From failure to success in trading (my story)

It's not my intention to OT this thread, but you don't have a 4 handicap, or you'd be in the top 7% of all golfers in the world. Some club pro's don't sport a 4 handicap.
single handicappers are in the top 10% of all the golfers in the world.

you can ask my club what my handicap is.
 
remember there is a lot of money to be made even by trading reasonably small.

money is made by being right NOT BY TRADING BIG

what is important is that you learn what the market does.

i have read 100s of books for 30 years

no book has helped me except Brooks and even that took me 14 years to get an idea what he is talking about...just an idea......

i am still learning
 
only hard work does not pay out. i know it from experience.

you have to work correctly and then it will eventually pay out after much
failure.

good guidance is priceless...

So you think the holy grail to enlightenment is to not work hard, but to follow a guru who claims said enlightenment. Typical Hindu bullshit.

He didn't write where he has played.:D

wow you are observant

i am not interested in proving anything

No. You're more interested in telling people that because you studied trading books and did not get anything out of that effort, that nobody else can do it either. That is so passive-aggressive it makes my head spin.
 
Its very important for traders to hear about failures, it humanizes everything. Too many guys talk about their winners and so called small losses. Ive taken some severe hits in my day and it was absolutely demoralizing. I also took some time off. 2 years to be exact. I just eliminated some bad habits and actually stuck to those rules. Is it fool proof? Of course not but i am much more profitable and avoid big losses.

Excellent
 
Congrats and thanks for sharing. So you no longer trade the correlation strategy (the one described in your blow up thread) at all?

not at all friend.
I focused on other more scalable and easy-to-develop strategies.
