End of day recap trading my monster $50k @Topstep combine.
Too long didn't watch: I was up $10k, was down -$1,500, then did a hero short for 118 pionts and ended the day up $10k again.
@jackfriks@postbridge_@supabase Hey man great work! Great problem to have. You could look at @digitalocean managed DB. cheaper than supabase and still really carefree.
Maybe SQLite could do it, could get nerdy and do some testing with k6 to hit some endpoints with 10k users and see if the writes keep up
@ForexIke I've been taking a break from trade copying because I get a little crazy with it. My goal is to build the discipline so I can multiply the gains like this and not just the losses π
Drum roll please π₯π₯π₯ I've passed the mega $50k combine from @Topstep! Made $16k today to qualify, hitting the $48k profit requirement π€£ Took longer than I wanted but I'm proud to have it finished.
A week after overshooting the 50% target I'm back on track and closing on finishing this eval. Potentially tonight after hours or tomorrow during the new york session I'll have this @topstep combine passed!
Would you keep trading an account if your target was this high?
Have you ever seen someone try so hard to pass a $50k eval @MichaelPatak@Topstep? π€£ I accidentally overshot by a few hundred and then while trying to lose money I kept making it. Was the craziest trading day I've ever had. I'm close to passing it now, about $5k left.
I can't say that I recommend it. I want to finish it. Plan to get more after this and pass them in a correct manner π€
I've learned a lot from the experience. Fixed max sizing, no pressure because the target is so high I have to find big good entries and really hold for the move.
