I spent 2 years “trading” with no real strategy.
Convinced myself I was learning.
I wasn’t.
I was just losing slowly enough to stay in denial.
The day I wrote down my rules?
Everything changed.
Not because the rules were perfect.
But because I finally had something to follow.

You don’t need the best strategy.
You need A strategy.
One you understand.
One you trust.
One you can repeat.
Most traders fail because they keep searching for perfect.
Perfect doesn’t exist.
Consistent does.

A real strategy answers these questions:
→ What am I looking for?
→ When do I enter?
→ Where is my stop?
→ Where is my target?
→ How much am I risking?
If you can't answer all five, you're not ready to trade.

When your friends start to say you’ve changed, remember it’s because they don’t know how to say you’ve grown.

The faster and harder you try to succeed in trading, the longer it will take you.If you’re operating out of a need for money or greed, you will delay it.Let go of time, focus on systems.Show up, do the work every day and stick to your plan and you will win.

Passed 6x 50k accounts with a new firm today.\n\nThat’s potentially $10k next week.\n\nFelt nothing. \n\nI used to be ecstatic with this, now I don care.\n\nThe difference?\n\nI literally just follow my model.\n\nThe rest takes care of itself.

The market doesn’t care that you were right yesterday.\n\nIt will kill you today if you let that affect you.

Most traders blow accounts not from bad entries. From refusing to take the loss when they know they should. \n\nYou know exactly which trade I’m talking about.

The worst part about FOMO?
It feels like the right decision in the moment.
Every single time.
That’s what makes it so dangerous.
You’re not fighting the market.
You’re fighting your own brain.
And your brain is very good at lying to you.

That trade you FOMO’d into?
It wasn’t your setup.
It wasn’t your plan.
It wasn’t your edge.
It was just emotion wearing a disguise.
And now you’re stuck managing a position you never should’ve taken.
This is why you’re not profitable yet.

“I’m a full time trader”
Bro you have a $50k challenge and a gambling addiction.

Every trade feels like a guess.
Because it is.
No rules.
No criteria.
No plan.
Just vibes and hope.
That’s not an edge.
That’s entertainment dressed up as trading.
And the market doesn’t pay for entertainment.

If you can’t explain your edge in one sentence, you don’t have one.

A 20 minute task which will shape your next week:
Outline the next week before you go to sleep on Sunday.
When will you engage?
How?
There will be no more jumping in without a plan of action.
Eliminate compulsion.
This will happen, because you finally organised on a weekend instead of sat about doing nothing.

That 50k prop account can feed you, for a little bit.
But you’re ngmi if you rely on it.
Prop firms are a game.
A game to be beaten,
A game to be approached aggressively.
They win off you treating it like a personal account.
Play the right game.

If you’re broke, fuck personal accounts.
A small challenge shits on personal accounts when you have barely any capital.
Start off with small challenges.
They give you a taste of what’s to come.
The pressure.
How will you respond?
You never know until you try.
So you could buy a $25k challenge,
And potentially make money.
