🧵 I Traded Every Day for 30 Days — Here’s What Actually Worked

Let’s be real — most of us think we want to day trade… until we actually try it.

I challenged myself: 30 straight days of trading, no breaks, no excuses. I logged everything — wins, losses, emotions, setups, results.

Here’s what I found:

⸻

🔹 1. 80% of My Gains Came From 20% of My Trades

You’ve heard of the Pareto Principle, right? It’s real.

Most trades were breakeven or tiny losses. But a few high-conviction trades — usually ones I was most patient with — made the difference.

🧠 Lesson: Quality beats quantity. Don’t force trades.

⸻

🔹 2. My Best Trades Happened After I Did Nothing

Ironically, the more I waited and watched, the better I did.

When I sat on my hands and waited for clear setups — not FOMO — I entered with more confidence, and it showed in my PnL.

🧠 Lesson: Sitting out is a strategy.

⸻

🔹 3. Journaling Was a Game-Changer

Every night, I reviewed my trades — not just the numbers, but why I took them.

Patterns emerged: I chased after losses. I over-leveraged when confident. I hesitated after drawdowns.

🧠 Lesson: Track your trades. You can’t fix what you don’t notice.

⸻

🔹 4. Simplicity > Complexity

At first, I overloaded my charts with indicators. RSI, MACD, EMAs, volume profiles…

Eventually, I stripped it all down to price action and 2-3 core tools. My clarity — and my results — improved fast.

🧠 Lesson: Master a few tools. You don’t need 10.

✅ What Actually Worked:

• Fewer, higher-conviction trades

• Watching key levels and price action

• Daily journaling

• Knowing when not to trade

💬 If you’re struggling with consistency, forget trading more. Start trading smarter.
