Stock Trading Quick Tip: The Surgeon's Dilemma

Through my experience as a trader and teacher, there is a particular sequence of logic that I’ve heard over and over again. On the surface it may sound like very reasonable logic; however, when you stop and really think about it, it literally is terrible logic! If I’m being honest though, when I first got started into trading stock, I tricked myself with this exact logic.

The Surgeon’s Dilemma is a way we trick ourselves as traders, but as I show in this video using a different example, there is an extreme flaw to this way of thinking.
