Once a trader sees that trading isn’t going to be the easy and it's not the fast way out, there are usually three things that happen:
- He quits
- He takes a riskier approach to trading (larger positions, more trades, gambling mentality)
- He starts system-hopping if he still believes that there must be a trading method out there that can generate those returns.
How do you avoid this?
You start with a solid system like Xard's Trading System and stick with it. Master it and don't mix and match any indicators. Follow the plan until the end.
