I have been trading futures around 10 years now and still consider myself a newbie in this ever changing world. I develop and trade systems. Manual trading is just not for me. I just cant handle the downs, but I am happy about letting an algo I have developed to loose money of my behalf
I am now using machine learning to help develop with really promising results but time will tell
I am glad to stumble upon this forum. I have been searching for a forum where I can learn from other traders. It's been quite a journey for me in terms of trading. I started swing trading equities back in 2012 and lost quite a bit of money. Then I moved on to trading options because it didn't require much capital. I lost a lot of money because I didn't know what I was doing.
Then, I went back to trading equities but this time, day trading. Boy oh boy...what a ride. Again not knowing much about what I was doing resulting in big losses. I blew up my account so many time. Then, I got sick of trading and quit for a while. Thankfully, I work full time and so I was able to re-build my trading capital.
I was determined to find a mentor who knows what he/she is doing. I finally found one and learned from him for a few months. Now that I'm older and wiser, my main goal is first and foremost capital preservation. Second, of course make some profits. I am more patient and more selective in my trades. I feel OK even if I don't make a trade that day.
Anyway, I am sure I will be learning a lot from other more experienced traders here. I am looking forward to that.
