🤑I Was Obsessed With Winning Every Trade – Until I Realized That’s Not the Game 😅

Let’s be real… I used to think being a good trader meant winning every trade.

One red candle and I'd spiral—doubting my system, overanalyzing, revenge trading.

It took time (and losses) to finally understand:

“You’re not supposed to win every trade. You’re supposed to win the game.”

How Not to Win Every Trade… But Master the Art of Winning

That line changed everything for me.

Because chasing perfection in this game is the fastest way to burn out and blow up your account.

Now? I focus on one thing: edge + execution.

I don’t care if I lose 4 out of 10 trades—if the 5th and 6th are clean, controlled, and managed well, I’m green.

The Candlestick That Taught Me This: The Shooting Star

I remember shorting a shooting star at resistance once, thinking I caught the top.

It reversed… for a second. Then it pumped.

I didn’t wait for confirmation. I just wanted to be right—and paid the price.

That day taught me something deep:

Even the cleanest pattern fails. The win comes from how you handle it.

Cut it quick, no emotions, move on. That’s what pros do.
