$53,400 gone in a matter of minutes. It sounds a bit far-fetched doesn’t it? Unfortunately, it’s not and is the reality of the situation for a very courageous member of my private trading community. This past week a screen shot showed up in our private chatroom showing their results and it left us all shocked and saddened. How could this happen? What was he trading? Does he plan to keep on trading? There are several very important lessons to be learned. I have nothing but respect for this person as his courage has opened up the flood gates of teachable moments and bigtime reminders for those of us who have been in the market for years. Trading is no joke and if you aren’t careful, absolute disasters can happen. Let’s talk about it and do some learning!
