Take a breath, shut your eyes and think for a couple of moments. Why are you not yet a consistently profitable trader? ![](https://resources.faireconomy.media/images/emojis/64/1f914.png?v=15.1)
Really think deeply. Go beyond your last few traders, think about your trading experience as a whole. What about last months trading? What about last years trading? If you had to distil your struggles into a single component of the trading puzzle, what would it be?
1. Developing a system with a reliable edge.
2. Finding a system with a reliable edge.
3. Following rules over a long period of time.
4. Beating your trading demons (greed / fear / impatience)
5. Not sure how to move forward and become a better trader.
The above seem to be the most common issues that traders seem to have but if your struggle is something different from the above, I'd love to hear it.
To make it even more interesting, what do you think you need to do to master your struggle?
