Awareness

"Trading is all mental. If you have a positive attitude, it’s going to help a lot in trading. It’s not going to make you money, but it’s going to enable you to at least think clearly. You’ll have bumps and bruises along the way. I know I’m going to get another. That’s just how it works. But now I’m at a point where if I get a little bump, that’s fine. You just have to fight your way through. The hardest thing is thinking of it as trading. You’ve got to think about it as a business. How many businesses become profitable after six months? Very few. In this business you have a chance to become profitable after six months. Some of the better guys have even made six figures the first year, but this is not the norm. Think of it as a regimen you have to stick to. It will make you a better trader."
-Electronic Day Traders' Secrets, by Friedfertig and West, p.87
