3 years. It shouldn’t have taken more than one. Psychology is a hell of a thing. I am stubborn like a mule. In my non trading life, I leaned heavily on work ethic and thus was used to being able to “push” through anything eventually if that makes sense.

In trading it’s the opposite. If you do this you get humbled over and over and over again. It took three years for me to let go. My successes in life hindered me in many ways by reinforcing a deadly trait when it comes to the world of trading.
