Why do brilliant people often fail at trading?
A close friend of mine—a highly successful professional—struggled badly in the markets.
Not because he lacked intelligence, but because he tried to outsmart the market.
He wasn’t really chasing profits—he was chasing validation. He wanted to prove he could see value others had missed.
But trading doesn’t reward ego. It rewards adaptability.
📉 The lesson?
The market doesn’t care how smart you are—it only cares how well you listen.
