808 - Trading, It Seems Worse Than It Is

AKIL STOKES
About this episode

Many traders have the misconception that in order to be a successful trader they have to win "all of the time." The truth is that most successful traders lose just as much if not more than they win. Finding your ideal win percentage can be a difficult task but as you gain more experience, you tend to become more comfortable with losing more.
