The Day I Stopped Fighting the Market
here’s what changed...
Let me tell you about a painful lesson that changed my entire trading career…
This was the topic of discussion with a student who recently went through the same thing.
He fell into the trap of thinking that trading is all about being right.
About proving that you’re smarter than the market.
I used to be stuck in the same trap before- sitting at my desk, watching a position move against me.
My ego screaming,
"Hold your ground! The market has to turn around!"
Spoiler alert: The market doesn’t care about your ego.
And after losing to a few ego-driven trades back in the day, the real cost wasn't financial - it was the wake-up call I desperately needed.
See, many traders fall into this trap.
We treat trading like a battle, where every loss feels like a personal defeat.
The problem is that the market isn't your enemy.
It’s something many traders discover after taking our free >>trading quiz<<
It's not out to get you, it's simply a flow of opportunities - some you'll catch, others you'll miss.
You need to stop seeing yourself as a warrior battling the market and start viewing yourself as a surfer riding its waves.
Sometimes you catch a perfect wave, sometimes you wipe out.
But you never blame the ocean.
And that’s when trading became easier.
More profitable.
And honestly? A lot more enjoyable.
With Dedication,
