you must be a gambler, then you are a true trader.
trading itself is a coin-flipping thing. whether you trend follow, or counter-trade, or fade, or bottom fishing, or top picker.
no strategy will gurantee there is a must win. if you100% win,you either cheat or get inside info.
NO RISK NO GAIN. you want success, you must do it!
since it is uncertain, that puts pressure on trader. that is why traders go astray of their own plan or words. they cannot handle the pressure of possible loss! I undersand his situation. very normal to all people. when I have pressure, I starts to yell at people around me.
if you truely want to be trader. tell yourself: do you want to be a gambler? yes or no. if no, then stop.
if yes, you must first accept the fact: trading is gambling.
when you realize it is a gambling. you will be more objective: when you lose, that is not because you are dumb; when you win, you do need not have too much high, you are just lucky. or market conspiracy, some one is manipulating the market to set you up, so you try to revenge.
Quote from pikachu9:
It's ironic that a number of people may not have an issue with normal gambling activities (lotto, scratch off tickets, slot machines), yet be very much addicted to gambling in the financial markets.
