Thanks for sharing your journey, I find that most trading setups work best in particular markets. If we can find a good trading setup for trending and/or range/consolidated markets and know when to use them, it should hopefully cut out some of the losses. Some are unavailable due to news/reporting, but any advantage we can get helps.
