“I took a small retirement account and traded it and lost half of it and quit…”

Feedback in:

Since 2000, I’ve read a lot of books on trading and traded small accounts. Several years back I took a small retirement account and traded it and lost half of it and quit. Since then I’ve continued to study and practice with small accounts in stocks and forex. My pattern is that I’ll have a string of losses and then get more cautious and go sideways forever. I’m 66 and strangely I still like trading and I’m hoping that as my schedule slows down I’ll have more time to watch price action and improve my skills.
