40% this year.

If you can't control yourself, then you are doomed. I suggest trying something else. Trading might not be for you.

PS Awful jobs number this morning. IF your stock was weak yesterday on a large rally, imagine what it could do on a day where the mkt is going to open down big :eek:

There is a problem though... any mistakes I make, will only make me even more cockier in the future. What should I do?

I sold all my ISRG at open today.
<b>
+Net PROFIT 30k (down from 70k @ 382)
</b>
purchase buy 340 ,
exit around 369

=====================

fireplace,
actually yesterday was a signal for me, it made me sell 75% of my position, So while my selling was not "good execution" ,<b><h2> I was not asleep on the wheel.</h2></b>


Next trade will be a lot better, I learned a lot from my mistakes, Each mistake will make me stronger, the next trade I will be even more cockier.. Bet on that.
 
I'm showing ISRG having a high of 367.00 today, how did you exit 369? :confused:

fireplace,

while I may brag, <b>I don't lie, or exagerate "by much".
 
All the chest thumping will surely slow down your learning curve. Stay humble but confident.

Humble but confident? Do you think I'm superman?
I'm sorry, but to expect this in a man is impossible.

Our emotions go one way or another, either completely humble with low confidence, or a psycho egolamanic.

This is how humans work, I can be humble when I wasn't making no money. But I can't be humble when 10s of thousands are pouring into my account on a daily basis,

Its almost fucking impossible for human nature to do so.

You are asking for a lion to be polite while he chases down a zebra and devours him.

You are asking for a crococidle to bite slowly while he chomps on a donkey.

You are asking for a Swan to dance around and make a scene (they are quiet)


I'm sorry, but its either ferocious or silent.


No humble ferociousness.
