After the STUPID loss last month, I made it a point to print out my rules and put them in front of me. When I sit at my desk, I can't help but see them. This is huge.

I am making a commitment to making this work and I must follow these basic rules. Analyzing my trades, if I don't follow these, I do poorly. When I do follow them, I do good.

The beginning of this month I didn't get to trade much. Actually, non until this week. I made the decision that when I am on the road coaching, I WILL NOT TRADE. When I am constantly looking at my phone and FOMO comes into play, I will lose.

It was very difficult to not trade for 7 straight trading days. I did it. And it was well worth it. I spent the time learning and studying Tim's watch list. What would I have done in these situations?

In the past few weeks, I think I have matured in my thinking. I'm not the giddy person that was trading a couple months ago. I am sticking to my rules.

Looking at my profit chart, I am still in the negative. I'm ok with that. I am making a come back. Slow & sure will be my success.

If you are new, get your rules in front of you and stick to them. Tim does crappy when he breaks from his. We are no different.

Study on!
