The biggest gain is being able to see one's own problems from the trades without the premise of loss. Many people's lessons are bought with real money, including mine, but it only opened a small gap.

On October 12th, the big crash happened and I didn't buy the dip again. Fear has once again consumed me. I've been waiting for an even lower point. The news in the market is confusing; yesterday there were rumors that Japan would raise interest rates, and today it says they won't. Various messages are flooding in, and I feel like a small boat in the ocean, tossed about by the winds and waves, lacking direction, not knowing when I'll reach the shore.
