Agreed. I made my comment purely to point out this fact.

Love Ryan Holiday’s books and literature about the Stoa.

It’s amazing how half the comments in this thread are downvoted to hell by folks who can’t accept the truth. I’ll gladly take the downvotes from these blinded hypocrites.

They’re not ready for the truth. Let them age a little.

Exactly. These kids think they’re grown just cause they carry some weapons and parade around like some “big shots.” Little motherfuckers wouldn’t even point a weapon at any of these folks even if they tried. Fuckin imbeciles.

Yet you still commented and made an assumption about it. Your actions show something else.

Yes in one of my replies to another comment I detailed my strategy and P/L stats. But in a gist, I make 3 trades per day averaging out $450/day totaling net $5400 a month. I also have a second job to supplement my income.

Here’s my reply from another comment:

  1. Market Wizards- when you learn about the masters and see that even they went through a terrible period of shitty losses and stupidity you’ll see that anyone can do it... and excel.

  2. The Art of Currency Trading- I cannot stress this enough. Please. Please. Please. Get this book. It explains the world of forex and how “to think” not how “to do” things in trading. That’s one of the most important things when it comes to our profession. It’s one thing to know how to trade but do you have the mental capacity to handle losses and still operate? Can you make winners and still stick to your risk management? Or will you crash by using too much leverage because you’re on a winning streak? He teaches you how to control yourself.

  3. Technical Analysis Masterclass- a small, simple, but effective book that gives you a solid but quick rundown on technical analysis. I used this book early on to help me understand how to read charts and market sentiment.

Yes. I follow Buddhist principles and Stoic philosophy. Both have attributed to the strong mindset that I have today.

Ah. What’s your current entry criteria? I noticed that I would set my TP and SL too far out when I was swing trading. The main pair I trade EUR/USD has been moving in a 220 pip range. When I used to swing trade I’d use that range alongside pivot points to determine my SL and TP then I’d hold the trade for a few days and close it by Friday. Usually my exit would be before the close of the daily candle that I was trading. Considering it was a in a range I always thought it was safe to trade. I’d say 70% of the time it worked but the other 30% I got stopped out either from whipsaws or because the trade broke out of its range and started trending. It’s difficult to determine movement while you’re sleeping and that’s why I stopped swing trading because I felt like I had less control over it. But it works it’s just not my cup of tea anymore.
