What kept you going or made you stay in trading?

[Traideruns]

getting paralyzed by info overload is so real, felt that exact same chaos when i first started. once your brain's fried from financial pressure and stress, every single price tick just turns into noisy garbage, so cutting live money out of the equation completely to focus purely on mechanics is the only way out. gotta shrink that risk down to nothing and just make your execution process a boring daily routine so your emotions cant hijack you.

Exactly. When the brain is already overloaded and under pressure regarding money, every tick starts to feel like a threat rather than just data. Removing real money from the equation—or reducing risk to near zero—is the only way to restructure the process and turn it into pure mechanics. When execution becomes boring and automatic, emotions lose their power to ruin things.
