It would be many years before I would attempt stock trading again

It was many years before I would attempt stock trading again. In the fall of 2018 the market took a turn and I saw an opportunity to get back in. This time I would be more careful and not repeat my earlier experiences. However, I just couldn’t seem to time the market right. I always seem to get in late and out to early, never making any money.   This year, around March of 2019, I was sharing my story with a dear friend.  As we talked, he shared that he too was an avid investor/trader.  The only difference was that he was winning. About 80% of his trades made money, and he could repeat it almost every week.  He said” That most traders are like sharks, trying to take huge bites.  He suggested that I should be more like a piranha.  Piranha take small bites, and keep taking bites until they consume the entire thing.  He assured me that this was indeed  A Better Way To Play the Game.
