Win Or Learn

I realised I learn the most when I’m losing trades.

And trust me, I’ve been losing quite a lot of trades lately.

When I’m on a winning streak, it feels really good, and I believe that everything is perfect. No more learning or improvement required. Just keep on doing what I’m doing.

However, when the losing streak inevitably starts (and they sometimes can be really long and brutal), I start to do a lot more research, fine-tuning my strategies, honing my craft, and maybe even discovering better strategies.

Which makes me an even better trader.

Some of my best insights and revelations had come to me after some brutal losing streaks.

So in many ways, losing makes me a much better trader.

Can’t complain I guess.
