over 5% earned today so I'll stay away from market today and will observe - I will trade again only if I see some super setup.

ok, I am closing this week and will come back to trading on next Thursday and Friday.
I am happy with the discipline I sticked to and am happy of my profits. If I will be able to stick to proper discipline all the time I will be financially independent within 3 years.

It's me again.
I managed to survive 40 days without bankruptcy ;-) and with nice profits.
Daily profit is usually between 4 and 8% (12.3% profit this week), and biggest daily loss I had was 20%, I switched it off and tried to forget about it. next day I was profitable again :-) except it and one day with 2% loss rest of the trading days were profitable. I also did one topup of cash and I'll keep doing it once for a while when I'll see I keep gaining.
My explorer is off as I don't like when people write me what I do wrong (some of them wrote me that 3% a day is impossible, but I'd rather to check my past statistics than listening to others). I know my trading style, I know what I was doing wrong and I eliminated it.

and I also understood that I shouldn't feel sorry for lost trades. as long as the bigger picture is showing gains I know I am closer to financial independence.

and on the end wise words I took from Sonic R system: "how many years would you go to college if you knew for a
fact that there was a million dollars a year job at the end of it?"

told you it's hidden ;-)
I was doing well till a point when something bad in my life happened, plus my indicators stopped working in this market conditins and I started seeking for profitable trade at all cost - and guess what? ;-)
but I was doing well anyway. I will topup my account till higher level but won't trade till I feel better and/or the market goes into strong trend again
