Stock trading seems so simple. Find a stock, click buy and wait. Later, click sell and money is deposited into your trading account. Perhaps you do this a few more times with success. With each win you become more convinced that you are in sync with the market, never realizing that you just got lucky. Then one day, when you least expect it, the eventual loss comes followed by another and before you know it you have given all your winnings back, and then some.
