Enjoy the process
Today I felt like sharing some of my recent insights on trading.
Here they are: enjoy the process, keep learning.
Let me elaborate a little bit. Becoming a consistently profitable trader is hard, few people are able to achieve this, it requires significant and consistent effort, and it takes time. Given this reality, it is much better, and you will be more effective, and certainly more likely to persist, if you enjoy the process. What to do to actually enjoy it? Well, it is a matter of mindset and attitude isn't it? Surely we should take out the monetary pressure away, while we learn. Trade small size, focus on high quality execution, not on making money.
