An interesting case study: one trader banked a $1M gain today, yet remains underwater by over $5M when looking at the bigger picture across recent months. Current portfolio sits at $1.1M across 81 open trades. It's a striking reminder of how single winning days can mask longer-term drawdowns. Whether this reversal sticks or just a blip in the larger downtrend remains to be seen—but the position sizing and trade frequency definitely raise questions about risk management. Worth monitoring to see if this marks a real inflection point or another false bottom in the account's recovery arc.

Making a million a day or losing five million, the difference is truly incredible. These 81 positions must be gambling, right?

Made a million but still lost five million, how much must one be able to deceive oneself?

Earning a million in a day sounds great, but the hole from losing five million can't be filled... --- 81 positions open, this risk management is quite something, really. --- What does a single-day turnaround cover up? Long-term bleeding is the real problem. --- Is this rebound a bottom or just another fake-out? We need to keep watching. --- Having so many positions with such a small account size, how much experience do you have? --- The million earned and the five million lost are completely different matters. --- This kind of rebound can't explain the problem; you need to step out to make it count. --- Position sizing is indeed outrageous; it works but the risk is hidden too deep. --- Just proves why most traders end up dead on the over-leverage road.

This wave made 1 million but lost 5 million, like picking up a coin on the moon's surface without realizing half the rocket fuel leaked. The risk exposure of 81 positions is truly incredible.

A million-dollar victory cannot hide a five-million-dollar loss. This is the reality.

Earning a million a day, but losing five million in total, is this the daily routine of a trader? Haha
