Thank you for all the extremely kind messages and new connections. I’m not going to lie - it’s f*n scary but I loved doing it and hopefully can again one day.

over the years but one of the main rules … Always earn brownie points when you can. Girlfriend’s masters graduation on Thursday and I told her I’ve “booked” the day off and it’s 100% about her - “I won’t even check the markets or my phone”
I'm running out of superlatives for the incredible MWSS guests this year.... so lets just say I'm extremely excited about the next month! T4AC as well 🔥 🇺🇸

Here's one I won't forget in a hurry. At the time I was cursing not being able to locate and not having a decent average, turned out to be a blessing. Tough to draw the correct lesson from this one, could avoid tight halters altogether if afk or chalk up to outlier $VERB
For a long time, I’ve wanted to journal and share my thoughts, but something has always held me back. It’s certainly not one of my fortes, but as with everything you can’t improve without trying. So here we are. If people find it entertaining or informative then great, if not,
Sat at the airport, reflecting on a completely crazy few days. Not really sure where to start but

was just f*n insane and completely surpassed any expectations.
By busy, we had everything going on. Moved out of our apartment and I moved into this decent space right in the centre of town. Looks like there may be room for another 👀
On a serious note, at first I felt sorry for him. We spoke a fair amount, had a Discord room in common and he seemed like an okay guy. There were definitely lots of signs, but he would also talk about drawdowns and big losses, just enough to think that maybe it was all possible.
January ✅ Fun month, probably my most enjoyable ever. Awesome vibes across the community, especially IU. To anyone I’ve chatted with this month, I appreciate you all! $CNTX
That's a wrap for MWSS in 2023, what a year! So many fantastic guests, thank you all so much. There's already some big plans in the pipeline for 2024.

I f*n love trading and thinking about tickers, charts, tape, the process, executions etc for 14/ hours a day but then I just can’t switch off…. I just want to sleep and do it all again tomorrow.

3 days post surgery and I liked some of the scanner, so I tried my best to trade - lasted all of 5 minutes before just being exhausted and in pain, was asleep again by market open. On-off watched 3 Die Hard movies though, classic Christmas movies.
One of the weirdest changes happened to me in the past year or so and something that still amazes me, I’m not sure on the reasoning, it could be age/maturity or because of trading - I really hate being hungover. I value productivity and a clear mind over a short term fix.
Recovery sucks —flatlining for days, sleepless nights, endless movies, glued to the couch, zero reason to smile. But then, bam! Suddenly, it's like a breath of fresh air. Grateful for the bounce back (however small). 💪

100% I thought the conference was diverse in every way, especially style. We just need more Europeans so we can do T4AC Europe, perhaps Stockholm? Yacht party…. I know just the person
Lots to take away from

’s chart. Firstly lots of positives - traded very similarly except for the circle. However it was the circle that probably cost most trades their $ (was for me). Anyone taking a max loss on the frontside, missed a very clean backside.
Props to the trading community - I'm consistently impressed by how nice 99.99% of traders are. Had an awesome convo with one earlier who even invited me for a call to explain his system. Appreciate you all ✌🏼
Appreciate the people who keep it real on this platform. A few years into the journey and still no Lambo (jk) but definitely a few extra grey hairs. That being said, I wouldn’t change it, the process is just too much fun.
Some Real Talk:
Trading seems glamourous, it seems like a great life.
It is, and it can be.
However, it has moments filled with extreme self-doubt.
You begin to question everything.
You wonder if you should just give up and release yourself from the pain.
Was it all just
If I’d have known my girlfriend would become addicted to coffee in the US, and insist on making us both iced coffees everyday, I’d have taken her much sooner
Now though, the pity has subsided and I'm left with mostly frustration. Both at my own naivety and how I felt inferior comparing my trading to what we now know was all a façade. That classic lesson of don't believe everything you see online.
The last thing I want to add, this behaviour certainly does not come from a healthy place, the quest for societies approval and a dopamine hit can take people to all sorts of places. As sad as I, and many are right now, my peace and love also goes to this individual too.
I have to pay a very special thanks to
@InvestorsLive
. You didn’t need to be but you’ve continually been there for me and pushed me to achieve more. First with the interview, then getting me involved with IU and then suggesting I jump on a plane to Vegas. Thank you 🙏🏼

Trading in 2022, that's a wrap 🎬 I'll be taking a break from everything until the new year, including Twitter. Thank you all for the interactions this year, 2022 you've been a blast. Merry Christmas everyone and Happy New Year. See you in 2023 ✌️
A really funny moment for me every Sunday evening. I used to suffer from terrible

(hated work etc.), I would watch Netflix or something to escape. Fast forward a few years, I now spend my Sunday evenings watching Sunday Scans, no blues in sight

HAGW, I hope all your balls fall in the cup ✌🏼
Been even busier. Moved house (+office) over Christmas, hopefully for the last time.
I'm glad I gave an office a shot and no doubt it would be different if there was a few of us, but I just didn't enjoy it and much prefer working from home. Time to build a man cave instead.

That's a wrap for August - decent and yet frustrating month. Finishing with a best trade of the year yesterday and a white day today, 2nd of the week. Going to shank some golf balls at the range 🏌️♀️✌️
