Ever find yourself holding onto a trade, or even a belief, just because you're looking for certainty? In today’s episode, Greg Singleton and I dive into the topic of detachment in trading. We explore why it's so hard to let go, the courage it takes to embrace uncertainty, and how clinging to things—whether in trading or life—only leads to disappointment. It’s time to confront the truth: change is inevitable, and letting go is often the key to moving forward.
