Ten years have passed, and I have been repeating the same lesson.
Greed and comparison are like two demons, never truly leaving. They are just waiting—for the next big PNL screenshot—and then whisper in your ear: "Why not you?"
I cannot change the past. Those accounts that blew up, sleepless nights—they have already happened. But I finally understand that these are not failures, but tuition fees.
Real trading is not about chasing rises and falling prices, nor about envying how much others are making. It’s about discipline, about recognizing your own risk tolerance, and about learning to say "no" when greed is at its peak.
There are no shortcuts on this path. But every time you resist temptation and stick to your trading plan, you are winning—winning by being true to yourself.

Ten years of tuition... sounds easy, but who understands those nights of liquidation?

Ten years of tuition fees, that's so true. It's easy to understand but hard to do.

Hmm... ten years and still repeating myself, it's a bit heart-wrenching. But on the other hand, who hasn't gone through the same?
