Person ..sorry to hear your not happy with your investment ..but don't feel bad about it, in fact the stats are that you are no different to 95% , and as JD said $9000 is a cheep lesson.
It is extremly disapointing that our industry has such a high failure rate ..and there has to be a reason for it...
you are right and perhaps it's the way people look at things ..if they all look at it the same way and 95% flunk well would'nt you think that it's possible that the way there systems are presented is flawed..I'm mean 95 % of all people can't be complete dopes, and they are not!
SO my advise is take a step back ..have a good look around, but first rewiew what it is you want from trading ..
here's a quote from my teacher..

-Importance of self, self-discovery, self-management, and reorientation rather than retraining to more productive efforts.Answer is not in details, but in exploring-advancing to higher platforms.

Having an advanced starting position is not one with detailed completeness, but one for exploring. It is not an ending position that precipitates a completed program. Its rather a continually forward moving base that is more important than trading profits detailed for desired results. [One can compare it the difficulty of climbing Mt. Everest without advancing the base camps to successively higher levels.] Sameness eventually dies. Reorientation is better than retraining as the current base is retained. For example, a General Motors welder who is replaced by a robot can advance to a weld inspector because he knows what a good weld is.
