Supertradersam Trading Journal #5 of Feb 2026 | Date: Feb 09, 2026 | Result: Profit , <PROP FIRM BLOWN> | Total Feb Winning Days: 4 | Total Feb Losing Days:1 |

Today is not a great day for me.

Yes my old bad habits, popped up, yes you are right, the "Chasing" , "Averaging", "going against trend" , "violated my rules"

In the morning 10.30 am, i came so late for the trading, but i found nice fall in the market, i was thinking it is short game. on downwards of 8 ema, towards going to 34 ema, we get normally the drop, and want to get quick $50 , but eventually blown up my Accounts, and only able to survive with two accounts left.





Lot of lessons learnt in one day:

1. Do not Enter the trade ahead of confirmation, do not assume the indicator going to cross down (in my case 8 ema cross down 34 ema ) , but it was not.
2. respect the trend: Do not go against the trend of market.
3. Cut the losses quicky : Plan the trade, then Trade the plan. here i should have cut losses at $100 risk, but i went too much,
4. do not average against size: as soon as i see market going opposite, instead of stopping, i averaged, thats one of the most bad habit. stay away from average.
5. Dont get into Revenge trading: sometime it is NOT your day, just accept it, and move on. Dont try to recover small $$$ and ending up losing big.


it is one of the best day as this day taught me lessons Nth time, but reminded me the "POWER of market". as everyone say "Market do not have emotions", it does not see how much u lost or gain

All the best everyone,

Tomorrow new day, new opportunity.

I am trying some apex (back to cheaper priced account) on wealthchart ) ,....see you tomm

Supertradersam Trading Journal #6 of Feb 2026 | Date: Feb 10, 2026 | Result: No TRADING DAY | Total Feb Winning Days: 4 | Total Feb Losing Days:1 |


Hello Everyone,

Thank you for being here , and reading my journal. Today i planned to avoid any live trades, hence most of the time, i was spending my time not watching market. I feel super powerful and no revenge trading kind of emotions, as normally next day if you trade, you try to recoup all the losses in one day, that will eventually be big loss again.

I do watch inbetween like lunch hour, or end of day hour , macro reading of market patterns.

So sorry if i disappoint you today, but for my own long term success, i took off today, no trades. I dont see any surprises in market today though, tomorrow is NEW DAY, NEW OPPORTUNITY....


LETS GO SLOW AND STEADY , WE CAN REACH HIGH DISCIPLINE ONE DAY

I can not thank enough today to market, because, due to complete FOMO on last week, i decided to strictly wait for CONFIRMATION.

See below chart:
8 EMA -> Green Line
34 EMA -> Red Line
50 EMA -> blue line
200 EMA -> Purple line

At 9.55 to 10 AM EST: nicely 8 ema crossing down 34, but i wanted to wait for confirmation of candle to close , for 3 MINUTE TIME FRAME.

Screenshot 2026-02-11 095904

Then i was ready with LIMIT Order with 2 MNQ, then decided to jump in as soon as i saw the confirmation , with 4 MNQ



See below, nicely, it will go to 50 ema, but i dont want more than $50 profit a day. So here i close it immediately as soon as i reached my target.


Hope it helps beginners, and those want to see the strategy from my point of view. If you follow ONE STRATEGY at a time, for long months, i am sure you will be successful.

After 10 minutes, HOW PERFECTLY our EMA Strategy works, but again dont chase



see you tomm

That's a tough and valuable lesson to learn about losing your prop account. As day traders we live on the hard right edge, a lonely, unforgiving place to be. To succeed at this we have to be at the peak of discipline and skill at all times. Learn from this, analyze what you did wrong and remember your wins too. Remember what got you here and just keep doing that. I tell myself that every day.

@supertradersam,

Sitting out Feb 10 after the blowup was the right move. Most guys would've tried to make it back immediately and compounded the damage.

4 MNQ at $2/point -- so roughly 7.5 NQ points on that move. Your $50/day target only needs about 6.25 points across those 4 contracts. On a 3-minute chart that's a single clean move, not something where you need to force multiple trades to hit the number.

The 8/34/50/200 EMA stack is straightforward and that's a feature, not a bug. 8/34 cross for the trigger, 50 EMA as your profit zone, 200 for directional bias. One thing worth tracking -- are you taking these only in the direction of the 200? Research on EMA crossover systems shows win rates jump from roughly 40-45% to 55%+ when you filter by the longer-term trend.

On Apex Trader Funding specifically, their drawdown rules punish exactly the kind of revenge trading you avoided. The $50/day target actually maps well to funded account consistency rules -- small daily chips rather than trying to hit it all in one trade.

What time of day are you taking these? NQ has very different character in the first 30 minutes vs. the 10:00-11:30 window.

New day, trying some new strategy from youtube one of my friend suggested

Quad Strategy : Still exploring. once i finish understanding , and also coding, will share.

Drew Stochastic (4 different periods as you seein below screen), and i created a ninja script with different oversold/overbought, when all meet same time, i check EMA as well.

still trying to understand, but i followed with EMA as core with this strategy

Today Friday, i prefer to be super careful on friday, due to low volume some fridays, and unexpected momentum, may easily spoil ur week gain.

This morning 7.19 AM my strategy triggered as per all Stochastic curves crossing Long bias today at this time, went in with MNQ, and closed for $60 profit, but due to market order i got little extra :-)



Also note down 8 EMA, 34 EMA, perfectly about to cross , i will explore , repeat these kind of trades more in near future




All the best, take it easy... new week coming, new market every day starts , so no need to chase....

Quad strategy is slow, but steady, as i watch all 4 Stochastic to reach bullish trend or bearish trend, based on that i take trades

At 11.20 AM EST< after 8 cross 34, as well as 9 cross 20 ema , see below chart, nicely short worked . it is quick scalping trade.

It is banking holiday, i prefer not to trade too much.... take it easy , see you on 2/17/2026 , tomorrow.

No need to rush, no need to chase.... everyday market gives huge opportunity always.

Today is going to be a busy day, as i am also going to participate in Leeloo competitions from 7 AM EST.

So i woke up , and started trading from 5.30 AM EST.

at 5.30 AM EST, i clearly saw 8 ema crossed 200 ema, which is powerful short signal, hence i want to short, but i waited for pullback.

at 34 ema touch (pullback from bottom 24591 .. back to 24622 => i shorted , and waited. and i see the confirmation of K1, k2, k3 (stochastic all reached overbought). see below




Account Dashboard: I aim for only $60+ , but today i waited little longer.

Note: I also added new PA Account (Funded) from Leeloo, the last one, is 50K, aiming max 10 mnq (not at once) , but initial goal is always 2 mnq to 4 mnq .... i will share if i get payout, and this strategy works.



Please note: The hard lesson i learnt, with my hard-earned money - is for everyone, hence do not overtrade, do not chase market, follow one strategy, one at a time, i am sure , one day we can be RICH in our discipline, I am not saying rich in cash .... discipline will bring everything with it, we just have to focus on discipline.

all i say myself, it takes 10 days , each day $60 , to reach $600 . but it is easy to spoil a day losing $600 in 10 seconds, all my 10 days effort is gone, TIME, family, MONEY ... so lets remember this, and respect the trade, and life we all have.

Lets not give up!!!!

Anyone wants to know which prop firm is best, please dm me, or message me , i am always here to help nexusfi members.         @supertradersam in         . and I NEVER ASK MONEY, so please stay away from all kind of scam.
Thanks
