I took a leap of faith and joined Bryan Mac's "Trading Axis" group. He has started a few great threads on this forum. I felt that trading and watching others trade the exact same system in a live group setting would give me the consistent success I strive for. I am going through my learning curve, and I have my first ITM to post. I'm using a demo account for a few days.
Here, price moved up and hit resistance. I had overbought confluence within the indicators, and won the trade. Dec 02, 22:19:22 GBP/USD 1.63649 1.63639 Dec 02, 22:25:00 ¢10.00 70% ¢17.00

I am still learning this new system, but I had to use real money. I hate using a demo account. I feel like I will be taking "Less than optimal" trades while on demo. So even at $1 per trade, I will still trade a lot more serious.
Clearly, I am still getting used to this new system. Here, I was looking for price to drop down from that resistance level. My Value chart at the bottom with the RSI was dropping,too. I thought I had a good trade upon entry, but the bulls were not done fighting to push up the price.

December sure can be slow. I do not have a trade today. But I did catch a winner Sunday night. The trading axis system looks for confluence with multiple signals before a trade is taken. In this trade, price reached outside the aqua level in the channel, the VC indicator at the bottom is showing oversold, and price was hitting a pivot point.

Here is a trade on gold that did not work out. I jumped into the trade one candle too soon. I was looking at an imaginary resistance level, but price moved on up to the real resistance. Also, down on the VC indocator, the system works better if the RSI and the VC gray candles turn green and get close to or touch the 92 level for a put trade. The biger hollow red arrow is my entry, the solid little arrow is a trade alert that sometimes pops up to indicate a trade opportunity is coming.
But I also have a winner to show, everything lined up according to plan on this one. This was a moving average crossover trade, like I used to take on my original system rules.

Two for Tuesday This chart looks like a close call, and a very tight win, but marketsworld gave me a favorable strike price. I tried to get my entry as close as I could at the top of that green candle.

Here is one beautiful trade before Friday morning USD news release in 40 minutes. I found price hitting a support level. I entered the trade right on that line of support at 103.500. The entry price was my key to winning 6 minutes later. Enjoy the weekend!

Alright traders, I really like this new system. The more I get over my old tendencies and follow the rules, the better it works. With that said, I am still learning the intricacies of it. I have a winner and a loser today. First, the loser. I took a put option when the daily high was lined up with the big red arrow showing my entry. I forgot that the daily high is only strong if price touches it two or three times. As you can see, price pushed the daily high level up and up, and I lost.

Patience pays off. The market is a little slow this time of year, but I still found a nice win this morning. Price found support at that prev weekly low yellow dashed line. The other indicators looked good for a reversal off of support, and I took the trade. The two RSI lines I have on the bottom make for a stronger signal when they move closer together, but I still liked the trade. That line of support held price a few times already.

Looks good, your timing is perfect. Is it your own meta-trader file? Would be nice to have one So how much have you made with this system now? You offer a signal service?
I forced a trade on gold today. It was a close one. Price was dropping pretty hard, but I saw some support happening at a fib level. I got lucky, but in the future, I should stay away from "waterfall" moves when candles are all one color. Price dropped so fast after I won, I had to wait another minute to get a screenshot to show a winning candle. It turned green for a moment, and I saved the picture. Then continued to drop soon after. Very lucky. I don't want to be lucky, I want to be wise.

All I can say is, check out the system Bryan McAfee put together called Trading Axis. He posts on this forum with the Robin Hood picture. You can then become your own signal service. Have a great weekend!!

As far as income goes, money management is vital. It also must match up with short or long term goals. That will be a little different for everyone. Here is one key to watch for in my posts. An account balance of $2000 can realistically expect to earn a little over $1000 per week by placing just 3 trades per day at $100 each trade. When my trades reach $100 per trade, you'll have a rough idea of what kind of money I am making.
I found a nice trade before the holiday slows everything down. Price hit resistance at a whole number level. The trade dropped down and gave me an easy ITM.
