"If you do your part of the deal you will shine"... That's exciting to think about. I had to read that two times, that's really motivating advice. Thank you To be honest though, I want to work at a corporate level job just to experience it, meet ...

What was your "holy grail"?

Cool, I recognize Anton Kreil from Million Dollar Traders. Well, like what he said. He happened to be lucky as a student when Goldman was doing one of their "milk runs" and came across Anton. Anton said that he provided a track record, which showed ...

What was your "holy grail"?

No, I haven't the slightest clue what the insurance industry really did to generate profits. It wasn't until my professor explained to me about the concept of 'premiums' when it hit me. Yes you are definitely right, society doesn't teach how to ...

What was your "holy grail"?

Thousands of hours brother. Thanks for your input! I just feel like when it’s in the world of finance, lots of students my age have absolutely no idea what they are even talking about, so naturally interviewers are used to reading bullcrap. I guess ...

What was your "holy grail"?

Hi Smikester, thank you for sharing. Theres one thing I learned from my peers. They told me to be confident in my resume and interviews but you DON’T want to sound cocky. When a person looking at my resume reads something along the lines of, “I’m a ...

What was your "holy grail"?

Hi Kxeroo, thanks for sharing. That’s very interesting and I’m the same way. I find it so crazy how whenever I see a chart of any kind, I’m always analyzing it and thinking, “oh ya if this was a real chart, I’d be looking to sell right here at this ...

What was your "holy grail"?

Hey Redeflect, good to talk to you again. Hmmm, no. Getting a job at a bank sounds really awesome but that’s not my ultimate goal. Maybe I’ll reach that point someday? It’s more competetive for me since I’m not Ivy League. So, I am dual majoring in ...

What was your "holy grail"?

Hey guys. So I am currently working on my resume to hand into potential employers... (being at university provides me a lot of awesome opportunities). Of course, I want to include my trading endeavors! How would you go about listing "trading" or ...

What was your "holy grail"?

A little confused about something. You hear people say that the more the mass is exposed to a certain strategy, pattern, or whatever, then the more obsolete it will be in the near future. But there are other people who say that these same patterns ...

What was your "holy grail"?

Yeah man, it's been a while. It's just after a certain amount of time allocated towards the foreign exchange market... you really begin to develop a level of self-awareness where you understand what needs to be done and what needs to be worked on. ...

What was your "holy grail"?

Hey there guys it's been a while since I've been on ForexFactory but I saw these notifications in my email and decided to contribute. My idea of "diversification" is the 30-40 pairs I scan through everyday... I then pick the HIGHEST PROBABILITY ...

What was your "holy grail"?

If I am being honest, once you become profitable there is no sense of fulfillment... at least not for me. I think I'm just glad I survived this journey and am not in financial ruin. It's not like you're in "overdrive" happiness once you actually ...

Are we all sociopaths?

It's the hardest hurdle because a lot of them will NEVER get pass this stage. Having complete control of your emotions is not exactly an easy task to accomplish since it is going against the very grain of human nature.

Are we all sociopaths?

Very true, I completely agree with you. I guess this is the reason why it takes years and years for some individuals to become profitable because they jump back and forth to different systems, instead of developing a sound system that adheres to ...

Are we all sociopaths?

Haha interesting, do you believe that therapy is bullshit? (You can bash the hell out of the concept of therapy if you want, I have no opinion on it) Maybe you are boasting and saying that because you are one of the few who have a strong mindset. A ...

Are we all sociopaths?

Man... where did I say it was desirable at all? Lol I have a normal social life, I don't know about you. Originally, I was asking if people feel like they are developing traits of a sociopath at all because of trading... it is a very logical ...

Are we all sociopaths?

Being a sociopath does not really mean you "have no emotions" but rather you are in complete, 100% control of your emotions. Meaning when you feel angry, sad, happy, frustrated, or whatever, you can easily shove it down and tune it out whenever you ...

Are we all sociopaths?

No, we don't. You are completely right. Maybe people use a demo account for the wrong reasons? When I opened a demo account, it was more along the lines of figuring out where all the buttons are and understanding how the platform works. I didn't do ...

Wanna know why a majority of traders lose?

Even if you open a demo account with a realistic amount like let's say $2,000, the emotions are still not there. You aren't scared of entering trades, you will open trades whenever you have a "hunch" and that will NOT transfer over to live trading. ...
