The loneliness of success

Please explain to me how this is possible more often than once every 28 days. Unless it involves meditating while looking at your bare backside in a mirror? That would be f'd up. But so is this thread.

hahahaha. "meditating while looking at your bare backside in a mirror?".

I think he is saying to look in a miror : observe one eyes, seeing one's angry eyes might be interesting. lol.

Now the one about full moon, I am really a starter in spirituality

For those who have fear of success, aka have given power to someone's else direct or indirect expression of anger - when you were successful or showed success, here is another interesting video.

How to view other's anger

Quote from NoDoji:

If you hesitate, you're either afraid of losing trades or you're afraid of uncertainty in general (meaning you either don't have a statistically valid plan or you doubt your ability to remain steadfast in an environment of constant uncertainty). I

imo hesitation in general is a result of the market never being the same twice. meaning, context + setup are never the same twice. in order for that to happen every trader in the world would have to make the same exact trades at the same exact time to produce the same two exact setups twice. i can accept the nature of probability but unlike a casino where the roulette wheel is always the same, the black jack cards are always the same, the market is never the same.

so hesitation to me is a product of "but". yes this 'looks like' its in my plan to take this BUT, its making me buy a little high, BUT, is this really a third leg?, BUT, bar is too big, too much risk, BUT, this second entry is a bear bar, BUT, we are right below the moving average, BUT, the channel is too steep. BUT, is this a second entry buy or a third entry, the previous leg wasnt clear, BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT, there is always a freaking BUT.

find me this setup, that took 20 bars to form, a couple times a week and i have no doubt id be a millionaire in a year.

I really do not know what to do.
Should I continue on fear of success or start discussing your set-up

i vote lets discuss my flawless setup.

that setup is the grail but really i cant find it often. the probability of success (risk below signal bar, target 1x or more risk) is likely upwards of 70%.

i dont know. im just saying why we hesitate, because the market doesnt ever really give you the same look twice.

Just to make it clear, I am not a psychologist. Maestro declared he himself is a pro and would be the best person to answer.

I am wondering, what do you say to yourself, when you are hesitating?

i say this might be ok, its probably better than a 50/50 trade, but its not good enough, its still too close to 50/50, ill wait for a setup that looks stronger and more certain. the trading day ends, and it never comes. this goes on and on.
