"I Don't Know Why It's Easier to Lose Money Than to Make It in Trading… I Thought It Would Be a Quick Way to Get Rich."
Let's be honest: most of us enter trading thinking we'll double our money overnight. I thought so too. So what happens?
We realize that the market doesn't care about our dreams.
Why It Feels This Way
Trading feels like an easy money game at first because profits come randomly... and losses accumulate quietly. The truth is:
Without a plan, the market will drain you.
Without risk management, even your best setups can turn against you.
Chasing "quick riches" is the fastest way to go broke.
Here’s the Reality:
✔️ Trading is a skill, not a shortcut.
✔️ Smart money takes advantage of impulsive traders.
✔️ Consistency beats emotion every time.
Your Roadmap to Change This Narrative:
1️⃣ Stop chasing every move.
2️⃣ Stick to 1-2 proven setups that you truly understand.
3️⃣ Risk little, aim for steady growth.
4️⃣ Keep a journal of every trade: winners and losers.
5️⃣ Accept that wealth is built gradually, not instantly.
I promise you: when you shift from trying to get rich quickly to trading like a professional, the market will start to respect your money.
Trade with discipline, not with dreams.
