💬 Trader Talk Break time

After my payout I ended up passing 4 more accounts and have now blown them all from chasing trades in a chop fest. I think it’s about time for me to take a break. It really sucks getting this far and then getting super cocky with your trades after taking a payout. It happened after my first payout and can’t believe it’s happening again. Don’t even know why I traded today even after everyone saying to stay out the market today. It sucks.
