Of course, patience and strategy are very important in trading. We have heard before that practice makes a man successful. But a few days ago, in a lecture by American writer Shivkhera, I heard that only perfect practice makes a man successful. Actually, we need to know the rules of trading correctly. Only then will we succeed.
The first thing is to find is a strategy that you know have the potential of giving you what you want, a strategy tested and verified by someone you trust to be giving his honest opinion. After this, you then need patience to learn and practice such strategy and then implement on demo account before real account. Patience in trading is something needed as long as we remain traders and never a one time something. Surely the patient are always rewarded, that is one beautiful thing about patience.
