hey am a 18 year old girl and I started trading last year around September. I have not been a profitable trader but recently I flipped 65 dollars to 350 dollars in just 3 days trading gold but I ended blowing up the account the next day. I was so hurt and very disappointed in myself and I promised myself to never again repeat the same mistake again. After that I started another challenge to 1000dollars and I managed to make around 500 dollars in that week so I was following my rules and that did pay off until. I was so overconfident and I entered a trade with high lots sizes, no stop loss and no confirmation to my entry . The market was unforgiving and I blew the account within 20 minutes. The promises I made to myself to be better and I broke that. I was so disappointed , angry at myself so I just cried my heart and soul out until I slept.
I realized that it wasnt the markets or anyones fault but mine so if I was to quit it I knew that i would regret it a lot in the rest of myself so I decided to sit myself down and be what I was expected to be because I knew what I was supposed to do. Now lets say am a little smarter than last time and l learned my mistake at the hardest way.
Thankyou for sharing your story.
