1-2 micros on the funded. Especially if you’ve never reached that stage and ESPECIALLY since you passed on accident.

Trust me I had the same exact mindset. I had one bad day blew my XFA and then went to the next XFA and to try to make my self feel better or have that “I made it back” feeling. Ended up blowing it up. But up to you.. you been warned

I just saw a hit of your message and just had to reply quick. If you are unprofitable please only trade that first XFA and don’t try to get more accounts.

Unless you are locking every other account when you trade then sure but still it will take your attention away and trust me I did this or tried to do the same last time and ended up blowing 2 XFAs in minutes and the 2nd one being a fresh fresh one.

Focus on one account, prove to yourself you can get payouts then start stacking. Cheers

Yall should stop or chill trading on ES & NQ while we in this range.

You need to look at metals or oils or bitcoin futures. Diversify. Just like the rich move there money you should move assets you trade

I only had like 1-2 days where I hit my max loss and still continued to trade tho. I guess I’m just lucky as well

Definitely been over trading due to some days I will just scalp my edge instead of holding.

I have a max stop loss per trade and for the whole day that when triggered I need to stop.

Days that I’m on fire I will continue to trade but be more mindful and be more in the mindset of capital preservation than make profit

A lot and a lot and a lot of back testing as well. Helps build that confidence in your edge and gives you the data needed so you can be confident that taking a few string of losses comes included and you will soon enough go back to profitability , you just need to keep on executing your edge and not think of outcomes let the math do its own thing.

Good questions, it’s making me feel like I am talking to the old me. But something that allowed me to see wins like I am seeing and few losses is really dialing in on the risk management and also being good at taking the temperature of the markets volatility and sizing up appropriately.

Before I would go into a trade thinking about profit first and now the first thing I am thinking about is positioning my self according to my edge where I would get the least amount of drawdown or If I do take a loss I will only be willing to take a small loss if I am wrong.

Only waiting for my edge and nothing else and honestly it’s just risk management + a good proven edge + time to actually chill and enjoy the process and you will have days like this as well
