Starting from December 30th, the "100U for 1000U" challenge begins. I calculated that with a daily compound interest of 10%, it is possible to reach 10,000 in 49 days. Using 10 days to double the capital, but I officially finished yesterday.
I have always loved long positions, but during a sharp market rise, I opened short positions and did not set a stop-loss. Why didn't I set a stop-loss? I was under the illusion that I could turn it around.
Today, January 15, 2026, I am starting the challenge again. This is the first day; I opened only two trades: one on Ethereum — short, profit of 80 points; one long — unknown, but profit around 10 points. All trades are strictly with small stop-losses. Going forward, I will categorically not hold positions without a stop-loss. I will definitely set a stop-loss when opening. If I have three consecutive losing trades — I will not trade anymore for that day!
These are strict rules, and they must be followed. Remember!
Stick to your trading system, work like a machine!
