So, let's air it out. What was the most idiotic, unhinged, completely delusional thing you truly believed about trading when you were a rookie?

Everyone really that is into trading have such weird believe which never turned out to be so. As for me, I knew something so profitable like this and life changing opportunity can’t be that easy and I needed to focus and learn very well to become a profitable trader. One thing I had believe in was that I won’t take much time, not taking up to two years to become profitable.

But after studying well and had to be trading actively, using proper risk management also, I got to realise why people take longer time to become profitable in trading. It is not easy even though the successful traders all claimed they had passed through this stage once before becoming profitable. I am not seeing it as a must for me, I am not rushing into it like before and don’t mind how long it will take to become profitable. If it happens, so be it and if it doesn’t happen, I should on to my other sources while not risking too much into trading.
