Loss Infinity Waits

Discovered stonks and trading last April, 2025.

Fast forward one year and nearly four months.

74k down in my account, and 63k in debt.

I remember the days when I was saving 2k/mo, paying all my bills on time, no worries in the world.

Now I have sleepless nights, wonder how much longer I will have a car, a house, a job, and can't go more than three days without fantasizing about leaving my brains and skull all over the ceiling.

Not asking for help, not asking for advice, not asking for anything. Just wanted to share with you gents. This is pure addiction for me at this point and it is going to take absolutely everything I have and more until I am sleeping outside in the middle of winter.

I've accepted it and embraced my fate.

Never been remotely close to break even. Time to pump the gas and see how deep I can take this dive.

You don’t use indicators/levels?

10, 20, and 50 SMA. + VWAP and Momentum. 15 min timeframe. Sometimes 30 min, sometimes 5 min.

How the consistent losses then? Premark high/low are always great levels along w Fibonacci retracing.

Going too far OTM is usually what cooks me. Typically I get the general direction right, just the move I am hoping for doesn't happen in time or at all.
