    How to work towards going full time

    I have issue with this one liner. Since older people tend to have slower brains, therefore they are more conservative and not bold.

    How to work towards going full time

    I'm not saying that is bad. However I think there are disadvantages at starting late. For one there's less creativity and an aged brain. And I said before, I consider my experience borders on luck. Maybe even divine intervention sometimes.

    How to work towards going full time

    Sorry, no I wasn't asking you. I was expressing my thought process. I was given that same exact advice early on. I ignored it. There is a reason why having a day job is a hindrance to trading.

    How to work towards going full time

    I see that advice from fan27 commonly given out. Here's a scenario. You work for 10-20 years. Saved up 200k thinking that is what you need. Have a good period of success. Thinks you're ready. Quit your job. Market condition changed. Your system didn't anticipate it. Now you lost 50% or more. Out...

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    Not really. Don't really care. It'll take generations for the effect to be felt and I'll be long dead. So don't really care. My unique perspective on this is the earth has survived a massive meteor impact, it can survive humans. But does the earth need humans?

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    Most solutions to rising CO2 are super expensive is the issue. My perspective on this is how much of the CO2 is caused by human and how much is natural. Amazing how scientists don't point that out.

    The Rise And Fall Of America

    Still not as bad as millions of years ago. I'm not for or against the CO2 debate, but it makes me mad when people use partial statistics to lie. Also, why are we talking about CO2 now? I'm not for or against the CO2 debate, but it makes me mad when people use partial statistics to lie.

    Something I always wonder is how well left brained trader do with women. I've been watching a lot of reruns of Millionaire Matchmakers on Hulu. To say that a lot of millionaires are "strange" is an understatement.

    I didn't say I use intuition during the process of actual trading. But you do need it. Especially during the system development stage. You need a lot of it if you want to connects those dots in less then 7 years. Anyway, this is more then enough ET then I wanted to spend today. I'm running out...

    It's another word for systematic. I think "mechanical" was the go to word in the community. It's been awhile since I've googled trading advice articles or read any trading books.

    I'm not left-brained, so this is an incorrect statement. I also don't do discretionary or mechanical trading.

    wrbtrader, If intuition and discretionary are basically the same definition. Then linear and systematic are the other side. I see a lot of linear type trader on ET. If I was to guess they are the majority. You can tell who's a linear type of thinker by the type of advice they gravitate to...

    How to work towards going full time

    Don't really know what to tell you. If it's your dream, then keep trying. But there's no guarantee you'll figure it out. Without knowing the details about you or your system, it's hard to say.

    How to work towards going full time

    I'm getting ready to unleash the Holy Grail, which was what I was trying to achieve from the start. The irony is that I already had the right rules and ideas from year 1 but for some reason I kept trying to make it more complicated then it really need to be. 2017 was a breakthrough year. Going...

    Are you successful Laissez Faire? I'm asking because you started around the same time I did. At the least I see you're a survivor.
