FTMO Challenge

Made a mistake or would have been up a little.

Still have enough Twinings green tea for a day.They were sold out last time I went in but I'll stock up tonight with luck.Probably won't post trades during the day as it's too slow and conflicting.Maybe something at lunchtime.
 
Another BeeGees day (stayin' alive).Should have scalped the nasdaq but nevermind.A bo has to happen sometime.Down £200.
 
Up £1212 but not playing a big bar like that further.Wait for US open.
 
That will probably do for today but we may get a bo up in us market hours.

To trade everything I might want to I'd need 50+ screens so I'll have to set up chartbooks per symbol.
 
Didn't wipe out but almost.Trying to be 'always in' again.Probably (another) £1000 wasted but at least reminded me how much I hate this.Opening an Interactive Brokers account to trade options once a month.
 
First thing is to get back to break even so I get another go.Should be able to do that.I started off yesterday tired and just got sucked into the screen.So picking trades on the forex side as that seems smoother and try for £1500 a day or so.You can do that with large but not lunatic lot sizing.

£137667 and it's close to 1pm and euro news is out at 12:45? so call it a morning.I'm still hyper for some reason.
 
Wasted a few hundred on gambling.If I can learn patience I'll be ok.Got out of the bo too early but if you get back in it's usually bad.

Again wasted a good day on gambling.Don't know why I'm so hyper and it's not real money (except the stake).I can still do it but with big lots and extreme patience.I hate sitting all day but you have to wait for the momentum and go big (imo).

Got another £500 so that was nice but playing around at the extremes isn't a good idea.Should be able to make £2500 daily I think so it's still doable.Too close to 1pm and it's sunny outside.

Nice comeback, what was the instrument?
 
Digging myself out again which I'm fairly certain I can do.Settled on a single method so should be consistent going forward (or that's the plan).See how it goes.
 
No way I can get it back.Anyway it served its purpose.I opened an IB account and will be share trading.Took over a decade to be free of that creep.I may post here if I'm doing ok with the shares.
