Hi Abe

 

I'm a newbie like you, take a look at what I posted for 8 months ago: http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f25/the-most-stupid-tradingday-ever-1454.html

 

I started with $10000, lost a lot :crap:, pumped in another $6000 and at the moment my account is as low as $1000 (it has been lower)

In addition to that I'm paying for different tradingservices (quotes, software), that costs me $100 a month :haha:

I won't even try to guess how much time screentime I've used.

 

But I'm learning alot from this site by reading what other does, I've also read a lot of books - the current book I'm reading "Your Money and Your Brain"

 

Well... I'm still in a good mood and I know I'm getting better, but damn it costs alot of money and a lot of frustrations. The frustrations are getting smaller and my my optimism is growing.

 

The time I read that it's normal to blow up your account I thought yeah yeah... that's because blabla... I'm better than the most, so that couldn't happen to me.

Well it did :doh: , but I've learned a lot by that (risk management, trading psychology, fear, greed, humility) the most important thing i've learned is that's it not easy, I'm still learning, but I'm getting a bit more clever for each hour, who know.. maybe some I can call myself a trader.

 

So don't worry, keep up the spirit and if you're willing to learn (you are otherwise you won't be here) then things will comes to you

 

Thanks Januson. It's so frustrating. I really don't know if I will be able to do it but it is nice to hear that people care.
