??? What is going on here ??? I feel like the mods keeping this journal up enables this person's gambling addiction. This thread is horrific, please seek help. You are burning thousands of your own cash. For the love of god, at least use a prop firm to slow the bleeding.
Yes I am gambling, trading is gambling in my opinion.
I am seeking help, I see a therapist and we talk about my trading.
I refuse to use a prop firm as I want to make it with my own account. I think if I want to succeed I have to make the investment in myself which means I will be spending money on trading losses.
I am grateful that the moderators allow me to post here, thank you! I can get my thoughts and results out in the open instead of keeping everything in my head.
I will closely watch your journal, @canadianpotato and see if I can learn from you.
