As you can probably imagine, this was a difficult time for me. I was trying to work out how to make money consistently. It was the consistency that seemed so hard to find. I was having a regular experience of making money, what was killing me were my losses. It seemed that every time I got ahead by 5-6000 over a period of a week or two, I would lose it all and a few thousand more in the space of a couple of days. At the time I was too unhappy with my performance to be willing to spend any time analyzing my results. If I had I would have discovered that during this period all I needed to do to go from a loss of 61,620 to a small profit would have been to avoid just 10 trading days. Those 10 days cost me a total of 69,169! At the end of this period I was so frustrated, fed up and stuck that I decided to quit trading and return to a more secure career. It only took me a few weeks to abandon this plan and return to trading. I felt sure that I had the raw talent to become a consistently successful trader, what I needed, I reasoned, was some support. Support to stop me having the huge losing days that were crippling me financially. |
