I want to sincerely apologize for the past two days of trading and for the losses that followed.
The last two days have been horrible and seeing almost the entire account wiped out is something that genuinely hurts. Not just because of the money but because I know there are real people behind those accounts who trusted me.
I let things get completely out of control. The past few weeks have been extremely frustrating and with everything going on in my personal life on top of difficult and unpredictable markets, my mindset slowly got worse. But I don't want to hide behind any of that. Those are circumstances, not excuses. I made the decisions, and I take full responsibility for them.
I overtraded. I forced setups that I should never have taken. I increased the lot sizes when I should have been doing the exact opposite. I became emotional, frustrated and impatient and eventually my emotions took over my trading.
And honestly, I am extremely disappointed in myself.
This is not how I want to trade. This is not what I built this signal for. And most importantly, this is not what I ever wanted to happen to the people who trusted me.
Because of what happened, I will most likely stop trading this account. I need to step back and accept what happened instead of trying to chase the losses or pretend everything is fine.
I feel terrible knowing that people followed me and lost money because of decisions I made. I can’t change the last two days, but I can be honest about them and take responsibility for them.
I am truly, genuinely sorry. I failed to manage my own emotions and risk the way I should have, and there is no excuse for that.
