For an intermediate trader, a major obstacle to making life changing money is the ability to risk an open profit.
The desire to lock in the gains at 1st sign of weakness must be overcomed. It works in a choppy market but when broader market improves, just hold on.
#SwingTrading
I saw a significant improvement in my trading performance & especially calmness & clarity while trading + reduced stress after making this 1 change which took time & effort but felt worth it.
Not having any FOMO for missing some trades when environment was bad & not trying to change styles to make money
Underlying concept was not in a Rush to make money from markets, being really thankful to markets of all the good times when it showered much more than i ever thought and having the patience and trust that once more such a time will arrive when things will be easy.
As a swing trader this has helped me immensely, comment if there is some one change that has helped you improve drastically in this journey
I became father at 25. Father in law at 50. And it worked best for me. I am a strong supporter of early marriage and parenthood. Money, career and everything else becomes easier to build together.

Budget resets the market. Structures of leading sectors broken down. Back to the drawing board to pick the new swings. Let's see which stocks/sectors setup now.
Qullamaggie on Trading Alone and How Loneliness is an Edge
“Relationships are an edge in anything you do, relationships are an edge. Except for trading. It depends on what type of trading you’re doing, obviously. Like I don’t have any relationships with like anyone. I mean, like you can really do it completely alone. You don’t have to involve anyone in it. You’re not dependent on anyone. It’s you versus the market.
Doesn’t it get lonely? Sometimes. But also it helps me focus. I think loneliness may be an edge. I see too many people; I mean, it depends on your personality too. If you like to know, mess around if you want to drive to an office or something. I really don’t have a desire to do it. I think it’s nice to work from home, but yeah… sometimes I do wish I had colleagues. But I don’t know; on the other hand, I would be more distracted.”
10 Years Ago I Needed to Hear This
On Risk & Survival
→ The market doesn't reward bravery. It rewards survival.
→ Size kills more accounts than bad entries ever will.
→ If you're calculating how much you could make, you've already lost.
→ The best trade is often the one you didn't take.
→ Never add to a loser. You're not "averaging down." You're compounding a mistake.
→ Risk 1% and you can be wrong 50 times in a row. Risk 10% and you're done in a month.
On Losses
→ A small loss is a victory. It means your rules worked.
→ The stock doesn't know you own it. It doesn't owe you a bounce.
→ Cut your losses fast. Not because you're scared-because you're disciplined.
→ Every blown account started with "I'll just wait for it to come back."
→ Your ego wants to be right. Your P&L wants you to be flexible.
→ The loss you avoid is worth more than the gain you chase.
On Winners
→ Sell your losers and your winners ride themselves.
→ The hardest skill isn't finding winners. It's holding them.
→ Nobody went broke taking profits-but plenty stayed poor doing it too early.
→ A stock up 10% can go up 100%. Let the trend do the work.
→ You don't need to catch the bottom or the top. The middle 60% is where the money is.
On Patience & Timing
→ Cash is a position. Sometimes the best one.
→ The setup comes to you. You don't go hunting for it.
→ Boredom is profitable. Excitement usually isn't.
→ The best swing traders I know spend 90% of their time waiting.
→ "I need to be in something" is the most expensive sentence in trading.
→ When nothing looks good, nothing is good. That's information.
→ The market will be there tomorrow. Your capital might not.
On Psychology
→ You're not trading the market. You're trading your beliefs about the market.
→ Revenge trading is just paying tuition twice for the same lesson.
→ Your worst trades will come after your best trades. Stay humble or get humbled.
→ Confidence after a win streak is the most dangerous feeling in trading.
→ The moment you think you've "figured it out," the market will remind you.
→ Trading well and making money aren't always the same thing. Focus on the process.
→ Journaling feels pointless until you catch the same mistake for the fifth time.
On Simplicity
→ One pattern mastered beats ten patterns understood.
→ The best systems fit on an index card.
→ If you can't explain your edge in two sentences, you don't have one.
→ Complexity is where traders hide from accountability.
→ More screens ≠ more profits. Usually the opposite.
On Reality
→ Social media shows entries. It never shows the exits, the drawdowns, the doubt.
→ The traders who make it aren't smarter. They just survived long enough to get consistent.
→ Markets change. Your principles shouldn't.
→ You will miss 100x runners. Doesn't mean your process is broken.
→ Being early is the same as being wrong-until it isn't. Manage accordingly.
Took me many trades, and days away from the screen to finally internalize these.
The market taught me everything. I just had to stop fighting the lesson.

Do the things you want to do within your physical, mental and financial capacity, today.
Live today fully, within your means. 50 yrs later, you dont regret you didnt buy the Sports car at 20, as you know you couldnt afford it. But you will regret what you could but didnt do.
Qullamaggie on No One Semi-Serious About the Markets Can Be Successful
“No one who’s semi-serious about markets is really going to be very successful at it. That’s just how it is. There are no mediocre successful traders in this business. You can’t be mediocre.
If you’re mediocre. Unlike other types of businesses, you can be a mediocre teacher or a mediocre chef, and still have a job and pay your bills. But in trading, if you’re mediocre, you’re going to lose money.
You have to be good, and you won’t be good if you’re only half-assed. You really have to be motivated and focused.”
"The only clue to what man can do is what man has done." ~ R G Collingwood
Written by a philosopher/historian, but so applicable to the equity markets and trading. This is why the patterns keep repeating. This is why momentum works.

A friend told me that now that they've had a child, her husband can't bear to watch movies in which bad things happen to kids. Same here. That was one of the most surprising things about having children. You're not just protective of your own children, but children in general.
@ishmohit1 This interview of his introduced me to Darvas and led to technicals/momentum/SL. Helped me evolve into a full-time trader from pure funda.
Very practical and straight talk which actually helps traders/investors rather than the gyan/quotes that is normally shared.
