    trade sim til you get it right then trade small on that same setup, then increase, think of it as starting a career as a tightrope artist,safety net,low bar and then higher,the fear will always be there,but the repetition will give you confidence, the opposite of fear,acquire it thru repetition,experience

  2. I always heard that faith was the opposite of fear. But that was in church, and I quit going awhile ago. I suppose faith and confidence are the same thing. :)

    Not quite. Faith can be blind. Confidence, as I've heard it said, is constructive pessimism in that you are properly prepared to deal with matters should they go wrong. Big difference.

    This isn't where I first came across the term, but it seems to apply:
