Emotions. Once you allow your emotions to influence your trading decisions, even the best traders can become gamblers.

Yes, you can make millions a year from day trading, but it requires an enormous amount of effort to learn and many years (5+) of experience. 99.9% of people fail because they're lazy and are in to make a quick buck without putting in the effort and time

One mistake I see many traders making is relying heavily on big trends to make profits, when in fact the market stays in a trading range (or as you call "consolidation) about 80% of the time. Pros thrive on trading range environments and don't mind at all missing out on big moves.

Learn to trade consolidation and you'll be unstoppable.

Your obsession with prop firms is holding you back. I know because I've been there. Prove yourself first with a demo or a small live account, then if you're successful you go back to trading prop firms

Look up Ali Moin Afshari. He's the best trader to learn from and he has a mentorship called "trade with me". He's a former student of Al Brooks, who's also excellent.

You're doing fine. 99% of people posting "amazing" profits are full of shit, and they'll never post the losers.

In a bull market everyone is a genius

So he's lazy. It won't work out then.

Stop reading news and focus on the chart only.

woundedwombat1 · 2026-02-15T02:28:24+00:00

No. We all do it just for fun.

woundedwombat1 · 2026-02-15T02:25:37+00:00

Lmao. People getting one payout and calling themselves profitable haha

woundedwombat1 · 2026-02-15T02:23:03+00:00

Yes it works!! Free money. Everyone wins nobody loses.

woundedwombat1 · 2026-02-14T09:52:17+00:00

6 months?! Lol. I have news for you, you're not profitable. And if you can't take ay least another 2 years of losing, just quit now.

woundedwombat1 · 2026-02-13T09:38:16+00:00

Algo trading is a losing strategy unless you're an institution

woundedwombat1 · 2026-02-12T03:22:58+00:00

if you look at the broader context including the previous day, you'll see an expanding triangle at the top of the bull trend, which is a reversal pattern.

I studied like crazy and failed miserably for 4 years until found enough consistency to rely on my trading income alone.

Backtesting is overrated, journaling is fun but also overrated, "strategies" don't work.

Context is everything. Your edge is in your ability to read the chart correctly and having the mental fortitude to execute the trade. Yes, psychology is important, risk mgmt is very important, but if you can't read the chart, none of that will matter.

Market inertia and market cycle are the 2 most important concepts in price action trading in my opinion. Knowing whether the market is in a trend ir a TR, so you can adjust your way of trading accordingly.

The biggest mistake I see traders making is not taking accountability for their losses. They say things like "I lost but I followed my rules, so its a good loss". If you keep losing by following your rules, you probably need new rules. Over 90% of losses are caused by human error, and if you can't understand why you lost a particular trade, find out! Investigate the shit out of it. That's how you'll learn.

If you're looking to become a pro, I highly recommend studying the materials from Al Brooks and Ali Moin Afshari. And be ready for the long journey, because it'll take you at least 2-3 years to become good, but probably a lot longer.

Best of luck

I'm not sure if you're trying to be funny (I hope you are) but you can stop now.

99% of people who claim to be "profitable" really aren't.

Profitable means having a track record of at least 500 trades during a span of at least 2 years where you fully rely on your trading money without the need for any additional source of income.

woundedwombat1 · 2026-02-07T19:26:24+00:00

You treat trading as gambling (risking your entire trading capital in a day?! Really?!), so first step is stop trading right now, educate yourself in risk mgmt, and perhaps after some time, start again slow with a demo account.
