Rationalism vs. Spiritualism


Lately, I've been pondering whether a trader who believes is in Darwin (evolution theory) is more or less successful than one who is religious (loves God and his fellow man), all other things being equal.

Since most trading coaches agree that self beliefs and psychology are more important than trading skills, I was interested in hearing what others think and why.
The Wall St. superpowers have resources beyond our imagination and implement automated trading systems daily that often times mow down any individual trader standing in their way. As individual traders, we are up against some stiff competition in that respect because we don't have those resources as you stated.

That's what seperates the smart/big money, and the rest of the traders. Those of us who can grind out a living in that environment should feel very good about themselves.
