That's correct! A few mistakes? If you have to take a mortgage on your house after more than 10 years of trading, because you have no money anymore, then it is not a "mistake". That's a huge basic problem, especially if you wipe out TWO times.
yes it is a huge problem but not all the soldiers who were killed (and it is a huge problem isn't it?) were bad soldiers... and not all those who survived were the good ones (or at least better than those who did not survived). shit happens...
Life goes on - the only other choice to moving forward is suicide. Consequently, I don't see a point in dwelling on the past. As qxr1011 just said, shit happens, u don't stand in it and keep smelling it, u wipe it off and keep walking.
Of course it "sucks" on its own. Everything does. You can't trade solely on the basis of a general principle. You need strategy and tactics. So I'm not quite sure what point you're making.
imho as a solely "general principle" for working method it is not enough one need to combine it with other "general principles"
I agree, but maybe he should have dwelled a bit in the past. You should learn from mistakes in the past. So "the only other choice to moving forward is suicide" is not correct. And clearly he didn't learn because shortly after the first crash he crashed again.
