Nah. 27 to 33 is when you enter the portal to the most beautiful version of your life

27 is when you take the leap
28 shows you who you are. Forced to sink or swim, you realize what you’re truly capable of
29 the vision becomes clear. You double down on yourself
30 you begin doing the best work of your life
31 is your meteoric rise
32 living a life better than your wildest dreams
33 is when your partner comes into your life and you begin build the next foundation to the rest of your life

After 7 years of trading I realized simplicity beats complexity every time. All courses and strategies didn't matter. What worked was thousands of hours letting patterns bake in. If your chart looks like a Christmas tree that's the problem

سألت جدي عمره 82 سنة:

"إيش الشيء الواحد اللي تتمنى إنك سويته بدري؟"

ما قال السفر.
ولا قال المال.
ولا قال الوظيفة.

قال 9 كلمات لسه أفكر فيها إلى اليوم بعد سنة وللحين مصدومة:

Profitable trading is boring, yet all of these fake technical analysis gurus make trading look fun.

Lesson in there. Simplification is key, you don’t need a Picasso styled chart to read the market.

You don’t look smart, instead retarded.

It takes a very specific type of person to be a successful trader

You need to be delusional enough to think you can make it in a space where less than 1% of people succeed

But logical enough to have realistic goals, good risk management and to be brutally honest with yourself

Such a weird mix

Which is why I think so few people succeed with trading

I’m leaving yall with this tonight.

Life pro tip. Not enough people talk about this. The secret to having a "fulfilling" life is doing new things. Radically doing new things. Consistently. Every day. New activities, people, goals, even something as simple as trying new foods. Life feels longer when you're a kid because every day is packed with almost infinite amount of new learning. As you get older, you've already acclimated to your environment, the new inputs stop, so your perception of time speeds up drastically.

Let’s freakkkking work tomorrow.

🛑 STOP LITTERING YOUR MIND ✋

If you’re a trader worrying about anything else but finding and executing a set up according to your “model” from the strategy you learned is nothing short of throwing rubbish in your head.

What littering might look like:
- thinking “what if this stops working”
- worrying about the news
- obsessively checking the news (and social media)
- doubting and “just in case” checking what someone else thinks
- looking at PnL during an open trade
- dissecting the set up into 1minute time frames
- comparing yourself to others
- thinking „if I only did this or that”

Those are only a few types of thoughts that act as litter that distract you from simply sticking to your plans and executing them. Make sure you know how to spot them and throw it out as soon as it appears.

Clear, fresh and focused mind is „all” you need.

[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

One of the best paragraph I ever read and that is still printed in my mind:

"Trading is an art that is learned not by adding something to one’s knowledge, but by removing something from one’s nature.

Waiting, for a trader, is the most refined and difficult form of action to master.

To wait and to do nothing are two very different things, within waiting lies opportunity.

In the time “wasted” waiting, the mindset of a true trader is forged.

Waiting is not for everyone, only those who have understood that trading is also a patient hunt, waiting for the prey to stick its nose out of the den, are capable of “wasting” time wisely.

Boredom is a treacherous sidekick of the ego, an apparently harmless ally, yet one that ensnares the minds of many traders.

Lurking, like a cat, scanning for opportunities: it’s a concept universally accepted in theory, but practically ignored by a vast number of aspiring traders.

Doing nothing and waiting are two very different things.

Observing patiently, awaiting the right moment, is boring, very boring.

Opportunities will be missed.

But that is the price to pay to avoid unexpected setbacks, ones that often stem from a small trade made to escape boredom or to chase the latest “trend” everyone is talking about."

I was a quant at a HFT firm for 5 years. The things I've seen would make retail traders never want to trade again. The amount of information asymmetry between institutional and retail is not something most people can even comprehend
