    Lack of money is killing you.

    Stop focusing on money.

    Start focusing on:

    – Risk
    – Execution
    – Process

    You trade 10x better when you stop focusing on money.

    The more you lose,

    The more you realize that losing is normal.

    The more you win,

    The more you realize that anyone can win 1 trade.

    The more you trade,

    The more you realize that trading is a war of patience.

    That’s trading experience.

    Successful trading is:

    – Probability, not certainty
    – Edges, not magic formulas
    – Waiting, not trading all the time
    – Calculated risks, not stupid risks
    – Self-discipline, not random trades
    – Long term goals, not an online lottery

    Stop wasting time.

    Most traders are afraid to lose because they don’t think in probabilities.

    1 loss and they get angry.

    2-3 losses and they change system.

    10-20 losses and they give up.

    Thinking in probabilities is the best way to control your trading emotions.
