Mike,
I’ve had three issues that have kept me from trading well over the years.
1. The tendency to be a perma-bear
2. An unwillingness to cut losses and medicate with hope
3. Resistance to back-testingI’d sum these up as an unwillingness to commit to trend following – that being my major obstacle / challenge, until now.
Fun fact, as related to the content of your message below: I joined Salomon Brothers in 1994 after my undergrad at Virginia Tech (not in Sales & Trading, but as a Business Technology Analyst).
And in 2009, I joined the [name] Trading Tribe and have had the good fortune to meet Ed Seykota at a couple of his workshops in Austin/Bastrop (2013, 2019).
Small world!
Best,

Yes, small world! A good start.
