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?
I believed that I could be a master in trading in just six months, and although I learned a lot in six months, I quickly figured out that there was more to learn, that in fact, learning to trade properly required you to commit for an extended period to learning. Many people do not stick around long enough for that, that is, to learn to trade, because they do not give themselves enough time.

They are holding on to the delusion that they can become masters or superior traders in just six months. If you are new to trading, give yourself time.
