Thinking I post transparently here a bit more about me, myself and my fitness journey as well as charts. This might be a longer one but I won’t over explain myself, stick with me. In the last 5 months I became a Dad, moved house and switched my job. It was a busy period. Along with Christmas and countless birthdays in that time period my personal fitness no longer became a priority. I wanted to support my lady, appreciate my child and set up a new house to call a home. From 2021 - 2024 I was extremely driven in fitness, body building and getting jacked. This all took a back seat for me, and life became so busy I relied more on deliveroo than my training shoes. Not to say I got in bad shape but I slacked. My fitness goals have shifted from a ‘me’ perspective to a ‘family’ one. Though my boy is only 5 months, I want to build the foundation’s for a consistent happy, healthy family in every area of my life. Seeking the highest reward tasks with the lowest effort ones. A change, even a small one, in the right direction is a good one. I always used ‘X’ purely as a trading related platform, to research, but now I am going to start posting and uploading more bits about me, show what life is like as an ambitious entrepreneur, young dad, a partner and trader. I’ll see it as a public journal and try to benefit anyone the cares to follow and see what’s going on. Love and peace to all 🤞🏼 A new Journey begins today.

How can one be kind to there own unkindness? How can one learn not to judge themself for being judgemental?

Super slow market today, who trading it?

@fttcceo maybe we start taking larp signals

Shorting gold again with small size. Will add ~100 lots if we go higher. Risk - liquidation.

This Iran / USA war really shows markets do not move in isolation. Everything is intertwined with each other, fucking your 60/40 stock/bond split. Higher oil → higher inflation pressure Higher inflation pressure → bond yields react Bond yields move → rate expectations shift Rate expectations shift → equities, currencies and crypto react People often look at a market moving and ask: “Why did this go up or down?” Usually the answer started somewhere else entirely.

I was buying $HYPE in February and March for $25 - $32. I’ve sold the majority this morning at $56. Will buy back in on any deeper retracement. We could push higher but I’m not being greedy and happy to lock in profits. Lesson in this.

Funded Accounts have been designed to make you break your rules. 8% to 10% with good risk managment is not achievable on a consistent basis.

The only thing that is more important than making a profit is keeping it. Knowing when not to trade > Trading everyday.

Trading is the only job in the world where it is soley a 'You Vs You' environment. I do not get paid for trying to outperform anyone other than my bad habits.

$BTC couldn't even flip 20 EMA on the 4H from support. I don't think longs are safe right now.

I wonder how many traders will blow their account today around FOMC

@fttcceo trading the correct times in the market = faster runners :)

Funny how traders can hold a losing position for 8 hours but close a winner after 12 minutes. Your psychology decides your RR long before your strategy does.

Closed for +1.8R. Easy pickings from the NY open ™️

Shorted $NQ.

@fttcceo Excuse me sir

I’ve never seen a fat profitable trader. There might be a correlation there.

It only takes a second to scroll through the $USD cross pairs on the Monthly timeframe to see why trading Fx is next to fricking impossible right now.

@BigCheds Didnt even know this was a thing until ive just looked into it. Thanks for the idea 🫶
