The basic male emotion is to act. To fight. To win.
And in trading, it kills you.
You want to recover losses — you drain the deposit.
You want to 'prove' you were right — you get stopped.
You want to join because everyone is joining — you get caught in a dump.
In trading, you have to break yourself.
Learn to wait.
Learn to admit that you are wrong.
Learn not to trade when emotions are in play.
Trading is against instincts.
And that's why...
Those who survived become cold as ice.
Or they just leave. Forever.
