My Trading Journey
Honest lessons from my first two years in the markets.
The $100K Peak.
In my first year, I grew an account to roughly $100,000 (about ₹1 crore). It felt like proof that I had it figured out. I hadn’t.
Losing It All.
I had no real discipline, no risk plan and not enough knowledge. I lost the entire account. It was the most expensive lesson of my life, and the most valuable.
The Rebuild.
I went back to learning: ICT concepts, strict risk rules, patience and journaling. Today I trade with a plan, not with emotion.
My Numbers, Honestly
- Not a highlight reel. These are the real markers of my journey so far.
- 2+ Years – Actively trading the markets.
- Peak account in my first year. I lost it, and learned more than any win taught me.

$ 100K
Peak account in my first year. I lost it all, and learned more from that than from any win.
What Losing Taught Me”
Discipline. Risk management. Patience. Continuous learning. Four things I didn’t have in year one, and won’t trade without now.
How I Trade Now
A plan before every trade. No plan, no trade.

Risk Management
Protect the account first. Profit comes second. I learned this the hard way, so every trade now has a defined risk before I enter.
