Quoting Turveyd
Totally agree there I've got a great system and with a what I consider lesser methods a few traders are making a killing ( Gits ) , I need great system to make up for my averageness when it comes to live trade decisions.

I should of stuck to multiple day swing trades via stock I kick ass there, but I like the challenge, trading is more about the challenge and the science than the money.
I'll politely disagree with you there :0

When you have alot of money sure the challenge is nice but I think thats one problem that alot of traders have is focusing too much on the supposed challenge of trading. Leads to overthinking and disaster most cases. When I make money on trades idc if I feel like an idiot afterwords hehe.

I said I like the challenge cause I do, I didn't say it was a good thing for my account value, but it's fun.

Over thinking is a major issue, it's really hard to turn my brain off before I can trade profitably.


I've learnt :-

Trading + Work + Life = Burned out.

I have learned that;


Where ever I go, there I am.


The biggest obstacle in trading is me.


I would rather trust my own mediocre judgment
than to listen to the “experts”.


You should trade in a way that makes sense to you.
There are plenty of good methods and plenty of good
traders who trade each method with success.
Find a successful way to trade that “you know and understand”.


You should ask yourself “why do I want to be a trader” and
“what do I intend to accomplish from it.”. Your answer
is important in determining your trading method.




Most people fear losing money more than they
desire to make money. That is why they lose.

That there is a reason that if you make 25% a month you are making a killing (less trades or smaller amount)...

Knowing when not to trade is essential

If you loose alot you can earn alot

Turveyd,

But are you thinking about trading or the new gal at the office? It must be cause you don't use those indicator thingies that most traders get paralysis of analysis and never make the trade.

It is time for JohnnyBSmart to JohnnyBQuiet. You aren't adding anything of value here. Give a decent argument against something, or give nothing.

Just admit you are in love with Turveyd and be done with it once and for all so we can all get on with things here.
Congratulations ScalaFX for coming out of the closet!
