Heavy lies the single contract.

It’s really interesting when I was trading full time how little $50/point was to me — because I think in terms of % risk relative to my account size.

But when you’re making a salary, the risk doesn’t feels like a % of portfolio, it feels like hours — Real hours that you have to put back in to break even if you lose… People on salary are never trading points, they’re trading their life. It’s why they’re quick to cut profits and extend unrealized losses.

TLDR; Poor stay poor.
