TRADERS, HEAR ME OUT...
Romans 12:12: ''rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer''
How does this relate to TRADING? Well, how happy are you with your progress so far? Perhaps you've been trading for 1, 2, or even 5 years, HOPING to become a PROFITABLE trader. Your journey may seem so dreadful, maybe you're depressed, and the only thing that will uplift you is becoming a profitable trader.
Rejoicing in hope means being grateful for the NOW. It's saying, ''I know I'm not completely there, but hey look how far I've come. I'm in a better position than when I started.'' It's saying, ''Today I took a loss, but hey I have a rule based model, and in the long run, I know it will pay off.''
The point is: to have hope, you must rejoice along the way. This will help you reach wherever you want to go in life. If you weep your way through the journey, you'll never truly be happy because after one desire comes another. if you approach your goals with frustration, it will only take you longer.
If you constantly compare yourself to other traders who are ahead of you, or you keep weeping about not being profitable, you'll delay your development. Every other trading day you will go on a tilt; it will be you vs. the market and the market will always win.
PS: Read your bible you'll find millionaire advice inside it :)

I get discouraged when I see Transparent traders in the space turning into affiliate codes professionals, introducing brokers, full time live streamers and mentors.
I get so discouraged when I have to scale back my trading smaller size less accounts less payouts when I never see other “bigger” traders having to do the same then I realize 99% of social media traders are hiding the real reality ask yourself if your mentor doesn’t post payouts but trades props why? Ask yourself if they sell a course or discord but you can’t see their yearly verification on pnl on their regulated broker? If you don’t know how a trading influencer makes you’re probably being deceived
