All That I’ve Learned in 7+ Years of Trading — Q&A
Q: What matters more, strategy or risk management?
A: Risk management. A bad strategy with good risk survives; a good strategy with bad risk dies.
Q: Do professional traders still lose trades?
A: Yes. Losses are normal. The goal is controlled losses, not avoiding them.
Q: Is there a holy grail strategy?
A: No. Consistent execution beats any indicator or setup.
Q: Why do most traders fail?
A: They overtrade, overrisk, and break rules under emotions.
Q: What’s the biggest mindset shift?
A: Stop trying to be right. Focus on being disciplined.
Q: How important is patience?
A: It’s an edge. Waiting for quality setups makes more money than constant action.
Q: Should I trust coins or narratives?
A: Never. Trust your plan, not the market story.
Q: What separates pros from beginners?
A: Pros follow rules on bad days. Beginners follow emotions.
Q: What’s real success in trading?
A: Survival first, consistency second, profits last.
Q: One final lesson?
A: If you can protect capital, the market will eventually reward you.
