CALDEIRÃO DE BOLSA

Esse trade foi um grande maluco se assim se pode dizer, se começou a perder dinheiro devia era ter mudado a sua estratégia para uma com menor agressividade e assim menos arriscada.

É como uma pessoa ir ao casino, aposta na roleta, perde tudo, mas acredita que consegue ganhar, entao volta a apostar e depois ao fim de algum tempo o dinheiro foi-se todo...

Boas. Quando li este post num forum estrangeiro, pensei que o autor estava no gozo, mas depois li o seguimento do post e penso que ele estava mesmo a falar a sério. Isto é mesmo aquilo que não se deve fazer. O título do post é :

"Is my career over?"

I started with $30,000 account. I made $3000 in my first month. I made another $2000 up until the last day of my second month. So I was up $5000 after two months. On the last day of my second month I lost $13,000. That same week I lost $3000, $3000, $2000, and $4000. Account was then at like $10,000. I took it easy for another month and broought the $10,000 up to $14,000. Then I lost the entire $14,000 over the next two weeks. I refunded my account with $10,000 and right now my balance is at $7000. It's been some ride and I only have about $10,000 more to fund my account with before I'll have to call it quits.

I've been trading the 30-year US Treasury Bond this entire time. I see that what has led to my downfall is trading too big size. I was trading 40 lots.

Given my experience, is it true that no prop futures firm would ever want to hire someone like me?

Let me know what you think. Thanks
