@I_Am_The_ICT Hey michael, do you have any recommendation on book like the lucinda basset one, positive talkking to youself .. What trick worked for you ?
@I_Am_The_ICT I mean the nature of trading is gambling, like poker. It took me time to realise that. Knowing when to fold or when to raise is what helped me. Risk is risk . Not matter what you do or you model. That it why everyone can blow up and any age no matter there experience .
@I_Am_The_ICT It was not that for me . It was fear because of mental issue and the dopamine drop that follows a loss. Even if i know I can get that loss back, that dopamine drop is what killed me . Risk management < quality engagement and less time
Last two days have been psychologically tough for me in trading
I am not sure if its the price action or me trying to size up but since I had a good month in June I have tried putting on some serious size on my live (10-20 minis) and it's really fucking me up
I will be up 15k in a trade and it will come and round trip me and it's really getting to me emotionally because I never grew up with a lot of money and when I get BEd I always think "I could've just given that to my mom" or "I could've just bought a new car with that" and it just fucking sucks.
Maybe it's price action too I mean usually my tps do hit but maybe I am just going for too much right now, not really sure but I really need to rant about this and get this off my mind and reset.
If I am only trading with 1-2 minis and I am up 3k and get round tripped I don't care bc I cant do much with 3k so I dont think about it much but this is psychologically a different level for me ngl
I think what I am going to do is reset Monday and just go back to normal size for now until I feel comfortable again but last two days were tough and I am glad you guys can listen to my struggles because we all have them, and this has been a huge issue for me
Trading is fucking hard do not let me trade recaps and do not let me ragebait get to you if I ever say its easy, its not
This has taken me 7+ years to master and even 7 years down the road I am still struggling to size up to 10+ minis
Enjoy your weekend everyone
@I_Am_The_ICT Donโt let them sing. Even if you prove it they will doubt it. It is crazy how people lies to themselves. That is why trading is the most difficult job in the world.
