Follow my daily journey as I grow a $14,000 futures trading account with the goal of 1% daily compounded gains. Learn my strategies, mistakes, and successes.
I want to be straight about how this started, because the honest version is worse than the version I almost wrote.
I did not have a thesis. I did not have a system. It was FOMC week and I decided to gamble.
That's it. That's the whole setup.
One micro contract, a $434.96 margin call, a third of the account gone in two days, and a liquidation warning. It closed for +$88.00.
I trade futures with my own money and write up what actually happened. Real fills, real size, and the Thursday I pulled a stop loss and lost $7,000.
