β€œThe expectation that you bring with you in trading is often the greatest obstacle you will encounter.” - Yvan Byeajee


If we expect trading to be β€œeasy” (it isn’t)...


Our approach and preparation will mirror that expectation.


We’ll skip the prep work, laugh at risk, and dismiss discipline.


Like a cocky fighter who gets humbled by the first punch…


The market wants us to underestimate her. She wants us to think risk management is for those β€œother people”. Or that preparation can simply be replaced with confidence.


The reality though?


Easy expectations create expensive mistakes.


But when we expect trading to be hard (which it is)...


We’ll approach it with respect, proper risk, and a level of discipline and preparation that’s fit for the profit potential it can offer those who know how to play the game. 


Now obviously that doesn’t guarantee we’ll win…


But we at least give ourselves a fighting chance.


Because expectations create emotions…


And our emotions can be the driving force behind our success as a trader! They can be the difference between disciplined execution and self-sabotage.


Expecting it to be hard…

Expecting it to be boring…

Expecting it to require losing…


These ultimately allow us to replace hope with preparation.


And that’s a powerful habit to start 2026 with!


Alright, back to the charts and a disciplined day.
