From 13:30 to 18:00 — one green trade. In the evening, I started trading $ALPACA — it rose by 100%, and I was able to gather volatility well. In total: only 3 stop losses, the rest — break-even or in profit.
By the end of the day, the result was beautiful — +15$. I was already about to finish trading, but I noticed a rise. I decided to enter the last trade with half the leverage. Yes, the movements were good — up to 9%, but the volume was small, so it was easier psychologically.
Then there was an interesting moment — funding. I didn't pay much attention to it, and at the moment $ALPACA dropped by 20%, and I was already down -10$. What did I do? Of course, I averaged down and added another half leverage. The drawdown reached -31$, I sat in the trade for almost 3 hours, thinking: "Why didn't you close at a loss of 7$?" During that time, I could have recovered the loss — the opportunity was there.
I am only glad about one thing — how cool it is to scalp. Imagine: in a week I made almost +70% on the deposit. Yes, then I lost it, but those are questions only for me. Even with little experience in scalping, with a lot of mistakes — I consistently make 5–15% a day. Add cashback and discipline to this, and everyone will see results.
In the end, the day closed with a loss of -1.22$ — almost all recovered.
