Thanks for all the wishes !!

Was thinking of keeping this title for the thread - "The A to Z of trading career - a professional trader's perspective"

Saw Timepass's attachment few posts ago - about the card game FreeCell. So, wanted to share some food for thought this weekend in those lines.

Am a big fan of the card game - poker and in many ways, poker and trading have similar tenets.

It actually doesn't matter what broker, indicators or system we use if we don't have the right mindset. Now, the billion dollar question is "What is the right mindset?" Here is a clue. The article is kinda old but it has a timeless relevance. Wall street firms still hire professional poker players and pay them heftily (most of the professional poker players have no college degree)

@vijkris Bhai I was not in TJI when Madan started his stint on TJi, later I found some reference to him on elder's posts. So was wondering if this is him.

Dear all,

Was thinking of opening a thread here in TJ as i have lot of free time in hand. Have not been trading for the last 6 months and planning to start back trading this January 2018. All-in-all, the break would be for 8 months. I was just joking to my trader friend that i might accidentally buy instead of selling within the first 10 days of starting trading again in Jan

Reason for the break - We have been blessed with a baby boy 2.5 months ago and started the break when my wife was 8 months pregnant. It was a great decision as i am/was able to spend dedicated time to my wife and baby. He is lot of fun. Initial days were pretty hard on us with lack of sleep.

Long story short, have lot of free time in hand and wanted to write some stuff related to trading. Am not sure what to write or how to take the thread forward(when i start one). What you guys think? Any ideas would be welcomed.

My system is just a pivot based system on 30 minutes and there are wonderful threads by many good traders in this very forum already on it (beaten to the core). Dont want to repeat the same music again. So, will not post charts (very novice in charting) but can discuss anything related to methods, backtesting, psychology, MM, risk control, how to start trading small,moving from part time to full time trading(if at all), increasing position size, how to save/invest money outside trading to sustain long term, funny US market stories, floor trading experience of my mentor, trading rules, Discipline, Market knowledge(why overflowing info can be constipation for us), Mechanical vs Discetionary trading, Automated trading, Trading softwares, even running AWS servers for automated trading( have fair experience on automated trading)....the thread will be like my thoughts flowing freely out of the mind and any kind of questions are welcome.

Whatever that goes on that thread will be from my experience/or heard from my mentor/fellow respectable traders and not hearsay(from strangers) or bookish.

As opinions are like bellybuttons(We all have one), am sure the discussions will be mentally rewarding and rejuvenating, to say the least.

Please pour in your ideas.

Hi Madan,

Congratulations... and looking forward for the new thread.
