Yo,

Sunday evening.

You're scrolling through Twitter (It'll never be X to me!)

Another green P&L screenshot.

Someone's up £340 on the weekend.

Someone else had their best week ever.

You close the app.

Open it again.

Another one.

And quietly in the back of your head...

"What are they doing that I'm not?"

Here's what I've learned after years in this game.

You're not seeing their bad Wednesdays.

You're not seeing the week they gave it all back.

You're not seeing the Tuesday night they nearly quit.

You're watching a highlight reel and comparing it to your behind the scenes.

Every single trader you're comparing yourself to has a folder full of screenshots they didn't post.

The gap isn't between you and them.

It's between your whole story and their best bits.

That's not a gap worth measuring yourself against.

P.S. The traders who post every green screen...

Never post the ones where they stare at the screen for two hours and close the laptop without trading.

We've all got those.
