I don’t know whether one can come up with three different things every day, but in general I agree with the idea.

Be like a robot once you have a profitable strategy...lol

but before that lots of testing and journalizing till you get the strategy.

be patient..do not overtrade (less is more)

and the most important realization: cut your losses quickly and be patient in letting your profits run (depends on your time frame)

Better write it immediately otherwise you will forget it. It helped for met that I wrote and drew things that I just learned on a piece of paper and during the day looked at it to prevent one of those mistakes from happening again. The drawings that I made was Chart patterns which I have spotted often and which I was trading the wrong way.

Identifying a problem is the only way to fix it. Co-insides with "you need to improve about yourself and work on them".

Another secret and IMO isnt really a secret, but learning to become discipline in all areas of life, to allow for discipline to become a second hand aspect of your trading.

I'm a super-helpful guy (just ask anyone), so I'll help you out:

1. I should learn how to spell, well, words - any of them - better.

2. I need to learn how to not sound like a child on a speak and spell.

3. I must stop bothering the adults in the room with presence.

There you go. 3 things for you for the day, and probably every day. You don't have to stop at just 3, though. Go crazy with it.
Congratulations ScalaFX for coming out of the closet!

You've got to know when to hold'em,
Know when to close'em,
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You never count your money when your sitting at the platform
There'll be time enough for counting when the trading's done!!
