I tallied my blunders in July, that gets me figured, trading for living vs. working for living.
July was not good to me, the market did not trend, just fluctuated with huge volatility.
Working for a big corporate, is relatively easy for someone with no aspirations to climb up the ladder. Do the job, don't make a mistake and that is pretty much it. Not too much stress these days, because I have been doing the same job for so long, my tasks are pretty much 2nd nature to me.
Trading for me is new and exciting, big wins, big losses. I need to pay so much attention because I am still very new to it and can't understand everything at once. It takes a lot of concentrations to make a trade. Just like when I bowled, I strike from time to time, but if I don't concentrate, the bowling ball is going to the gutter, but I remember the time when I don't need to think so much to make a basket, I was so much into the game, I knew where the ball will go before it leaves my hands.
It is good that I have not lose my pants on trading yet. I don't want to give up because this is my way out and I have decided to make it work.
I hope someone out there appreciate my candor and they will thank me later.
