This channel is a public journal of my journey as a trader.

Over the past few years, I've spent thousands of hours studying the markets, testing ideas, making mistakes, and improving my trading process. Recently, I successfully passed a $100,000 proprietary trading challenge — an important milestone, but only the beginning.

My long-term goal is simple: become a professional capital manager with a transparent and disciplined track record.

This channel is not about signals or promises of quick profits.

Instead, I'll share:
• trading results and monthly performance;
• lessons learned from winning and losing trades;
• books and ideas that help me improve;
• my approach to risk management and continuous learning.

I'm building this channel as a long-term record of my work.

Welcome👋

Three Weeks Without a Trade — And That’s Okay

It’s been three weeks since I launched Personal Edge, and during that time I haven’t taken a single trade on my personal account.

I wanted to briefly explain why.
I don’t have a goal of forcing a trade every day, every week. My goal is to enter only when there is a clear edge and the key conditions align.

Over these three weeks, the market approached several interesting areas, but at the actual entry points, I didn’t have enough confluence to justify the risk.

In one situation, my limit order was triggered on only some of my accounts. On the others, price didn’t reach the entry and reversed immediately. I didn’t chase the move afterwards.

For me, the principle is simple:

No edge → No trade.

If the market gives me a high-quality setup, I’ll take it. If it doesn’t, I’ll wait.
Trading isn’t a competition to make the most trades.
The goal is to be there when the risk is actually worth taking.

Let’s keep watching↗️

Great way to close the month.
Last week I took a trade on the S&P 500 and managed to close the month in profit.
It was a relatively quiet month with fewer trading opportunities, but that’s part of the process.
Fewer trades. Higher win rate. Better selectivity.
No need to force trades when there is no edge. Just wait for the right opportunities and execute the plan.
Overall, I’m happy with how the month ended.
On to the next one. 🚀

August recap.
A solid month of progress, discipline, and staying focused on the process.
Now, onto September. ↗️
