I started small too. If I can do it, so can you. The only difference between me and the others who keep blowing accounts is that I'm patient and don't have expectations of turning a $100 account into millions in a few months. I know that if things go the way they've been going, I will be able to retire in a few years when I am in my early 30s. I would of course not do this because I love to learn about what's happening in the world and would do it even if I were not trading. And after I do that, if I can just click the mouse a few times a week and make more money, then why not?
This is a live account and I'm only showing you data for the past 5 months. Net profit in the past 5 months was about $60,000 USD. I have had 16 winning weeks out of 20. My big winning weeks are bigger than my biggest losing week, so I'm not just getting lucky with a couple of correct calls. My win rate is just a bit over 50%. I am by no means a big fish or someone who just has some magical understanding of what is going to happen next, but I've always loved to learn about financial markets, politics and the world in general. So, to be able to make $60K doing something I used to do for free when I was younger, is just plain amazing! I won't be disclosing anything else about my strategy or my account or my past trades, so please don't even ask. I was about to get rid of my explorer as I'm moving to a new broker and figured I could maybe convince a few of my fellow traders to get away from gambling and take a step in the right direction.
A new year and new beginnings! Good luck to you all in 2014!
