Trading will turn you into a very powerful being
You have to essentially conquer your nature
This is no easy task but once done...there is nothing in this life you can't do or have
I took two trades today 1L and 1W.
Price swept week lows. Looked for a reaction. Mitigated risk on first trade because of weak price action. Winning trade resulted in 2RR. Also passed phase 1 of my prop account.
Was looking for a reversal once price traded to 50% discount range but didn’t get it. Mitigated loss only down about 1% on the day. My dumbass didn’t realize what day it was…oops
Don't tell people you are a trader
They won't understand
Just put your head down grind your face off and let your massive success do all the talking for you
When you make it you aint gotta say a damn thing
The evidence is irrefutable
Quick little scalp I took today. Markets were just consolidating after am session so I wanted to get in and out.
Resulted in 2.8RR very happy. Finally out of drawdown.
Been struggling to pass my current prop firm challenge. However I don’t blame my strategy cuz I know it works.
I’M THE PROBLEM
I’M MY OWN WORST ENEMY
…Not the markets.
My psychology and bad habits are the only thing holding me back.
This is an important message that everyone with a big dream needs to hear, because we all have periods when we lose confidence and question our purpose, our mission... our why. If that's sounds like you... read this. If not, read it anyway so it doesn't become you.
When going for a big goal, some people will try to discourage you. Even the people closest to you could be the poorest sources of advice and encouragement. Why? Because they care about you, and they want to protect you from disappointment. So they'll say things like “play it safe... why take the risk?" It’s all well meaning, but if you take that kind of advice, you’ll never do anything really great.
Only you see your dream and have the vision of where you want to be and who you want to become. Stay true to that vision and stay on course!
It ain't always easy, negative thinking can be seductive, because quitting is easy. Don't let the doubters and the critics drag you down... keep climbing! Embrace the journey and everything that comes with it - good and bad - as the necessary experiences, teachers and lessons that will give you the knowledge needed to get you to your goal.
In the meantime, live your life with integrity and kindness as your first priority. Most of all, never give up!! Unconditionally persist and you will figure it out.
