So you are saying that your strategy would be profitable but you just screwed it up by trading it manually?
Most of my life I had jobs or businesses going and traded, so it helped with the stresses of having to make it. Perhaps when you working, you can start up again? Good luck.
Just look at it as a 7 year vacation from rush hour commutes,a-hole bosses and co-workers you cant stand.
You'll land a gig, apply yourself well like never before, get settled in with your crew and roles, stack some frogs and after job situation is on an even keel, find yourself swing trading before work, enjoying it more, making as much as the job. Keep the job, keep trading, play poker with the boys once a week, keep the ladies being good to you, etc, etc, etc. You gonna love it. Break a Leg! BTW, generate your job offers in pairs and keep your resume updated at all times.
I wouldn't take advice from somebody who's unstable mentally like easymon1 https://www.elitetrader.com/et/thre...ding-is-dangerous.372693/page-25#post-5769403 https://www.elitetrader.com/et/thre...ding-is-dangerous.372693/page-25#post-5769561
Just stumbled upon this...Haha... Not quite correct. Yes back below 100K after withdrawing probably 500K over the years. It has not been great over the past years, and still below 100K, but I am still in the game (and having my full time job!). Will make an update once I get above 100K... still working my way towards that. What's that rumour about going prop and just getting by? That must be some concocted story.
And thanks to Covid, if you work for a good company that allows you to work from home permanently, now you would never have to deal with rush hour commutes, a$$hole bosses and co-workers that you can't stand.
Your lacking sense of humor speaks volumes about how little I take your opinion personally. Love ya babe, lol. BTW, there is zero advice in there besides the last line of my post to Stevo, and actually, I would be interested in your views on that last line...especially why you might think those are not good ideas. "generate your job offers in pairs and keep your resume updated at all times." Granted a good chance that job offers will be generated and closed before a resume is even passed through. By dealing with the decisionmaker, it has happened to me twice that HR chased me down after the fact in order to "complete their files." Feels great. Given Stevo's been out of the mix for 7 years, he may need to have some of the more traditional approach. He has a good head on his shoulders and will dig the next episode without doubt.
