Since I've opened it anyway and have nothing better to do

let's take on the slippage-and-balance challenge!
120U futures challenge to double the account, Day 1.

Brothers, let's see whether 120U can be turned into 240U.

It's not much money, but don't laugh—I really will stare at the balance and feel awful for half a day if I lose a dozen or so bucks 😂

I'll also be trading live, so everyone can see whether I make or lose money. I'll make this post first to keep a record, and hopefully I'll still have the nerve to come back and update it in a couple of days.

So here's a reminder to myself: wait when there's no opportunity, accept the stop-loss when it hits, and don't top up temporarily just to pretend I didn't lose.

Whatever positions I open later, why I enter, and how much I make or lose will all be updated here. For today, I'm making this post first—let's see how far this 120U can go.

Anyone else doing this with a small starting capital? Leave your starting amount in the comments.
