Most traders think about this all WRONG
“Work hard and you’ll be rewarded”. I’m sure you’ve heard this before. You probably heard it at home as a child. You probably heard it at school from your teachers. And you probably heard it at work too. It’s a common “understanding” around the world, and in lots of...

Is this portfolio going to be a nightmare?

“Flat tire” trading accounts
