About 12 years ago I started to be very interested in stock trading. I started with paper money and I was very good at it as well. The reason I was very good at it was that almost all stocks went up. There was no way to loose money. I switched to real money. At the beginning I made profits. Once the financial crises triggered, all went down the hill. Not only stock market turned against me, my emotions started to take over. That’s why I stopped trading. I had sleepless nights. All I can say, we are all humans and humans have emotions. In good markets going only up, everyone is a good trader. But when market turns against you, it turns against 99% of traders. That’s why I became long therm investor.
