"The reason most traders fail is that they never enter a path of expertise development. It is rare to find training programs of any quality and substance at proprietary trading firms; one finds mentorship at investment banks and some hedge funds, but this is very hit or miss depending upon the commitment of the mentor and his/her skill in imparting skills and structuring a learning process. The independent trader has even fewer resources to generate and sustain an accelerated learning curve. There is much more to acquiring expertise than keeping a journal and trying to follow a simple plan."
Just wanted to keep this going. I just reread Steenbargers Enhancing Trader Performance over the weekend and wanted others experiences regarding the things they've done that have kept them on an accelerated learning curve.
Some of the things suggested conceptually, and not specifically about trading, are things I find pretty difficult to try and put into a practical trading context.
