90% of traders dont fail because they're stupid. No, 90% of traders fail because they size up so fast relative to their knowledge and dispensable income, that they blow up before they have a chance to make all the mistakes necessary to become a profitable consistent trader.
It's like going to a 4 year college and spending all your tuition money on year 1.

Like Michael Jordan said "i never lost a game, i just ran out of time".

In the same way most traders who fail didnt really "fail". they just ran out of money.

It takes time to master this game
It takes time to develop an edge.

it takes time to master entries.

it takes time to master exits.

it takes time to find the strategy that matches your personality.

It takes time to undo your bad habits.

And most importantly, it takes time to master your cunty emotions.
That's why i'll never stop shoving risk management down ur throats. the "I blew up" cemetery is filled with far too many traders who would've been phenomenal at this game, but simply got ahead of themselves & blew up far before they reached their full potential.

The 1st step to improve your trading is to stop lying to yourself. You don't suck at trading because of bears/pumpers/ marketmakers etc. You stuck at trading because of:

Shit psychology /mindset
Shit setups (stock selection)
Shit exits
Shit sizing
Shit entries

We live in a society where at the FIRST sign of failure/struggle, people's FIRST reaction is to blame someone or something else. The most important skill to master in this day & age in order to be good at ANYTHING, is the ability to shut the f**k up and look in the mirror.
if u are fat it's because u eat more than u move. PERIOD.

u are frail b/c u dont lift weights consistently. PERIOD.

u are dumb AF b/c u dont read enough. PERIOD.

u struggle at trading b/c SOMETHING is wrong with YOUR process.

Look within. Reflect. Improve.

🏈Every shortseller knows this feeling. We're getting fucking squeezed after being deep in the money (85% win probability at one point).

I sound like a traitor for rooting against all NY teams but come on, we can't lose to the Giants after beating Buffalo.

We got the afternoon trendbreak / late day offering !!! LFGGGG

That TJ Hockenson trade was a such a f**ng POWER move !!

🐻This is where every shortseller tries to decide if he should add to winner (on the bounce into trendline) , take profits, or start shitting his pants.

🐂This is where every Bull bagholder decides if he should sell for small loss or hope for squeeze

🏈 Time to go 11-2 baby !! No way in hell we're losing to punk ass Detroit. Y'all are a low float NFL team.

@__shaka_zulu__ come get this Asgardian phallus. The excess lube won't save y'all either so apply conservatively.

#SKOL

Lil secret.

🎯The most ACCURATE trade setups (high win rate) must be entered a little "too late" and exited a little "too early".

💵The most PROFITABLE trade setups (high reward to risk ratio) must be entered a little "too early" and exited a little "too late"

#BearTipOfTheDay
Why?

To maximize accuracy (win rate), you must wait for confirmation.

Confirmation means that you're letting the smart money move the trade in your favor (or stop the momentum) BEFORE u commit size.

This automatically means that u'll have to enter a bit "late". cant have both
To maximize profits (high reward) aka capture the majority of the move's range, you have to get in BEFORE the move starts (when no one wants the stock).

This automatically means that u must risk getting stopped out early by MMs or being wrong on ur thesis (since no confirmation)

High Spatial IQ will help you learn trading faster ONLY because it'll help you recognize patterns faster. But that's about it. Once you learn how to trade, high spatial IQ is useless.

But on the other hand,
High overall IQ can actually buttfuck u in trading b/c:

1) it'll make u overcomplicate trading

2) the ego that comes with high IQ will make it harder for u to manage risk, since smart ppl hate admitting that they're wrong. So they refuse to stop out or they revenge trade a lot
Ive taught many ppl how to trade, and ironically the smartest tended to struggle the most, because they were just too stubborn to keep things simple or stick to the plan. Meanwhile the low IQ motherfuckers tended to perform better b/c they just executed. No overanalyzing BS
