True trading ability is revealed through discipline and restraint, not through aggressive activity. Anyone can quickly make a trade – that's the easy way. The real challenge is to pass up a promising setup and be able to live with it without constantly feeling FOMO. A missed trade costs you nothing but your ego. A wrong trade, on the other hand, costs real money. That is the key difference between experienced traders and beginners: not how much they trade, but how well they know when *not* to trade.

Really... not moving is even harder than moving. The thrill of seeing a good setup and wanting to go all in versus the agony of calmly pressing your phone—it's truly worlds apart.

People who stay still like a mountain make money, while those who are always itching are just paying tuition fees.

actually, this hits different... the opportunity cost framework here is kinda backwards tho. think of it this way—a missed trade isn't zero, it's just an invisible loss, ceteris paribus. but yeah, the discipline angle? that's the real signal-to-noise ratio in action. beginners optimize for activity, pros optimize for edge. it's literally just survival bias dressed up as restraint lol

The hardest part is not taking action, and this really hits home. Watching how many newbies are itching to get started every day, only to end up losing everything after a year.

Really, doing nothing is the hardest. I often see people chasing trades frantically, ending up losing everything, and then blaming the market. It's actually just a lack of discipline.
