[waserek @waserek]

I started my trading journey back in 2017.

My first trade? Buying Bitcoin with all my savings... literally $500 below the ATH 😅
Then came the panic sell – and the classic: trying to “make it back” using 100x leverage on BitMEX 🫠

For the first 7 years, I consistently lost money trading my own capital.

Some months better, some worse – but it always ended the same: one brutal day where the market wrecked me, I’d go full TILT, and boom – margin call on 50% of my account.

Everything changed only a year ago when I entered the world of prop trading 🔁
And honestly, for a lot of you – this might be the best path to start making real money.

👇 What did prop trading change?
It gave me structure. Daily loss limits, risk management rules, and strict rules that eliminated my worst habits. The stuff I couldn't fix trading my own money.

🔴 Daily loss limit
We all know the feeling: loss → tilt → “gotta make it back right now!”

⏰ Flat before EOD
Ahh, those sleepless nights with alarms set every hour...
“Maybe it’ll bounce back overnight!”
Spoiler: it didn’t 😂
Now? Positions flat before close – and I sleep like a baby.

🧘‍♂️ The peace of mind that I’m not losing my money.

🔍 A new way of looking at the market
I used to jump around: oil, gold, EURUSD, USDJPY, whatever caught my eye.
Looking back, I was gambling. I didn’t understand any of it.
Now? Just ES and NQ. Real markets. Real volume.

📈 Technical analysis?
I’ve tested it all: RSI, MACD, EMAs, Bollinger Bands, Fibs, ICT…
Today I know one thing: clean charts > everything else.
Keep it simple.
It doesn’t matter if your entry comes from a moving average crossover, a Fibo retracement, or some other indicator voodoo —
if you manage risk and ride the trend, you’ll make money.

🎯 My edge isn’t some secret formula from a $999 course or some magic indicator – it’s just reading the market and following the trend:

🔸 Price Action – who’s in control? Aggressive Buyers or Sellers?
🔸 Volume Profile – the Value Area always shows where real money was placed
🔸 Correlations with other instruments: DAX, RTY, Mag7, US10Y
🔸 Basic SR levels – where liquidity lives:
 – Asia High/Low
 – EU High/Low
 – US High/Low
 – Previous Day High/Low
 – Week High/Low
 – Initial Balance
 – Opening Range
 – Dealer GEX (from options market)
🔸 Momentum – I wait for a reversal or a breakout and join the aggressive, directional move
 → Best trades? You’re in profit within minutes
🔸 Risk management – I start small and only size up once I’m already green for the day
 → That’s how I scale my daily profits
🔸 I don’t fight the market – if my Shorts aren’t working, it means I should be Long. Simple.
🔸 I only follow real traders – not fake YouTube gurus, not affiliate-link influencers, not dream-sellers. Just real people who know how to extract money from the market.

The market isn’t rational.
Going up? I go long.
Going down? I go short.
We’ll figure out the “why” later.
I just read what the market is saying right now.

Trading is hard.
Anyone who says otherwise is lying.

It’s mostly a battle with yourself: greed, fear, euphoria.
Even after all these years – the market still brings out every emotion in me.

But I’ve walked the path.
It was long. It was painful. But it was worth it.

For that one moment when it finally “clicks.”

So don’t give up 💪

@sumit1419543 Expenses = trading-related costs only (funded accounts, resets, data, platforms, etc.).

Don’t worry — I’m not including rent, food, or my emotional damage after a bad trade 😄

📊 March 2026 Report

💰 Funded PnL:
● Lucid Trading x1 150K LIVE: +$3,045.92 (4 tilts)
● TopStep x1 150K LIVE: -$934.16 (6 tilts)
Total: +$2,111.76

💵 Income: $12,000.00 | 💸 Expenses: ($3,983.76) | Net: $8,016.24

March wasn’t easy.

Managed to secure one payout ($15k) from Lucid LIVE, but then war-driven volatility hit hard.
At one point, I nearly blew both Live accounts (Topstep & Lucid).

Lowest point was around $3–4k.
Now I’ve pulled both back to $15k each (Lucid & Topstep).

Still in the game. Still profitable.
Remember: payouts minus expenses is what really matters.

P.S. Currently traveling around Indonesia 🌴
P.S. Bali is NOT overrated — it’s actually beautiful here 🥰

[waserek @waserek]

February Summary:

Great January. Tough February😆

Income: $22,350
Expenses: $6,565
Net: $15,784

Not bad on paper.
But
– lost my Live account at Tradeify
– lost my Live account at TradeDay
– burned 4x FTMO challenges trying to get it back

I don’t sell courses. No paid Discord. So I can afford to be honest with you 😆😆

Right now I’m down to:
• Topstep Live
• LucidTrading Live

Still in Thailand 🇹🇭
Currently trading only the first 90–120 minutes after NY open.

Less screen time means worse preparation sometimes.
But chilling in 35°C sun is worth it ☀️🌴

@wickhunta Send me Dm if you want be early user, free forever :)

[waserek @waserek]

@wickhunta It’s my trading journal that I’m building.
Focused on mental game and learning how to avoid tilt behaviors.

[waserek @waserek]

@yale123_ send me DM with your email if you want to get access for beta version

[waserek @waserek]

Great attitude!
In trading, the real game is eliminating the bad behaviors that come naturally to us.

Actually building a tool to help with exactly that — getting traders out of tilt and back to process.

Stay tuned.

[Moonie | @moonie10x]

@waserek Respect the honesty. I've blown more challenges than I can count doing exactly this — trying to recover losses by scaling up elsewhere. Now I'm focused on Topstep only. One account. One process. No chasing. Thailand looks worth it though
