When I first started trading, I always aspired to buy big contracts. Especially Tesla. My eyes would get so big, imagining how much money I'd make trading Tesla. I got to that point and realized I really don't like Tesla, it's so volatile. I found SPX and really liked the contract size, which landed me to trading NDX. Now I love me some NDX. The contracts can be expensive at times for 0DTE, but they're worth it. Last month, I strived to make 1000/day with a 10,000 investment. I made about 25,000 last month. But I had to pay off 20,000 of debt and pay 5000 in taxes. So I restarted my account at 2000 a contract. Through this, I realized that it's quality over quantity. I aspired to make 100/day and have exceeded that goal. Today I made 800 off of a 3000 dollar contract. 22% is exceptional, because my goal is really make 5% a day. I also learned that I don't have to trade everyday, I can take breaks. I can rest. Last week, I only traded 2-3 days out of the week but had a 100% green/gain rate. Today (Wednesday) is the only day I traded and I exceeded my goal. I don't have to stress over bad contracts because I don't have to put myself into one. Last month was a great month.
