Thats a good story and so many truths in it. It does come down to the simple things in life but as always easier said than done but a great printout nonetheless. On the trading in August though I have to say I do still trade and see opportunities ...

Holding out is where I want to get to, as this will increase the profitability with less stress. The last few weeks have been a lot better from a relaxed mindset point of view as I have traded less and had good results. Thanks for your post

Yes my plans are to build a growing trading account that will contribute to paying my mortgage earlier than it has to run to help retire earlier and to spend more time with family. If it went really well I would like to be able to help others in ...
