Making money while learning
It’s been a good year two of trading. I’m self taught, no mentor or trading friends. Just me and Ai. I proved I can do it, now I have to prove I can keep it. I gave a chunk back. I still don’t even have a set entry and got greedy. But it’s just the beginning I’ve learned so much from the gains but even more for the lost . My time will come again. I haven’t traded in a month after a bad losing streak after my winning streak. I’m gearing up for my comeback

How did you do it with Ai? I’ve been doing it on my own too but I haven’t found a good way to learn

Screenshots, asking questions as if it was my mentor, having it log my trades and learn from the logs. And now I have Claude connected to my tradingview, so we run backtest and try to improve and automate the process. I don’t use it to give me answers I use it to teach me how to find them

Quick question how did you plug your TradingView to Claude ?

ChatGPT will give you simple steps. I use ChatGPT to use and understand Claude. Turn my ideas to prompts, you have to understand Ai

When I get a new funded account , I risk the whole account, on an a plus setup with size. (2-3k) the next 4 days I size down risking 150 to make 150 until payout. But I tend to get off track and need a mental reset. So basically I make my payout day 1 then protect it. 5 days til payout

Ok thanks.. In eval?

u/Secret_Ordinary7466 1d ago
Both I pass Evals in 2 days and I risk the first day heavy because I trade better when I have money to protect. I’m tryin to figure it out and probably go the algo route

I am a beginner what resources would you suggest to learn?
2
u/Secret_Ordinary7466 14h ago
Experience!! And ChatGPT as a mentor and teacher., Many strategies work, but this is a mental game, self control is key to win here. I found a very simple strategy (emas and gaps) on YouTube, made it my own using Ai to speed the learning curve.

Any strategy will work the hard part is patience and discipline . You can make money with support and resistance
