But during the learning process one major thing that you should know is to be careful comparing your trades, that is comparing your trades with someone who is already successful in trading or even comparing your trades amongst yourself. While it may sound like a good thing to do, the danger is that even if you are doing the work to learn, it can build up a lot of doubts about your strategy and your learning pattern, you may begin to think that because you are not seeing results currently, the strategy line that you're learning is not functional when in fact it is.

Without having to think at the same frequency that you would be seeing this, I would say, the idea of having to compare is drastically wrong. It might lead to some realization of what steps one might be taking that lead them to not have profitable trades to learning other strategies used by friends and colleagues to archive some good success rate in trading.

Comparing could create a tensed environment which could lead to competition and that could result in traders not having to do detail analysis before taking trades which and have failed results more often. Seeing it for a learning curve would be much better.

Comparing trades can be a dangerous trap especially for beginners it might feel natural to look at someone else’s results and measure yourself against them but trading is not a level playing field people have different amounts of capital different levels of experience different risk tolerance and even different emotional control so the comparison usually doesn’t make sense.What often happens is that when someone compares too much they start doubting their own strategy even if it’s something solid that just needs time to show results that doubt can push them to abandon their system too early or keep jumping from one strategy to another without ever mastering any of them and in trading inconsistency usually leads to losses.

It’s true that learning from others has value you can study what works for them and maybe take ideas that fit your style but making it a competition or feeling pressured by their wins creates tension and leads to rushed trades with little analysis that usually ends badly.The healthier way is to see trading as a personal journey everyone has a different pace and process if you focus on your own growth and treat mistakes as lessons instead of proof that you’re failing then over time your skill and consistency will grow comparing yourself to your past self is far more productive than comparing to someone else’s highlight reel.
