For example one of my weaknesses was over trading, but now i know i don't need to trade every single small move in the market, there is always tomorrow.
So now i prefer to miss a signal, as frustrating as it might be at times, over trading all the time and wanting to be right all the time.
According to padu, that is the wrong approach. The only way to win in the market is to lose, so you gain knowledge of the market over 20+ years. Only after you lose can you truly win. The real money you are taking home with your trading is not real, because you as Arjuna did not pull back the bow as Krishna commanded.
Ergo, you are not a successful trader. Only by following Brooks and padu can you obtain true trading enlightenment. You must lose for decades before winning, because winning trades are an illusion. Your trading account is Maya. It's not working for him, so prostrate yourself to he, the greatest trader on the planet, as he calls himself.
