How do we know this doesn't more point to the herd mentality and potential lack of objectivity on an individual post, because of a pre-conceived bias?
there is already a es journal thread, hang out there for few months to see how everyone else is doing. i assume you already knew futures trading is really a highly leveraged game, 2.5k is barely enough to carry just 2 micro lots overnight with zero mistakes allowed, bull or bear. you must either have a bigger account to withstand the drawdown or close out positions before the bell rings. i can also tell you that in 2021 all system go year, i turned 15k to nearly 250k in es trading alone for a porsche 911 amount in less than 2 months, a 5-figure day green day was repeatable when you lobbied 20-25 contracts per round trip. but in 2022 i gave back near as much in the first three months until i realized it was a bear market. there is nothing to brag about because there are bigger and smarter players out there every day looking at what you are looking at. cme is a casino, no one would miss you.
Because I don't like trolling and prefer voice and in person communication over typing messages on the computer? If you guys in general are so good with collaborating why is almost every thread in hook up a complete disaster and troll fest? I could see your point more if the other threads weren't like that, but the data says you're making shit up.
That's the entire point of my post. If you don't believe it that's fine, but what you're saying is irrelevant. I am day trading, not holding overnight. What I do works regardless of market direction. No, it isn't rocket science or some holy grail. Who cares if someone is bigger or smarter? I am not like you, I don't care about the bravado and pride. Looking to improve my life. What I am doing works consistently and if can make the income I want for my life, then I can be content with that. Can't even imagine mention bragging to be frank. That's good that you're at the point though that you consider pride more important than money, means you must have made a lot.
Note my gentle wording as I posed a query re your interpersonal skills. Then note your response which largely validates the query.
