When the Market Becomes Your Teacher
A self-taught trader walks away from Wall Street's conventional wisdom and builds a system so powerful that hedge fund managers call it required reading. What did she discover that the experts missed? Markets aren't rational machines governed by economic laws-they're emotional battlefields where sentiment, panic, and euphoria drive prices far more than spreadsheets ever could. This insight changes everything. The market swings like a giant pendulum between extremes, and those who try to predict its path often find themselves crushed beneath it. The wiser approach? Stop forecasting and start following. Let the market reveal its direction, then move with it rather than against it. This fundamental shift-from prediction to observation-separates traders who survive from those who don't.
