I Thought I Could Beat the Market—Until It Broke Me 💔
Let’s be real…
If you’re staring at charts thinking, “This is the key level… price must reverse here”—
You’re building a prison for your own portfolio.
I know because I did it. For years, I chased the holy grail:
✅ Back-tested every strategy
✅ Drew a million lines
✅ Trusted my zones like gospel
Result? The market humbled me over and over.
Here’s the truth that set me free:
👉 You can’t predict the market. You can only flow with it.
Once I stopped trying to be a prophet and started being a student, everything changed.
Now, my focus is simple:
1️⃣ Listen: What’s price doing right now?
2️⃣ Plan: Where’s my stop? Where’s my target?
3️⃣ Manage: Can I afford this risk?
No ego. No magic. Just price, risk, and reaction.
The market doesn’t care about your projections—it has its own flow.
Your job? Recognize it. Respect it. Ride it.
