Foresight News reports that the 'God Fish' stated, "Every trade that involves buying more as prices rise is essentially not about trading in the market, but about trading one's self-worth. Increasing positions is not due to new insights about the market, but because we need greater profits to maintain a more grandiose self-illusion. The market becomes a mirror, and what we are obsessed with is not the profits themselves, but the invincible self reflected in the mirror. This is why all advice regarding trading discipline and systems, while correct, is difficult to actually change behavior. Because you cannot fix an existential problem with technical solutions. Ironically, we think we are using money to acquire wealth, but in reality, we are using wealth to obtain an illusory self-identity. From the very beginning, we were destined to be losers in this trade."
