I was on the verge of quitting after my terrible day with IGC.  I was up $9000 on the trade and got over excited and couldn't control my trading.  I told myself and the chat room I was done for the day.  Even the guru's told me to make no more trades that day.  I didn't listen to myself or anyone else and I lost it all and WAY more.  

I decided to take a step back for a while.  I still watched the markets and studied, watched webinars and daily videos etc.  But I wasn't sure if I was ever going to trade again or not.  

Then I started thinking about when I first joined the challenge.  I started with $2000 in my account and as you can see from my profit chart I was able to get it to 5k within a couple months and then 10k within a couple more months.  I realized that two years into the challenge I was WAY better off knowledge wise than when I first started.  So, I decided to go back to the beginning and set my account to $2000 again.  Since then, one month ago, I've been able to get back to over $3000.  I've made 12 trades in a month which is a HUGE improvement to when I first started trading.  I used to make a trade every day at least.  Out of my 12 trades this month 9 have been for wins and I've done a better job sticking to my plan.

I also need to keep in mind that my original goal with trading was to make $200-$500 a week max.  I don't need huge position sizes to meet that goal.  I am not opposed to making more than that but the moment I started trying for $500 a day I started losing control and forcing bad trades.

So, back to the beginning.  Position size should be between $2000 and $3000 per trade.  If I wait for the best setups I can hope for 10-20% wins which would be $200 to $400 per trade.  If I make 3 trades a week and 2 are wins that should be about $500 a week.  So, that's my plan for the time being.  

I posted this for my own records but if it's helpful to any of you, great!  Also feel free to ask me how it's going and/or hold me accountable.  
Thanks!
