I turned $583 into a million dollars in one year. I also blew up three accounts before that. The losses are why the wins eventually happened.
Most traders fail because they don't have a daily max loss limit. The moment you remove that guardrail, one bad day can erase months of progress.
You don't need 50 strategies. You need one strategy that you follow 1,000 times. That is how you find out if it actually works.
The first hour of trading is where 80% of the best momentum setups happen. If you can't be at your desk at 9:30, day trading is probably not for you.
Transparency is everything in this industry. I post every trade, every day. If I'm having a bad month, you'll know it. That accountability changes how I trade.
Day trading is a skill like any other. You can learn it. But most people give up during the learning curve, right before it clicks.
