[price_and_volume]

Successful investing is a journey.

First, you learn how to lose - Take enough positions & you'll certainly experience some losses.
It's important to progress from continuously holding losers to minimizing losses on a position.

Second, you learn how to learn - Toughest part for most retail - everyone has occasional good luck that's too often attributed to intelligence - this is obvious when these investors get angry & lash out at anyone who offers sound advice on how to improve the trading process.

Third, you make money using what you've learned - The Grail.

Open-minded money-makers can move thru these steps without too much difficulty, but few fall into the open-minded category.

Mentorship helps, I got lucky there for sure.
