"We're coming out of the shadows"

 

This video is very inspiring and this is my source of strength. I make it a point to listen/watch this video first thing first before I sit and look at the charts. I have included below the transcript of the video to give you more clarity on becoming a trader, a successful trader!

They call us gamblers.

They say we depend on luck.
They claim that no one can beat the market, and we're wasting our time.
This isn't a real job, we should give up our hobby, they say.

But if they only knew...

That we are the masters of risk,

The essence of entrepreneurial spirit,

The liquidity of the economy
We live by our wits, eating what we hunt,

Adapting to the ever-changing jungle landscape, that is the market.

We trade the currency you circulate when you shop.

We trade the companies you work for each day.
We trade the gold on the watch on your wrist.

While you wilt at the sight of failure and loss

We relish adversity.
We are not afraid to take losses

To talk about our losses
To rebound from our losses.

Those are our defining moments.
Discipline and self-awareness are our companions.

We are what you've always wished you could be.

And we're coming out of the shadows.

We are traders.
