DislikedThanks guys.
The toughest part of all this is pounding into my hard head that trading is so vastly different from anything else I have done. This isn't "right" or "wrong" or "you messed up", this is simply making money.
I may just be one of those who cannot do it. They say there are some people just unable to trade. But I will not give up until I am at least 35 (4 years away).Ignored
Time, practice, patience, dedication. And perhaps a degree of stubborn commitment to get this no matter what it takes. They'll help you through these times. You're giving yourself time, which is great. Now use that time wisely.
And another thing. A losing trade doesn't mean you screwed up, or did badly. It's just another trade. Don't focus on the individual trades, focus on a series of trades.
It can be a long and lonely road. Be gentle with yourself along the way.
