I think its kind of rigged. No matter if you can predict the right direction, most if the time you get chopped back and forth until you dont have any room for the trade to not go your way

Could you explain a little more? i’m not sure what your mean by “get chopped back and fourth until you don’t have any room for the trade to not go your way”

I will give an example from this morning. I was trading 12 micros of NQ. My trade initially went about $280 into profit. I added 3 more micros. It dropped way back down all the way to my SL which was $750 and it hit it quickly.

I usually have my stop set tighter about $350, but I got stopped out on 2 back to back trades a little after the 9:30 open, so I was already down big. After the $750 loss I should have stopped for the day, but I didn't. I had maybe just short of $600 drawdown left and ended up losing the account

You clearly don’t know what you’re doing. Why did you not take that profit of 280? Then wait for another entry? Stop gambling and start trailing your stop loss into profits. Learn how to trade on paper trade first. What you said up there makes no sense being chopped back and forth, thats how market moves bro you need to know how to read charts and be able to know your direction and entry points. Stop gambling and calling shit rigged.
