Going live in Aptil

[Drapoli 2]

Hi, I have been part of the BBT community for more than 1 year (I was part of a different community before). During this time I have been investing in my education, learning more about good set-ups, managing risk, understanding psychology and other aspects of day trading. I have been paper trading for 6 months total with 1-2 months of live trading in between, where I learnt about the importance of psychology is. Aside from paper trading during regular trading hours (I mostly trade in the first hour from the open) I have been using the new replay function in DAS which provides great opportunity for practicing all the major strategies (I wish it had L2 data, though!). My performance is not as impeccable as that of Thor, Brian, Andrew or other seasoned BBT members but it has been improving over time. After reviewing the trades I took in Jan, Feb and March 2020 I though I was finally ready to trade live again. However (probably because of the current market conditions) my performance during the past week and a half has been horrible. I feel as if all of the rules and strategies I have been developing/following do not apply to this market anymore. I wonder if any of you is in a similar situation and if you have any word of advice. At this point I could go live and keep my size as small as possible, or paper trade for another 3 months until market conditions improve....or get worse 🙂 Cheers!
