January 2025 is a Wrap +$27,585.75 💰 20 out of 21 Days = 🟩 Couldn't be more pleased. Not my biggest $ month ever, but my best trading month ever. Will recap today and some things I learned this month in a video soon. On to February!

In all aspects of life, this advice will ring true. Stop focusing on trying to change things you don't control. Focus on changing yourself and watch what happens to the rest.

RT @MrClutchTrades: I feel like a fraud the last two days. I went on tilt. Luckily my risk management never changes, so my tilt just looks…

Video recap of the two days of failure.

@TradersParadise It was eye doc seeing if you would really send it to someone else 😂

Check out the breakdown of what happened to me the last couple days of the week. This is a masterclass of what not to do.

@tradermike1234 Stuff like that affecting you is real. Always amazes me how my bad weeks are always when I'm sick, traveling, trying to trade between, etc. I know you'll crush next week!

The quickest way to be successful at trading is to be honest with yourself. Ask yourself before every trade, “is this an A+ setup?” Tell yourself the truth and watch your trading change.

@BigLeBounceski Very nice! It’s honestly the losses that get us. We hate losing so we need to make it up quick and that’s where the spiral starts.

🤣 you know I was just working up a post about this, but it’s really kind of crazy to think of how little room for error there is and how wide the differences in results can be. For 25 days I took exactly the trades I should and it was all green. Two days I get off track a little and it’s a mess. I had all these losing trades, missed the trades I should have taken that would have been green. The tiniest little decisions shifted so much.

@CalebICT Happy late Bday bro! 23 going to be the best one yet.

@Duality60 Appreciate it!

@BigLeBounceski Yeahi agree! Honestly I got bored of not having any good trades and just started trading anything and everything it felt like.

@sulsetrades Currently funded on TickTickTrader and have a bunch of evals about to pass on Apex and ETF. Going to add on TopStep, Tradeify, and Family soon.

@sulsetrades Nice! I haven’t but plan on grabbing some TopStep accounts in the near future.

I always say, it's just when you're flying highest that the market will punch you in the mouth. Never get too confident or cocky. The market can humble you very quickly.

Think about this next time you feel like your trading is spiraling out of control and bad decisions are piling on top of one other. The compounding spiral of tilting is a real thing. One small bad decision can lead to many very big bad decisions in succession. You can go from cruising along to crashing and burning in a very short span. This is magnified in trading where the market is ruthless. But you can stop it at any time. It just takes one counter action to the decision making process to completely upset the tilt and bring you back to center. The key is recognizing it’s happening and taking an action to break yourself out of it. The quicker you can recognize it and take action, the quicker you’ll rejoin the path you were previously on. So make a note of the feelings or actions you present when you’re tilting and do regular check ins with yourself to see if you’re experiencing any of those feelings or actions. If you are, take action immediately, by any means necessary, to limit or even eliminate the damage that could easily be caused.
