Plans for future trades and reflections on prop trading accounts
I'm collecting funded accounts now that I have consistency but they're all small so my plan is to fund large 400k account challenges with profits out of 10k accounts. I have a 10k swing account I got funded with Oct Friday the 13th - I'm trying to figure out what to do with it and I think that finding a short to hold against risk assets is probably the smartest/safest play. Assuming seasonality holds up, I'd anticipate a run up into dec. Near term we have possibly 14800 if it's a swift lift, or if the market goes more sideways, I'd expect to be hitting about 14600 in December. Those are launch points to build heavy and hard short positions. I hope I can find the setups - I've been having a hard time feeling connected to the funded accounts because they were small 10k challenges - I just ran 10k challenges until I could pass them in my sleep. I'll likely write a series about the psychology of the challenges as there are a few gotchas I personally found, especially the last 1%. I have one 10k challenge I'm running right now that hit 99% of profit target today lol. It's rediculous - it's $10 away from the target and it'll take me a couple days to pull my shit together and get that I bet :P If I switched accounts, I'd make money right away. It's so weird how the psychology plays out.
