Tackle Today: Pride and Joy

ā‰ˆ Spring is here. ā‰ˆ

Spring is here and mosquitos are already everywhere. Like mosquitos, people become excited and start frolicking in the streets making noise in cafes and bars. Parks will now be opened until 10PM and there is no excuse to NOT taking your kids to play for the 1000th time on the swing. The day seems to have less than 24 hours. It’s aggravating.

That’s when you start valuing the practical things in life the most. Your systems, for example.

“You’ve heard about love givin’ sight to the blind
My baby’s lovin’ cause the sun to shine.”

When you have a system to call your own you are allowed to fully enjoy the sunny days ahead. Because it is yours, you took care of each and every detail. The candidates’ selection process is in pristine conditions. You are running numbers with confidence, throwing out those who flash red signals.

“I love my baby, heart and soul
Love like ours won’t never grow old.”

The entry signals are as clear as crystal because you’ve been training your eyes like Neo trained his own to perceive the Matrix.

You are surgical in taking profits and losses. You have a journal filled with stats, fully developed to become the spinal cord of your trading business.

“I love my baby, she’s long and lean
You mess with her, you’ll see a man get mean.”

You’ve worked on the integration between systems. Now the cash flow system provides capital to the directional one. Winning trades send capital back to the cashflow wheel and both provide funds for hedging. Theta and Delta are no rivals anymore.

When you have a system to call your own, you take care of it. In return, you have more time to enjoy all the little things in life, for the 1000th time.

“She’s my sweet little thang
She’s my pride and joy.”
