The Truth About Trading!

[Mo06]

But then, Mo06, what's stopping you from making the easy profitable trade into a month (year, 10 years, etc.) of profitable trades?

a simple question with simple/hard answers...

Yes well I try...

Making money trading is easy..... very easy...
It's keeping it which is hard, REALLY hard in fact.

You're just playing with words, I can do that too.
"Keeping it is not hard at all, just don't spent it."
Analyze what you wrote: "Making money trading is easy..... very easy..."
Trading means making trades, and trades can deliver profits but also losses. So "making money trading" is the total result of all these profits and losses. Conclusion: profitable trading is hard, not easy.

Typical noob drivel me thinks from Mo06, all talk, no action, all theory created in dreamland.
Dreams will produce results, but only after being followed by hard work.

themickey, hard work is necessary as the pain of big losses and the ecstasy of big wins, problem is where to apply the energy required for the work as most traders (me included, for a time) put the work in the wrong direction and the longer they do so the harder is to let go and learn anew.

If by 'Noob' you mean someone new to the markets, then that description doesn't apply to me, bought my first shares in around maybe 1988...

But believe what you wish to believe...

1988 and you still don't understand that "You will never go broke taking profits" is pure nonsense?

Trading since 1988 does not mean you are not a noob anymore. Noob has to do with knowledge, or rather missing knowlegde.

"You will never go broke taking profits"

Where did I say that ?

Jesus this place is bizarre sometimes....

 

[Vindago]

"You will never go broke taking profits" is actually the opposite of nonsense. It is a very key element of being consistently profitable...
