I've a question for experienced traders for shorting strategy

Hi,

I've been day trading ES for three years now. First three years were filled with pain and struggle. However, for the past 5 months, i've been doing really well!

However, today, i kept shorting the market and it didn't give me even little bit of pull back. And i've made this mistake in the past countless times and yet, i still keep doing it. For those of you, the experienced trader, what do you look for shorting?

I'm sitting at park bench smoking cigarette feeling numb

On Tuesday, i received 36K payout on my five pro plus accounts and paid off a big debt of mine. However, today i was up 8K for each account, totaling 40K. And then greed took over, i wanted to get to 12K each account and made a few bad trades with size and 40K gain is gone and plus, all my five account is blown. Just, wow. Really don't know what to say. It's beyond my comprehension, why i didn't take the 40K gain and stop trading. Instead, i totally lost control to my greed and now lost everything. Just feeling numb and speechless 😔.

Hi,

I've 5 proplus accounts and made 2k on each account today and when i checked my drawdown level in tradovate, i found the amounts in the picture. Did they give me 10K drawdown instead of 4.5K? Because it says auto liq level -$10,000, can someone clarify this?

Hi,

I've TpT pro plus account and Sierra Chart is my main trading platform. TpT pro plus account is CQG based. The issue is that i don't want to use tradovate to execute my trades, i want to use Sierra Chart. So, i'm planning on using tradecopia. My question is can i use my Apex account as leader and TpT account as follower and trade from my main trading platform which is Sierra Chart? Is it okay with TpT rules? I want to make sure because i don't want to risk my pro plus account. Thanks.
