The TMM team really appreciates each participant for all the lovely reviews we’ve got! And Thank you for sticking with us this year 🧡🧡🧡

​Distribution of profits/losses by coins are one of the most popular widgets in the TMM journal.

The strategy for working with these widgets is very simple yet powerful:

— The “Distribution of profits by coin” widget will help you determine which coins bring you the most profit and focus on them while future trading.

— The widget “Distribution of losses by coins” will help you determine which coins bring you the most losses and exclude them.

In addition, pay attention to coins that do not bring significant benefits. Yes, when trading them, you do not lose or earn anything, but do not lose sight of the fact that you waste a lot of your time and resources on such trades.

With the help of the Pencil tool, you can customize the widget by filtering it by date, API key, day of the week, and entry reasons. The possibilities for your analysis and strategizing are endless!

The video showed how to use the widget detailed👆

But you should remember that the widget is just a tool that highlights where you are weak or strong. Analyze further and deeper! Let's assume that you have the most unprofitable coin X. Explore this coin’s trades - what were your entering reasons? How did you feel while making the trades? What was the market like? Did you draw a conclusion on the trade to find out the reason for the failure? With just a few clicks, you can add all this data for each trade, and then analyze it, which will help you increase your trading tenfold.

How to determine your most profitable or unprofitable day or even the exact time?

This post will help you:

a) find your "effective time" ⇒ leave more time for rest ⇒ rested trader = successful trader

b) multiply your trading.

How? With the help of two cool widgets in our magazine:

1. "Profit by days of the week" will show in the context of the days where you make more profitable or lose trades.
2. "Profit by the time of day" will show by an hour where your most profitable or lost trades are.

How to add them to your journal and use them as efficiently as possible was shown in the video 👆

Using widgets, you will clearly see what day and time you can afford to break away from the charts without losing efficiency (and even to improve trading results!). Go for a coffee, meet friends or watch a terrific movie. It could be about trading to get motivation for a new trading day. Here goes a set for you - www.instagram.com/p/Cck-XdtITsa

Focus on those days/times when you have the maximum profit. But remember to also evaluate what kind of trades you made, what the market was like, and why you entered the trade - and amplify it!

​4 Ways to Use "Entry reasons"

The" Entry Reasons" feature allows you to categorize your trades for further analysis.

1️⃣ You can and should use them directly for their intended purpose and create an entry reason category - triggers, because of which you decide to enter a trade or not. For example, "trading with the trend," "catching knives," etc.

But in addition to this, you can track other points along with the reasons for entering:

2️⃣Your emotions during the trading: create your tags, for example, "tired," "upset," etc. The main thing is to develop enough standard states in advance for the grouping to work.

3️⃣Fear. Traders often trade out of fear of missing out, especially new ones. Therefore, create a "fear of missing out" tag (FOMO). Each time you add this tag to a trade, you will begin to think about entering the trade and look for additional confirmation patterns to complete it.

When you analyze trades later, you can track how this fear affected your profits. Was the trade successful, or did you step on the rake again and fall for the trend?

4️⃣ Trading strategies. For example, Order book trading" or "Scalping on chart patterns." Thanks to this, you can determine a more profitable trading strategy.

____

Your task is not just to put a tag and leave thoughtlessly to make trades. Instead, your job is to analyze the experience gained. To do this, use the widget "Profit by Entry Reasons."

#sundaypsychology

The Dunning-Kruger effect is a good example of a new trader's journey in the market. Especially when a trader got to the market at the right time, that short stage when both averaging and grid trading work and much more forgives the market.

"the tendency of people who have a very low level of competence in a certain area to significantly overestimate their capabilities, which leads to ignorance, fraught with baseless self-confidence."

This theory has nothing to do with trading, but any experienced trader looking at this chart will see their path in the market in it.

For beginners, I want to advise never to consider yourself "riding" the market. Withdraw profits, calculate risks and always stay on guard. So that the hollow of the valley of despair does not destroy your desire to trade, and the reserve deposit allows you to use your experience in the future.

​What better day to evaluate your trading performance? It’s a Friday when the markets are winding down for the week.

So, today is a great time to pause, analyze your trading, and enjoy the results of the week. A trading journal is one of the most effective tools for tracking your trading progress. The good one should include detailed notes on each trade you make, including the entry and exit points, the size of the position, the reasoning behind the trade, and any other relevant information.
_

Here are some key aspects that you should pay attention to when analyzing your trading journal:

1. Win/Loss Ratio: This is the number of winning trades compared to losing trades. It's essential to track this ratio over time to see if you're consistently profitable or if you need to adjust your strategies.

📌 Use Percentage of Winning Trades & Percentage of Losing Trades widgets

2. Average Gain/Loss: This is the average size of your winning trades compared to your losing trades. Ideally, your average gain should be larger than your average loss, indicating that your winning trades are more profitable than your losing trades.

📌 Use Payoff Ratio & Profit factor widgets

3. Risk-to-Reward Ratio: This is the ratio of your potential profit to your potential loss on each trade. A good risk-to-reward ratio is typically around 2:1 or higher, indicating that you're aiming for at least twice as much profit as a potential loss.

📌 Join TMM telegram-bot to get notifications when risk management is violated

4. Trade Frequency: This is the number of trades you make over a given period of time. It's important to track this to ensure that you're not over-trading or under-trading.

📌 Use the “Diary” section

5. Trading Psychology: Analyzing your emotions and behavior during each trade is crucial. Were you too hesitant to enter a trade or too quick to exit? Did you let fear or greed influence your decisions? Identifying patterns in your trading psychology can help you make more informed decisions in the future.

📌 Use Entry reasons to monitor your emotions

Regularly reviewing and analyzing your trading journal can identify areas where you need to improve, refine your strategies, and ultimately become a more successful trader. So, take some time on Fridays to review your trades and make adjustments where necessary.

Start using the "Expected value" and "Profit Factor" widgets, for a more effective analysis. They allow you to evaluate the effectiveness of a trading strategy quickly.

The Expected value Widget calculates each trade's average win or loss and displays the total Expectation for all trades.

For example, one’s trading system allows him to make $1,000 in 60% of cases and lose $500 in the remaining 40%. Then the Expected value of his winnings is:

(0.6 * $1000) + (0.4 * -$500) = $400

This means that, on average, each trade will bring the trader a profit of $400. Of course, the results may differ in practice, but in the long run, it can be used to evaluate the trading system and make decisions about its further use. It is also worth considering that the Expected value can change depending on the summ and the level of risk, so you should consider all these factors.

The Profit Factor widget, in turn, calculates the total win to total loss ratio and displays it on a chart. This allows to determine how profitable a trader's strategy is in the long run.

Profit Factor = Wins / Losses

For example, if a trader earned $10,000 in the last month and lost $5,000, then the profit factor would be:

$10,000 / $5,000 = 2

This means that each win is twice the loss. The higher the profit factor, the more profitable the trading system is considered.

____

Both of these widgets are available in our trading journal and will automatically analyze your past trades. The video shows how to add them to your journal👆

Using these widgets will allow you to quickly evaluate your results and make informed decisions about further trading. However, it is worth remembering that these widgets are not the only tool for analyzing trading results, and it is essential to take into account other indicators as well, such as the percentage of winning trades, the average win and loss, and others - you can easily track these indicators in our trading journal TMM💸

​Special TMM widgets for identifying the most promising coins based on your trades🔥

Using these widgets can significantly simplify the analysis of your trading results and help identify promising coins for future trading:

1️⃣ Distribution by coin. The widget itself may not seem very useful, but by using settings, such as filtering profitable or losing trades, interesting patterns can be identified, and the advantages of certain coins over others can be determined.

2️⃣ Distribution of profits/losses by coin. With these widgets, you can identify the most profitable or losing coins, allowing you to understand which coins to focus on and which may require a change of strategy or exclusion from trading.

3️⃣ Volume per symbol. This widget displays the approximate volume of money in a trade. It is counted as the sum of contracts multiplied by the average entry point.

4️⃣ Average volume by symbol. Average volume per trade. The calculation multiplies the peak volume value by the average entry price.
📌 Tracking Average volume by symbol allows the trader to manage the risks associated with their trades. By knowing the volume of their trades, the trader can better allocate their funds between different cryptocurrencies and control their portfolio.

5️⃣ Distribution of profits by coin. A widget that demonstrates the most profitable and losing coins in your portfolio.

6️⃣ Profit factor per symbol. This is the result of the ratio of the total number of all trades that brought profit to the sum of unprofitable trades over a specific time interval. (total profit divided by total loss). Values above one (1.6 for more confidence) indicate the profitability of the trading strategy.

7️⃣ Average duration per symbol. The widget displays how long it takes, on average, for a specific coin to close a trade in minutes. This can help determine which coins have higher liquidity and are closed faster in trades.

Using special widgets to analyze your trades is a powerful tool that allows you to delve into market understanding and identify the most promising coins. They optimize your trading strategy, improve your results, and reduce the level of risk.

Confirmation bias is a cognitive bias that affects people's ability to make rational decisions. It refers to the tendency of individuals to look for information that confirms their pre-existing beliefs while ignoring evidence that contradicts them. This bias can have a significant impact on the decision-making process, especially for traders who rely on information to make investment decisions.

Confirmation bias can also lead to:

- Traders rely heavily on information to make informed decisions about when to buy or sell. However, confirmation bias can lead them to seek out information that confirms their existing beliefs while ignoring contradictory evidence. For example, if a trader is convinced that a particular cryptocurrency is going to increase in value, they may only look for information that supports this view, while ignoring any information that suggests the opposite.

This approach to decision-making can be detrimental to the trader's success. By only seeking out information that confirms their existing beliefs, they may miss critical information that could affect their investment decisions. For example, they may ignore news about regulatory changes or security breaches that could impact the value of a cryptocurrency.

- Confirmation bias can also lead to a lack of diversification. If a trader is convinced that a particular coin is a sure thing, they may become overly stuck on that asset. This approach can lead to substantial losses if the asset fails to perform as expected.

📌  To overcome confirmation bias, traders should be aware of their own biases and actively seek out contradictory evidence. They should also be open to changing their beliefs based on new information. This approach can help them make more informed decisions and improve their overall success as traders.

❗️In conclusion, confirmation bias can significantly impact the decision-making process of traders. By actively seeking out contradictory evidence and being open to changing their beliefs based on new information, traders can overcome this bias and make more informed investment decisions.

As a trader, it's important to develop the habit of analyzing your trades to continually improve your strategy and increase profits. However, many traders struggle to make analyzing their trades a habit. Here are some simple steps to make analyzing your trades a regular practice.


1. Set your goals
Before you start analyzing your trades, it's important to set your goals. What do you want to achieve through analyzing your trades? Do you want to identify your strengths and weaknesses? Do you want to improve your profitability? Whatever your goals may be, make sure they are clear and specific.

2. Create a reporting system
To make analyzing your trades easier, create a reporting system. This can be as simple as a spreadsheet or a more advanced trading journal software. The important thing is to track your trades consistently so you can identify patterns and make informed decisions.

3. Set a regular analysis schedule
Make analyzing your trades a habit by setting a regular analysis schedule. This can be daily, weekly, or monthly, depending on your trading frequency. Stick to your schedule and make analyzing your trades a priority.

4. Evaluate your trades not only quantitatively, but also qualitatively
When analyzing your trades, it's important to evaluate them not only quantitatively, but also qualitatively. This means looking beyond the numbers and examining your thought process, emotions, and decision-making. Ask yourself questions like: What was my rationale for entering this trade? Did I follow my trading plan? How did I feel during the trade?

5. Apply insights to your trading
Once you have analyzed your trades, apply the insights you have gained to your trading. This may mean adjusting your trading strategy, identifying new opportunities, or avoiding common mistakes.

6. Track your progress
To see how you are progressing as a trader, track your progress. Customize your Summary page with widgets that will visually demonstrate all your trading, including distribution by coins, your best and worst time to trade, profits, and much more.

7. Learn from the experience of others
Learn from the experience of others by chatting in trading communities or following successful traders on social media. This can provide valuable insights and help you avoid common mistakes.

8. Don't be afraid of mistakes
Finally, don't be afraid of mistakes. They are a natural part of trading and can provide valuable learning opportunities. Embrace them, learn from them, and use them to improve your trading.

_
In conclusion, analyzing your trades can be the key to success as a trader. By setting goals, creating a reporting system, setting a regular analysis schedule, evaluating your trades qualitatively and quantitatively, applying insights to your trading, tracking your progress, learning from the experience of others, and embracing mistakes, you can make analyzing your trades a habit and achieve your trading goals.

Understanding the Herding Behavior of Crypto Traders

Herding behavior refers to the tendency of individuals to follow the actions of a larger group, rather than making independent decisions. In the context of crypto trading, this means that many traders will buy or sell a particular coin simply because they see others doing the same, without necessarily understanding the underlying fundamentals of the asset.

❓There are a few reasons why herding behavior is so prevalent in the world of cryptocurrency.

1. One of the main reasons is the highly volatile and unpredictable nature of the market. The value of cryptocurrencies can rise or fall rapidly in response to news events, government regulations, or simply market sentiment. This volatility can create a sense of panic or FOMO (fear of missing out) among traders, leading them to follow the actions of others.

2. Additionally, social media platforms like Twitter and Reddit have become popular forums for discussing and sharing trading strategies, which can further amplify herd mentality.

3. Finally, the relative lack of regulation in the cryptocurrency market can also contribute to herding behavior. Without clear guidelines or oversight, traders may feel uncertain about the legitimacy of a particular coin or exchange. This uncertainty can lead them to follow the actions of others, rather than making independent decisions based on their own research and analysis.

However, while herding behavior may be understandable from a psychological standpoint, it can also be dangerous for individual investors. Following the crowd can lead to buying or selling at the wrong time, and can cause prices to become even more volatile. In some cases, it can even lead to market bubbles and crashes.

_

This type of behavior is not unique to the world of cryptocurrencies. In fact, there are many historical examples of herding behavior in other financial markets. One well-known example is the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s. During this time, many investors poured money into internet companies, driving up their stock prices to unsustainable levels. When the bubble burst in 2000, many of these companies went bankrupt, and investors suffered significant losses.

Another example of herding behavior can be seen in the housing market leading up to the 2008 financial crisis. In the years before the crisis, many people bought homes they couldn't afford, often using risky subprime mortgages. As more and more people did this, housing prices soared, creating a sense of FOMO among those who hadn't yet bought a home. When the housing market collapsed, many people were left with homes they couldn't sell and mortgages they couldn't afford.

In the context of cryptocurrencies, herding behavior can be seen in the rapid rise and fall of Bitcoin prices in 2017. During this time, many investors bought Bitcoin simply because they saw others doing so, leading to a dramatic increase in its value. However, when the market corrected, many of these investors panicked and sold their coins, causing the price to plummet.

👆 To avoid falling victim to herding behavior

1. It’s important for crypto traders to stay informed about the fundamentals of the assets they are trading. This means doing research on the technology behind the coin, as well as keeping up with news and market trends.
2. Additionally, it's important to maintain a level head and avoid making emotional decisions based on the actions of others.

In conclusion, herding behavior is a natural tendency among crypto traders, but it's important to be aware of its potential pitfalls. By staying informed and making independent decisions, traders can avoid getting swept up in the herd mentality and make smarter investments in the long run.

#psychology_TMM

Hey fellow traders, let's dive into the topic of the fear of missing out (FOMO) and how it can impact our trading decisions. We have all been there, looking at the market and seeing cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin soaring above $30,000 or Ethereum crossing $2,000, and feeling the pressure to join in on the hype and not miss out on a potentially profitable trade. However, it's important to remember that FOMO can be one of the most dangerous enemies of successful trading and can lead to irrational and costly decisions.

Let's take a look at some examples of FOMO in action.
- In 2017, during the ICO boom, many investors succumbed to FOMO and invested in projects with dubious prospects and no clear strategy. As a result, most of these projects failed, and investors were left empty-handed.
- Another example is the GameStop (GME) surge in January 2021, where many investors bought shares at inflated prices due to FOMO, only to suffer losses when the market stabilized and the share price fell.

So, how can we avoid falling into the FOMO trap and make rational trading decisions?

1. First and foremost, it's crucial to recognize our emotions and understand when they are taking over our decisions. By identifying the moments when FOMO puts pressure on us, we can separate emotions from market analysis and avoid making hasty decisions.

📌 One great way to track our emotions is to use "Entry Reasons" in our trading journal.

2. Secondly, we need to follow our strategy based on goals and entry/exit criteria. This helps us maintain clarity of thought and make decisions based on analysis rather than emotions. It's important not to deviate from our strategy, even if other investors or the news are talking about a booming asset. Remember, FOMO can come from a huge amount of information and opinions.

3. Thirdly, it's crucial not to compare ourselves to others. Everyone has their own strategy, financial situation, and risk tolerance. We should focus on our own goals and successes rather than what others are doing.

4. Fourthly, we need to take breaks and rest. Crypto trading can be stressful, and it's important to take some time away from the market and news. This helps us conserve energy and maintain emotional balance.

5. Lastly, keeping a trading journal is vital. It allows us to write down our thoughts, decisions, and plans, serving as a great reminder of our strategy and helping us stay sane during volatile periods in the market.

📌 In the Notes section of our trading journal, we can write down our thoughts, decisions, and plans, making it easier to keep a cool head and minimize risks.

In summary, by following these guidelines, we can minimize the impact of FOMO on our trading decisions and achieve success in crypto trading. Remember, trading is a long-term game, and it's important to remain rational and make informed decisions. Happy trading!

​How to Improve Your Trading Skills by Managing Your Emotions

You already know that knowledge and strategy are essential for successful trading, but that's not all! To become a pro, ask yourself the following questions:

1️⃣ How do you react to failure?
It's important to understand that setbacks are an inevitable part of the process. To cope with them, you need to be able to analyze your mistakes, accept them, and learn from them. What sets apart a pro from a novice is their attitude toward mistakes. The former skillfully draws lessons from them, while the latter becomes fearful of making a loss again.

2️⃣ How disciplined are you?
You must be able to set boundaries and stick to them. Don't let trading take over your life, and take care of your health, as your endurance and mental agility directly affect your decision-making.

3️⃣ Who and what do you surround yourself with?
Your environment can significantly impact your trading performance. Connect with experienced traders, listen to their advice, but always remain critical of the information you receive. Also, make sure to create an ideal working environment where you can fully focus on the task at hand without any distractions.

4️⃣ How flexible are you in making decisions?
The market is constantly changing, and you must be adaptable to new conditions. Be open to experimenting with new tools and approaches, and don't be afraid to change your tactics when necessary.

5️⃣ What is your inner voice saying?
Learn to manage your emotions and thoughts. Develop a system of affirmations and beliefs to help you stay calm and confident during difficult situations.

📌 The samurai used to take seven breaths before making any decisions during challenging situations. Consider adopting this practice as it can save you from making impulsive decisions.

Good luck to everyone trading!
