⌛ Another day of no forced trade execution. Open deep liquidity play in case there's a "Black Swan"
Events I'm overly cautious on:
❗️ Futures Contract Rollover from Sep to Dec
❗️ CPI and PPI this week
❗️ FOMC rate decision next week
❗️ Bessent and administration a Wildcard

❗️ Futures Contract Rollover from Sep to Dec
❗️ CPI and PPI this week
❗️ FOMC rate decision next week
❗️ Bessent trying too hard

🎥 August YouTube earnings are in!
The Travel Vlog while Trading didn’t seem to resonate with the viewers. I’ll continue to release content that I enjoy.
💰 Estimated August YouTube earnings at $17.53 with 5.5K views and 116.5 Watch time (hours) for the month.
Thank you for supporting my journey!

Upgraded to a Dedicated Workstation - Unlimited use 24/7 at a Shared Coworking Space.
I previously had an Open Desk, which was good for 8 hours that renewed every 10 instance of use.
Let’s see if this will increase my productivity 💪

📈 Long Position
❗️This trade is losing its steam and the risk profile is worse with the Fed Chairman at Jackson Hole tomorrow. I will need to adjust the risk at Globex
