Where Does One Find a Mentor?

Recommended Posts

Neeko,

(Not going to disrespect your “unless you know a trader in Arizona that can help me or are a trader in Arizona.” request over in your other thread -

but I am mighty tempted to refer you to Woody and his AZ stick family ;) :rofl: )

 

anyways ...

 

One man’s 'scalp' is half of another man’s morning... etc etc

...

robust inventory control can be confused with scalping.

...

so

> Please let us know what you mean by “scalping”.

 

Are you already decent at ( your definition of ) scalping? I advise traders to discover and develop their natural niche(s) in trading before engaging in “trading training” - because in trading, you need to be able to rely on your innate tendencies and idiosyncratic abilities as much as on technique(s). To hone your skills, your actions must be extensions of your natural capabilities.

 

and fwiw, I also advise traders not to even consider a real “trading mentor” until they are consistently profitable. Contrary to what tommyho said above they are NOT "all inclusive" mish mashed together. Maybe he was only trained and thought he was getting coaching and mentoring too. Or he may have been blessed, a one in a million, with his developmental support - and now concludes everyone can be a one in a million just like him... smart people seem to particularly susceptible to this fallacy...

Paraphrasing Einstein = implied in 'keep it simple' is that 'it' must also to be as complex as necessary ...

 

ya'll have a great weekend
