Long time lurker, finally took action.

https://preview.redd.it/i2zny56hvrih1.png… Long time lurker of ssb, wsb, ect. Started trading a few weeks ago with a $500 account which is now nearing 1k, and mostly doing spy calls, with some other things thrown in (qqqm calls, NVidia, ect. ). Trying my best to make ok entries, and maximizing risk management. For my entry during scalps, I don't have any particular strat, but I try to wait for a notable downtrend, hoping to catch a v pattern. One of my issues though, is selling too early sometimes. For example, I bough a couple calls, right before that little rip from Nividia yesterday, where it shot from the dip into a $1.50+ little rip. I sold way too early, lost out on a couple hundred bucks, but still got out with like a $45 scalp. Also, I got a warning for GFV, since I'm kind of nooby still and didn't know about that, so I'm trying to be cautious there. Overall, I think I'm doing ok, could be doing better, just need to keep learning, keep my risk low and work on better entries and exits. Anyway's just wanted to share, and best of luck!

    You didn't miss out on a couple hundred bucks. You will earn that over time , what you could have made doesn't matter. What matters is what you made today. And that you keep it for tomorrow.
