Hi
my blog is getting boring with all these trade postings.
i decide to write some of my views and thoughts on my blog.
i mean seriously, i wont go back and read all these trade postings.
and i think nobody will read them anyway.
i almost gave up on this blog as i had a number of losing trades and i do not want to post them here.
i was expecting to post only at least 80% winning trades based on Clarence TNT system. just attend a few trading courses and you are on your way to make easy money and be a millionaire? if it is so easy then everyone no need to work already. guess things are not as easy as it is. am i going crazy with all these losing trades? saying all these bullshit? maybe i am crazy ahhaha. thats what most people says about me anyway.
i had read a lot of books on trading and attended numerous trading courses advertised on newspaper, btw they are not cheap. "80% winning accuracy!", "triple my trading account in 3 days!" "earn $5k in 5 hours!" WOW soudns too good to be true, then most likely it is.
read as much as possible about trading will help? fundementals, technical, economics news, etc. Not really.
staring at the chart everytime will make me a good trader? well thats not true too.
keeping up with the latest economics news and learning everything on the internet will help? well the truth is i lost most of my trades.
current market conditions making trading very difficult? maybe true in a way. but if i am serious in trading full time. i must be able to make money even during volatile times. even during times like now, there are still people making money trading, why not me??? strange maybe i am really cursed. better stick to my 9-5 IT job and get my IT certifications more realistic and stable? at least every month i will be given a salary. every month positive, better then every month negative in trading rite?
well so far my start at fx trading had not been as good as what i expected.
after live trading for about a month, i understand more about trading
trading is 80% psychology and 20% trading system.
so trading is more about your own brain and emotions, which are the most difficult to master. i personally think many traders gave up during this stage.
why do i keep trading even though i am losing most of the time?
am i cursed? why always hit my stop loss then fly up? so strange i am so unlucky?
i got money to lose? i don't want to give up? i refuse to lose? i want to retire early and not be in this rat race? able to enjoy a wealthy life? maybe i hate my 9-6 job as IT support?
i am not sure haha. maybe it is a combination of everything.
i don't know what is it that keeps me going on in trading. i just keep going on. maybe someday i will be lucky and start winning. hopefully i still have my capital and right mind left. wish me luck!
