'A trader's most valuable asset is his passion for the game. Without it, a trader may not be able to survive the inevitable dips in both financial and mental capital.
With it, your potential is infinite as trading becomes one big game.' @KevinMarder
@tradermatt I feel this... It's not like your average influencer claims that he just decided to trade less, reduce size, take creatine and boom, he's making 35k a month just by doing those changes. This is a true narration coming from experience, that's stupid bs targeting specific people.
@Centex00@TheShortBear I bet me as an European know more American geography than yourself. You probably European as well you just don't know it, ah wait how could you...
I’ll go on record and say 95% of what developing traders call “psychology problems” are really just gaps in their process.
If you’re constantly chasing trades it means your entry rules aren’t clear enough. If you’re freezing up at exits it’s because you never defined your targets. If you’re panicking every time price moves against you it’s because you’re sized wrong or never built a position sizing framework in the first place. Moves that fall within your process shouldn’t cause panic.
All of this stuff flows directly from process. Stop reading mindset books and start defining your process. Your trading shapes your mindset, not the other way around.
