I have traded for five years. And have almost always lost. To say I have had no Luck is no lie. But that’s what makes me special. I never gave up. And through all the losses and pain I have become a better person and trader through the difficulty and by perseverance. I studied brilliant money management and Strategies which all work very well. I went on the worlds best courses and paid big money. There is a proverb: It says: “ why is there in the hand of a fool the purchase price of Wisdom when he has no heart for it.” I was the problem. Not the market. I was un-disciplined. I over leveraged. I got lazy and did not analyze sufficiently. And the main reason for that was that I got caught up inside the Old day trading scalping trap of trying to get involved in market movements that were not mature, ripe and well they just weren’t ready. I have learnt that to be successful in trading this market you need be patient. Waiting for a setup means the market will come to your entry and then you take the risk.
