To Become A Successfull Trader

Corey aka (lescor):

Trade SMALL until you've established that you have a real edge, then size up slowly. The thing that kills new guys is they come in and start trading 1000 shares at a time and blow through their money way too quick. I think almost anyone can make it in trading IF they can survive the learning curve. You have to nurse your capital along through that process, and it can be a long one.

Which ties in with the saying that is at the basis of everything I do:

The three goals of trading in order of importance:

1. Preserve your capital
2. Earn consistent returns
3. Earn large returns

You cannot skip any steps. Newbies always want to go straight to step 3.
