Great month, but still hunting that elusive 100k but I'm more than happy to pump out these current numbers. Extremely blessed to be in this position and I don't take any of it for granted. Hard work will always be rewarded and the real will always prevail. 🍻

They are going to talk about Summer 2025 trading for years to come. What a run for small caps. 🔥

Something that is unspoken of but very real in trading is taking a step back from others when it’s best for you.
I was in a couple great pods a few years ago (with amazing traders who are still doing very well). But it got to the point where my brain just wasn’t built for it. The callouts from others and commentary on your own ideas was actually HURTING me. The reason for it was it would make me second guess and get scatter brained. I realized it for a while but thought it was just something I would shake off. I told myself it was best to be in a pod with others because that is what was preached on fintwit.
But eventually I took a step back and just went solo and everything changed for me. No hesitation, no “need to perform”, no scatter brain. Just me and the charts. Everything changed for me and my pnl went extremely parabolic. The vision was so clear as there were no distractions.
I do think having a pod is great for other reasons and that’s why I reach out to like minded traders vs DM now to talk about general trading stuff. Having people to discuss the day to day life of a trader is far more valuable to me. Sure I wish I still had that with more traders via discord and maybe I will again one day.
But I think that is truly the value add from pods (for me & maybe others who don’t realize it yet). Compared to just intraday idea generation. Which is also good if that is how your mind works.. but if yours isn’t wired that way, then don’t be afraid to take a step back.
