, while also respecting the 4H FVG, which acted as a great key level. On August 6th, 2026, we reached a level that became a support level on August 7th. The scenario I’m leaning toward the most is a move through the high formed on August 5th, 2026. What do you guys think about this scenario? This is an analysis I wanted to share and, at the same time, hear your thoughts and possible scenarios. :) This is my first time posting and asking about something like this. I’m mainly doing it out of curiosity and to get to know the community better and hear different perspectives. :D

I’m curious, lately I’ve realised that my biggest challenge isn’t understanding my strategy. It’s fully trusting it when real money is on the line and sitting in uncertainty. I know what I’m looking for, but executing with the same confidence I have in backtesting is a completely different skill. So I’m wondering, what was the single biggest shift that took you from knowing your strategy to actually trusting it live? Not a technical tweak, but the mental shift. I’d genuinely love to hear everyone’s experience because I have a feeling this is where a lot of traders quietly struggle.

After I passed my evaluation, I thought I had already won the mental battle. Suddenly, I started treating every trade like it was life-changing money. I prayed every day, put pressure on myself, and forgot the process that got me there. I spent a month earning that funded opportunity as a beginner trader... and lost it in just two days. That hurt. But it taught me something far more valuable than the account itself. Sometimes the strongest move isn't taking another trade. It's stepping away for a day. Two days. Even a week if your mind needs it. Protect your psychology before you protect your P&L. Accounts can be replaced. A disciplined mindset is much harder to rebuild. Just a reminder: a trader who truly understands what they're doing wrong can become unstoppable—if they're willing to learn from it. But never forget: the market rewards discipline, not emotions. I was so lost after failing that I started looking for different solutions. I wanted to abandon the very strategy that had given me the opportunity to pass the evaluation in the first place. Looking back, that was a mistake. The problem wasn't the strategy—it was my mindset. Partly thanks to getting to know Mr. Vraz, a calm person who genuinely wants to help people improve, my perspective started to change. I'm still building my trading psychology, and I know that journey isn't over yet. That's exactly why I wanted to share this with all of you. I'd genuinely like to hear your perspective: How do you deal with losses? How do you reset mentally after blowing an account or going through a rough period? Personally, I took a full week away from trading. I focused on working out, went to the gym, took long walks even without having a car, and spent time reviewing my journal instead of chasing trades. Looking back, taking that break was one of the best decisions I could have made. The market will always be there tomorrow. Your mindset is what determines whether you'll still be there too.
