After 8 years I am still trading, that is a miracle in itself. I have been challenged mentally more than any non-trader could ever imagine. I am so much less emotional than I was before about trading. I trade WAY less now than ever.

BUT... I still suffer from all the crazy stuff,,,, "should I day trade" "swing trade" "how about options" "what about ETFs?" and so forth...then there is the "woulda Shoulda Coulda"

anyway,,, only those here on this forum will relate to what I am talking about. Nobody in my life, except one friend who used to trade, gets it...

You need to develop a trading system/plan, then you won't go crazy as much.
