- You have the skill to walk away from charts when needed
Year 1: You want to become a trading millionaire.
Year 2: You start losing faith.
Year 3: Motivation is gone and no results yet.
Be patient. Great things take time.
Don't give up.
116 days left in 2023.
That's enough time to become a 10x better trader before 2024.
Do these 4 hours per day for the next 116 days and you will gain top 1% trading skills:
1) Trade only backed 1 system or 1 setup
2) Always follow your rules
3) Keep your risk per trade to the minimum (0.5% or lower)
4) Focus on executing your system
5) Don't listen to other people's opinions
6) Trade. Win/Lose. Repeat for 116 days.
Most traders change systems within 30 days.
Most traders break rules due to fear and greed.
Most traders go all in and give up.
You are different.
90% of traders have:
- An edge, but they don't execute it.
- A plan, but they break rules.
- A goal, but they give up at the first failure.
That's why most traders lose.
Stop wasting time:
- If your execution is bad, backtest more.
- If your emotion control is bad, meditate more.
- If your system is bad, practice more.
In trading, everything depends on you.
Trading...
They call you crazy, but you only face your emotions.
They call you gambler, but you only take calculated risks.
They call you workaholic, but you only work on your financial freedom.
Keep going.
