This will be my random collection of trading related experiences. I am a recovering forex trader and I haven't looked at a currency pair or tried to interpret fundamentals for 3 months now.
My goals are pretty much the same as most other traders. The lessons thus far have been a round house kung-fu bitchslap to the head, however Im still standing, albeit with 2 swollen black eyes, busted nose and a limp.
I thought it would be interesting to keep track of this journey. Something I can look back on as time goes by. I call it my quest into the unknown because this is my 3rd major career change, started out as a software developer, then became toolmaker and now doing trading. From certainty and confidence in the outcomes of my previous professions to uncertainty and randomness in trading. The mental trauma of re-adjusting my attitude and expectations have been my biggest hurdle :sarcastic: .
