El OchoCinco, Your trading mindset is sort of like mine. It doesn't sound like you are a mechanical or rule based trader, but more on the gut feel, take what the market gives you mix in with a semi discretionary/mechanical based trader. Am I correct? I don't wanna be in your business , I am...

This my trades from today and yesterday . I'm down for the week so far. 1 contract. I go up 2 tommoorw

Cool beans. I start posting here too my trades. I didn't know yall was keep going since last week. Rock on

That is 1000% right. That's the bottom line. And the only way to know what you are doing is to trade daily. Get in the trenches.

El OchoCinco, I agree, and reduces stress, builds confidences, and limits force trades.

Great job trader99 and I am proud of you. Thanks for sharing your journal. I been at it for about 3 years and I am still trying to get consistent profitable. It is a process, that is for sure.

John9999, Good job John. I'm happy you find a profitable money making strategy that fits your comfort. Either way doesn't matter, if it makes money, it makes sense. I like day trading cause that's all I know and limit myself to 1 or 2 trades per day. And I like to feeling of making money...

dozu888, Noone knows when a bull or bear market is coming, so I'm not sure I understand you clearly. We are talking about day trading. I think I speak for all day traders when I say, We don't care if it's a bull, bear, cat, lion, goat, mouse, dog, Trump, Obama, kid...blaH blah blah market...

Yes you right. Ignore that.

John9999, I trade with the trend of the day. So If I get stopped out twice, that simply means the market has no trend of the day. No big deal Mr. Market, I take my two losses, and we play again tomorrow. Nice and easy. I save my money for another day.

Hello El OchoCinco, Great trading. You trade very well. That /NQ has been moving well this week. Few questions on your trading style, do you enter and exit with all contracts (ie., all in, all out).

John9999, I trade futures as well. From my about 2-4 years of trading actively daily, there is no real way to avoid choppy days. For me, if I have two consecutive losses in a roll, I stop trading for the day and defined day price action as choppy.

Here is Friday update. I will sum up my weekly total later today when i get off work. Looks like I lost the challenge, but I enjoyed the challenge. it was fun. I continue next week too.

Peter10, First Combined: $400 2nd Combined: $150 TST starts me with a drawdown of $1500, and the fee is $150 a month. This means after 10 months, and I am not funded, then TST is winning and I am losing. It all doesn't matter. I don't want to trade my real capital yet.

El OchoCinco, I agree with you. No need for me to waste my own capital trading when I am not ready. TST is a real challenge and making money opportunity

Thanks Robert, It was pertaining to the member talking about the broker trading against retail traders.

Hello Robert, May I please have your opinion/suggestion/comment regarding post #17 here? https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/trading-advantage-institutional-vs-retail.324014/page-2#post-4710599

eaglefeather, You provided some interesting comments here. Is this true what you are stating? If this the case, how can retailer make money if the broker is "trading against me"? I have never heard this before. Thanks

Peter10, Yes they did fund me, but after 3 weeks in funded I was booted because I hit there drawdown limits. Then I had to start over.

Trade4gainz, I am doing TopStepTrader in a few months myself. I was with TST about 8 months ago, I return to them soon in the 30K account.
