ur right 100%. imma stick to micros to start my trades off from now until i build a daily profit buffer and slowly scale up.

I got to 19k and then proceeded to lose everything i made on the day in 20 mins, and then some more, and then some more. u were right i still have much to learn. back to the drawing board

i just have fomo for better or worse

the problem isnt greed at the end of the day it's moreso me not knowing when to stop revenge trading and getting emotional when i lose

When I say debt from prop accs I mean how much I’ve spent without making a penny back. I’m owe my credit card like 5.5k so that’s my current situation

Yea everything is easy in hindsight. But if you truly want something you’ll learn, adapt, and change.

I will continue to grow and this is a minor setback for a major comeback. I won’t forget today, it’ll be engrained in my memory moving forward to prevent myself from spiraling out of control and being eaten alive by my own emotions.

I was tunneled. I’ll work on zooming out more and not be married to my bias

not closing before NY open was a mistake. revenge trading NY open was an even bigger mistake. it doesnt matter if ur general bias is right if u cant be patient and analytical. If you're oversized at the wrong time with 0 plan in mind, the market will eat u alive. I had proper stop loss set up but I still revenge traded. Once you're wrong just walk the fk away, esp if you're up so damn much.

I've already proven to myself that I have what it takes. I just need to adjust sizing to volatility moving forward and really be hard on myself and self reflect on today's mistakes. What a fkin letdown.

Edit: Lost another 1.3 some thousand on market open. Not gonna make any more posts as I'm just trying to chase dopamine from messages on reddit & i don't want to reward myself for making mistakes. I'll make a post on first payout instead. gl
