The times I leave money on the table as a swing trader are the times when I over estimate the human crowd psychology in thinking the ease and obviousness of a continued pattern playing out again would be...just TOO predicable.
Afterwards, I "woulda shoulda coulda"... and then remember that humans rarely change their ways. And when they do, it happens slowly.
Because let us be honest, your slob of a friend Joey isn't going to wake up today and suddenly feel inspired to help clean the house. I mean sure - those moments happen. But the odds don't favor the new and unpredictable behavior as much as it favors the old conditioned habits.
But one day your friend may actually have a real awakening. Any risk management system that doesn't account for that possibly as well, is broken.
