• your portfolio is not an ATM
• Patience is a virtue in trading
• Control the downside rather than the upside
• when your setup is not there, dont trade
• Focus on “what” over “why”, preparation > prediction
• progressive Exposure and taking profits
• beware of social media
• there is always another trade
• your main job is protecting your capital
• make mistakes but don't quit
• don't look (too often) at your balance
• recognize the transition after a good period and make a break
• limit your lost, not limit your profit
• take profit (20%) and move the SL over the entry price. Let the other 80% ride and trends work
