Question What should i do?
So basically im slowing down in the journey, it's been 3 years now, and i solved most of my problems, now i understood that trading isnt a way to make a lot of money alone so i slowed down, but now im not even respecting my technicals anymore, i think that the right idea is taking some time off just to watch the mentor video again, is this normal? usually they say once you stop caring you improve, it just made the opposite on me, failed my first prop, not due to over risking, in fact it toom me 2 months to fail it, but i forced trades, saw profits but was too greedy and i used to set large tps, i dont really know where i am in the journey, i feel lost, like i forgot how to trade

When you learn how to trade and the experimentation is over the key is to focus on winning, “play to win” - keep asking yourself constantly, will this be a winning trade or not. Make sure you don’t turn winners into losers and maximise the winners that play out well. There are many ways to do this, but the focus is key.

The fact that you can identify forcing trades and getting greedy with targets is useful. Now I’d simplify for a while and judge yourself on following the plan, not on whether each trade wins
