Impatience is expensive.
Many traders enter too early, exit too late, or overtrade because they don’t want to wait. Elite traders allow patience to act as a filter.
They wait for:
Clean structure
Confirmed direction
Defined risk
Patience removes low-quality trades before money is ever at risk.
Professional trading is not about speed.
It is about letting patience protect capital.
Elite traders understand that waiting is not lost time —
it is active risk management.
