1st Ever Payout, on an Absolute Gift of a Trade!
Merry Christmas to me! After being down on the day, I got into this trade, and it looked like it had the potential to get my account to the payout mark. Almost stopped me out right toward the beginning, and I actually lost 2 of my 10 contracts at the stop loss line before it retraced. It started looking really good, but with only 8 contracts left, I had to move my profit target lower if I still wanted to get my account to a payout today. I did so, but then noticed that price was going to have to cross the $70 round number resistance line to get to my profit target... a bit sketchy, but with some tense patience... It did! It bounced off of my profit target twice in 10 minutes, and I got filled on the second bounce. Another second at my stop loss line probably would have closed out this entire trade at a loss. Instead, it's one of my biggest wins ever. So very thankful to God for how this trade worked out, how trading on the whole is working out, and for continued growth at this. 🙏 I know I'm still a noob, with a lot of room to grow, so a big thank you to everyone who's been making helpful posts, and giving encouragement along the way, with the biggest thank you by far to you, @Kyle Henris! Happy Holidays everybody!
