In the last two weeks I almost lost my funded account because I started to trade like a degen across eval and funded. Dialed back to the basics and refocused on simplicity. 1:3 RR in this trade. Very grateful and thankful. #NQ

Been having a rough last two weeks in the markets with #NQ because I decided to "try" a few new things & got greedy with profits targets as opposed to following my proven process. Decided to throw away all the crap and went back to the basics. We're back on track. Very grateful and thankful.

Patiently waiting for a set up on #NQ and noticing some similar behaviors as yesterday's trading session. Let's see if the market behaves similar today.

Took 2 losses small losses for -0.30% each on the Topstep accounts but was able to secure a W on this eval account. The SL was moved to +50 points after it hit +75 points. Risk free trade now. 1% profit secured at 50 points with potential of 2% at 100 points. #NQ.

Started the day with 2 losses but I was able to manage my risk properly and finished the day with 1% profit for this account. The market took me out at 75 points profit. It missed my original TP of 100 points by 5 points. RR on this trade 1:5. Grateful and thankful 🙏

Nice entry today in #NQ with the evaluation account for +1.5% after taking 1 loss for -0.30% on my funded account. Followed all the entry rules & proper risk management for both trades. Time to journal this journal, go to the gym and get ready for weekend football!

Good day today with #NQ. The original TP was set at 1:6 for a 2% target. As soon as we were +1.5% profit I moved the SL to +1% to protect our equity & secure profits. The market took me out at +1% shown in the blue arrows. The trade ended up being a 1:3 RR. Always follow your process objectively.

Even though I was able to capitalize on this trade & finish the day with +0.5% profits, today will be marked as a "not a good day" because of the way I traded. In order to improve as a trader you must be honest w/ yourself. A profit day doesn't mean a good day & a losing day does not mean a bad day.

Wouldn’t worry about it too much. Just a correction like the market always does.

One of the best trades this year so far for #NQ. I patiently waited for the set up & followed all the entry rules after taking 1 loss earlier in the session. I closed the trade at 100 points for a 1:6 RR & +2% profit as opposed to my original target of 1:9. This trade was taken on the eval account.

Took two small losses for -0.33% each on the Topstep accounts but continued to follow the system based on what #NQ was showing and was able to finish the day with a win on the evaluation account with MyFundedFX. Trade objectively. Trust your proven system. R:R 1:6 for this trade

Good start to the trading week with #NQ. Originally I was going for a 1:6 RR but decided to not get greedy since the market slowed down and took profits at 1:3 for a 1% gain shown in the blue arrows. Very grateful and thankful. Lets continue to grow. Belief, take action, stay consistent.

I took 2 losses w/ Topstep for -0.33% per loss. I liked the P.A #NQ continued to show & decided to get in a 3rd time w/ another prop firm (MyFundedFX). It worked out in our favor. One of my personal goals for Q1 is to get this account out of drawdown & get funded w/ MyFundedFX to also trade NQ there

Beautiful entry this morning in #NQ for the first trading day of 2025. Lowered my risk in this trade and still maximized on a nice move. Like usual the SL was moved to C.E once it hit our 1:1. This trade was a 1:5 RR. Now time to journal this trade, eat, mediate, read and gym time.

Happy new years Bluesky. Don’t wait till Monday to start you fitness goals. January 1st is today. Side note, most people will wait till Monday and today is a perfect day to start since most gyms will be empty. Take action. Stay consistent. Achieve your goals. Best of luck in 2025.

Good trade with #NQ today. SL was moved to C.E as soon as it hit our 1:1. RR was 1:3 for 50 points TP. When the market hit +45 points the SL was moved to +25 points to secure profits. I've had trades miss the 50 TP by a few points before. To avoid that going further I've added this additional rule.

Another beautiful set up this morning for #NQ. After it hit 1:1 our SL was moved to C.E. The market retraced & was only 2 points away from hitting our C.E but thankfully it played out in our favor. Good week this week with +2.16% growth. RR for this trade 1:3. Believe in yourself. Stay consistent 👍

This is one the fastest #NQ trades that has hit our TP in a long time. Literally 1 minute from entry to TP. RR 1:3. Taking a day off yesterday during FOMC really helped reset and rest my mind to come back strong today with a clear mindset. Good luck trading today fellow traders.
