5 months into my trading journey; lot of ups and downs along the way, showing me the reward for hard work and discipline, but also the consequences of over excitement and poor risk managrment with my trades. Every red day has been a wake up call to study harder and be more discipled with trades, and every green day is a challenge to not get over excited or distracted. Just as an encouragement to others, hard work and discipline pays off. Don't loose focus of your goal, keep going!
been a student for all most two weeks, had few a good trades, but more bad trades down $2400 from 5k... have to study more and make less trades for now!
I feel you man. I started in August and after a few hard losses
I had to take some time off to study. And the studying continues!
since then ive been doing alot better, i studied more, and stuck to the rules a lot more!
I'm being very careful with my trades, if I see no perfect pattern its a no trade for me.
Thanks, I mean I had the same thing last week with $DRYS where I took the lost above my risk and then it flew 40 cents later on, emotionally I wanted to make profits else where because it really sucked, same thing today, SPWH lost I just wanted to be green on the day which only leads to impulsive acts.. I know I'm trying this "no pattern no trade" mentality also it's just that I have a problem when I lose I don't accept it :/ I have to get my shit together because 4/8 of my trades were fueled b
4/8 of my trades were fueled by this problem of mine
I lost $380 today on SPWH waiting for a late spike which turned to a dip. Lesson learned the hard way
@JMcWealth just became a fully transparent trader today!
