I resist getting on my soapbox these days
Talking about "Timing the market" is boring as most want to declare that it can’t be done but never explain why. I'll ramble on about "Selling" & how important it is when it comes to profitability usually misses the mark. When you raise the subject of being "Disciplined" most don't really understand because it conflicts with their belief system. Not being "Vigilant" when handling a portfolio can be a wealth hazard.

Important topics with regards to trading profitably
1. Timing the market
2. Selling
3. Being disciplined
4. Being vigilant
5. Following a Trading Plan
6. Being in charge of your emotions
7. Understanding the next step when you are wrong
8. Why having the correct mindset is important when it comes to trading

Traders we are all different
Traders are not just technical analysts, they have trading skills but some technical analysts never trade, they just fuss over coding formulas & strategies. As traders we are all different, I'm a trend trader & I trade my arse off.
