Yesterday, while looking around old folders on my PC, I came across a txt file named SHAME.txt that a long time ago used to be dead center on my desktop. I made it while I was learning to trade and kept making the same dumb mistakes over and over again and I was desperately trying to stop making them đI think it's funny but some of you might find some good info in there. Here are the contents:
CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONS
PATIENCE IS THE KEY
TRUST YOUR GUT, IF IT SAYS CLOSE JUST CLOSE
POSITION SIZING (DONT ALL IN)
DONT TRADE OUT OF DESPERATION
DONT SHORT AN UPTREND
CUT YOU LOSSES
DONT REVENGE TRADE JUST ACCEPT THE DAMN LOSS
DONT SHORT A BULL MARKET
LOOK FOR OPTIMAL ENTRIES
DONT FOMO
NO GREED
TIGHT STOP LOSSES
TAKE PROFIT
DONT OVERTRADE
ONCE YOUR OUT YOUR OUT DONT JUMP RIGHT BACK IN FOR A QUICK SCALP
AVOID HEAVY VOLATILITY
DON'T GO AGAINST THE TA
WITHDRAW PROFIT OCCASIONALLY SO YOURE NEVER AT A TOTAL LOSS
