Took the hit on EJ (had to be one today) and didn't take the chance to bail at around BE when I had it - but there may be another bite to be had...

Question... It might seems like a weird one but... I'm weird so...
Trading now since mid 2014 and losing more than I should have. Now it seems like the anxiety/nervousness about trading is slowly fading away. My question; is it normal ? I mean one cannot trade for all his life been anxious all the time I get that but should I be cautious with this new feeling of "relax trading" ? Is it something you guys who are consistently profitable went trough ?
I do not make 100% perfect trade all the time. I bend rules here and there. But overall I am strict with the approach, trading only during the right period and at the levels.
I guess what I am facing is a "can it be true?" phase... It is hard for me right now to think it will continue just fine as I never experienced it.
Any comments are appreciated.
Take care guys.

You will find that it is coming from the fact that you trust and understand the method.
It is all very well following a ''system'' blindly (or even worse, someone else's signals) but once you actually understand what it is you are doing, you know that you can truly trust it. You're not constantly waiting for it to all fall apart - or the signal-supplier deciding to retire to Hawaii (or get hit by a bus) - and it is so liberating. You are in charge of your own destiny. You've put in the legwork and you will reap the rewards.
I have worn many hats in my time and one of them was as a pro-sports climber. People used to say I was extremely brave on the routes - however, funnily enough I always found that I was always bravest when I was physically strongest
. Plus you know what - it even becomes, shock, horror...fun! You begin to enjoy trading.
