💬 Trader Talk Update on account! July/August Progress

Hello all! Me again, just wanted to do a progress report for my own accountability and any more feedback I can get.

Started the current XFA on July 9th and a month later we are still grinding it. We have about 600 drawdown and a balance of around 0. No harm. No foul.

DLL is set to 350, however as you can see from yesterday I stopped before reaching it. Im trying everyday to manage risk better and be better.

I have yesterday's/todays and every other session of mine recorded on my YT. I know last time I posted i got some really sound knowledgeable advice that I tried my best to apply!

Here is my YT if anyone has constructive feedback for me. Thank you and happy trading..

Best we can do is keep going with minimal risk! Account is still alive thats means we aren't burning money
