Show us the result, it's been a month already. It's interesting to see, since the goal is the same, to increase the account by 1,000 times. I couldn't do it because of discipline.
And if you look closely, maybe discipline has nothing to do with it?
What is it? I've traded, I know. Hundreds of trades, four months of daily trading. All trades with no drawdowns or overdrafts. You know, give me a reason.

You can't have no drawdown at all.
There is no drawdown at all.
I agree. I used to go against me by a few pips. But you understand, when you work with 200-500% lot from the deposit, you have just opened a deal and spread decreased the account equity by 10% on GBPUSD and EURUSD. The rate went against the deal just by 5 points and you are losing 10-15% of your money to that 10%. If you consider it a drawdown, it happened. I just meant the drawdowns in tens and hundreds of points. It doesn't work with such working lots.
I agree. Sometimes the price went against me by several points.

"I couldn't do it because of discipline". What situation are you describing with these words? What are you doing at this time?

A system has been calculated for this idea. Breaking the system is what I meant by the word discipline. There can be a variety of reasons for this. One can get over-played, do something stupid, take a loss and start trying to win it back. Maybe psychologically one cannot accept losses and exit the trade. One has to act on the automatic. While you procrastinate and hope, there is no account. It's not my first time trying to get my account up and running. And I don't think it'll be my last. It's just that a year is too long to follow the system accurately and keep yourself in check. And with all those overpriced lots, emotions run high.
... And with such inflated lots, emotions run high.
Set the lots in proportion to your emotions).
