Being a day trader is awesome! There are so many opportunities and worthwhile money making strategies that can be developed to build wealth and establish streams of income. However, in the spirit of transparency, you can not (and should not) expect to make money every single day as a day trader. There are going to be those moments where your strategy that, most times, makes you money fails to do so. There will also be those times where you are literally right on the edge of a potentially awesome trade to then have things fall apart on you. For me at least, these are some of the most emotionally difficult times. You see what you believe to be a bright and shiny moment turn into a dark and cloudy mess. What’s my point? As awesome and day trading is, it is also very difficult. It will push your emotions to the max and cause you frustration and heartache. The good news is, if you realize how hard day trading is and how much of a challenge it presents, you’ll be better prepared for those tough moments when they arise. These kind of day trading results are not fun to share publicly, but it is what it is.
