A few months ago my biggest months were in the $17k range. May 2020 was a new biggest month at $22k. June was $30k. In the last 3 days I’ve made $21k. Exponential growth is truly amazing.

In trading, as in any form of advantage gambling based on probabilities, the money comes in chunks. A day can make your week. A week can make your month. A month can make your year. I’m up $29k realized profits over the past 3 days, while using $500 risk per trade. #Forward 🐢

So many traders I know are in their early twenties. I’d give up so much to have discovered trading at such an early age. If you are getting into trading in your twenties, you are opening the door to making more money than 99% of the world at an age where most are just starting.

Finished the month +$46k, worst month of 2021. Main issue this month was swinging a bunch of longer term trades that didn’t work out. Cut them the first two weeks for pretty hefty losses. Just counting trades opened in March I made $62k just $2k shy of my best month. Not too bad.

13 green weeks in a row. That’s 33% of my entire trading journey now solid green. $33,300 in that time. 3 losing trades this week. That’s a lot of 3’s. I never could have accomplished this without @timothysykes and @StocksToTrade . Thanks! #NoDaysOff

Best long trade yet! I swung $MRMD from .515 for about 2 weeks, with a couple adds along the way. Sold the last of it today for $9k profit! #OneGoodTrade #Forward 🐢 @timothysykes

Wow, really expected a slower day given the holiday hours. Longed 2.5k $MLNT at 7.32 for the breakout. Sold in the low to mid 8s for another $2,100 profit. That makes nearly $4k on the day. So I can count $2k for tomorrow to keep up the $2k a day. On to the next. @timothysykes

There’s no one book that’s gonna be the key to overhauling your trading and making you profitable. Same goes for videos, DVDs, mentors, gurus, services, brokers, platforms or any of that. There are no shortcuts people! There’s no hacks! The key is work! Work and experience.

@timothysykes 1.3 years ago I started trading full-time, left a job I did not enjoy and made nearly a quarter million in 2020. Last summer I paid off my car. In the last 6 weeks I paid down $60k in high interest consumer debt while making nearly $100k in that time period...

What a nice gift on a slow day! Longed 700 shares $XBIO at 10.179 avg, scaled out into the massive run up to the 16s. My second add was timed perfectly before the run. Made a cool $2,276 profit and a 32% gain. $2k a day keeps the real job away. On to the next. @timothysykes

Most people don’t even realize that position sizing is actually the single most important factor in long term capital growth once you actually have a positive expectation strategy. I highly recommend you become familiar with the Kelly criterion if you aren’t already.

Finally covered $DEVV for my best trade ever! $9,185 total profit with a 90% gain. Had to hold through some pain, but it was more than worth it in the end. #OneGoodTrade #Forward 🐢 #FridayFeeling @timothysykes

Closing in on $12k profits for the month with 3 trading days left and over $2k unrealized profits in trades I will exit in the next couple days. Consistent gains are finally a reality. Thanks to @timothysykes for teaching me this skill. #nodaysoff

Pnl curve starting at the beginning of last week when I implemented my new rules. 60 trades so far. Minimal drawdown. And this weekend I added some more rules to keep me out of some midday trades. Those are helping increase win rate. This is still using around $200 risk max.

I don’t mention it much on here because ultimately it shouldn’t affect your trading, but I’ve made all the gains I have this year, approaching $80k profits and 400% ROI ytd, using accounts that are under the PDT limits.
