We ve all heard the advice to "dogfood" your own app before launching. So, this weekend, I sat down and actually used my own tool, TemperTrade, to completely overhaul my trading plan for the week.
The result? Yesterday was my first day applying the new discipline, and I locked in $5k in profit.
But here is the reality check and the reason I built this app: Making the money is the easy part. Keeping it is the hard part.
In the past, a $5k Monday would usually be followed by a Tuesday where I get overconfident, trade too big, and give half of it back. My goal now isn't just "more profit," it's retention.
