Daily transparent posting has become a part of my process.
I used to chase engagement and followers to establish my social media brand.
However, I am more than happy to be a profitable trader over a successful content creator.
I don't sell anything! (other than earning a bit when you watch my YouTube videos).
Thank you to those who still follow the journey.

💰 YTD $18,793.45
❗️ Profit is not keeping up with fixed expenses, but as long I'm positive then it's a win. This comes with the territory of variable income - hence why it's so important to have at least 1 year cash runway. (I'm aiming for 2)

⌛ Being comfortable with not executing a trade daily has been my biggest growth over the years
