ADVICE: Only rule that matters...

So I see a lot of talk about discipline, sticking to low amounts, not have expectations for any trader or investor.

But the reality is that only a single solitary thing matters to ever succeed: Be able to predict with sufficient accuracy what the price of an asset will be in the near or longer future. Probably easier for the shorter term.

EVERYTHING ELSE is irrelevant. You can be the most ill disciplined investor, but if you have something that you can TRUST because it consistently is mostly right... discipline will come as naturally as the $$$ you are making will convince you. It will be FUN to trust something no one else has, a true edge.

If you don't have that edge... sooner or later you will lose it all. You might get lucky a few times, but if you have no way to do a useful prediction, game over. Never invest until you do.
