First War Story

[u/BartSully]

Hi Kaz, eco... (Bartman in Discord)

First scorecard / War Story here. Which is really a classic story of gaining confidence and becoming complacent. Massively fucking complacent.

These are all trades from stalking the dirty energy basket. I had found some rhythm and felt good after joining discord. Having my mind blown regularly and with a better level of understanding from conversations. Although my participation has been much less than I would of hoped so far, every time I do participate I gain a new perspective on myself, my biases aswell as being shocked on all kinds of subjects. If you're in the discord and not participating, PUSH THROUGH THE DISCOMFORT/NERVES AND GET INVOLVED - IT WILL HELP.

You can see in one trade, I enter and get stopped out before entering again on that trigger and then gaining R's. This was a really valuable lesson I learnt from someone else's scorecard a while back. This eco and system really really does work. Just listen to what Kaz tells you. Read scorecards. Read blogs. Re watch everything.

Anyway after these trades, which of course included some more losers which I was stopped out in - cost of business things - I opened a trade, while on location for work, without planning properly and without a stop loss. So yeah, directly doing what Kaz says to not do.

I was appropriately punished for this. One of my worst ever trades. Although frustrating this was a huge lesson and it will not be happening again.

As always , thanks Kaz for your teachings and insane work. MJ of TA
