focused in the last 2 yrs as some of my friends and family have been dealing with mental illness , physical issues , dementia and even death in their family it takes a toll on you for sure
Hello Seth: I am sorry to hear that this has touched your family. Although I cannot know how you feel, my father died a couple of weeks ago. He suffered from Alzheimers disease. During this time, I found that I had difficulty focusing on my work, so much so that I had to stop for a while and try to gather myself together again. I think there is little that we can do, but try to obtain some comfort from our faith, our friends and neighbors. In some instances, you may want to look for help from a professional counselor. I am hopeful that time does indeed heal us from these wounds. Take Care. Lefty
First you need to have yourself under control. Too much to one side and you will make stupid decisions. Take a break if things aren't going your way. You know when you are centered and ready for action and hopefully you know when you are not. Avoid those times and works you ass off when you hot. Some of the greatest traders to ever live were "bi" so dont use it as an excuse, use it to your advantage. You will have more mental power than anyone and able to watch all markets at the same time. (be it for a short while) then take a break until you are ready to go at it again. - Always keep emotions out of it. Hope that helps.
