A trader, frustrated by a losing streak, stormed into their broker's office. "It's the broker's fault!" they exclaimed. "The platform was slow, the spreads were wide, and the news feed was delayed!" The broker, a seasoned professional, listened patiently. "I understand your frustration," they said calmly. "But remember, the market is a complex beast, and sometimes things don't go as planned. It's important to take responsibility for your own trades and learn from your mistakes." The trader, still unconvinced, muttered, "Well, it could have been the broker's fault." A humorous take on a common trader's tendency to blame external factors for their losses.
