Historic moment in Australia 🇦🇺

For the first time ever, an EV has become the #1 best-selling vehicle in the country across all categories

The Tesla Model Y just outsold the Ford Ranger, the Toyota HiLux, every SUV, and every family car on the market

Top 3 for May 2026:
🥇 Tesla Model Y: 5,605
🥈 Ford Ranger: 4,474
🥉 Toyota HiLux: 4,005

Even bigger picture is EVs just captured a record ~20% of the entire Australian auto market and Tesla is leading the charge

Supply cuts have reduced oversupply in parts of the market

Global EV sales continue to grow, though growth varies by region 🚗

If demand rises and supply growth slows, the market could shift from surplus to deficit

All of the outperformance has come in the past year

If trading is 80% psychology, why aren't monks rich?

If trading is about discipline, soldiers would rule Wall Street.

If risk management alone worked, no one would blow up their account.

So clearly, something is missing...

And here's what most "experts" won't tell you...

Discipline is the last thing you should work on.

I know. Every trading guru and their grandmother says:

"You must be disciplined!"

I can relate.

When I first started trading, I thought discipline was my problem.

I started with Bollinger Bands, and the first few trades were winners.

I thought to myself...

"I'm going to retire by 30, buy a villa, and have a swimming pool."

Now, I'm almost 40. No villa. No pool. And I have 3 monkeys running around my house.

Then…

I encountered 5 losses in a row, and panic set in. I thought the strategy no longer works, so I tried to find something better.

I tried things like volume spread analysis, chart patterns, harmonic patterns, etc.

But the only pattern I see is my trading account going down.

So, what did I do?

I told myself...

"You need more discipline!"
"You need to control your emotions!"
"You need to follow your rules!"
It didn't work.

Because here's the thing...

You can't be disciplined about something you don't trust.

Think about it...

Imagine you have a magic coin.

When you toss it, and it comes up heads, you win $2.
When you toss it, and it comes up tails, you lose $1.
Now let me ask you...

Will you struggle with discipline when tossing this coin?

Will you abandon the coin after 5 losses?

Will you need a therapist to help you manage your emotions?

Of course not!

You'd flip that coin all day. During breakfast. During lunch. During dinner. And even while peeing, you'd be flipping the coin with one hand.

(Don't ask what the other hand is doing.)

Now, why didn’t you have discipline problems with this coin?

Because you know the odds are in your favour.

You don't need motivation. You don't need a trading journal filled with affirmations. You don't need to meditate for 30 minutes before your trading session.

You just flip the damn coin.

Now...

Compare this to most traders.

You use a strategy found on some random YouTube video. You’ve never backtested it. You have no idea if it works over 1,000 trades.

And then you wonder why you can't follow the rules after 3 losses in a row.

Clearly…

You don't have a discipline problem. You have a strategy problem.

When you have a proven strategy that works, something shifts inside you.

You gain conviction.

You gain confidence.

You follow the rules not because you're "disciplined" but because you know the math is on your side.
