Before achieving success, you have to go through many failures including stupid mistakes, try to put your case into the problem, are you willing to say unprofitable transactions with people or you? trying to hide it. When you're an expert, you'll get so many supporters and followers, how can you bring out such negative sides? No one is a perfect trader, everyone has a mistake and everyone wants to hide it.
Every trader goes through ups and down and no one just money or say all trades are not profitable as somewhere they do incurred losses as well . Only thing it depends some are ready to admit it and other might not be able to say it .
