Ha, I actually know someone who trade like you. Just get in a position, doesn't matter which side and work it out later. Market doesn't move in a straight line very often. He blow up from time to time but mitigates by having a fixed account size of around 150k and sweep extras into the reserve account which is usually 5x what he uses. He blow up maybe once every 2-3 month, but in that time usually makes 3x or more. similar performance as you really, 5-10% a day. not a style for everyone that's for sure and need balls of steel sometimes, which apparently you have lol

Exactly! My account reached almost 150k now, I don't know yet how much I'll leave in it.
It's risky af, but I've never blown any account... when things start to go wrong over and over I assume the (big) losses and stay away from the market (revenge trading is hell on earth).

Very nice balance you have there!

The problem most traders have when they start losing is the urge/need to get the lost money back and so they start trading more and more contracts after they lost X%.
This of course is the worst thing to do!

Wishing you all the best!

Reversed 2 times today... losses amount more than 5k

But I'm still in for the last bet:
(1) stop loss -10k
(2) stop gain 5k

Hanging on...

It's up to you USA!

congrat on hitting the target

Today was hard. Inverted 4 times. almost 8 hours looking to the computer screen... I'm f*cking tired.

What a mess I did

congrat on hitting the target

Thanks! But I did a couple of stupid things today and needed an even lower target in the end... I was lucky this time

Nice trading!

I only had 2 trades on CL today, i shorted 2 contracts at 74.80 with first target at 74.55 and second target at 74.18.
The second trade was buy 2 contracts at 74.18 (same time i exited my sell trade) with a first target at 74.37 and second target at 74.49.

Very happy with my results however mine are only demo for now, so basically its worthless
Next week i will start my Gauntlet with Earn2Trade i hope to achieve the same results as i have been getting the last few weeks!

I will follow your journal, looks very interesting!

Thank you!

The European session and the US beginning confused me a lot today. In the end, it was a near 50/50 bet. This “always in” approach is tough.

If your results get worse with the real account, I always suggest the “Trading in the Zone” book. I listen to the audiobook version everyday, over and over.

Good morning!

Today I inverted 2 times (almost $13k losses).

The brakeout in the end saved my @ss.
