Born To Trade:
" Most traders aren’t battling the market
You’re battling the childhood version of you that never felt secure
Read that again slowly
Because for a lot of you, trading isn’t a skill
it’s an unresolved wound
Let me expose the parts you’ll deny:
1️⃣ You don’t want profits, you want validation
Every loss feels personal
Every win feels like finally I’m worthy
That’s not trading
That’s trauma
2️⃣ You don’t chase setups, you chase the feeling of control you never had growing up
The market becomes the only place where you believe you can fix your life in one trade
That’s why you over-leverage
That’s why you force trades
That’s why you can’t walk away
You’re not trading charts
You’re trading emotions you buried
3️⃣ You don’t fear losing money, you fear feeling like a failure again
Losses don’t hurt financially
they hurt psychologically
You don’t blow accounts because you’re stupid
You blow accounts because pain feels familiar
4️⃣ You don’t lack discipline, you lack self-respect
If you respected yourself,
you wouldn’t gamble your future every week
Let that sink in
5️⃣ You don’t study the markets, you study other traders
Because deep down, you’re comparing your entire existence
to people you’ve never met
Your strategy isn’t the problem
Your identity is
6️⃣ You’re not addicted to trading, you’re addicted to escaping your reality
Every trade is anesthesia
Every session is a distraction
Every loss is punishment you think you deserve
This is deeper than candlesticks."
