In trading, sometimes, the more expensive trades are worth more.
No amount of hard work will solve a bad trading position, exiting will solve it.
We must trade with the flow.
Trading is to make money, not to be right.

I must be patient with my trade entries and myself.
It is not what you know that kills you. It is what you think you, but which just isn’t so, that kills you.
I must learn to live under different paradigm, and have a different perspective on fear and hope.
You do not become a viable trader by looking at the chart, you do by looking at yourself!

Interesting story about the candle stick experts. They never trade. 😬
Trading is so subjective that we don’t need to be right very much to make a good living from trading.
The old Fox story feels close to me. When my trades turn green right away, it is a great sign. When turn red, they are failures. I must cut red trades immediately.

A losing trader is not going to wish to transform himself. That is the sort of thing that only winning traders do.
The trader effort is disproportional to its expectations, and their results are aligned with their effort. The trader simply doesn’t work hard enough.
In the search for patterns, we see things that are simply not there.
