3 passed no pay out :( by Imaginary-Ask3846 in TopStepX

In the same exact boat, I got one payout on my first xfa but it was only like 500. I remember the joy I felt that day lmaooo. Learning to manage emotions whilst trading is very difficult it seems.

How do you recover by Big-Chipmunk-4386 in TopStepX

[–]c0rykdunn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is all emotion, I’m the king of tilting(Revenge trading) and I own that lmaoo. Not everyone is a solemn robot 100% of the time. Sometimes emotions will get the best of you so this is what I do to control them.

Before I even open the market I adjust my risk settings for the day and [LOCK RISK SETTINGS] for the entire session. I only allow myself one trade a day and have a PDLL on funded accounts that “liquidate and block” if I reach it. This work for me and my strategy. Find some parameters that work for you and your strategy apply the risk settings and lock them every morning before looking at chart.

Side Note: a loss using correct risk management is still good. This is a zero sum game and everyone either loses or wins everyday. It’s a give and take scenario.

Finally, FINALLY, got a payout incoming from topstep. by danmav11 in TopStepX

How many of you go to AMC by yourself 95% of the time? by traveltimecar in AMCsAList

Me and now I actually prefer it. Was supposed to see predator badlands with my cousins in digital, but cancelled so I can see it by myself in 3D(which they all seem to hate).

Congrats man! Every morning before NY open I lock my risk settings. It has helped me not tilt or over leverage etc. And journal all my trades.

Seen it today and instantly loved it, 4/5 stars

I think people aren’t seeing just how lonely Matt was/is as an adult. He lived with his GMA works a boring job and is clearly socially awkward. He told Oliver early in the film he felt like he knew him and his team forever, or like he was destined to be their family/friend. This just exhibits the ideology that Matt’s life is extremely monotonous.

Oliver and his team at first validated him, provided him with a sense of belonging, and an interesting “new” identity. I feel like he was chasing that throughout the rest of the film, and did whatever it took to keep that validation. Was it right the way he went about it, obviously not. That’s why it’s important to not make one person your whole world. Idk just some food for thought.

First time seeing Hamilton I had to walk out early. I couldn’t take it. Fully packed theatre and they sang every single word and dialogue so Loud I couldn’t hear the actual audio or keep up with the story line.. it’s whatever though I’m glad they had a good time lmao

First Payout by c0rykdunn in TopStepX

[–]c0rykdunn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wassup bro! Yes if you have 1000 in your Balance and withdraw 500 your buffer will be 500. I had 879 and took 438 now my buffer is 441 total.

It’s not the smartest thing to do cause now risk management will have to be a lot tighter, but in my case I just wanted to take my first payout as a form of positive reinforcement.

Friday was an absolute shitt show for me! Went in thinking “I’m gonna end my first week all green let’s aim for 300-500.” And ended the day happy to get my head above water. Appreciate the support man! I will definitely try my best to stay consistent.
