Am I the worst trader in the world?
Does anyone else keeping finding themselves on the wrong side of the market all the time?

Can anyone give me some constructive (not give up) and practical advise on this to help get my confidence back?
Thanks
You need to take into account that a day trade that has
made a good profit can go into the floor broker‘s or
desk trader‘s pocket. This is possible as he can leave
buyer/seller‘s name in blank and only fill it in when
reported or taken from the runner (the boy that picks up
the slips from the floor). In some markets this is not
possible since the whole deal (except the shouting) is
immediately recorded. But when trading is wild, a fast
light is put on, which allows 15 minutes to conclusion
instead of only five. I could give you many examples
but this is sufficient to convince you to change both
your trading house and/or floor broker or, better still
both. Find a floor broker that you know and trust, this
is the only solution. It is almost impossible to always
be the loser, so think twice and change your servers.
