[The truth is: trading is a get-rich-slow scheme]
You’re probably thinking:
“Then what’s the point of being a trader?”
“No way. I want to make fast money so I can quit my job.”
“But I’ve heard of traders taking a few thousand dollars and turning it into millions.”
Yes, it’s possible to make big returns from trading in a short period.
How?
All you need to do is risk all your capital on one trade.
And if you get a 1-to-1 risk-to-reward ratio, you’ve just doubled your account.
So, what’s the catch?
It’s not sustainable.
Because if you encounter a single loss, that’s the end of your account.
So, how should you approach trading?
As a get-rich-slow scheme.
I know it’s not sexy.
But if you stick with it long enough, it’s possible to grow your account to 7-figures (and beyond).
Here’s how…
– Let’s say you have a $5,000 trading account
– You contribute $5,000 to your account each year
– You earn an average of 20% a year
Now if you do this consistently for 30 years, do you know how much money you’ll have?
$8,278,170.
Yes, you see that right, $8,278,170.
In other words, when you think long-term, the sky is the limit.
Unfortunately, most traders are fixated on the now that they miss the big picture.
Don’t be one of them.

[You can’t make money every day from trading if you don’t have this one thing…]
Let’s play a game…
– If you toss a coin and it comes up heads, you win $2
– If you toss a coin and it comes up tails, you lose $1
– You can only toss the coin once a day
Now let me ask you…
Do you think you can make money every day from this coin toss?
Of course not.
Because on any day, there’s a 50% chance you either get head or tail—and if it comes up tail, you’ll lose $1.
But what if you can toss the coin 1,000 times per day? How would things change?
Let’s see…
If you toss a coin 1,000 times, you’ll likely get around 500 heads and 500 tails.
(Every time it comes up heads, you win $2. If it’s tails, you lose $1.)
So if you do the math, you’ll end up with a net gain of $500.
Now let me ask you…
If you had this “special” coin and could toss it 1,000 times per day, do you think you can make money every day from tossing this coin?
Yes!
So, what’s the lesson here?
The frequency of your coin toss matters.
You might be wondering:
“What has this got to do with trading?”
Everything!
Because if you want to make money every day from trading, your frequency of trades plays a huge role.
That’s because the more trades you can do within a short period of time, the faster the law of large numbers can work in your favour (think of the coin toss example).
Good trading
Your trading entry is not everything!
Don’t forget:
Risk management
Trade management
Position sizing
Mental capital
Context
Exits

[Have another source of income to tide over the tough times in trading]
Here’s the truth:
No matter how good you are as a trader, you’ll encounter losing streaks, losing weeks, and possibly even losing years.
If you do not prepare for it, you’ll face difficulties putting food on the table, paying your bills, etc.
And in such scenarios, it’s difficult to make good trading decisions because you’re trading with money you can’t afford to lose.
You’ll average into your losses hoping to make it back quickly or widen your stop loss so you don’t lose your money.
So what can you do about it?
Well, that’s where having another source of income helps.
It could be having a job, an online business, affiliate marketing, etc.—the more sources you have, the better.
Here are some ideas you can think about:
– Affiliate marketing (recommend products & services you believe in and get paid for it)
– Coaching program
– Online course
– Earn advertising fees (from YouTube, Google, etc.)
Now, building multiple sources of income is like digging a well.
You want to focus on digging a well till water comes up before you move on and dig another well.
Otherwise, if you dig many wells at once, you’ll end up with no water because you didn’t dig deep enough.
And it’s the same thing for building multiple sources of income.

Trading will not make you rich.
At least not next week, month, or year.
But if you persevere, protect your downside, and compound your returns—you will make it.

[Here’s why you need proper risk management in trading]
Imagine:
There are two traders, John and Sally.
They both start with a $1,000 account
John is an aggressive trader and he risks $250 on each trade.
Sally is a conservative trader and she risks $20 on each trade.
Both adopt a trading strategy that wins 50% of the time with an average of 1:2 risk to reward.
Over the next 8 trades, the outcomes are Lose Lose Lose Lose Win Win Win Win.
Here’s the outcome for John:
-$250 -$250 -$250 -$250 = BLOW UP
Here’s the outcome for Sally:
-$20 -$20 -$20 -$20 +$40 +$40 +$40 +$40 = +$80
Do you see the power of risk management?
So here’s the deal:
As a trader, you’ll encounter losses regularly.
But with proper risk management, you can contain these losses till it feels like an “ant bite”.
Professional traders:
Manage risk
Stay humble
Trade with an edge
Continuously improve Winning rate
Know they can be wrong
Focus on what they do best
Never let ego get in the way
Know when to stay out of the markets
[Consistent actions lead to consistent results]
I remembered my first trading system.
It was using Bollinger Bands—buy when the price is at the lower band and sell when it’s at the upper band.
Using this approach, I had 3 winning trades in a row!
I thought to myself…
“This is it!”
“This is wive life-changing money.”
“I can’t tell anyone less they copy what I’m doing.”
How naive.
Because the next 5 trades were losers!
So I concluded this trading strategy doesn’t work and look for something better.
Then, I chanced upon harmonic patterns.
(Basically, you use tools like Fibonacci retracements and extensions to draw patterns like Crab, Bat, Duck, Dinosaur, etc. as they’re supposed to predict market turning points.)
I spent 6 months learning how to draw these patterns.
As you can tell, I’m a slow learner.
And guess what?
The same thing happened!
I had a few winning trades followed by a series of losses.
Again the voice in my head said…
“This trading strategy doesn’t work. Let’s look for something else.”
So I went around searching for the holy grail.
I’ve tried different indicators, chart patterns, volume profiles, etc.
And the results were similar.
At this point, I’m starting to doubt myself.
I have questions like…
“Why does this always happen?”
“Why am I not getting consistent results in my trading?”
“Why do I make money at the start only to lose it all again?”
Now, do you know what I realized?
It’s me.
The problem lies in me.
That’s because I was hopping from one trading strategy to the next.
My actions were inconsistent. And because my actions were inconsistent, I got inconsistent results. Like duh!
So the bottom line is this…
If you want to be a consistent trader, then you must have a set of consistent actions.
Find a proven trading system that works, and follow the rules day in and out. If you can, consistent profitability is not far away.

If trading is 80% psychology, then monks will rule the world. Instead, it's a combination of math, logic, and psychology.
