Great question, Percival! 👊 And it's actually a really important one when it comes to building consistency with your trading. The key is to distinguish between a setup you're watching and a trade you've already entered. If you're watching a setup and it carries into the next trading day, I would recommend reassessing it before taking an entry rather than automatically following yesterday's plan. Here's how I'd approach it: 1. Recheck your long-term plan area. Is price still in a valid area, and does your directional bias still make sense? 2. Look for a valid short-term market shift. Don't assume yesterday's confirmation is automatically sufficient today. 3. Verify your entry, stop loss, and profit target. Make sure the setup still meets the strategy's risk-to-reward requirements. 4. Stick to your trading hours. If you've decided to trade between 6 AM and 4 PM, there's no reason to chase a setup at 3 AM just because price returned to your zone. If you're already in an active trade, that's a different situation. You should follow your predetermined trade management rules rather than restarting the entry process simply because the date changed. Also, be mindful of any overnight position restrictions from your broker or prop firm. Remember, the goal isn't to catch every opportunity. It's to execute a repeatable process consistently. Kyle emphasizes that where you trade and when you trade are just as important as the entry pattern itself. I'd encourage you to revisit the Day Trading Strategy Cliff Notes. And since you're still paper trading, this is a great opportunity to track how these overnight setups perform compared with setups that develop entirely during your preferred trading hours. Keep practicing and asking questions like this! That's how you develop discipline and confidence. 💪

Hey Mike! Quite a few community members use the Echo Trade Copier to copy trades from one account across multiple accounts. One of its advantages is that it also supports copying trades across accounts from different Funded Firms, provided those accounts are compatible with Echo Trader. https://app.echotrader.io/

What kind of trading strategy are you using that requires a Stop Loss of only 0.50 points? That seems like an extremely tight Stop Loss, leaving very little room for normal market fluctuations before getting stopped out. I'd be curious to understand your strategy and the reasoning behind such a tight Stop Loss.

@Percival Peters You're identifying two important issues here: the accuracy of your entry placement and the amount of breathing room you're allowing the trade. Both matter when setting up a high risk-to-reward entry. First, using your phone can absolutely make it harder to position the entry and stop-loss tools accurately. I'd encourage you to practice these adjustments in simulation until you're comfortable with the placement. How much breathing room should you allow? There isn't one universal point value that works for every high risk-to-reward entry. It depends on the instrument you're trading, the candle structure, and market volatility. Here's how I would approach it: 1. Identify your entry candle and market structure. Make sure the setup meets the strategy requirements before placing anything. 2. Position your stop loss beyond the relevant structure. Rather than placing it directly on the candle's high or low, allow enough room for normal price movement. The appropriate buffer depends on the instrument and setup. 3. Check your risk-to-reward ratio. Kyle's Superman model emphasizes having potential winning trades worth at least twice the amount risked, meaning a minimum planned 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio. 4. Don't force the setup. If allowing the necessary breathing room makes the reward-to-risk ratio unattractive, it's better to pass on the trade than artificially tighten your stop. For example, if your stop-loss distance is 10 points, a 2:1 setup would require a profit target at least 20 points away, before accounting for trading costs. That's an illustration, not a recommended 10-point stop.

Great questions, Percival! 👊 And it's awesome that you're already getting comfortable with TradingView and thinking ahead about the next phase! The good news is that moving from paper trading to a prop firm doesn't necessarily mean you have to completely change how you analyze the markets. Here's how it works: 1. TradingView vs. prop firm platforms 📊 You can generally continue using TradingView for your chart analysis, drawing zones, and identifying setups. The main difference is that when you move to a prop firm, you'll execute trades through whichever trading platform that firm supports. Some firms support TradingView integrations, while others use platforms like Tradovate, NinjaTrader, or other trading software. So your chart analysis and your trade execution don't necessarily have to happen in the same place! 2. What about your indicators and zones? 🎯 If you continue using your same TradingView account, your saved chart layouts, indicators, and drawings can generally remain available. That means you shouldn't have to start drawing all your zones from scratch every day. However, if you switch to a different charting platform, your TradingView drawings and custom indicators may not transfer automatically. 3. How do alerts work? 🔔 You're correct that TradingView's Bar Replay has limitations when it comes to alerts. When you're analyzing live market data, though, you can create alerts at specific price levels or conditions. For example: - Identify your higher-timeframe trading zone. - Set an alert near that zone. - Let TradingView notify you when price approaches. - Open your chart and look for the short-term market shift and entry confirmation. This is a great way to avoid staring at charts all day! Just remember, an alert is a notification, not an automatic trade execution unless you've separately configured supported automation. 4. What changes psychologically? 🧠 This is probably the biggest difference! When you move from paper trading into a prop firm evaluation, you're still typically trading in a simulated environment, but now there are evaluation fees, profit targets, and drawdown rules involved.
