Earn 2 Trade the gauntlet

Dear ElectricSavant,


I am not active on this forum, but recently I have read a lot of your posts here since I could not believe how one could be that self-destructive and self-sabotaging. Also I can see from your profile that you are registered here since 2003. Still I think the poster of some of your posts must be a newcomer to trading. Many people offered you help it seems, even the guys from Earn2Trade offered you an analysis and help to make it better if you would shoot an E-Mail to them. You declined and some people here are on your ignore-list or even ignored you already. You really need to change your whole mentality and the way you look at results. You need to stop with that self-pity and whining on the forums. Thats all I read from you. You hop from one strategy to another, failing, complaining. You have to analyse your results and finally start to stay consistent with a strategy that suits you. Dont come up with hyperscalping or shit like that which you found on the internet posted by snake-oil people. I read your "trading-plan" and your daily/weekly/monthly targets and losses. Who calculated this nonsense? You are trying to make it better, but on the larger scale you make it even worse....

And on and on does your message flow.

Well, yeah. This username you are now using to post this message is obviously an alias. So which regular ET user are you really, and why are you posting anonymously?

I HATE people who hide behind anonymity. It is so....disingenuous, man.
 
As far as the gauntlet thing, I have said it before and I will say it again...Offer the thing for free, and you will make a lot more money than by charging people to take it with "drawdown limits".

That is NOT how the real world works in futures.

And offering someone a free opportunity to trade futures is how the futures markets work in the real world?
The trade candidates should have some skin in the game.
 
Small update, bumpy road so far.
Missed a lot of trades in the beginning of the Gauntlet and so missed a lot of profit.
Now i seem to be in a small losing streak/struggling period and it is eating away the small profit i made before.

Current balance 25339,24$, all time high was 27145,80$.
No reason to worry yet, still plenty of time left.

Time for another update, balance currently at 28467,20$ so a return of 13,87%.
16 trading sessions left.
 
Do you have an update on your funding experience?

I have made some stupid mistakes (meant to execute a few trades on the demo account provided with the Gauntlet account because i was working on a second strategy, these where ES trades which i had absolutely no intention on doing in my Gauntlet account).
Because of this i experienced a large draw down and as a reaction to that i made a few more stupid trades in an attempt to recover the draw down (very foolish mistake).

There where some other issues as well and because of all this Ryan offered me a 2 week extension on my Gauntlet so i have some time to recover my account.
It will be hard to do but i will try anyway.

Very unfortunate since i was doing very well before these mistakes, had a nice return and a decent average risk:reward.
 
I know I can make the $2k but it’s so easy but still so hard. I might do another earn2trade combine in Jan. The errors that result in revenge trades always does it.
