Morning.

Just received my recent payout—$389 landed in the account. I'm not sitting on it though. Every dollar is going straight into stock futures trading.

Here's why I'm not casual about this: I've been down the road of throwing money at whatever's hot. Spoiler alert—that approach doesn't work. You bleed money and learn expensive lessons.

This time feels different because I've actually got a plan. Three distinct trading setups on my radar. Each one has clean risk-to-reward mechanics. Each one has a clear stop-loss level where I cut if it moves against me.

That's the whole edge, honestly. Not picking winners based on hype. It's about positions where the math works—where you're risking X to make 2X or 3X. And knowing exactly when to bail if you're wrong.

Small account, disciplined execution. That's how you grow it.
