Hi everyone, I’m a late 30s Millennial looking to use day trading to better my living situation in this world. 2020 was an eye opening year as I personally started my journey in realizing that a lot of things on this planet is rigged. (These are just my opinions)… (Federal Reserve, Sports, Going to college and taking out loads of money that puts you at a huge disadvantage (debt) all the while the prices of everything skyrockets due to their nonstop money printing…. A lot of millennials and Gen Z share similar frustrations as we never seemingly had a chance despite following the blueprint set forth from society.... That said, I’d like use trading as a skill to earn some money. So if the name of the game is to go where the big money goes- I'll be hellbent to figure out how and hopefully snatch some crumbs along the way to improve life for myself, family and friends. So far- I'm understanding the concepts really well but still finding it very challenging to understand the story that the charts are telling as I've never been a math or science person. Would really appreciate some tips. Thanks and God Bless.

As the year winds down and the holidays roll in, this is your reminder that trading is only one part of a well lived life. The charts will still be there. The market will open again. But this moment with family and friends does not come back. Take time during the next 2 weeks to reflect on the year. The wins that built confidence. The losses that built wisdom. Every lesson mattered. Every rep counted. Nothing was wasted. This is the season to slow down, step away from the noise, and appreciate how far you’ve come. Rest is not quitting. Stepping back is not falling behind. It is how you recharge the mind and sharpen the edge. When the new year arrives, you will come back clearer, calmer, and more focused. Armed with experience. Grounded in discipline. Ready to apply everything this year taught you. 🚀 Enjoy the holidays. Be present with the people who matter most. Then return next year with intention, patience, and quiet confidence. The next chapter is yours to write. — Coach Stephen

Today is a big day for me. I finally passed my first Apex eval for a 50K account. I know I still have a long way to go and it's been quite a steep learning curve, but I feel so good that I hit this milestone. For my fellow beginners....don't give up! You can do this! I am trying to decide if I should start working on building up the pay account, or try for another evaluation account pass. Thoughts from the community?
