Essentials
In the final evaluation, you are the only one responsible for your actions.
The market cannot hurt you unless you let it hurt you. You decided on the stock, you decided which direction to go, you opened the trade - nobody else did these things, only you. If you allow the trade to go badly against you, it was not your broker’s fault, it was not that pesky darned stock, and it was not the chart that let it happen.
People who can quickly and decisively admit they were wrong to themselves have a good chance at being successful in this field of endeavor. Those who continually blame others, the system or bad luck will wash themselves out through their very denial.
