    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    Show me one person who didn't fail first in attempting to do anything and I will show you a person who hasn't accomplished much of anything. Failures are a necessary and useful teacher on the path to success of you choose to learn from them.

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    Even better...I've spent my whole life proving people wrong. Maybe this time will be different tho. Doubtful. Might as well be pouring jet fuel on a forest fire.

    About to hook up and then blocke

    Strike when the iron is hot. 2 weeks is a ridiculous amount of time to try and plan ahead with some woman you never met.

    Can it be saved?

    Pull back a little...she could be probing for signs of more weakness. If she sees them it will confirm what she is starting to think already. Show her strength instead.

    Have I just red pilled?

    The person who believes they can is right. But so is the person who believes they can't. Because their mind will ensure the outcomes align with their beliefs. Most people talk to themselves negatively almost all the time...and their mind believes it. Most people would be surprised to see...

    Is SoFi bank getting real popular among college-age students?

    Probably a lot of them entered that money dance contest and won. And that chick in the dark blue on the left can get it...I'd like to do my money dance in that ass.

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    Those are SMC/ICT concepts which a lot of what I am working on is built on. It would be foolish to ignore that type of stuff, it's there in every market, even Forex, where they are the only ones who are legally allowed to act in that way. Those patterns repeat over and over again where they...

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    Was much happier with my trading today, at least on 2 trades that won big for me. Lost on an EURUSD trade because I jumped the gun on a NY Reversal play short and got stopped out and waa mostly focused on my other trade because I had been waiting on this breakout since last week, and it finally...

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    Valid point...but once I get to a certain point in that account I don't have to worry about the drawdown trailing, which will help alleviate some of that I think.

    It's video game money but you get paid real money. Eventually when you show you are consistently profitable they start using your trades with real money. I will check out that book. I just started reading a book called Six Figures From Scratch which is also really good.

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    Got it...so I guess when I start getting checks it's going to be fake money. Cool. I'll let you know how much 'fake money' I receive. I question the intelligence of someone who doesn't bother to Google prop firms and read that any reputable one actually pays people money that they earn...

    There must be thousands of delusional people at all these prop forms posting their checks then.

    Let's see how you are lol'ing when I post the checks I'm being sent. I suggest you go read about price action trading and the studies done on it.

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    Well, firstly, I can't "wreck myself" because I am not trading my own money. Prop firms give you the opportunity to pass their challenges and if you do then they give you an account that you trade with and split profits. I am currently still in my Eval, but once I pass that I keep the first...

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    There is something to be said for that. I mean I can win because I am pretty accurate on my entries, but I can't win big without letting them play out. I definitely want to focus on getting my Win:Loss ratio above 3, currently it's like 1.6:1, but my win rate is almost 73% so I am winning 3 out...

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    Actually I do know usually and that's the thing that pisses me off, because I still do it anyway. I mean I have the bullish and bearish order blocks sitting right in the chart in front of me, which would be my targets as I am not a swing trader or a position trader, but more of a scalper. I want...

    Trading Log: On the path to getting funded

    +400 today, and once again being "Edward Paperhands" came back to bite me. Charted yesterday afternoon for the weekly setups I was looking at and hit Silver right off the bat on a breakout this morning and of course got out after $200 when I could have made $1800 of I just waited. Then hit...

    Trading Forex

    I appreciate what you are saying and I definitely have learned a lot from 2021. The thing is that I know I don't have all the answers yet, nobody really does, but I have got enough of them to be really good on the setups that I take, which are limited, granted. The bravado isn't coming from a...
