[To be a pro trader, you must be willing to get your hands dirty]

Now:

Just because you came up with a hypothesis to your question, doesn’t mean it’s correct.

That’s why as a professional trader, it’s your job to validate your trading ideas (or hypothesis).

You’ve got to get your hands dirty and do the work like backtesting, forward testing, etc.

For example, you might wonder:

“Is a 10-week breakout better than a 50-week breakout in terms of returns relative to risk?”

Well, to find out you can do a backtest across a universe of stocks using these two parameters, and see which offers a better result.

To make your life easier, here are some tools you can use for backtesting…

Amibroker – A backtesting platform

Norgate Data – Data feed

Upwork – A marketplace to find programmers

Still, most of you won’t do it because it’s easier to solicit an opinion than to actually do the work.

The problem is, you’ll never know if it’s true, or not—that’s why you must be willing to get your hands dirty and do the work!

[Be realistic and know that you won’t make money every day]

Here’s the thing:

A trading strategy seeks to exploit certain market conditions in order to profit from it.

(For example, Trend Following makes money when many markets are trending together.)

But as you know, the markets are always changing. One moment it could be trending, the next, it could be ranging.

In other words, you’ll make money when market conditions are favourable to you.

When it isn’t, your trading strategy will lose money—which explains why you won’t make money every day (as market conditions change).

[How to grow a small trading account (that nobody tells you)]

It’s easy to grow a small trading account.

Want to take $500 and double it within 2 days?

Want to make 50% a week?

It’s easy because all you need to do is risk a huge % of your account on each trade, and if the trade goes your way, BOOM—target achieved.

But here’s the thing…

Just because it’s easy doesn’t mean it’s feasible.

Sure, you can double your account in a few days. But, it’s also a matter of time before you give everything back to the markets, and more.

The solution?

Instead of looking for shortcuts, let time and money be on your side.

This means you’ll regularly add funds to your account and compound your returns.

In trading, it's not about predicting the market.

Just like a casino, the key is to manage risk and let your edge play out.

Your success as a trader depends on how well you execute your strategy, not on how accurately you predict the market's movements.

[Be prepared for a steep learning curve before profitability]

I’m sure you can agree:

Professionals like lawyers, doctors, pilots, etc. spend 5 years (or more) to master their craft.

That’s why in the early years of their career, they typically don’t “see the money” as they are in the learning stage.

But when they get good at it, BOOM, the money starts rolling in—but, it doesn’t happen overnight.

And it’s the same for a professional trader!

You’ll take years to build your foundation, make mistakes, find your edge, and if you survive long enough, you can’t help but get good at it.

So, don’t come into trading thinking you can quit your day job after taking an online course—it doesn’t work that way.

There’s a steep learning curve ahead and you must be prepared for it.

You’ve been warned.

So go make the necessary changes and give it another go.

Failure only happens when you quit.

Otherwise, it's feedback.
