The record
- January 2026
I was not trading futures yet.
- March 2026
I bought the first prop firm evaluation on record on March 2. I made 4 attempts that month, and I did not know what I was doing yet.
- April 2026
I made 5 attempts. I passed my first evaluation.
- May 2026
I made 7 attempts. My first funded account on record was activated on May 25.
- Early June 2026
My first trading tool, a Python app for testing NQ strategies, dates to early June. I called it Carryer and saved version 20 on June 14.
- June 2026
I made 9 attempts. June ended as a losing month.
- July 3, 2026
I built a replay simulator that mimics prop firm evaluations.
- July 5, 2026
The simulator's first public website went live.
- July 9, 2026
I put the simulator on hold as a paid product and kept it as my own practice tool. The site stayed up as a waitlist.

I posted my first public trade receipt on X. It was a losing day.

I lost one of those three funded accounts. Its last logged trade was on July 20.

I made 4 attempts. July ended as a losing month.
- August 7, 2026
I started building a second Carryer product, a trading psychology web app. It became Psyke.
- August 12, 2026
I made my last 2 evaluation purchases on record. Both accounts were lost by August 31.

That made 31 evaluation attempts at 4 prop firms in a little over five months.
- September 8 to 9, 2026
Paid plans and live billing launched. The product was still called Carryer.
- September 10, 2026
I started a public small-account challenge on X, with my own money on one micro contract, posted as a numbered day-by-day series. The product got its first sign-up from Discord the same day.
- September 21, 2026
Carryer was renamed Psyke. For about an hour that day, it was called Syke.
- September 22, 2026
Psyke went live end to end at psyke.trade.
- As of September 25, 2026
29 of my 31 evaluation attempts had ended in blown accounts. Two funded accounts were still active.

Psyke expanded beyond X. Instagram and TikTok were planned on September 26, the accounts opened on September 28, and the first posts went up on September 29.
- September 2026
September was my first profitable trading month.
Who builds Psyke
I trade futures and I build Psyke. This page is my record from January to September 2026, taken from my own records. It has dates and counts. It has no dollar amounts in it.
Where Psyke started
I started building the app that became Psyke on August 7, 2026. June and July had already ended as losing months, and August would too. By September 25, 29 of my 31 evaluation attempts had ended in blown accounts.
What Psyke is
Psyke is a trading psychology journal for prop firm futures traders. You write your own rules and log each session against them in about two minutes. Psyke names the habit that keeps you breaking them: the revenge trade after a loss, sizing up to win it back, moving your stop.
What Psyke never does
Psyke is not a course and not a signal service. It never says what to trade or how big. It has no mood quiz, and it does not connect to your broker.
How to reach Psyke
Email hello@psyke.trade. Psyke is @psyketrade on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.
