트레이딩 실력 어떻게 늘리나요? 😭

Brother, I'm going to be direct because you asked for it.

You've been trading since 2023. You've blown multiple accounts. You admit to revenge trading. You say you have "no fucking clue how to read charts" after 3 years.

And you're stressing over $12 swings on a $100 account.

Stop. Step back. Look at the bigger picture.

You don't have a strategy problem. You have a timeline problem. You're expecting results that take 6-7 years of serious screen time — and you're trying to force them in year 3 on a micro account.

And on top of that — you chose gold. Gold right now is an absolute beast. It's moving $30-50 in a single session like it's nothing. Institutional money is throwing it around and you're trying to ride that wave with a $100 micro account and revenge trading habits? Gold will eat you alive. It doesn't care about your support levels or your RSI. It will spike through your stop, reverse, hit your take profit level without you in the trade, and do it all in 15 minutes. This instrument at this volatility level destroys experienced traders with proper risk management — let alone a $100 account with no clear edge.

Here's the uncomfortable truth: demo profitability means almost nothing. One profitable month on gold means nothing. The moment real money hits the screen, you became a different trader. That's not a flaw — that's human psychology. And it doesn't go away with more indicators or a better RR ratio.

Three things I'd do if I were you:

Stop trading real money right now. You're not ready and $100 isn't teaching you anything except bad habits under stress.

Delete the concept of "overbought/oversold" from your brain. Price doesn't care about RSI. Trade what price is doing, not what an indicator says it should do.

Accept that this is a 5-7 year journey minimum. Not 3. Not 2. You're not behind — you're just early in the process and expecting to be at the finish line.

The guys who "grew small accounts to thousands" either got lucky once and never showed you the blown accounts after, or they have 5-10 years of experience behind that screenshot.

Stop comparing. Start journaling. And give yourself time.

All these trades in one day
You should learn strategy and develop ur psychology and risk management

Did you think a month of paper trading would make you into a profitable trader

I started in 2021, didn’t see a winning consistency until feb 2026, yes, I still have red days, but my red days don't blow up my account anymore like before, and my winning days almost always recoup my loss the previous days.

I had +$10K days, also -$20K days before, but those days were bad memories.

I've lost over $200K in total, but that's OK, it is a deferred loss that I use later to reduce my taxable profit if I continue what I'm doing now

For starters your positionsre too low, and stop loss/liquidity also too low

You need to journal your trades, its good that you are trying with a small account and sticking to only one security asset class. Esentially you want to know why you took that trade, what exactly was the risk i.e would your stop loss would get hit if so why are you taking that trade. Is you reward or target is in co-relation with your risk/stop loss, why did you think that the relative target could be achieved, what was your entire thought process during that particular trade, what did you feel once you have taken the trade what did you feel when it moved in your direction, what did you feel when it did the opposite, did your stoploss got hit or did you exit on your own accord if so why, did it reach your target or did you exit before the price reached your intended target if so why. Also, the most important one what was your reasoning/logic behind you taking that trade. Once you journal everything in relation to that trade you will have more information that you can control, try to record/write them down as soon as you are done with a single trade as your learning this should be your approach. Later on you may want to explore strategies or finding an edge when you have more information from your journal on what was it that you were doing wrong or was going wrong, it's a self discovery process you have to put in the effort.

A 2x2 matrix with time on x-axis & risk on y-axis. Discern the difference between trading/investing for time, and trading/gambling on risk.

That's the big picture realization for what appears to be your trading style. Perhaps successful trading isn't something you'll achieve in a short time span, however defined.

Enjoy gambling if it's under control. Some get good with practice. If it wrecks your life, stop. Let a professional manage wealth growth.

Also, the selective reinforcement of occasional wins is addictive, leads you to believe you've "got it" and a full port trade blows your recent work.

Not helping, no control over urges (revenge trading as you described). Is your profile flag spilling over into trading? Few can reconcile NSFW with emotionless trading.

Sorry for your struggle, hope you figure it out.

Add open price to your charts

One thing I learned about the market is it's driven by market movers. It's inconsistent, unpredictable & manipulated.

Market movers knows where people's stop loss and entries are. Your edge as a trader is to determine which direction does the market movers want it to head. What are those? Fundamentals and understanding price action.

My edge as a trader is to trade ONCE a day. That trade is well planned, watch pre-market movement direction, confirm it with first NYSE open 5 minute candle and dive with the price action. I don't trade on Fridays and high impact news. My top google search is "stock market today", to see where is the sentiment at.

Show us a couple of your trades and your reasoning behind your entry, TP, and SL. If you're blindly taking trades, then I think you still need more screen time and education. Keep at it, put in the hours, and don't give up.

0.30 lots an ur only making that? lol
