Thats why I joke about another 2 years, if I am lucky.
I signed up for a mentorship for about 6 months earlier this year and it really helped me understand things a lot more but I realised that alone was not going to help me be profitable, so I pulled out from that just to think for my self/ research/ practise etc.
Its only myself that can master discipline, patience needed for the execution to trade. Oh, and chart time, reading the posts here on about structure and the example screenshots posted here.
This site is good as there are lots of entry ideas but also lots of talk about risk, MM and execution which is more important I feel.
I know I will be still on this site next Christmas reading and learning and telling Pro he needs to stop eating burgers every day or go for the low calorie option.

PRO has a high metabolism he might be ok for another 10 years.
Not really,
Since retiring I've had to eat 50% of the normal amount or belly starts to smooth out.
Gotta keep those abs dude!!. LOL
6 pack all day baby.
NOT BEER EITHER. hehehehe
The battle to keep the food baby away. I hear ya. I have a desk job working from home since covid and that friggin kitchen is 3m away..Before then I would bike to work and kept the weight off. My exercise now is opening the fridge door LOL.
So Pro what did you do before retiring then, a physical/ outside job to keep you fit?
Was it then trading in the evening?
