Trading with the Tims

I have a confession to make…

Even though I made profits above my average for the month* … I made some sloppy trading mistakes.

One was on Marathon Patent Group Inc. (NASDAQ: $MARA) and the other was Exela Technologies Inc (NASDAQ: $XELA).

I’m wrong roughly 30% of the time … But the most crucial thing about my mistakes is my acknowledging them. I also cut my losses ASAP — it’s rule #1.

It’s important for me to be honest so I can pass these lessons onto my students.

How can you cut losses quickly if you don’t realize you’re making a mistake? That’s why you have to constantly evaluate your performance. Track every trade. Analyze your performance regularly.

I actually encourage you to make a confessional video about your own mistakes … You’ll never be a perfect trader. And that’s the point — you don’t have to be perfect. There’s no such thing. And being honest with yourself is part of this process.

That’s how you improve.

Now, besides having some losses, I had a really good trade with Vuzix Corp. (NASDAQ: $VUZI). The setup was on point with this one, and the reward outweighed the risk. This is a play you gotta learn, so pay attention!

And I have a lot of students absolutely nailing their trades. Some are even trading better than me — I LOVE when that happens.

I’ll go into detail on the two stocks I was wrong about and MUCH MORE here. There are some major lessons in this video — don’t miss it!

Do you understand that small losses are OK as long as you learn from them? Leave a comment and say, “small losses are fine, small gains add up.”
