The market cannot defeat you

[StarDust9182]

Only you can do that.

.... or as someone else said - there is no spoon -

.... but in answer to a question cornix asked .... indeed there are lessons beyond spoons in trading.

Then configure your BUY button to sell and your SELL button to buy.

As discussed before - this fails because the market's coin has three sides.

Wise words.

Take bell curve of results. Cut off left side with sharp knife. Keep right side open. Do this ten thousand times.

With the education system we have, 90% mix up right and left!

Exactly!

All you need to start trading is money. No need to proof any ability to trade, intelligence or anything else. This leads automatically to lots of problems. Trading is difficult and needs certain skills and education.

However, 95% think they are more intelligent than the average trader - coincidence? I think not!

That's the case with overall population. About the same % think they are smarter than an average person.

Well said. The trader skills are tested under the worst circumstances, if you are doing well in your trading there's nothing to be afraid.

There is no such a thing as a "YOU" but because they don't know this, they latch onto their own world view, their own belief system of this and that. Nothing but their own/other fabrications which they pick up.....hence the market cannot defeat you but your own fabrications/beliefs which means transfer of money from "you" to "them".

Small rock and large rock.....most people are the small rocks that gets pushed around so you want to be the large rock that can't be moved.

True
"YOU" is superstitious
Forget defeating stories and play well so that you can be a conqueror

There is not any fight between us and market. We have to go as market works we can not go much against it .Do what market wants from you not do what you want . it is emotional state when we go to our wishes. Doing trading against trend can be dangerous then how can we say market can not defeat us.
