NQ Futures · Public trading journal

Lorenzo
Trades

Trading the journey. Not selling the dream.

I’m documenting my journey as an NQ futures trader — the wins, losses, funded accounts, payouts, mistakes and everything I learn along the way.

The Journey

A public trading journal — green days and red days

Every session gets documented the same way: the thesis I came in with, the trades I actually took, and what I got wrong. Losing days and mistakes stay published, because they are the part of the process most traders hide.

Long-form recaps live on YouTube. Written entries live in the journal.

About Lorenzo

The Trader Behind the Journey

Lorenzo, an NQ futures trader, smiling in front of his multi-monitor trading desk showing live futures charts

I’m Lorenzo.

I’m an NQ futures trader documenting what it actually takes for me to become a consistently profitable trader.

This isn’t a highlight reel. I’m documenting the green days, red days, funded accounts, blown accounts, payouts, mistakes, psychology and lessons that come with the process.

I’m not here to sell the dream or pretend I’ve already reached the destination.

This is documentation, not perfection.

The Numbers
