what was your aha moment when you first started trading?

So I remember the first time I blew my account. I thought I was incapable. Then, the “Aha” moment happened. Every new trader blows trading accounts once. lol

My Aha moments were inversely proportional to the knowledge and success I had.

If you have no Aha moments anymore:
  • or you reached the perfect knowledge
  • or you realized that you have no knowledge at all and have to find another hobby
  • or you realize that each Aha moment is just a small improvement of what you had already, but is not the holy grail
  • or you realize that you should never say "Aha" as it has no impact on what you "achieved"
Based on my past experience with Aha moments, I decided not to use Aha anymore. Because after each Aha moment, my expectations were always bigger then what happened in reality.
 
I had many misconceptions about the market. I thought I would make money instantly. Even I left my job. Soon, I realised: it is not as easy as it looks.

learning to read charts. Indicators, oscillators & the Fibs.
 
My Aha moment was when I realised I had almost blown my account to zero in the hope of recovering my losses. This impulsive trading was really expensive.
 
I'm still only using the demo account to practice. There, I had many aha moments as well as sad ones. I will update when I feel the one with a real account.
