Never rarely sometimes always
That is the typical cycle of breaking your own discipline in trading rules. First you swear to yourself you would never run a stop. Than it starts out you rarely do it anyway and are very upset about it. Soon rarely becomes sometimes. And when sometimes turns into always you are devastated on the ground not knowing how you ended up here with all these good intentions. This can go on with all sorts of trading rules broken for years. Many traders feel they are insane and desperation of the higher degree sets in. Not only a lot of money is lost, but self confidence and self worth are at such low grounds that it can affect all aspects of a trader’s life. Most never recover from the deep holes they dug for themselves. Never rarely sometimes always.

Never rarely sometimes always
Without a particular strong willingness of self abuse there is no way to progress becoming a consistent trader with outstanding results. Most often cycles overlay cycles. Like the next round would be promising yourself once moving from paper trading to real money exposure, you will not violate your rules. But still, you can’t keep your own promises . The next”white lie” to yourself will occur once you are trading true large size in the market. You promise yourself to never deviate from your system. Unfortunately, it is exactly the opposite. The bigger the stress the more you will rely on intuitive behavior in a counter intuitive environment. The results are devastating.
One of the problems is, that these aspects of this profession are rarely talked about in educational materials. Consequently, these obstacles are harder to overcome by the individual trader who thinks this is just his or her personal fault and shortcoming. Little is talked about this being a natural step in a trader’s career. Almost all traders go through such phases before breaking through the crust. It is speculated that many who try to make their luck in this career give up just shortly before success would set in due to the lack of a few informational pieces alongside their struggles like the one mentioned.
