I’VE BEEN QUIET ON BLOSSOM FOR A WHILE… BUT TODAY, I HAD TO COME BACK AND SHARE THIS ONE. It feels good to finally make a trading post here again. I’ve been away from Blossom for some time, and life has taken me through a lot of things recently. There were moments when trading and social media simply weren’t my priority. But today was one of those days in the market that made me sit back, look at the results, and say… Okay, I have to share this one. 😂 Today, we were live on Zoom with the trading community, studying the market, watching our setups, managing positions, and letting the market do what it was going to do. And the numbers today were definitely worth celebrating. $NVDA – +$103,000 $AVGO – +$62,500 $INTC – +$21,000 That’s $186,500 in combined open profit shown across these positions. I’m not going to lie, I’m proud of it. After all the years of studying the market, experiencing winning days, losing days, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, and constantly working on becoming a better trader, moments like this feel good. So yes, today I’m going to enjoy the moment and show off a little. 😂 But there is something VERY IMPORTANT I want everyone, especially beginners, to understand when looking at a screenshot like this. This is something I always remind people about, especially when I post an options signal here on Blossom: the contracts I show are based on my own account size, my experience, my capital, and the amount of risk I’m personally comfortable taking. Please don’t see someone else’s position size and turn it into a competition. Trading is not about proving who can put the most money into one trade. It’s about learning how to make decisions with the capital you have. One of the biggest mistakes beginners make is seeing a trader post a large winning position and immediately thinking, “I need to do that too.” No. You need to build your own journey. Start where you are. Learn the fundamentals. Understand calls and puts. Learn how strike prices work. Understand expiration, implied volatility, the Greeks, support and resistance, market structure, entries, exits, position sizing and risk management. And most importantly, learn how to take a loss without allowing one trade to destroy your account. Because nobody posts a screenshot saying: “Today I lost $20,000.” Everybody wants to show the green days. But the market doesn’t care about your Instagram, your Blossom profile, your ego, or how badly you want to make money. The market will humble you very quickly if you don’t respect risk. That is why I always tell the people I teach: Don’t chase the size. Chase the knowledge. The money can come later. The skill comes first. Today’s results are exciting, but the part I’m most proud of is being able to sit down with the community on Zoom and actually break down what we’re seeing in the market together. Because my goal has never been to simply post a winning trade and say, “Look what I made.” I want people to understand why a trade was taken, what we were looking for before entering, what could invalidate the setup, how to manage the position, and when it makes sense to walk away. That knowledge is worth far more than copying somebody else’s contracts. And to everyone who is currently learning options, thinking about getting started, or sitting on the sidelines because you’re afraid you don’t know enough yet: Take your time. You don’t have to become a great trader overnight. You don’t have to turn $1,000 into $10,000 in a week. You don’t have to catch every move. You don’t have to trade every day. And you definitely don’t have to compare your beginning to somebody else’s chapter 10. Learn. Practice. Make mistakes. Study those mistakes. Improve. Repeat. There will be days when everything seems to work. There will also be days when nothing goes according to plan. That is trading. What separates a trader over the long run isn’t one incredible green day. It’s the discipline to keep showing up, manage risk, protect capital, and continue learning even after the market teaches you a difficult lesson. I’ve had my own difficult days. I’ve had moments where I questioned myself. I’ve had setbacks that made me step away and rethink things. But every time I came back, I came back with more experience. Today was another reminder of why I started this journey in the first place. Not just for the money. But for the freedom, the knowledge, the challenge, and the ability to sit down with people who genuinely want to learn and help them understand a market that can feel extremely complicated when you’re first starting. So yes… Today was a GOOD day. We made these gains while working together during our Zoom live session with the trading community, and I’m genuinely proud of what we accomplished. But tomorrow is a new trading day. We start again. No chasing. No revenge trading. No emotional decisions. No trying to force the market to give us something. Just preparation, patience, discipline and execution. And to everyone who has been following my journey here on Blossom even while I’ve been quiet: Thank you. It feels good to be back. Sometimes life forces you to step away from the things you love. Sometimes you need time to heal, regroup, and find yourself again. And sometimes you come back and realize that the journey you thought had stopped was simply waiting for you to continue. I’m back. Still learning. Still trading. Still teaching. Still pushing forward. One setup at a time. One lesson at a time. One day at a time. And today… we definitely gave ourselves something to smile about. 😂😂😂 Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Options involve significant risk and are not suitable for every investor. Always consider your own financial situation, experience, and risk tolerance before trading.
