I am not a fish, I am…

Yesterday I have forgotten that trading is a long-term business. Hence the need to let off some steam.

I entered a trade and it went against me. Burned my fingers and closed the trade.
I entered a second trade and it went against me. Burned my fingers and closed the trade.

I entered a third trade and it went my way. After very minute wiggle I scrambled to close the trade, barely positive. Why? When I saw that small wiggle I remembered my previous two trades and tried to avoid having my fingers burned again.

I read somewhere that fish remembers only the last 6 seconds of it life, i.e. its memory is too small to store any more data.

Well, that was me yesterday…

So, I am sitting here, looking at my image in the mirror and chanting: “I am not a fish…just an ordinary moron”.

Lol.

The problem is that I am going to forget yesterday’s experience next week or next month.

What does that make me? Fishy moron?!
:(
 
This type of trading makes you...just another average, undiciplined trader. Part of the 80% watching their money float away.
