The Truth of Trading

The market is never short of opportunities; what it lacks is the determination to control one's hands. Respect the cycle when profitable, and face human nature when in loss; the essence of trading is self-gaming.

When the pattern is effective, strike with full force; when the pattern is vague, retreat and observe. So-called enlightenment is merely practicing 'not doing' until it is as decisive as 'doing'.

The stop-loss line is the bottom line; the drawdown line is the lifeline. A trader out of control, no matter how thick their account, will ultimately return to zero.
