Short video monologue by Kardec Trader (uploaded May 22, 2023) warning viewers that day trading is extremely difficult primarily because traders must battle their own psychological and emotional weaknesses. The speaker urges unprepared traders to quit, arguing that personal flaws manifest directly in trading performance and P&L.
Trading is very difficult. If you are not ready to go through hell, just stop day trading. Just stop. I will be the first to tell you. Just quit. Leave. Stop. Why? Because day trading is so, so difficult. Because not only are you competing with the market, you're competing with something bigger than the market and that's yourself. You're fighting with your inner demons. All the inner problems you have, they show out in day trading. When you are trading, you are putting positions on. You start realizing all your flaws, all your emotional battles and struggles. It all starts showing up on the screen, on your P and L and in your trading.
