"Engaging in daring and romantic adventures with bravado or flamboyance."
This is trading in most Bambi traders minds.
Some of you literally see yourself as some knight in bright shining armour strolling through the village blowing kisses to the local women before you galavant into the mountains to slay a dragon.
It's delusion.
Romanticism in trading is destructive.
Romance is an emotional rollercoaster, is that what you want for your trading?
Not me.
I did, but not anymore.
Not after I realized what works and what doesn't work - and high up on that list of not working is being a swashbuckling trader masquerading as the hero of the financial realm.
Folly, at least in my not so humble opinion.
Best guidance for Bambi traders?
Keep your head down, get the work done, make money, then you've earned the right to brag AND you'll be more respected for it.
