Here is my take on NoDoji. I really admire her. I started trading a couple of years after her and in some ways took similar amounts of time as she did to learn some things.
She is one of the most transparent traders who posted their journey on ET.
2008 Feb to June trades having had no prior trading experience, wins briefly and then loses. Stops trading live and sim trades.
2008 June-July-Aug sim trades; Starts her Journal Log in July of ’08.
September 2008 to September 2009 works with mentor but doesn’t take a single one of his trades.
Considers quitting, but understands RedNeck to say that it actually is possible to have consistent winning days. So she continues to trade and learn.
There are several years of slow progress.
2014 is her 7th year… and she says in a personal conversation she hasn’t had a losing day in ‘a long time’ – so long that she can’t remember when. She is finally doing what RedNeck said could be done. With the exception: she is still not able to trade size – if she increases size, she just loses.
2015 From appearances she can now trade size towards the middle of the year. As she has more and more success, she doesn’t need to think about trading so much; and posts less and less.
Feb of 2016. Says that she now has other fish to fry and in general turns her attention to other things. These are her last posts.
