I decided to continue my journal here on futures.io (formerly BMT). Hopefully both of us can learn from it.
I've been trading for about two years without much monetary success but i learnt a great deal about myself and i love it all the way.
I tried many instruments from forex to options, trading them many ways, seeking advice from "gurus" to high priced chat rooms. At one point I had a server crunching numbers and running trades almost 24/7 but when the conditions suddenly changed to the unexpected.. well my account changed with them. Many lessons with a couple sleepless nights but I'm done searching for THE secret, there isn't any. Trading is an art! At least for me anyway.
Today I believe in order the be successful in this business you have to think about people. You also have to have a vast amount of discipline and patience and of course you have to keep yourself in check. I don't know any other way to do this (you are free to enlighten me) so in 2014 I went back to SIM trading to learn about my emotions and build solid fundamentals.
I will do this NAVY style and tackle one obstacle at a time or One evolution at a time! :boxing:
