What draws you to trading might destroy you.

Contrary to how trading is marketed,day trading isn’t for everyone

It looks like freedom but it feels like war

It’s not a job

It’s not a side hustle

It’s a mirror

Everyone can place a trade

Few are willing to look in the mirror

And face their fears and beliefs and head on

It’s chess - strategy

It’s poker - psychology

A video game - dopamine

All wrapped risk

It attracts the obsessed

Those who think deeply

And are risk takers

The 9-5 world offers certainty

Trading strips that away

Exposes parts of your routine

You think you are here to make money

But the real game ?

Making peace with yourself

You only want control but only win consistently when you surrender to the process

The market doesn’t care what you want

It only reflects who you are being in the moment and how well you respond

Don’t trade to prove something

Don’t trade to escape something

Trade to become something greater

Remember why you started because it’s too easy to loose your way

If you don’t define your path intentionally

The market will define it for you

And you may not come back from it ,loosing your capital or worse , your will to trade

Fear Ego Hope
