April Monthly Review 💹

It's been a tiring month.
I've gone through a number of trials and challenges that would make one think twice about growing up😭
Regardless, there is a lot of growth financially, physically and experience wise.

Mostly growth in experience 😭😭😭

Report

for @seki1

In my seki1 account, things have been slow.
To be exact, last week has to be my slowest week this year as I only posted thrice.
This is because of school stress, mild case of depression and a severe amount of laziness.

Depression and laziness is one of the most worst combination...

Another factor is the low curation I've been having.
Now I know we aren't meant to enter hive with the I'm here to make money mindset, but isn't that what we're all doing here?
The shocking change from a week of high average of curation where I get a payout of 5-12 $HBD to a low weekly payout was sudden.
A weekly payout of 3 $HBD was a serious hit mentally 😂😂

It's not enough to quit hive as a whole but it did make me pay attention to other things offline for a while.

It killed my weekly posting streak and monthly own too.
Hurt more since I was aiming for the monthly posting badge on April.

I just may get it by May :D

I wasn't actively saving anything on my @seki1 account now, despite the HBD funding for my forex journey and now another $10 HBD for 2 of @bitcoinman silver creations and now I need another $10 HBD for #splinterlands registration which has been put off for quite a long time.

I started forex last 2 weeks and as such 10$ worth of saving has already been cleared.

for @moneykeep

Nothing much has been going on here. Due to the slow month for seki1 the 20% weekly payout drips here have also been minimal.
On the 2nd week of April, it won the weekly eds draw on one of the #saturdaysavers posts though, this brought quite a healthy tip of HSBI and some nice upvotes 😊.
Still delegating hivepower to @eds.voter and read up on EDSM and EDS so now has a greater understanding of the token as a whole.
Would love to indulge in it but alas we're waiting for the funds...

Other Assets

This month, I officially started my trading journey.
As with all newbies in any endeavor, there are sure to be some mild mistakes.
My first one was with depositing in some brokers...
But alas I won't delve deeply in to it as it's not actually a loss on my part.
I'll optimistically call it a fixed deposit of funds... Fixed in the fact that I'm not sure when I'll be able to collect it back 😂😂

Regardless I delved fully into the world of foreign exchange and my eyes were open.
I managed to double my initial deposit of 10$ and withdraw that in 2 days of safe trading.
With my initial deposit already taken and funds secured incase of any accidents.

It was time to go for a bigger risk.
The big buy on gold as I and other traders with more years of experience as me had predicted.
Well i entered the trade, a beautiful entry for a buy and I had already started calculating my profits.

I knew it was risky, knew gold was volatile, knew the rebounds as it reached the support levels were going to be numerous but I knew it would break through, i predicted it would break through, i hoped it would breakthrough...
It didn't.

Well it was a steep descent from gold and just lime that $8 had flown away like a note in a windy park.

Well, I've decided to start small and grow my account from there.
Hence from next week I'll deposit 2-5 dollars and start the account growth from there, taking back my profits at the end of the week.
All those would be on a different post on Fridays.

That's all for my savings report this month.
Since it's the #saturdaysavers, I've layed emphasis on the Saturday aspect and would make all my posts to be on Saturday.
Any overflow of income or debit in any of the accounts for this month would be added to my May entry 😃
