  1. Just a poll; trying to figure out if psychological support makes a difference in the success of traders.
     
  2. no one has supported me from day one 6 years ago. It's rough, and whats harder is I don't know anyone else who trades in my local area. Friends who don't trade when they hear I have a good week get jealous. Everywhere I turn it's negative. The bright side is trading has been break even in these 6 years. Much better then most. Just not good enough. I am hoping for a change this year. I have been highly active. We'll see.
