Hope that you was doing great with your trading!

{quote} ok, no way in hell i'm making this goal now. BUT, i like to still challenge myself. I still want to pull another back to back profitable days like I did here (https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=9808328#post9808328). So here's a new challenge pull a an 8 day straight profitable days to end the month (my trading month ends on friday of next week). Whatever I win in profit, i'll still give $1000 out to a random subscriber.. you may ask "hilmy, why in the unholy fuck you're doing this?" My response is, why the fuck not....
had to admit defeat this month. Currently down about -$40k, with next two days..it'll probably bring it to about -$30k-35k
no way to recover for May now...

there were three things that i have noted this month

 

  1. Bullish trend that started from May 12th, that I wasn't able to take full advantage of (this could easily add 10-15% to my account). My "buy the dip" rules needed a little more polish
  2. Broke my rules as stated here (https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=9897482#post9897482). this fucked up the month a bit..
  3. made a tragic mistake on 5/30,. it was unusual day that it started with a drop near daily S3. I don't take a short when S3 has been broken, the probability of down move is like 2%. But somehow i missed it, so now i have made my pivots more visible and highlighted these areas in bold!.

so in summary, a combination of breaking the rules and mistakes that sealed my fate. looking at my equity, it seems like an uptrend is still holding. I'm noticing episodes of upward outliers followed by a crash. i may need to look into that lol.

As aggressive as I am, i'm not an idiot when it comes to risk. When i'm wrong i do get out (sometimes at painful levels) to preserve capital. It's important to be able to trade another day, then to hope for surviving a blowout

yea. i'm kind of used to around 20-30k swings these days. not sure if that's a good thing. 40k hurts..but not 'sleepless' hurt. i think now my number for depression would be 50-60k.

for now i'm gonna keep withdrawing anything over 100k, like i've been doing last couple of months. Works great on the mindset. the rebate helps too on months like this. ususally when i lose, i have the highest monthly volume (i.e december)..so that helps picking myself up a bit.

but maybe towards the end of the year, i'll withdraw only 50% of profits to grow the account. target is 300k. around there i can trade max position oanda allows (10 mil=$1000/pip). after that, i don't really have any other goals other then diversifying to real estate or something else...

sounds like a solid achievable plan, you trade full time or part time?

i trade part time, the profits are not anywhere near where i make at my job. so i cant live off it yet, plus insurance and all that shit needs to be considered..i need to make at least 250-300k or average out 15-20k a month for at least 2-3 years for me to be comfortable with forex. so for now it's a nice side income.

I feel your pain mate - it hurts. But you will come back stronger from it. Aggressive trading can cause big losses but it also makes big wins as you well know. Next month is yours if you believe it

I live in Tampa, go to Orlando every month. Have annual passes to Universal, it's great down time for a 4 day weekend every month. If you're doing Universal Studios, be sure to stay at on site hotel. You get free express passes to skip the lines at the theme parks. These are usually like $110/person/day. I prefer Royal Pacific but Hard Rock and Lowe's Portofino Bay get the passes also.
