Glad to be here and will learn from all of you.

I started trading by taking a few "classes" penny stocks, then options, then futures. I have a full time job, and think options make more sense to me however I do enjoy the futures and being done at the end of the day.

I have recently come across TPO and volume profile and see the genius in that, that is how I found this site.

Happy New Year!

Hey traders,

I'm a beginning trader with some formal trading education but little experience in the markets. I started learning about the forex markets, and have since been attracted to futures. I prefer to learn and paper trade instead of hopping right into the markets and develop bad habits

I want to build a strong educational foundation, construct a clear and concise trade plan, connect with more experienced traders, and hopefully find a mentor.

Sending good vibes to all traders working to better themselves - Jonathan

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the platform and wanted to send out a quick intro.

I'm an option trader turned algo trader. I've studied finance and trading for some time, and my greatest lesson is tat the real word barely resembles the text books! I'm really interested in improving my algo system and ideally finding a way to automate options hedging. I look forward to connecting with you all on the platform!

Thanks for having me Mike. I found this site by accident, but have found it helpful in reviewing some companies and products.

About me- Placed my first trade in a penny stock in 1999. Lost that $2K quick! Picked up options and traded those almost exclusively for the next 20 years. Made a lot of money and lost more, so I can't say I'm successful from a monetary perspective, but I have sure learned a lot and had some real moments in the sun that have convinced me this is the way I want to make a living.

Switched to futures a little over a year ago because of Joe Rokop over at Simpler Trading and discovering these "funding" companies exist. Since then I have been using these "funding" companies to work my skills. I use the term "funded" in quotes only to communicate I'm aware its still a simulated account, not to disparage them. I have earned a few "funded" accounts (and blew those) but have earned a couple more just recently, so we will see if I can be successful with those as in my evaluations. Progress id forward moving, and I feel like I'm on the cusp of cracking the code (which is me- not the market!). The goal is to pull 25K out of one of these and start back in the real game, while continuing to build those up. I think its quite an amazing opportunity these companies provide if one can be successful at trading.

Again, thanks for having me and I look forward to learning even more in here.

@idevbridge,....don't know if following is applicable, but fwiw, noticed this post today in "The Strat" facebook group, posted by a Justin Farmer "Exciting start to 2022 🥳! Tim Dunn and I have partnered up to bring you one of the best #TheStrat discord servers out there. Automated Intraday setups, live trading, education and more! ***********/Dm4Eh9w3Z8 "
(a ps edit: I see their discord link above does not appear to be fully loading, if so just go to the discord server entitled "Strattradeideas", that's Tim Dunn's.

Might also find the "tradeunafraid" platform of interest

Hi Big Mike!

Thanks for creating this forum and allowing me to join. I am as new to trading as a new born baby is to the world. I was introduced to this life after a friend convinced me to join a community that offered a trading bot. After spending a few grand we learned that the bot was trash and fortunately we got our money back. Unfortunately we had already began to pursue prop funding because the bot creator and community leader recommended it. Needless to say we have lost more money than we could have imagined and have wanted to quit many many times. We should never have been trying to get funded at our experience level. We would have been better of with a demo account and some training.

You would think that with the clarity I have now I would have quit trying to get funded but I'm too stubborn and I believe in the possibilities. I don't know if I'll make it as a trader but I know that I don't want to look back in a year and regret not giving it a shot.


Thanks again for having me,

DisciplineEF
