Hello all! 

I just want to write a few words. Don't overtrade and be aware of your future!

What is doing your portfolio after 40 days without trading during 2021? 

I feel better than last year, from $6K my account reach $137k, between September and February 2021. Nearly two years after coming in the Tim challenge. A great time, with a great opportunity. 

But one thing, I was earning 3% or more and cut my loss very often at 1%. When my account sized up, I was so excited  that I increased my position, but I did not want to accept my deficit. Obviously, I could earn $10k a day but I did not take the loss of $1K. (1% of my portfolio) 

But unfortunately, the market dropped a lot and instead of losing $1K the position still falls to $3k to $9k until $10k... One position and a seconde one and third one.... and my portfolio decreased by 50%. 

By the way, I am deeply Catholic. I asked God to help me to stop overtrading. The answer was very clear. During 40 days, Easter lent, don’t trade! Gosh! You imagine it felt like the sky had fallen on me.

I have to manage my time without being in front of my screen all day long, in forex, options, courses and equities... A lot of time... 40 days... It's a long time.

I learnt to spend time with my daughter, to travel to Rome. I spent time writing a book and to manage my day without trading. I did it. 

Tuesday after Easter, I was ready to be in the market. But my mind changed, completely. I have so things to do I did not stay every day in my trading room. I need to see my family and my  kids. I felt good to do some shopping with her. I appreciated being with my husband in the restaurant. I shared my time with trading and writing. I did not trade every day. After time , the owner of my house obliged us to move up! So I let the trading sometimes two days and a week. It was not so important. Not crucial like before. I prefer to be in peace. 

 

My purpose and my fundation is to help women  (and men) after abortion. I am not a judge but I know that the consequencies are so struggle with the life after than I had to help them. I am mum with 3 kids, old woman, autism asperger, M.D, emergency, internal medecin accountancy, biology teacher, psychologiste with many masters and diplomas. But everything is not important, the faith makes me be happy for each second of my life, good and bad moments. So youll want understanding me, have a look of the film " the chosen"! It will change your life and the spirit. Have a good day trading. Talithanne4U
