“All traders give themselves exactly what they feel they deserve. Trading is an excercise in accumulating money. Once we have learned how to trade (perceive opportunity and exectue our trades), who else or what else could be responsible for how much we end up with in our equity account?”
“People underestimate the time it takes to succeed as a trader. Some people come here and think they can sit with me for a week and become great traders. How many people when they went to college would’ve thought to walk up to the professor and say, “I know the course is for a semester, but I think a week should be enough for me to get it.” Gaining proficiency is the same in trading as in any other profession - it requires experience…and experience takes time.”
