I suck at trading these posts help me remember why I don't do it anymore... i am certain there is a frame of mind perfectly suited for trading, just not mine.
The most successful traders are those who are not quite of this world. And I wonder how much the outrageous successes have burnt through before they became financial ice men or women. As one Hollywood exec said, if they'd greenlit all the films they'd said no to and blew off the ones they said yes to they'd probably have ended up in the exact same position.
