Up to this point I've been paper trading, which has been great. It's allowed me to be less reckless, more attuned to what works and what doesn't, and put certain practices in place, but I feel like I need to start putting some skin in the game while also getting accustomed to real orders with the broker, and practicing. Completed section II of Complete Penny Stock Course, along with the 30 day bootcamp, and Challenge Orientation + Homework. Admittedly, I still have a LOT of stuff left to study, but I feel like I've been making good and consistent progress. Complete transparency, I have >$80k in my Schwab account to start, however I'll be pretending as though I have $25k, risking no more than 1% per trade.
