Only trader you can be given your circumstances, unless your situation can be altered. Everyone is different with different levels of intellect and life situation.

Which implies each person has different levels of potential. Potential doesn’t always result in outcomes. Don’t mistake luck for talent.

If you try to roll heavy and beyond your means, it’s the quickest way of being taken to the woodshed.

In my experience, successful trading requires finding a style that matches one's personality and lifestyle. Early on, I experimented with various trading styles, from the fast-paced world of scalping to the more deliberate approach of swing trading. Over time, I found that swing trading suited me best, as it allowed for thorough analysis and less frequent monitoring, aligning well with my preference for a balanced and strategic approach to the markets.
