There are no shortcuts in the trading industry, any more than there are shortcuts in, say, professional sports.

It is not what you know that kills you. It is what you think you know, but which just isn’t so, that kills you.

It is an insanely difficult profession, one that is beyond the apparent mental abilities of almost everybody, yet at the same time a profession that will reward you with wealth beyond your imagination, once you understand how this game really should be played.

#1 Rule in trading as a beginner...
Protect Your Capital. Above all else. This is the most important.
no money = no trading

Look at this. I've been a little behind with keeping my journal updated. finally updated it today. Something JUMPED out when i took a look at the last 30 days calendar.
Thursday is not a good day for me to trade is what i am seeing. If i just take Thursday's off from now on until i can identify my issue. i have a separate notebook with all my notes from those specific days. i will review it today and figure out what's happening. my trading buddy said that i might have already solved my issue by just being aware of it. We'll see. i'm going to dig in and take a closer look.

🥧 (π) Day
14-March-2025 Friday 🟥 day (SIM)
Friday is not a regular trade day for me. Personal stuff to do every Friday.
I just take it slow in SIM on Friday for practice and I will take a trade if I see it is A+++.
Didn’t take any real trades today. Just fucked around. Practiced. PLTR was disappointing. I had no business trading it.

13-March-2025 - Thursday 🟥 day (SIM)
Not feeling great today. Tired. Shitty sleep. Shitty mood. My wife got me all fucked up yesterday.
SIM day. My psychology is fucked up today and my mind is not clear and not functioning at an acceptable level.
While I’m here writing this…. I need to cut down my coffee to two cups per day, exercise every day and stop taking THC in any form.
No Jarad today. Maybe that’s another sign to just chill today.
In SIM. Not in the zone. Shitty trades. Took 8 trades. -$46. One trade hit by accident. Not intentional.
Just not focused today. Need to take today off and review and reflect.

i can't even look at the market right now. i'll probably get upset and have FOMO. i'm going to veg out and just get my brain back in order and do some exercise and no more coffee today and limit my THC intake. i can control only my self and how i react. i'm writing this for me. I don't anticipate anyone actually reading this.
