in what line of work do you make money consistently before you learn and train for 20 years? lawyer? engineer ? doctor? senator ? pilot. nuclear engineer. mathematician. college lecturer or professor. forget it . learn for 20 years then you call me failure.
no he is not making an effort to train and learn. just make money ... that just does not make sense. that guy is gambling he has not posted one trade live or other wise. and he is questioning me. what is his qualification.
so waht 90% are messing up are they quitting. 90% of professional money manager do nor beat the stock market benchmark. so ....
Good Morning zghorner, Exactly, we trade to make money consistently. Otherwise we are ruining our health with stress and misusing our time. Time we can spent doing better things in life.
Hello Padutrader, You asked, so here is proof today. I do not know why have not profit the past 20 years. I never traded the past 20 years, just 5 seriously. hmmmmm, many reasons why, trying different stuff, algo backtesting, programming, all sorts of stuff. Things improved once I went my own way and stop listening and following other traders theory and stop all this back testing bullshitting searching for Edge. Searching Edge wasted soo much of time. I hate the word Edge now. Trading is really not hard at all, we just be listening and reading to much damn bullshit from other people. You gotta put that book down @padutrader and all that all stuff you be doing. Just make money
When I started trading it was all about making money fast but I acknowledge I was an idiot beleving that. I'm retired from the workforce several years now and trading fills my day, keeps me busy, entertained, active in the brain department, keeps me alive, pays the bills. Stress - very minor aspect. When market gets hammered and thousands of dollars per day are peeling off, yes I get a bit shitty, but when it rises and I make several thousand bucks per day I do feel elated.
