Creating my own luck

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Going to start holding myself accountable by posting my Daily P/L. Just for myself and nothing else. It’s all mental

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Today was hella boring. All chop but was able to practice risk management. We keep learning and improving

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Thursday: +$340
Friday: -$640
Today: $658.91

Did some reflecting over the weekend. Strategy needs some fine tuning. That’s what the focus is this week

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Stop loss deleted. No excuses

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Realized something today

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Thankful for todays lesson. A light bulb turned on today. Looking forward to tomorrow

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Sunday night we’re taking time to go over our journal and emphasize on our rules. Continuously making the same mistakes when there’s no need to. The good thing is that I’m recognizing those mistakes and most important of all I understand why they’re mistakes. Nonetheless we made progress today and this week. Already looking forward to Monday

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Implemented something new today and really enjoyed it. The more I journal and learn from mistakes the more I feel like I’m in control. Slowly starting to enjoy trading vs being stressed out the entire session like before. This is only the beginning

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Implemented a new timeframe today. Overall had a better time trading due to feeling more in control. Still making mistakes but overall good day due to our risk management slowly improving. Green Day 🙏

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Not the easiest day but we managed to pívot and recover. Normally on a day like this I would had ended with heavy losses but I’m beginning to accept where my weakness lies. Excited for to apply something new tomorrow

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

March: Come to the realization that the Market will not give you what you want/when you want it but only when IT wants to. It’s up to me whether or not I’m disciplined enough to understand that and not let my emotions get the best of me. I’m happy to see the green this month but most of all I’m most excited to finally understand where/how I lose the most. 24th - 28th was a sacrifice in order to be conscious of those costly mistakes.
For April our goal is to:
1. Understand that not every single day will the market move the way we want it to
2. Allow the opportunities that we’re looking for to reveal themselves
3. Focus on precision and trade less

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Today: applied the principles I need to stick to every single day. I’ve came to the conclusion that every single day can be like today. Where I meet my goal and I feel rewarded for being patient and sticking to my strategy. Anything outside of this result (or more) is purely my fault. Controlling my emotions will get me where I want to be

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Friday: I realized why the past week was so rough. Took heavy losses but in return found out what my biggest weakness is and in what situations I find myself losing. Becoming self aware and understanding my weakness

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Fine tuning out strategy. Overtime I’ve realized why, how, and where the mistakes are being done. Becoming more conscious of what the errors are and because of that trading is becoming more fun vs stressful. Two steps forward and one step back

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Weird day. No excuses but man. My computer restarted when I was in a position and my stop loss deleted. Spent the rest of the day revenge trading trying to get back to green. Today was the definition of emotional trading. I need to do better

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Have a good understand of where I went wrong today. Traded a bit scared after yesterday’s loss + didn’t feel too comfortable because I wasn’t at my home setup. Need to do a better job of reading $NQ. Overall good feeling knowing that I can trade while traveling

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

The other side of trading. Surprisingly I’m not as upset as I’d usually be and that’s because I know where I went wrong. On the other hand I’m a little content knowing how/when I can avoid making this same mistake. The green streak ends today. You win some and you lose some. We keep pushing

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Did some reflecting after yesterdays wake up call. Have a lot to work on/long way to go to be where i want to be if I truly want to make something out of this. Restricted myself a little too much today but we performed well. Green streak continues 🙏

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

If I don’t stick to my game plan I will lose and thats that. Will consider today a W because we continue learning and closed green +$36.54. Another Green Day 🙏

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Dont know where to start. The market put me to the test today and humbled me, once again. From time to time the market reminds me who’s boss and I get punished hard. Didn’t stick to my rules/strategy and was extremely impatient. 30 min into open I already heavy positions open

[bulldozerr @ErkBarboza]

Not the way I want to continue doing this + its how managed to lose a lot more in the past. Managed to recover bit by bit until I closed in the green. As upsetting as it is because this is all self inflicted im thankful once again that im not as good as I think I am
