My name is Rip, semi-retired and I have been pseudo trading options in the Equity markets for a few years. Following the rules and not following. I am very happy to have found this site and look forward to learning all I can.
I am currently living in Basketball territory (go Duke!) working on a few traits and characteristics like discipline,patience, greed and fear to name a few, and if anyone has input please feel free to pipe in.
Greetings Rip, welcome and congrats on the semi-retirement! Discipline and patience is definitely key, and gets easier the more you practice and make a habit of keeping a trading journal. Greed and fear are actually easier psychological hurdles to overcome once you get your risk management processes down and get a lot of trades under your belt. Good luck bud and let us know if you have questions in the School of Pipsology!
