Whenever i give back my gains, it really bothers me

Hi, today i traded well and made a decent profit, however, i gave back almost half of my gain. It was a green day but the fact that i gave back some of my gain is really pissing me off right now and i can feel the anger building in me.

How do you manage your emotion when you give back your gains by placing more trades due to greed?

So frustrating

During the overnight session yesterday, i had short bias and kept shorting but all night long, longs kept holding support and reversing price. And then this shit dumps like crazy today. This angers me so much.

When i short higher the price keeps going higher or just keeps holding the mini support that formed right beneath the resistance where i shorted and blow through resistance, when i short as price falls, i'm met with pullback buying. This is so frustrating.

When i long at resistance, all of a sudden the shorts become persistent and keeps grinding down or worse sudden flash down. Is trading gods playing with me a sick joke? I had so much success in first 5 months of this year but all of a sudden, i can't get a single win for god sake.

TpT banned me this morning for spoofing which is totally false

Hey guys, TpT sent me an email today saying i spoofed and that my account is closed. It's 100% false. They also say that i've been warned previously for my behavior but i've never been warned. I've had huge payouts in the past 5 months with them and i think that's the main reason.

They definitely ban you if you're profitable. I'm little sad because taking huge payouts with TpT was nice but on the other hand, i feel relieved for some reason. Just be aware that this is how they conduct their business if you're profitable but not that consistent.

I've a question for experienced traders for shorting strategy

Hi,

I've been day trading ES for three years now. First three years were filled with pain and struggle. However, for the past 5 months, i've been doing really well!

However, today, i kept shorting the market and it didn't give me even little bit of pull back. And i've made this mistake in the past countless times and yet, i still keep doing it. For those of you, the experienced trader, what do you look for shorting?

I'm sitting at park bench smoking cigarette feeling numb

On Tuesday, i received 36K payout on my five pro plus accounts and paid off a big debt of mine. However, today i was up 8K for each account, totaling 40K. And then greed took over, i wanted to get to 12K each account and made a few bad trades with size and 40K gain is gone and plus, all my five account is blown. Just, wow. Really don't know what to say. It's beyond my comprehension, why i didn't take the 40K gain and stop trading. Instead, i totally lost control to my greed and now lost everything. Just feeling numb and speechless 😔.

Hi,

I've 5 proplus accounts and made 2k on each account today and when i checked my drawdown level in tradovate, i found the amounts in the picture. Did they give me 10K drawdown instead of 4.5K? Because it says auto liq level -$10,000, can someone clarify this?

Hi,

I've TpT pro plus account and Sierra Chart is my main trading platform. TpT pro plus account is CQG based. The issue is that i don't want to use tradovate to execute my trades, i want to use Sierra Chart. So, i'm planning on using tradecopia. My question is can i use my Apex account as leader and TpT account as follower and trade from my main trading platform which is Sierra Chart? Is it okay with TpT rules? I want to make sure because i don't want to risk my pro plus account. Thanks.
