Why It Gets Worse Before It Gets Better

Описание: Most people don’t get into trading dreaming of stress, blown accounts, and staring at charts all day.
The original dream was freedom, time, flexibility, and a better life funded by trading.
But for many traders, that dream slowly drifts… and turns into something closer to a nightmare.

In this video, I walk through:

how far trading can drift from the original dream

why the “nightmare phase” lasts so long for most traders

what actually causes people to get stuck there

and what helps move trading back toward the life we thought we were building in the first place

This isn’t about strategies or setups.
It’s about the journey almost no one prepares you for — and what it looks like when trading finally starts working with your life instead of against it.
