Work on a real advantage. I recommend the books Jared Tendler: "The Mental Game of Poker 1" and "The Mental Game of Poker 2"
Avoid self-sabotage, if you don't want to be a trader, stop it.
Stop being childish.

Not sure what you mean by the "childish" comment but I do 1,000% agree with the mental aspect of trading being more important.


Thanks for the feedback!

On the 150K the total starting draw down is 4500. If you are down 1500 just stop for the day. This way you will have at least 3 days to go bust. Bad days happen to every trader. Good ones know when to walk away and fight another day.

Absolutely agree....I was having my Internet installed into my new studio when I was in the bad trade and well.....I'm not going to make any excuses, I should have exited.

I look at every loss as a lesson and I think I finally realized one of the missing pieces to my trading strategy.

Thanks for the feedback!
 
Since we are fighting in the same war, here are some ideas:
1. Books by Jared Tendler: "The Mental Game of Poker 1" and "The Mental Game of Poker 2", an absolute hit for the trader.
2. Market Profile - you can't make money without it,
3. For mental problems nootropics, Oxiracetam, Aniracetam, read
4. Software relatively cheap with market profile - multicharts
Don't thank :)
 
This will be my last post.

I thought it would help me but after some hard thinking, it has not and has most likely impeded my progress in some ways that even I am not aware of subconsciously...

Anyway, good luck all!

You are correct in thinking the forum would help, but didn't. If you make a bad trade, you get slammed. If you make a good trade, nobody cares.
