In the #meme space, the truly top traders have almost all gone through this scene: They have personally thrown into the trash the systems, indicators, beliefs, and entire strategies that once saved them and made them a lot of money—completely and without mercy. Not because they have become worse, but because the market has changed, and you have not. The most fatal thing is not losing money, but holding onto yesterday's correctness and dying in today's market. Many traders who think they are "alpha mature" are actually just the ones most deeply bound by their past successes. This is also why many who were smart wallets last year have returned to zero this year.
