Yea that cattle prod still works

=================

There was a time when I would have given almost everything I owned to someone - to use one on me in an effort to change my ways

The things we do..., are willin to do


Whatever it takes...., for as long as it takes..., by any means necessary (legal of course)

=====================

And yeah - I have been shocked by one - few times by accident..., few time by my brothers

Hurts like hell

I say the above because you've been at this without success for too long and the odds that your problems are trading related are very low.

Well, I simply have to disagree on this one.

How many people do you see in every endeavor in life that dick around for years without really accomplishing anything or at a minimum making very small progress?

It's fairly common.

Psychology is important, but it's usually overrated and used as a scapegoat when the real issue is that your methodology and system simply isn't good enough.

Trying to pick bottoms in stocks is definitely a big bozo no-no, for one.

Man I just watched it on you tube and I can confidently say that that's still sick after all these years. Ah, the 80s. When being as irreverent as you wanted was still funny. Sort of.

Real psychological problems can be due to many things, so assuming most of us are "normal" with respect to everyday life, what is the main thing that affects your "psychological trading", for the want of a better word?
