This line hits differently once you understand what it really means.
Most traders quit in their first year. The losing streaks, the pressure, the doubt, the days when nothing works can break almost anyone. The market tests people long before it rewards them.
But a small group stays in the game. And that group understands a simple truth. The time horizon decides everything.
🔴 The early stage is the red zone.
This is where the market collects its fees.
Position sizing is learned through mistakes.
Emotions show their power.
Old habits fall apart and new ones slowly form.
Money is lost, but experience grows faster than any balance.
🟢 Then comes the green zone.
Trades start to make sense.
Volatility no longer scares because it is familiar.
A system takes shape that feels natural.
Trust in the process replaces fear.
And eventually the chart narrows to that point on the far right.
That point is freedom.
Freedom to work from anywhere.
Freedom from bosses and schedules.
Freedom to scale income without adding hours.
Freedom to secure a family’s future for decades.
The real question for every trader is simple.
Can five hard years be endured to earn fifty free ones?
Most people choose comfort now and regret it later.
A smaller group embraces the pain now and spends the next decades living on their own terms.
