just remember when you feel like giving up on chasin gains on wall st:
some dude out there is putting in 10 times more effort than you on an endeavor that will net him 100 times less money than even the most average day on the market.
like speedrunners, they put in massive amounts of effort to just get their name on a leaderboard on a website run by nitpicking jannies. PIXELS ON A SCREEN ON A WEBSITE RAN BY CHILD GROOMING CREEPS.
bring this analogy to the markets, years and years of experience always amounts to something, as long as you are sometimes putting in autistic speedrunner amounts of effort.
And if ya fail, who cares? pick yoself back up, learn from every single mistake and if ya have a strong foundation of risk management, you won't go broke.
learn fail learn repeat, can't lose unless ya quit.
just think of it as you'll get a massive payout for your effort someday, and that'll pay for all your broke-ass years. I remember a dude from market wizards that said he got all of his yearly gains in about 5 days spread out across the year, but those 5 days wouldn't be there without the effort put in across the ENTIRE year.
heck I give myself 4 years before I move along, already missed one payout period won't miss the next. and the way I'm progressing with my futures trading strat (4 months in) I could be on track to start making consistent gains within a year. Then once consistent gains are reached, I switch on bi weekly scaling, then its 10 weeks to a million bro, if not less. but can't do that without the foundation laid by getting rekt by the market on the easiest of easy trending days (this last friday) but I'm over it, I learned my lesson, I pick myself up and get back to work. This shit pays off, you just gotta get wrung through the grinder a few dozen or so times
have fun out there, will ya
you gots this bros
I believe in all y'alls as much as I believe in myself
