@_sierratrading Hello sir, I’m your subscriber. I’m kinda new to trading and have a small question but have no one else to ask, so I'd like to ask if you don't mind. My question is, assuming we enter a trade according to our own system, and over time the price moves closer to the TP,
MOST OF WHAT YOU DO:
- decision making
- desires
- impulses
- behaviours
- preferences
- what you focus on
- what you ignore
- what you tolerate
- what you believe is possible
- how you respond to pressure
…are all driven by parts of the brain that are not conscious to you.
Parts that were patterned, conditioned, and installed over time.
MOST of what we DO is not arrived to through actively THINKING. It is mostly repeated HABIT.
We are program executing machines.
It is IMPERATIVE that you intentionally PROGRAM YOURSELF for success.
The alternative is that you succumb to whatever path your environment happens to shape you into.
Nobody became successful by accident.
MOST people ARE accidents, programmed accidentally and are just mirrors of the garbage they consume.
Don’t be most people.
KEEP IN MIND, ALL WAYS, AT ALL TIMES, the CORE DICTUM of LAMBROS Ω
PROGRAM OR BE PROGRAMMED
Namaste.
Nobody loses more severely and consistently than the overly cautious.
Such an abominable way to live. Completely antithetical to human spirit.
I can never hide my disgust when I see it.
If you’ve ever competed in a sport or competition of some kind, you know that defeat hunts you down once your mindset shifts from playing to win to playing to not lose.
Your entire life is like this.
Even if you're a discretionary vibe based TA punter, you should be able to categorise your ideas into a handful of buckets
TA traders love fixating on specific pattern names
"No, bro, it's an inverted Alec Baldwin Shooting Star, not a Doji!"
But what they are really doing is mapping specific well-established market effects
Momentum: It moved fast and hard, so it's going to keep moving fast and hard
Trend: It's been moving in one direction, so it's going to keep moving in that direction
Mean Reversion: It moved a shitload in one direction, so it's going to move a bit in the other
Volatility Expansion: It's been going fucking nowhere, so it's about to go somewhere
Absorption: Someone really tried to move it and it barely budged, so it's going the other way
Catalyst / Catalyst Absorption: This news is about to blow up the book / This news should have blown up the book but didn't, so someone with deeper pockets is eating the headline traders
At least now you can sound smart while losing money from drawing lines on charts (like me fr)
Yes, recent preclinical studies (2024-2025) show antiparasitic drugs like ivermectin inhibit cancer pathways such as Wnt/β-catenin, PAK1, and PI3K/AKT/mTOR in lab/animal models, slowing growth/apoptosis. Fenbendazole hits microtubules and glycolysis (HK2). Pyrvinium pamoate (pinworm med) affects Wnt in skin cancer models. These echo metabolic overlaps in the 1951 Soviet paper, but human clinical data is limited—no approved cancer treatments.
You can tell how successful someone is going to be based on how much agency they have in everything they do. Easiest to see this when you interact with people doing their jobs.
When you ask for something simple and reasonable most quickly say things like "sorry, can't do that" if it deviates even slightly from what they've been trained to do.
They are completely okay with being useless as long as they can pass off blame to external circumstance.
Always some limiting excuse.
An inner powerlessness.
One secret to reality distortion and imposing your will is being charismatic enough to recognise this in people quickly, and getting them to do what you want without humiliating or embarrassing them.
A man’s character appears clearly when he has options. Scarcity makes people behave well out of necessity, abundance reveals what they choose when they can do anything. Build enough competence and resources to choose freely, then hold yourself to a standard that does not change with mood.
Learn to speak slowly, decide slowly, and reveal your thoughts even more slowly, because people start to sense that your mind does not jump to conclusions and that your presence carries a weight they must account for before they act.
