First 10k month as a full time trader

Just crossed +$10.7k for October, which is my first 10k month since going full time. I’ve been trading the same setup pretty much every day this month. I trade gold during Asia and take the first newly created 15 minute IFVG I get. I target 1:1RR and move to breakeven once price gets about 68% of the way to TP. Average risk has been around $2,250 per trade and I’m sitting at a 75% win rate for the month. Today was another good one and pushed me over the 10k mark. I’ve had one proper losing day and one basically flat day, but other than that it’s been a really solid month. I think the main thing is I haven’t been messing around with the strategy or trying to change things after every result. I’ve just been taking the setup when it appears and managing it the same way. Still plenty of month left, but definitely a nice milestone to hit.

    How much is your total balance? Im thinking of selling my car and using 90k to trade gold. Nice setup you got going too.

    Congrats. Just setup an emergency back up account for those times you don’t hit and are stuck in an extended down turn.
