Katas ng crypto
Mukhang labasan na ng mga kinita.
Technically hindi ko pa nawiwithdraw, since withdrawal has always been the painful part especially since you need to go through verification stages, when you’ve changed mobile numbers, etc. Kumbaga pinauna munang gastos but ultimately the funds have to be coming from profits.
Was able to buy the adjacent house that’s beside the road. Always a fan of real estates over cars, hence people won’t really see me buying cars and I don’t know how to drive given my poor sense of direction.
Nanggaling ako sa hirap, tumira sa sira-sirang apartment, hindi makabayad ng renta. I’ve never really ashamed to talk about my beginnings which are all based on facts no matter how embarassing these memories get.
I appreciate traders posting their brand new cars and all those “katas” moments. Why? Because it inspires me. It does not make me jealous. It brings me back to days when I’m “hungry” as a trader to win big. Posts such as traders purchasing cars and houses motivate me and never my source of skepticism. I believe them. I think sarili mo lang niloloko mo kung hindi totoo. Because those hundreds of people who will like your posts don’t even know you and don’t feed you. I don’t doubt people at all when it comes to success. My simplest and innocent mind wants to believe that people post not to brag but to really be proud of what they have done. If it feels good for you and it pushes you further, why not?
My lifestyle as a trader didn’t change. I don’t vie for luxury brands just for the sake of it. I always go for quality regardless of price tags. So if it happens to be branded but of good quality, then why not? I could say my lifestyle still gears towards simplicity and minimalism. I really don’t need to own so many things.
Did you know that I’ve been trading for years using my phone? While expensive trading stations really look nice, I don’t need it and it’s my personal preference. Wala naman sa setup ng trading workstation ‘yan, nasa galing ‘yan ng trader at iba-iba tayo ng diskarte.
I’m also happy to share my success with my immediate family. I may not have kids at this point in my life but in the future I know my children would be another source of inspiration to trade really, really well. Bilib ako at mataas paghanga ko sa mga traders who are married and have kids to raise. Iba na kasi ang level ng gastos niyo haha.
In 2017, I posted set of keys, which was my “katas ng forex.” So you get the idea – nilalabas ko profits and invest in tangible assets. Yes. Kapag kasi kaya mo na magpaikot ng pera sa trading, kaya mo na ilabas at ilagay sa ibang assets ang kinita mo.
Let me share to you another strategy employed by a fellow trader friend. You don’t also need to win big time all the time. What she does, she got a pre-selling condo, takes some of her trading profits and pays off monthly amortization. Just make sure during “winter months” in trading, you have other sources of income.
Trading is all about hardwork, relentless backtesting and continuous learning. I tend now to focus on my ultra-specialized niche, which keeps me stress-free and risk:reward higher.
There are wins and losses.
Trading is tough enough.
Tonight we celebrate a win and it makes me happy.
Hope you are happy too. Keep going, trader!!
