⚠️ WHY TRADERS LOSE MONEY EVEN WHEN THEIR DIRECTION IS RIGHT
A common futures trading mistake is entering too early.
Imagine $BTC approaches resistance.
You expect a breakout and immediately open a LONG. But price briefly moves above resistance, traps buyers, and reverses.
Here's a better approach:
1️⃣ Identify the important level on 4H/1H.
2️⃣ Wait for a completed 15M breakout candle.
3️⃣ Look for a successful retest.
4️⃣ Use 5M to refine your entry.
5️⃣ Place your stop where the setup becomes invalid.
A retest improves confirmation, but it never guarantees success.
What's your biggest challenge: early entries or holding losing trades?
