Chronicles of A Struggling Trader: Episode 1. 

Yes, it’s me. I am a trader, a struggling one. I started with Sykes in May 2023. I started off doing well, around +$300, but didn’t learn my lesson. I overtraded, I made bad decisions, I didn’t focus on one consistent strategy, I made stupid decisions. Now, I’m at ~-$2,100. 

The only strategy I can consistently trade is swing trading due to job and family. I still struggle to get it right. However, I’ve found that if I stay focused, I can profit as well as control losses. I just have trouble not being a degenerate gambler and trying to get ahead the wrong way. 

Will I make it out alive? Will I live to see another trade?

These are my experiences. These are the chronicles of a struggling trader…
