Trading Secrets? Why Do You Lose More the More You Learn?
Most people think that the secret to trading is to learn a few more strategies, understand macroeconomics a bit more, and look at more charts. In fact, it's completely the opposite. The real breakthrough point is never about how many candlesticks you finally understand, but rather about your willingness to face those already rotten parts of yourself: your fear, your ego, and those little demons you can't bear to show.
I often half-jokingly but seriously say to my friends: it's hard to truly become a long-term profitable trader if you haven't blown your account three times. Because 'winning' is never about how much money you made today, but whether you can still hold onto that money next year, rather than blowing yourself up once again.
