Description

In this episode, I dive into the trap of judging trades by their results. Sometimes we get rewarded for doing something sloppy, and other times we take a clean, disciplined trade that just doesn’t work out. I talk about why a “good trade” might not be as good as it looks — and why a “bad result” might still be one of your best trades of the week. It’s a simple idea, but once you really understand it, it changes how you look at every trade you take. This is also a key reason for new traders to fail or struggle, tune in for the details.
