My apologies and my respects to those who read me—hard days personally, but very productive here in the exchange. Nothing about thousands of dollars earned, and very exceptionally hundreds, but yes, in the double digits and even in single digits. Small and medium gains are all a matter of methods, I’d say René. I’ve come to discard the idea that every day is more predictable and easier to beat the market. Winning is a combination of taking exactly what you need and knowing that what isn’t in your account doesn’t belong to you. It’s only a lie your 🧠 brain tells you.
One of the emotional responses that still surprises us is how we suffer a hundred times more for what we fail to win—or worse, for what we could have won. It’s truly ridiculous and unbelievable to cry over what could have been and wasn’t.
When you learn to celebrate—truly celebrate—that your first victory in trading is realized when you preserve your capital, that means the week ends and you still have your $100. That’s the first lesson you must learn. The next is learning to be happy with a dollar you earned, not with the hundred that your 🧠 brain says you could have earned. If you’ve already achieved that—not just with words, but because you practice it in real life—you’ll be ready to move up to the next step 🪜.
Believe me, you can beat the market—but you must learn, you must understand it. Only by knowing who you’re dealing with will you overcome it.
A hug
