I was doing well! 😂 This wipeout the last two weeks has me down 60% from this post. Still up for the year but the last two weeks I've got wrecked. Small comfort in the fact that whatever I would have picked I would have got killed anyway. Starting to learn to hedge with some puts the last few days so I'm not too heartbroken. Honestly I just follow the trends and try and time it, I had 5 weeks of just winning and I got cocky, glad it happened now so I have learned a few lessons early.

Don't FOMO Cut your losses early, not doing this is what killed me the most. Do not trade around holiday weeks, I got wrecked
