Day 16 update: +0.9% on the day, account sitting at $117. Running some open positions I'm letting ride for now.

It's been a solid session overall. Caught some interesting opportunities riding on the Venezuela-related market narrative—the kind of trades you don't see coming until the pattern clicks. Not the flashiest move, but it paid off.

The key here is staying patient with positions and not getting shaken on small moves. Sometimes the best trades are the ones you set and forget while the market does its thing.

117-dollar account this small is still messing around here, really has too much free time.

This guy's account still has 116 bucks in "set and forget," I laughed. Is this the legendary financial freedom? --- Venezuela-related narrative trading, really good at finding it. While others are sleepwalking, you're over there making money. --- A 0.9% increase and you're proud? I feel like I'm looking at my own account😅. --- "Not shaken by small fluctuations"—how strong does one's mental resilience need to be? Or is it that the account is too small to see the fluctuations clearly? --- Wait, so it's just 117 bucks operating there? Is this real? Still "let ride"? Are you just playing or really trading? --- Using Venezuela as a story to turn things around, you do need some skills, but it's only 0.9%, brother. --- I can also do "set and forget," but the problem is, once I forget the account password, I really forget it.

Ha, it's that kind of inhumane market again. Only staying still like a mountain can make money. I also didn't react to this wave in Venezuela.

This wave in Venezuela is indeed interesting, but $117 is still too conservative. You have to dare to gamble.

ngl that venezuela play smells off... like who's *really* frontrunning that narrative before retail even catches the scent? set & forget is nice copium but the dark forest doesn't sleep. +0.9% tho? not bad if it's actually *yours* and not some MEV extraction happening silently behind the scenes lmao
