sometimes I just think, trading is such a weird thing you get reminded of that every time you try and explain what you do to someone who doesn't know how trading works can you relate?

@Soupbones8008 @TheStonkDad mind if I dm you? I built something around this, think it can be helpful

@_danieldag @TheStonkDad Oversizing

Better use CODE “DAD” or else. Love y’all

@CryptoAnna17 @TradingLucid @fnfutures @Alpha_Futures_ just sent you a dm🤝

@_danieldag @TradingLucid @fnfutures @Alpha_Futures_ sure!

Passed @TradingLucid, made 330 on funded and on @fnfutures , blew Alpha, max loss on @Alpha_Futures_ . I'm really glad it's Friday! I don't want to trade like this. I need to get back my focus and change how I trade...have a great weekend!

@MR_4X_TRADER Great work man! mind if I dm you? I built something around this

One week ago, I cleared my first futures funded account, but overconfidence led me to overtrade and take a -$610 loss on Day 1. I stopped revenge trading, went back to my plan, and followed my rules with discipline. Today, I cleared another 25K evaluation account — #Lucid

@jamaljofx yeah that's usually what happens, emotions enter and you feel like you "blackout", mind if I dm you? I built something around this

@_danieldag I guess yes, I don’t even know what happened. All I know is that the market absolutely destroyed me😂😂😂😂

I only needed 3 more trading days with at least $150 to qualify for a $2k payout, and I screwed it up…

Day 9 of Eval Jail — it’s over. Managed to pass the stack today. After what feels like forever, it’s good to finally see the green button again. I’ll be honest, it wasn’t my cleanest day of executions. I knew I only needed a couple hundred dollars to get over the line, so I took a few stabs at it. The trade that got it done was the 10:50 long into London high. Macro time. Huge displacement candle. 15m gap respected. Nothing spectacular, but the job got done. Have a great weekend everyone. Let’s run it up next week.

@CryptoAnna17 @TradingLucid @fnfutures @Alpha_Futures_ yeah I get that, mind if I dm you? I built something around this that might help

@_danieldag @TradingLucid @fnfutures @Alpha_Futures_ I think I was tired what causes lack of focus in my case...the volatility was crazy on Friday...I should stay away...when you are mentally tired you stop analysing,,,

@Benjamin_SMC followed the process at least which is what matters

Am i Extremely mad that as i go to click buy price rips to tp? YES. am i going to let it make me trade emotionally? NO -1rr today. sad but its a part of the game. we will come back next week stronger.

@elevate_trade @DiegoBTrades Have you tried enforcing your rules so that you can't blow up in 1 day? Hard rules?

@_danieldag @DiegoBTrades Not patient enough to deal with 1k drawdown.

Finally built my buffer trading 1 micro max 2 its taken 6 weeks i know its not the cool huge payout or flashy pnl but super proud if I can do it on 1 micro why can't i do it on more will slowly keep building adding more accounts and more consistency my patience on these accounts has been tremendous just gotta keep it up

@tamyok_trader mind if I dm you? I built something for this that I think would help you

@_danieldag the only thing I've tried is a DLL but sometimes it makes me tilt as well, just need to be more disciplined. easier said than done tho ig

blew my account. today was one of those days I actually didnt wanna trade as I didn't get a lot of sleep, but it's hardest to stay discplined on days like this where i'm too tired to stay vigilant. couple that with boredom and wanting to do a single trade it turns to many. haven't had a day like this in a while i know i was tilted tho bc i traded right out of the gate for ETH. i think i also became careless after passing the trailing drawdown we try again i tried to short again ofc and then at the top i go for a long haha i gave up and tried joinng the party, just too impatient Payouts since May after locking TF in: $25K #propfirms #NQ #takeprofittrader

@narcisofa keep it up mate

Funded Account - Day 17❌ I messed up and blew up the account. That’s exactly what happens when you break your own rules. Invested: $49 (Topstep Combine) + $149 (Activation) = $198 Payout received: $420 Total time: 35 days Final balance: +$222 Solid ROI (112% return)… but man, lesson learned the hard way. Back to the drawing board. #DayTrading #FundedAccount #FuturesTrading #TradingJourney #Profit #Consistency #TradeSmart #Topstep #Futures

i built a trading diagnostic with Claude. not a 40-page pdf. not a funnel with a course at the end. not a discord invite. one page that asks, then reads you back. it's free: app.tradeguard.co/7percent here's what's inside: → 5 questions. behavior only, no strategy talk → it finds which of the 3 account killers is yours: the revenge trade, the loss-limit breach, or the overtrade then it builds your guide: → why your brain does it → what it looks like while it's happening, so you can catch it live → your actionables, starting today i called it the 7% report. one study tracked 300,000 prop accounts. about 7% of the traders behind them ever took a payout. the rest paid for a challenge and never saw one. no team. no funding. just me and Claude every trader has a breaking point. most find out which one is theirs the expensive way. this takes five questions. app.tradeguard.co/7percent free. either you find your breaking point, or it finds you.

@jp_mmxm Machine🔥💯

28 days ago, I launched the 4 Week Edge Program. It just ended. The results? 👇 (Screenshots below) I’m 15 years old, documenting my road to $1M+ through trading ICT. If you want to follow the journey in real time this is where it’s happening. And this is only the beginning, once exams are out the way next year, things will get insane. Stay tuned...

ahh I see that makes sense, I didn't know that, and I actually built a tool for this, which for now only works on Tradovate traders, where this problem doesn't exist so let me ask you the real question: what would a lock have to look like for it to actually hold you on the day you really want around it? you clearly think about this from inside the constraint, genuinely curious what your answer is.

@_danieldag In Topstep, you cannot lock your risk settings for the entire week. You have to reset or adjust them daily. This creates a gap: on days when you're emotionally compromised, you're more likely to break your own rules.

Funded Account - Day 16 📈 This game is 100% psychological. I was sitting at +$137 RP&L and decided to squeeze in one more trade just to clear the $150 payout threshold. Market immediately reversed, and I gave it all back plus more. Now at -$93.23. I’m a full-time Sr Manager on a 6-figure salary, with a BS in Industrial Engineering + Master’s degrees… yet I still fell for this classic trap. Proof that no amount of education, income, or status protects you in trading. #DayTrading #FundedAccount #FuturesTrading #TradingJourney #Profit #Consistency #TradeSmart #Topstep #Futures

@zackii98 @TacticalT888 seem like I can't send you a DM, can you send me one and I'll reply there

@_danieldag @TacticalT888 Haha it was a honest assessment of my own situation that im going through right now. Hopefully sharing it was helpful 💯. My DM is always open bro 🤝

How the fuck can i clear 3/4 evals, make technichally 9k in total, cleared all in 3-4 days but cannot seem to make 1000$ on a funded. Make it make sense to me. Where am i going wrong?

@pgtradez I used to take fomo trades before as well, now I'm using this, so if my rules are not met I can't place the trade, send me a DM and I can show you more

ES shorts -1048.90 DOL 7/10: not the best draw, targeting a 4h bullish gap Entry 5/10: first entry decent should’ve been BE, second was terrible. FOMO and chasing losses Emotions 0/10: lost control after the first loss, sized up and lost the second trade. Disappointing

@bkfcorp Makes sense that's great!

@_danieldag Partly because things that makes sense usually didnt that day. it made me frustrated and it shouldnt have. Im glad that my maximum loss locked me out otherwise i think i would have maybe lost the account.

🔴session 17: Am i cooked ? P&L: $-139.34
