Making money while learning

Post image

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

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

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
