Well, definitely it is. When you're used to the market, you're aware of how it goes and it's like an easy thing to you anymore. That's what happens when we're used to things. Being reliable depends on how good you are, how experienced you are.
And with what you've experienced, everything is going to dependent to you and when you end up with good results, that only means that there's something that you get to understand as you trade.
It would really be just normal that whenever you are really aware on how things do works or on how it do behaves then you wouldnt really easily freak out
which it would really be just normal for you to deal off with and thats really one of they keys on which you could able to handle yourself well into this
place or anything you are tending to engage on.Real life experiences on certain things will give out some idea and true engagement
which would really make you learn.
That's the advantage of the traders that have been known to what they do. It's easier and you're more calm when the market is dipping. But more to it is you get more plan of action and the reaction you do is always in timing and correct. You become more reliable unlike before that you are not used to it.
There's always an advantage if you are already familiar with the market situations, than to start a trading without even a good experience from it. But for me, getting used to the market and learning from all the mistakes we did will eventually contribute to a more successful trading, as we will never be making the same mistakes again. And once we start understanding the market, we can weigh things which strategies will work or not, as we can be more productive and successful traders if we will come to ride the flaws of the market and manage the risk.
I agree to you, counting those mistakes will help you to be a good trader but that's part of being used to the market. As you become used to the market, you're gaining experience and that's included on it.
