That feeling like you're running out of time is one of the most dangerous traps in this market. You start thinking: - "This is my last chance." - "If I miss this run, I'll never catch up." - "Everyone else is printing but my account hasn't moved." Then what happens? You oversize and throw risk management out the window. You chase green candles. You hold too long. You get greedy when it's time to take profit. The truth is: You're not actually behind. You're just watching too many people on social media post the best 5% of their trading days. You're not late to the cycle. Your execution just sucks because your focus is in the wrong place. You're definitely not out of time. You're just rushing out of fear. What do you do instead? 1. Stop watching other people's results. You don't know their size, how many attempts the winning trade took, or their risk. 2. Zoom out. There are opportunities every single day in this market. This isn't the last cycle despite what the engagement farmers may say. 3. Journal. Journal. Journal. You'll be shocked at how much your trading improves when you're honest with yourself. 4. Track your best setups. Focus only on those. The traders who "make it" aren't the ones that catch pico bottoms or tops. They SURVIVE long enough to enjoy amazing conditions when they come around. That's how you win.
