I'm reading an article on the Evil Speculator, and something just hits me....
"Being a trader means I am wrong all the time. I don’t need to pretend otherwise, there is no shame in being wrong with such a dynamic as the market. Why should I stand up strong and tell myself and everyone who can read a blog-comment that I’m really right, even though I am losing? I’ll stand up tall and tell you I don’t know a bloody thing. If I was so smart I wouldn’t be here. I’d be a corporate lawyer wondering why there’s only 24 billable hours in a day."
Overall the article is about managing risk, forget about ego, and live to fight another day.
Amazingly, its something I STILL don't know how to do.
Maybe I'll have to step away for a lil while to "punish" myself.
