Lock in 7 points at 31.25 and hitting the sack. Lowered limit buy to 5869. If shit hits the fan, I may be safe here. Best to use a B/E stop as that's above yesterday's close, but feels stupid to not take something off. I'm really starting to believe we'll hit SPX 5800 tomorrow and possibly fill that election gap completely, but the path there may be rocky.
FWIW, I don't distinguish between my account and my Tostep accounts. All the money is real to me as I can transfer it my bank and when I use to it pay bills or buy stuff everyone so far has taken it. Honestly, the Topstep gig is a terrific opportunity and if you are consistently profitable on your own but maybe afraid to trade size, the copy trading of multiple accounts just can't be beat. The pressure is less because you might only be trading 1 or 2 lots on the screen, but you're really trading 5 to 10. I did a 5 lot trade on NQ in my personal account yesterday and I nearly had a coronary event. It isn't any different than doing a 1 lot in each of my five Topstep accounts simultaneously. But with respect to my mental poise, it makes all the difference.
Congrats B1. 1.1MM views! Time for ES 2025/2026. When I logged in tonight I thought it would already be going. Ahhh, you have till the 1st I guess, but historically you always start them early. Either way... "The Number One Thread On The Worldwide Intrawebs."
