Thanks Nr.
As we all know nothing is fool proof and I had tried LTH, tip sheets, penny shares, big companies, read books etc etc.
I eventually turned to trading out of it was the only thing I had not tried!
I day traded for 3 years but not successfully enough and I was hamstrung by the fear and greed emotional pull which is magnified when you are leveredge up and "have to" close your postion overnight.
But it taught me a lot of the mechanics and more importantly me (in this case).
Since I have done this now for fun and taken away the pressure of the "day" aspect and only betting relatively now small amounts, I can keep the emotions by and large out of it.
It may be why post so much here... it might just be an emotional release from the trading? Who knows? But your rational self assessment of your character suggests you are pretty astute imo.
The reason so many fail in trading and they do, is because they can't let go of their emotional bias so the "system" is blamed rather than the execution.
Anyway, roll on avct. atb.
