This is an old trading card of mine with my full name blocked out.
For 150 yrs trades were recorded on these cards. I held a handful of these in my left hand behind generic cards CME handed out where I wrote all my levels & targets for the day. I traded 2-4k big NQ with thousands more minis without looking at charts during the day. The time for TA was before the market opened and after the market closed, nothing had changed for me. I am paid to react to a plan during the trading day not paid to think.
I would rather miss a move than lose money. There is always another trade. You chase lost money or lost opportunity you are setting yourself up for disaster down the road.
So thrilled and blessed to be in the @ThePAXGroup long from the ORH taken profit on 75% of my position and still have my runner on. Feet up and easy like Sunday morning. Thank you Brother @paxtrader777 your guidance is incredible and life changing ❤️🔥🙏🏽
ANYONE can make money trading futures. Very very few can keep it and grow it. Less than 1%.
Your career is not defined in one day, or one cycle. Your career is not defined by one, two or three big day, big trades or big years.
I am not impressed with what someone makes in 1 year or 10 years. The ONLY true measure of success is what you take with you when you are done trading for active income.
I cannot tell you the amount of traders that have neglected this and have made millions only to wind up with nothing but debt, tears and heartache.
If you come to trading with a big ego and a lot of money, you will soon be left with a big ego.
I will miss @NinjaTrader_Jim tomorrow but I will be with my old & close friend @AnthonyCrudele for the first part of Capital Preservation Friday and one of my favorite people in @salmaogs in @NTLiveMedia
