Short monologue from a trading-focused YouTube video emphasizing that large losses and negative emotions are unavoidable parts of a trading career; the speaker argues traders must accept emotional discomfort and recognize markets are indifferent to their feelings or plans.
So I just lost like, $20,000 in the span of two minutes. If you want to trade good, and if you want to do this as a career and you want to be consistently profitable over time, you're really going to have to learn to just be at peace with the negative emotions, because the truth is, like, this is going to happen. This has happened so many times throughout my entire, like, five year, six year career that I've been trading. It is still happening now, and it will continue to happen as we go forward. You cannot avoid these situations where, you know, you plan for everything and you're waiting a long time and it just doesn't happen. And, and if there's one thing that you can be sure of is that the market will not care that you feel absolutely terrible. It doesn't care that you've waited for one week or one month for the setup. It doesn't care. It's just going to do its own thing. And whatever you're feeling and whatever you feel like doing is all a product of your own mind. Right? It's nothing to do with the markets.
