I really wish you the best of luck as a trader, we have talked a few times and I get the impression you are a great guy. Keep your head up. One of the most difficult issues for me has always been the money aspect, growing up I lived on potato soup to the extent that I get sick eating a potato now. So money, losing it, is always something that has the potential to freak me out. However to get to the point where you are a trader you really have to loose the money focus. You cant think of money and trade, it doesnt work. This is such a cliche to say, but focus on the process. Focus on your fibs, your breakouts..whatever works for you and you trust. Become and expert in that. The last thing you should worry about as a trader is the money. Think of a top surgeon. He is not there for money, he enjoys the process and because of that he is well paid. Think what would happen to you if you where under the knife with a surgeon and all he could think about was that you are his rent check or whatever..I doubt that would be a good surgeon. Here is a quote.

"Your mind is a sacred enclosure into which nothing harmful can enter except by your permission"
-Ralf Waldo Emerson

Keep your head up and have the courage to keep your dreams big.
