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 yesterdayâ¦
So, I am sitting here, looking at my image in the mirror and chanting: âI am not a fishâ¦just an ordinary moronâ.
Lol.
The problem is that I am going to forget yesterdayâs experience next week or next month.
What does that make me? Fishy moron?!
