There's a lot of topics regarding if trading could be profitable, or fulltime, or whether it is all just a scam or manipulated, blah blah blah.
Of course some traders lose, some profit, (I am not using phrase,'win.') And hopefully more profits than losses, but that is over a brief time period.
Then there is the psych and emotion matter and how to manage it. A second ton of opinions exist within this topic too because there is extensive variation in every trader's psych, emo, mindset, self, injury, unhealed stuff, etc., etc., etc..
Let's not argue about who killed who... Let's return to the party and find the fantastic stuff. There's a lot of folks posting about theoretical trading belief and you can not argue belief. I enjoy chocolate, chocolate stinks, it is vanilla for me, you jerk. Really? Just how much text can be consumed on that? We could power a small city with the angry fingers typing out answers to fires and trolls when we captured that energy. And then there is the thread dictators, my way or the street, I will ban you and also boast about how many that I banned and just how much of a jerk you're for daring to post in my own thread. Ok, that sounds a little less than helpful, but I guess if you get off that, then it at least helps you, dude.
That which I do not see much of is traders stating, I lost on this transaction, I have stopped out here due to..., and that I learned this lesson, and this specific egy worked for me or it is a fantastic portion of a method but I snapped it up because..., stuff that you'are' entering into your daily trading diary that I know you all have and are maintaining and reviewing to remember your lessons.
If you openly expose your failings, clutter ups, and lessons, it just might enable you to concentrate a little more on them. Why? Because that is what I do, I put it out there and think, man, I look like crap admitting to that. However, it sticks in my understanding and I definitely keep in mind the simple fact that, on that particular mess up, I published that lesson and it burns in that memory, which might aid me. The key word here is'help.' I just don't see much effort going into helpful articles, yes there are many, and that I do not mean methods and lines, and theoretical fibbs and level predictions and endless charts that have arrows all over the area, that is fine, but it is not a mistake or a booyah awesomely traded egy with goals either attained or ruined because of a trader's performance or lack of subject to their egy, that's the part that I think is helpful. What did you do, how did you do it, can you be consistent at it, this really is the fantastic stuff I do see some of and when I see it, I go, Wow! That is awesome and really helpful.
You know that you couple are who do this so if you can pop a copy of it or link to it, I do not want this thread to be the only area you post it right into, or if you see somebody who didn't post this sort of helpful post, pop up a link in here to point us to it. I really could care less if that gets 3 articles in five decades, but the classes that do exist in various sections offorexforum.co.zaare gold. Let's find themput em in here if ya got em. I know I have a couple. Stay calm carry on observing and decent trading.
