You cant turn a trader around , trading is a mentality , he needs to work hard with himself for years he needs to find his own sweet spot - not g spot - .
Each one is different , he needs to go through all mistakes over and over until he settles down , he needs experience. What works for you wont work for him because he is a different person . The moment you leave him alone he will screw everything .
Tar mate, you need to quit with all this negativity man, I mean ffs .
Richard Dennis proved beyond doubt that you could train traders. I'm sure you know the story
To the op
Trade demo and treat it like a live account i do that all the time .
If you insist on trading live trade small but dont quit the demo . Dont trade futures contracts trade cfds or etfs.
Put in your mind that you wont make a living from trading .
Compounding few grands into six figures account doesnt work it wont happen .
Most traders lose especially in forums .
The human mind is not designed to cope well with trading , it turns into gambling on a second . Accept that .
Extra little patience goes all the way , the more you are patient the better , train yourself .
Lower your expectations , for example i am sure you can make 1% every year , lower your target it becomes easier the lower the better .
BTW i didnt read the thread
. But they are all the same .
