Phenomenal stack, the time and effort put in this one is incredible will need to reread a few time to fully absorb everything.

Thanks a lot Martin and Kyna

A lot of ‘hidden’ work goes into each stack! Much more than people think, which is why the best guests are also proper TTRH readers.

Many thanks, Jun :)

Fantastic article Kyna & Martin - i greatly appreciate the detail shared.

Just to further cement the learning process thats discussed, Mike Webster often talks about William O'Neils process of building a model book in his WRO series on Youtube. WON used to study a complete chart after the move, and mark "X" as the best entry and "Y" as the exit. However if studying charts this way, you'll miss out on the fluctuations of bar-by-bar practice; the big gap ups, the undercuts that run your stops, the multiple attempts to get positioned that it will likely take...the benefits of 'going deep' are great and readily available these days as Martin mentioned

I can also completely emphasise with Martins comments on his discord server that he used to save charts too. I've build a pretty good model over the last few years, but always struggle to find the balance between revisiting and studying past charts and doing other things. Currently using some blocked time on my calendar every week to so, but with mixed success!

Thank you, Simon! When you say you have mixed success with the blocked time, do you mean you're not finding the benefit? Or struggling with the discipline of actually going through your model books? Curious to hear your experiences!

Definitely opened up another perspective of deep dives, love how Martin is very targeted, I always force myself to study charts that at one look I just go like its shit(but yet was a winner)- my mindset was fixed and really glued to " if I want to know how to trade winners, I have to study ALL winners", but I see that Martin is really targeted and he diagnoses his own problems, not just taking a general prescription which is definitely a key takeaway for me- Not just trying to get better but targeted practise.

Thank you Martin and Kyna!
