JTrader

You spend the first 2 years trying to learn everything, and the next 3 years trying to forget it all so you can trade simply.

Leverage can make a poor man rich and a rich man poor in one afternoon.

You don't have a strategy problem.
You have a "doing what you said you were going to do" problem.

Your expectations are your greatest liability.

To win the game, you must first accept that the game is rigged against your biological instincts.

One year of trading will teach you more about yourself than ten years of therapy.

You don't need to know what happens next to make money.
You just need to know what you will do if X happens.

You win by doing nothing 90% of the time.
In most jobs, doing nothing gets you fired.
In trading, doing nothing gets you paid.

If you can’t trade 1 micro contract, you can’t trade 1 mini.
The math is the same.
The fear is the variable.

Reversals or trend-following entries?

A "perfect" setup can still result in a loss.
That doesn't make it a bad trade.

If you’re in the middle of the pain right now:
Keep going.
The pain is the process.

A "bad" trade that wins is a bigger threat than a "good" trade that loses.

If you see your setup and hesitate, you’re not "being careful."
You’re being a coward.

Friendly reminder:
The trade you skip will run clean.
The trade you chase will reverse instantly.

Regret is rarely about action.
It’s about hesitation that lasted too long.

One habit that massively improved your life?

Size is the #1 account killer.

I declare a year of fearless executions and perfect risk management.
