Predicting – Thinking you know what will happen next

Using fundamentals to trade is like calculating the average rainfall over a decade, to decide whether you need to bring an umbrella out now

One tip I can give to a fearful trader is to trade smaller.
Keep reducing risk till your comfort level, and slowly work your way up.— Rayner Teo (@Rayner_Teo) January 17, 2017
Outside of price not much really matters. For a decade what I thought really mattered was actually having a neg impact on my trading.

“10% growth for 25 years is not 250%, it’s 985%!”
When you show relatively new investors this kind of thing, it’s like an awakening.

A casino doesn’t make money by predicting. They manage their risk and let their edge play out — and it’s the same for trading.

Win by not losing. One of the simplest ways to make higher returns is to stop doing things to cost yourself money. #1 = stop over-trading.

Going into a trade, novice traders ask "how much can I make"? Experienced traders ask "how much can I lose"? Manage risk first

Up to 75% of a stock's performance has been attributed to the industry/sector it is in. Be selective and fish from the right wells.

I'd rather be the second person going in the right door, then the first person going in the wrong door. React > predict.

As @SJosephBurns says – my trades have 3 outcomes:
1. Small Loser
2. Small Winner
