One of the most frustrating experiences in trading is being early on a good idea.
You see the setup, you enter, and nothing happens. Or worse it moves against you before it moves in your direction.
During that waiting period, you start doubting everything. Was I wrong? Did I miss something? Should I cut it?
Then weeks later, the move finally plays out… without you, if you exited.
That gap between “correct idea” and “visible validation” is where most people break.
The market doesn’t reward insight immediately. It rewards whoever can survive the waiting period.
