no gains, without (the right type of) pains


risk can't be separated from trading.
a trader must accept this fact.
once you accept this, it will be prudent to understand that there are four choices of trading risk you can take
1. small risk taken, small gain booked
2. small risk taken, maximum gain booked
3. large risk allowed, small gain booked
4. large risk allowed, large gain expected.
while type 4 risk remains a dream, rather a nightmare,
type 3 risk is what amateurs do on the way to becoming pro's (provided they survive)
type 2 risk taker is a pro
and type 1 risk is the sign of a maturing amateur.
