trading psychology

2022년 8월 8일

This isn't a game of who's better, this isn't a competition, I really had to sacrifice a lot to have any reasonable understanding of price action.
This is also not a collective, it is a one man process.
The trading psychology was the hardest for me, it's about controlling my lusts, the lust to enter the market has shown me a lot about myself.
Everything I do, I do extremely, it turns out that I quickly become addicted to literally everything, sports,
food, going out, and much more, so this got in the way of my trading and I had to do a lot of introspection
to understand why I was sometimes in a trade where I could immediately see what had gone wrong afterwards,
My lusts my compulsive impulses got in the way and I still have it a bit.
also wanting to convince others that I am "right" or compulsively discussing with people just to be funny, were stumbling blocks that stood in my way.
to become a better trader I had to sacrifice a lot and I still come across things of myself that I can do better,
I also thought about external things, such as smoking and eating and drinking, this turned out to be a real eye opener for me.
Because I am very sensitive to my impulses I will have to avoid certain foods because this stimulates these impulses,
Trading for me goes much further than just the fundamental or the technical, for me it starts internally within myself,
I hope to stimulate other traders with this to take a closer look at yourself.
