I feel horrible... At the same time I don't really. I feel like it's not my money now. I actually feel a bit relieved. I only have $1900 left. This sucks
I am forward testing a strategy live, and it lost 5 ticks the first trade. Then I got so mad my first trade was a loser i just entered a trade then I got scared and made my stop smaller and smaller, and stopped out. My loss is actually bigger than $100
Quick observation: I'm not saying that if your username were "SuperTrader" that you would be successful, but I think that often how we think about things can have a reinforcing effect...
1900 is poker money, not trading capital come back when you have 25k plus no real business owner starts with 2,000 bucks good lessons for sure but this is just "play" money, nothing more so learn and waste it all, or play poker and waste it all 2k isn't turning into anything crazy sorry
I dont believe in paper trading....with that small an account I would trade 10 shares of the qqqqs or whatever, never having a stop greater than 2% of my account.
No doubt about it. And there's a reason why I'm "the1." If you think you are going to be successful you might just be successful. If you think you're gonna fail you absolutely will fail.
Are you completely sure trading is for you ? Does not seem like it is. Losses are natural in trading. No Heat
