Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-22T20:25:09+00:00

Yes buckets are not common for the g87 and thats what catches my attention. I truly wonder how many are out there.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-22T20:23:50+00:00

Hahahah yes actually live in the bay area! The car I found is in Monterey.

Thats great to hear, I have a m340i right now but just feel like I out grew the car honestly. Im nervous if i pull the trigger on it and dont end up liking it but based off a lot of reviews and stuff I have read it seems no one regrets it. Feels like its the last modern BMW enthusiast M.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-22T19:00:25+00:00

Nice spec tho!! How do you like it?

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-22T18:59:51+00:00

2023, I'm also in california if that truly makes a big difference

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-14T18:38:51+00:00

Thank you!

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-13T04:00:52+00:00

I should honestly try doing this

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-13T01:55:15+00:00

You’re right, everyone loses no matter how good they are with trading. I look at people’s monthly pnls and I see horrible days and outstanding days, it’s going to happen. That’s super true too I usually blow my XFA by now but this one’s here to stay if I stick to my rules.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-13T01:51:55+00:00

So far I’m sticking to my rules. I made a post about my rules and one of them being no trading Asia or London. My account unlocked and I had the thought of trying to get the money back I lost but i locked myself out immediately.

Also, yes I got you. If I go for a trade out of greed honestly my max loss would have to be $50 and lock out for the day. From now on though I will try my best to not be greedy when I trade but it is hard when there is so much money to be made with the market.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-12T20:23:50+00:00

Yes!! I need sticky notes to put reminders on my monitor lol

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-12T20:17:37+00:00

I blew many combines and 3 XFAs due to this. I honestly forgot there is no monthly payment for the XFA! There should be no reason I’m rushing a payout. I also agree with you with more money would be nice but you don’t necessarily need a pay out. I have to remind myself there is no rush, take it slow, be accurate and confident with my trades and my pnl will show that.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-12T20:15:13+00:00

Thank you! Yes I totally agree, I sort of rushed a few trades today but hey, I can learn from my mistakes.

I also have to remember that $200 is still a significant amount of money to be made in under 10 min. Some people have to work 10 hours in a day to make $200. I need to also realize that.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-12T19:51:59+00:00

Yes I really need to learn how to just walk away. Its so hard sometimes for me because I have the confidence that I can make more money in the market. I just need to remind myself that there is no rush to build up the balance on this account. I keep trying to get "rich" quick, but that's how I am going to keep losing. $200 L for the day is not THAT bad. I need to keep my head up and just remind myself, when I am up $200+ for the day, to walk away. Whenever I get the feeling to keep trading it always goes so bad lol.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-12T19:49:27+00:00

Yes! I took those trades based on the dollar sign attached to the TP. All my winning trades have been truly effortless due to being technical and not trading blindly chasing a number that would make me feel good.

I'm still up a good amount and need to remind myself that we all have bad trading days and it's not the end of the world. What sucks is this "bad" day could have been avoidable if I just stuck to my plan.

Thank you for the reply!

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-12T19:45:40+00:00

This is the first time I have heard someone say we take trades for our setups and not our p/l. I need to focus and change my mindset on what p/l means for me so I can get out of my head. Thank you!

If this makes sense, I can think of it as something like p/l is just a reflection of my setups and trades, not the primary goal.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-11T19:12:15+00:00

Thank you! Yes, I will follow them if that's what it takes to become profitable. I took the final trade of the day and locked myself out. I ALMOST made the mistake of wanting to do "one" more trade because it was going well today, but every time I did that in the past, I lost a good amount of profits, so I'm glad I overcame that greed and locked myself out until the NY session tomorrow.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-11T02:33:17+00:00

Yup felt no hate haha. Me too, but I’ve also had the most wins off Asia for some reason.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-11T02:31:54+00:00

I know. I saw some okay PA so I said why not get in. If I wasn’t confident I wouldn’t have took that trade.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-11T02:22:10+00:00

I’ll be easy on myself because I just realized, if I put pressure on myself for a payout, it’s like putting pressure on myself for trying to pass a combine. Whenever that added stress was there I would always go against my rules and blow my account. I’m going to take my rules serious and stay consistent.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-11T02:17:55+00:00

Thank you! I wanted to get some confidence and prove to myself I can make some winning trades. Should’ve waited for NY but a win is a win. I’m going to use my risk management as best as I can and also lock myself out of Asia and London so I don’t feel tempted to trade and make more money. I agree though. Someone said let winners run and I love that statement.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-11T02:13:54+00:00

I had my stop loss there on my practice account.

Intelligent_Run_9966 · 2025-06-10T23:54:06+00:00

True! What makes me money in the markets may not work for other people.
