@3xBoogeyman I deposit $2k into a live brokerage account I have $2k of my own live margin, my capital at risk. I buy a $100 50k account I have access to the same $2k in margin but the only risk is the $100 I spent for the account.
In a few hours, it will be 2026.
Some of you will find yourself in the coming year and develop consistency and mastery of oneself.
Your resolution is to unfollow everyone else and lead yourself solo into long term consistently profitable trading; this includes unfollowing me too.
9pm ET Thursday January 01, 2026 we meet for a brief roundtable lecture.
Only on YouTube.
Happy New Year Folks.
The toughest part of trading is when you know you’re capable, you know you can execute yet you still find yourself doing dumb stuff.
This phase lasts way longer than you expect.
Sometimes it feels like it never ends.
Be habitual about it.
It is that time again...
When you reflect on what you did and didn't do this past week.
It is important to view it consistently as a means of measuring your ongoing progress as an Analyst and Trader.
If you reduce it to only harsh negative self-talk, you impede your growth and development.
If you elevate it to arrogance and ego-driven measurement against others, you are making your single ownership of your corporation a limiting partnership with toxic competition.
Everyone who views their efforts against anyone or everyone, is unknowingly causing their trading to be more difficult.
This is why the loudest or most judgemental have the hardest time holding winners, and losses undo them emotionally... as they seek public coddling and attention to soothe themselves.
Focus.
You are not in a competition with anyone. You are pursuing excellence and it is not merely an act... but rather a habit.
Have a great day.
