    I hope you are correct, I thought that too when things were going well. You cannot underestimate the power of people who start from the right and are stuck there or who have been pulled in from the middle, the end result, negative for people on the left, is the same regardless or origin.

    This may help, you are currently on the left, and now being slowly but surely pulled backwards towards the firewall. Then you will be spat out back to the populace if you don't have a backstop in place, usually minus your capital and energy. It is very rare they ever give up, primarily because of the belief you should be living with the populace.

    That's trading, understand the psychology of who you are trading against and their desire to make money irrespective of time or how it affects others. You want to make sure you stay where you are and keep arms length, otherwise you end up with skills you never knew you didn't want.

  4. Where

    Think about this seriously


    Most traders got sucked into trading , after blindly investing in the stockmarket , only to see it rise and give a handsome profit .

    NOW REMEMBER MY GOLDEN WORDS

    You are just a fuckin blind monkey , throwing darts in a bull market (this is a bull market) and remember the saying any idiot can make money in a bull market

    There is no training, classroom or otherwise, that can prepare for trading the last third of a move, whether it's the end of a bull market or the end of a bear market. Paul Tudor Jones

    Wow you sound like a very angry individual,

    I dont know what your talking about since all the equities i trade are listed on the TSX-V and a few in the TSX, which is clearly not in a bull market

  6. I am not angry at all , most of these goons who had early luck , they lost for the remainder of their career . They had no skill , nowadays they just gamble or sell education to new traders .THE FIRST FEW SHARES THEY BOUGHT MADE MONEY

    just scammers :then they open leads on forums , like yourself pretending to be a NEW trader , then comes the pitch by private messages to sell education.When they get caught , they register a new alias ,like yourself amd come back pretending to be a profitable trader.

    you claim to have made 100% a year from 8,000

    so it started as being dropping out of school to trade fulltime.
    to finishing school and trading fulltime.
    to finishing school, working a few years and then trading fulltime.
    to finishing school, working a few years, building an account and a second income stream and then trading fulltime.

    Do the analysis I suggested above.

    99.9% of the posters here are not full time traders. In fact, most are dreamers, busted gamblers, and others living a fantasy life online while being browbeaten by angry spouses or employers.

    Follow your dreams mate, and don't ask the anonymous masses what to do.
