When I started my path as a trader and investor, if I may say so, I initially tried to listen to the opinions of other people, to take them into account. Now I realized that all this does not make sense,
I think you should always go with your own decision anytime there sometimes that our decision does not favour us or bring solution to our problems, but with other people suggestion we succeed sometimes, so you can see that as a trader, what I think you should be doing is that sometimes you need to be listen to other people opinions and see if it will favour you because they are some decisions we make in life by our self at the end we regret, and these is money issues, so if you should involve some team work I think it will be better, in other to achieve some goals, these is because there maybe something you don't know and other person by your side knows it, the fact that there things we even read and analyse but we didn't understand till another person come and clarify it for us orally.
and you should rely only on your knowledge.
I don't believe that someone should solely rely on their knowledge, mate. Why do we have individuals to teach us what we don't know if someone should just rely on what they know? If we take that into account, this could sometimes lead to some traders suffering significant losses. You can see that no one is an expert on how to achieve perfection; you must have some knowledge gaps and need to seek clarification. So I don't think it is wise for someone to solely rely on their knowledge.
