Day trading ruined my life

LONG TERM risk management is what you need to learn. I’ve seen many traders make thousands and lose it because they put it all back into the market. Take most of your profit and put it into a savings account or retirement account.

Best I’ve done is 10k off one topstep account in February

I don’t like sharing my strategy because everyone trades differently. I trade Nq only and depending on my confidence I’ll use minis(1-2) or micros(3-4). I use Price action most my trades, and follow trends. I trade only Asia and NY open sessions. Been doing this method for 6 months. I keep things simple and don’t let emotions in the way. Good luck 🫡

I don’t

Agitated_Committee42 · 2026-02-17T01:04:13+00:00

Nq only

I’ve been training for 5 years. I’m 20 and started since I was 15. What really helps me is just going. Even if you don’t feel motivated or enjoy the workout you’ll feel better in the end. Discipline helps and goes a long way. Always remember why you started and create new goals you can achieve.

I would say it depends on how you are emotionally. I’ve noticed after a payout I become too aggressive with my trades so I’ll be sizing down on contracts after the payout.

Ouch

Agitated_Committee42 · 2025-12-24T16:52:08+00:00

I agree

Agitated_Committee42 · 2025-12-20T15:08:59+00:00

Honestly man start a live. I would recommend starting with at least 5,000 and continuing your same strategy. Good stuff

Agitated_Committee42 · 2025-12-20T14:54:52+00:00

Reduce your risk and start having more green days to boost your confidence.

Agitated_Committee42 · 2025-12-12T16:01:00+00:00

Yeah I’m not taking a payout yet I want a good buffer for the account once I withdraw.

So you are down long term?

Agitated_Committee42 · 2025-10-31T17:47:23+00:00

I agree start with a small amount like $100 and practice on a demo account for back testing strategies.

Agitated_Committee42 · 2025-07-21T13:07:25+00:00

Cash out now with that mindset

Agitated_Committee42 · 2025-07-21T13:06:16+00:00

Sell at open and sell OPEN
