Kardec Trader spent seven years day-trading before feeling genuinely confident. Early wins in 2019 felt like success, but real confidence came around 2022 when he realized a bad week or month doesn't define the year.

Even though I've had success in 2019, I didn't feel that confident or comfortability within myself until maybe 2022. What changed in that? I think for me one thing that changed is when I went back and I paused and I looked at every year I'm like well I've been profitable for seven years. Okay, I'll have a bad month. I know I'm going to have a bad month. I'll have a bad quarter. I have proven time over time that I do come out winning at the end of the year for myself, not for you. So I think that gives you a level of comfortability. Like for example if I go and I trade live tomorrow and I trade terribly for two weeks, okay. In the back of my head I'm like okay, well this two week doesn't determine my whole year. Yes, yes. And I've done it for X amount of years in the past year.
