I just want to remind myself that losing is OKAY! As long as I follow my rules, it's okay if I lose. I've been so competitive all my life that losing is like failure. It's not. It's another lesson, an opportunity to grow and most importantly, it's another opportunity to go again

@TradingLucid This is why Lucid is one of, if not the best prop firm in the space

@vwapx Hahaha you can still express emotions as a Stoic you know? 😂

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

This is such amazing advice

I believe that i can do this, seeing others do it tells me it’s achievable.

At the end of the day I am responsible for my actions, I cannot blame the market or outside factors for what I do on the charts.

The market isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, expect 10-20 point trades and be happy with that.

You can do everything “right” and still lose

Nobody is coming to save me

I have 4 kids and a wife that depend on me, I cannot be doing dumb stuff

Trading is not linear, I’ve had months where I was breakeven, months where I was very red, months where I was very green.

When I enter a trade, I “expect” it to lose, if it does I’m not disappointed, if it wins that’s cool

Until I’m dead defeat is only psychological, its all in my mind, i can give it power over me or i can let it go.

These are some that I think about constantly, i practice gratitude and gratefulness for the opportunity to make money this way

In my last video, I spoke about how I blew my account to end July. I said I followed my rules, had great risk management, but lost the account due to a bad losing run after a payout. In the comments, someone said "That wasn't very stoic of you" 🤦🏾‍♂️ Some people just don't get it 😂

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

@vwapx Hahaha I couldn't agree more man

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

When did this "you're supposed to win" mentality become normalized in trading? There are people commenting on my videos telling me to switch my strategy or that my system isn't profitable because of one bad month. Why is this mindset so prevalent in the day trading space?

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

Last time I checked, less than 10% of people pass accounts and even less reach a payout. Even less than that get multiple payouts. So how can me having one bad month equate to a bad strategy or system? Isn't drawdown periods for strategies normal? Are people forgetting that? 😂

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

Very excited for this

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

@DiegoBTrades Lmao same man. Negative news gets more reaction than positive news. It applies to us too. We read negative comments on our channel and it affects us more than positive ones. Since I noticed that, I try to be present in the moment and realize that my opinion of myself matters most

@TradingStoicly Stoicism + discipline = match made in trader heaven. We love to see it 👏

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

@Topstep There should be an option for every single day. I use it all the time as soon as my trading session is over. In all my videos when I'm doing my trade recap on YouTube, you can even see me being locked out. If I'm not, I'll be prone to doing something dumb lol

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

@vwapx @DiegoBTrades Facts and most aren't courageous enough to show it daily either. I don't blame them for not doing it because it's not easy. However, those are the same people who shouldn't be overly criticizing either

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

@Topstep Static drawdown should be the new norm industry wide

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

@acceptblies I appreciate it Blies! ✊🏾

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

Nah but all jokes aside, I'm happy that I finally passed. Now my goal is to keep adding more accounts and copy trade between multiple firms by the end of the year

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

Part of me being more on Twitter in the last few months of the year is to limit my following to a small group of people at different phases of their journey documenting their trading. All of the other stuff isn't worth following. The For You page can also be toxic

[Trading Stoicly @TradingStoicly]

@RomanianUSA @TradingLucid Absolutely love to see it Emi 🙏🏾
