awesome post @mason_fecht! I've been focusing lately on avoiding getting shaken out of my trades and am having much more success!

wow man, very inspiring! thanks for taking the time to share this with us. i've been a trading challenge student for a under a year now but i've only been trading for about 4 months. When i get discouraged its post like this that perk me back up and keep me focused. Thanks.
