I'm going to explain why a slow and steady trading approach is your best chance of success to be a full time forex trader or prop firm trader? Let's get into that and more right now. Hey there, traders. It's Andrew Mitchem here, the owner of the Forex Trading Coach. With Video and podcast number 526. Why a slow & steady trading style is best. Now I want to talk about a slow and steady approach to trading You see in life right now everybody's fast pace wants action, wants instant results. Everything's available on your phone. No one can wait any longer. Everybody wants things now. Now, now, now. All the time. And the danger with that is that when it comes to the reality of trading, well. Most people, unfortunately, take that same approach. They want to be a multimillionaire next week. They want to pass a firm challenge within two days. They want to you know, how much do I need, Andrew, in order to give up my job and make $10,000 a month? You know, everybody always wants that that instant result and answer without doing the prior work. My background really helps. Now, I'm quite fortunate in many ways. One, I'm a little bit older. But two, I come from a farming background, and I think that has been a massive help for my own trading because you realize in farming that consistently doing things properly and planning and a slow and steady approach whilst always having an eye on the future and never being stuck in your ways is a really good way of farming successfully. You have to turn up, You have to do things consistently as a dairy farmer. You have to milk the cash twice a day. You know, you have to be planting crops at the right time. You have to be doing things. It doesn't matter whether it's raining or it's Christmas Day or your birthday or you're not feeling well, you have to show up. And so that consistency is is absolutely vital, I believe, to success. And as a trader, that consistency of constantly showing up is also vital as well. Karate & Flying. Now, other things that have helped me personally and I hope can help you. I've studied karate for many years and again, that slow, steady, consistent, repeatable approach is what gets you from being a white belt through to a black belt. You're not going to get there instantly. You're not going to go and watch a whole heap of videos and suddenly, wham, next week you're a black belt. That doesn't happen. It's that consistency, that hard work, that dedication. As many of you know, I also own and fly helicopter. The same thing applies. You cannot go out there and do like five lessons and suddenly go and fly one of the most difficult machines on the planet, the race to fly, you know. So you have to be slow, steady, consistent, show up, do the hard work, and then the rewards follow. Raising a large family. And you also may know we've got five children. So same thing. You know, a lot of hard work, a lot of dedication, a lot of consistency through bringing up five children. And now more recently, I'm learning to play the guitar exactly the same thing. I cannot go and stand on stage within 5 minutes. You know, you have to learn the whole basics and get better and better and more practice and you learn to go up and then you have a few down days or weeks and then you go another level again. So that consistency turning up. So whatever we do in life,

Good trading does not need to be complicated. Don't forget, the wheel is simply round and it works. So let's talk about that and more right now. Hey, there traders! Andrew Mitchem here at the Forex trading Coach with video and podcast number 528. Don’t make trading harder than it needs to be. I want to talk about a topic that a lot of people get stuck in their minds and they think that trading needs to be overcomplicated. They think it needs to be difficult and they get this, I suppose, perception by thinking that like it's something only the pros do or it's something you need to be in a 50 story, you know, tower block in London or Dubai or New York or something, and you need to walk around in a big flash suit and shirt and tie in order to be a good trader. And so I think people get the impression that you need all these complicated systems and algorithms and things going on and insider knowledge of what's happening in order to do well at trading. And the reality is you don't need any of that to do well at trading. You need a simple and solid strategy. Well, you need a good, simple, solid strategy that works. And like most simple things, they work. Again, like I said, think of the wheel. Don't reinvent the wheel. It's round. It's simple. It cannot be more any more simple. And it works. You know. Other examples. I love cooking. So what's my favorite medium to cook on? You know, you can have all your electrics and gases and all the rest of it. Fire is with that that the best in terms of enjoyment and certainly taste and flavor. You know to cook on fire and charcoal. Nothing beats it. And why? Because it works. And why? Because it's simple. Trading is exactly the same. The 3 things that can happen in the market. Now, putting it in absolute basics. What can happen in the market? In any currency pair, any market, It's going to go up. It's going to go down. It might go a bit sideways, a bit rangebound. That's really all that can happen. So the market's going sideways. Okay. Rangebound generally for the way I trade means there's no trades there because I'm looking predominately at candle pattern and that's my initial set up is the candle. If it's rangebound, there's nothing, you know, there's no prior indecision. It's just going flat. It's not over bought. It’s not oversold. it's got a trend line break. So therefore no trade. Very easy just to move on to the next market. The 2 basic patterns we trade. And so we look at two quite basic and quite simple patterns, and we look for continuation patterns and we look for reversal patterns. And so those two are really when it comes down to it, all we teach and all we trade and it's all we've ever taught and traded because they work, because they're simple, they're easy to identify. Now when I go through and look at trades that have been successful and I go through our forum site, I go through our webinars. I go to our daily trades and I analyze my trades and I go back and look at the trades that have been really good. They pretty much all take all the boxes of what we're looking for a successful trade. Trading is a probability, not a guarantee. So trading is not a guarantee, it's a probability just because the patterns worked for the last five times and you see it again,
