To paraphrase, "Trading is 95% perspiration and only 5% inspiration."

 

It kind of goes with: "The harder I work, the luckier I get."

 

 

I have also read...

 

95% of the work is before the order is entered.

 

 

 

edit: that means you can start dreaming as soon as you entered your order !

.

Focusing on the outcome of a single trade as if its outcome mattered, and evaluating each as good or bad,

demonstrates lack of faith in your trading plan. Indulging yourself in such trivial judgments is at best

a distraction from your ultimate goal as a trader - and that is to get your trading into the long run.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.

Information is not knowledge.

 

Albert Einstein

 

Note, information is what people find in forums. Knowledge comes from experience (screen time) and asking the correct questions needed to be answered.

It should be possible to explain the laws of physics to a barmaid.

 

Albert Einstein

 

Note, substitute the word Laws for "rules" and the word physics for "trading".

 

Personal note, to me, the ironic nature of people trying to build a profitable trading system is the fact, they don't even know the "rules" of the trading game to start with. So, how can they expect to be profitable?

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.

 

Albert Einstein

 

Personal note, as it pertains to trading, leave out the word "hope". A trader should know.

Make everything as simple as possible, but not any simpler.

 

Albert Einstein

 

Note, translation for trading means, don't add what not required nor remove what's necessary.

 

Do you think Albert Einstein would use indicators such as MACD, VWAP, RSI, histogram or even volume..

No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.

 

Albert Einstein

 

Note, translation for trading. Take said problem to the "next level". Think outside the box. If what is written in trading books and seminars worked we would all be rich. Think, what type of system is Goldman Sachs utilizing to be profitable 89 out of 90 trading days.

Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole strength and soul can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person.

 

Albert Einstein

 

Personal note, even if someone devotes all of themselves to trading, it does not guarantee mastery of trading, unless that person knows the "rules" of trading first. Then, gets answers to the correct questions that needs to be answered thereafter.

    • It depends. If you have lots of money that you can buy a house without a loan and if you don't have any parents to sponsor then it is a good idea. Otherwise it might be a bad idea depending where in Canada you are heading to. I earned a good middle income in my home country and I migrated to Vancouver 5 years ago at the age of 35. I had to start right from the bottom, lowest of the low.. Now i am finally earning a middle income in Canada but I still cannot afford to buy a one bedroom apartment. Having left behind friends, family and home, most of the times I think it is not worth it.   In short, do not migrate if you already have a good life in your home country and you are happy. Only migrate to Canada if you really have to leave your home country say there is a war or something really bad. Discrimination still exists here and its really tough for newcomers unless you are super rich. Good luck. David Chong, Quora  
    • This is bigger than the internet. Bigger than mobile. Bigger than social media.   While everyone was distracted by stock market fluctuations and political theater…   Most people have NO IDEA what just happened last week with ChatGPT.   Their new memory feature allows ChatGPT to remember EVERYTHING about you across all your conversations.   Think about that for a minute...   While most tech companies have been collecting mere breadcrumbs about you - your likes, your clicks, your browsing history - OpenAI is now collecting the most valuable dataset in human history: your complete psychological profile.   This is Zuckerberg x 5,000.   The more you use ChatGPT, the more it understands you, becoming a supercharged reflection of yourself that improves at an exponential rate.   Are you a regular ChatGPT user?   Consider whether it’s time to turn off the “you can train on my information” feature. To prevent your data from being used for training while still using the memory feature:   Disable Model Training: Navigate to Settings > Data Controls. Toggle off "Improve the model for everyone". Manage Memory Settings: Go to Settings > Personalization > Memory. Here, you can: Turn off memory entirely. Delete specific memories. Use Temporary Chat for sessions that won't be saved or used for training. Now the investment implications…   Why This is Bigger Than You Think Consider this: the relationship between humans and ChatGPT is evolving beyond a mere tool.   People are now treating these AI assistants as friends, confidants, and even romantic partners.   I'm not making this up - there are already documented cases of people ending real human relationships to pursue “connections” with their AI companions.   A viral Instagram meme shows a person going through life with a glowing, featureless humanoid figure - representing ChatGPT - as their companion.   The post has over 1.1 million likes and comments like "Bro ChatGPT is like my best friend. Ain't even ashamed to say it" with 25,000 likes.   But here's where things get really interesting for investors and entrepreneurs...   Three Things to Watch For starters, hardware is the next big thing for the big players.   The iPhone form factor is dead.   It hasn't meaningfully changed in nearly a decade. The next evolution in hardware will be designed specifically to interface with these AI companions.   OpenAI is already working on hardware with Johnny Ive, the legendary designer behind the iPhone and iPod. But you can’t ignore Elon Musk’s edge here.   So what does all of this mean for you?   The companies that control the personal AI relationships will be worth trillions. OpenAI and Elon Musk will have the coziest moats. We're witnessing the birth of a new internet - one built on agents that can communicate with each other across platforms. Google's new agent-to-agent protocol allows AI agents to work together without sharing internal memories or tools. The hardware companies that create the perfect interface for these AI companions will dominate the next decade of technology. And almost nobody is talking about what this means.   My prediction? Within five years, most people will have a personal AI that knows them better than anyone else. And they will interact with it in ways that seem foreign today.   (And, yes, it will almost certainly have dystopian elements.)   In the meantime, the biggest gains won’t come from household names. And, right now, James is seeing a prime opportunity to invest in the most under-the-radar plays in AI…   For dirt cheap. By Chris C.
