    Lord Krishna said that in Bhagavad Gita centuries before Ben Crowe. "To action alone hast thou a right and never at all to its fruits; let not the fruits of action be thy motive; neither let there be in thee any attachment to inaction."

    Wow, such a good video and great points. I definitely focus way too much on PNL. I pretty much refuse to take a losing day and to stop trading for that day if I'm in the red. Definitely need to focus on the long-term strategy and progress. Thanks for this!

  • @SF-fb6lv

    It seems like focusing exclusively on P/L is like looking at your feet the whole time during a hike; when you should be focusing on the path to your destination.

    Awesome video…I just subscribed and will watch every video. Started trading 9 months ago and wow do I obsess over PnL! Yesterday was my first 1k profit day and today I profited 32.00. It definitely bummed me out but this video has shown me a better way and to stay positive. TY!

      You have nothing to be sad about with a $1,000 and then a. $32- day! It’s so easy after a great day or a great morning to give it all back the next day or two. Stay focused on the process and risk management and you will be golden.

    Good clip and thank you. For me, the down cycles, excess volatility, and harder parts of say being more of a pure long market participant, really helps develop the mental toughness needed to be in the market. Unlike most jobs, like painting a fence, writing a program, driving a bus, or writing a document, being an accountant where life is more deterministic, the market is a place where uncertainty and the future dominate the expectation set since the market trades on the future - which is uncertain. Accepting that and adapting to an ever changing information set and flowing with it helps prevent wanting to control the uncontrollable....

    • @SacredCASHcow
      @SacredCASHcow Рік тому

      that might be true but you also should be confident due to succeeding more than you're failing. if you're constantly having these losing streaks it could be that your psychology is fine but your system is just bad

    • @austinshum2561
      @austinshum2561 Рік тому

      @@SacredCASHcow You must have a good control of both. Having a good system while having the psychology to apply that strategy and differentiating between losses/wins per day and losses/wins over a month, over 6 months, over a year is essential to succeeding in this type of business.

    - bad pnl days are good because the market shows a flaw in your system that you can improve and increase the expected value of your bobble head. it is increasing your longterm pnl, it is making you more adaptable across markets, making you a more resilent trader. making you a more mentally robust trader
    - don't compare yourself with others, just focus on getting better every single day
    - view adversity as an opportunity to get better
