RE: TRADING MINDSET - MANAGING EXPECTATIONS AROUND WINNING AND LOSING

in #psychology7 years ago

I'm not at the level of a trader now, I'm more at the level of a person scrambling to make the rent each month. My original training and field is accounting and my worst, most dreaded subject was finance. I like things black and white and don't like risk I do not have to suffer.

Back in the day I got slightly into stock investing and found I am an expert at losing money. If you wanted to know which stocks were going to tank - just look in my portfolio. This is why I should not be here on steemit. I have the same flip flopping stomach from back in the old days.

I have just recently figured out how to get money out of here and I do it using sbd>>>blocktrades >>>ltc>>>thb. I do not care what good news is happening in ltc, it is guaranteed to drop between the time I move money into it and the time I can get it out. It will then rebound in one hour or one day.

But the upside is the awesome chance of getting my content out to actual people and my enduring hope for the future is also keeping me here.

Glad to see you too on Twitter. I seek positive tweets to rt and my steemers do not like to cooperate! You are on my steeming twitlist, so I will see you there again :)

Hey, thanks for the great comment! I like your honesty about trading. If it’s not for you, then it’s not for you. There’s no point in forcing it.

But you don’t have to be a trader to be here as a content creator on Steemit. Don’t think of your writing and cashing out your reward payments as trading, it’s just part of your business.

Keep doing what you’re doing! 🙂
