 Do not cut profits short and cut losing positions fast.

Once people can turn their mindset from a problem focus to a solution focus, they can identify the adaptive things that they are already doing and do more of them.

You will not become a better trader by emulating a market guru. You will become a better trader by identifying the occasions when you are already trading well and then modeling your future performance on those.

If you are struggling with your trading, thinking of hanging it up, you need to identify your own collage the things you are currently doing that break your problem patterns.

The most helpful part of a fearless trading inventory is the firsthand recognition that, even amidst failure, one does indeed harbor the seed of success.

Entering a facilitative physical state is one of the quickest ways of placing oneself in a winning frame of mind.

Even the solution that seems the smallest can serve as an anchor for life altering change.

-Taking breaks from trading
Trading is especially successful after an extended break. The change of routine allows you to return to trading with a fresh perspective and to perceive patterns that would otherwise not have stood out.

-Immersing oneself in what if scenarios.
Chance favors the informed mind.

-Playing loose
Many successful traders learn to keep loose at the trading station in the same way that boxers or ball players stay loose before and during their contests: with uplifting music, banter with friends, and pregame warmup drills.

-Achieving nonattachment
As soon as you need something, or need something to occur, it gains control over you.

Do a few things well, and perform them often and consistently. Confidence does not result from positive thinking; it results from the ability to face defeat with equanimity and to avoid attachment to market outcomes.

Maximizing Your Profits with Scoring

SETTING YOUR MAXIMUM INTRADAY TRADING LOSS First things first: set a max intraday trading loss. There will be days when you just do not have it. Why do you think coaches pull their players when they are not playing well? They are more harmful on the field than off. When you are underperforming, you are hurting your team and your trading business. You need a system to yank yourself over to the bench. A stop loss is your answer. TRADING BASED UPON THE TIME OF DAY A good trader makes note of what time of day it is, when he trades most profitably, and adjusts his trading to fit such times. Your numbers at the end of the month will not reflect your true trading potential. Make the most trades with the most size during the trading periods that statistically are most profitable for you. Money saved during your weaker trading periods is money earned. Consistency The fact is that most trades you make will start working for you right away. But the new traders also hold stocks that are trading ag...

Where thought prevails, power may be found!

If you think you are beaten, you are; if you think you dare not you don't; If you like to win, but you think you can't, it is almost certain you won't, If you think you'll lose, you've lost, for out of the world we find success begins with a fellow's will it's all in the state of mind. If you think you are outclassed, you are - you've got to think high to rise. You've got to be sure of yourself before you can ever win a prize. Life's battle don't always go to the stronger or faster man, But soon or late the man who wins is the man who thinks he can. No one knows what hidden forces lie dormant within you. You, yourself, do not know your capacity for achievement, and you never will know until you come in contact with the particular stimulus that arouses you to greater action and extends your vision, develops your self confidence, and moves you with a deeper desire to achieve. The most important turning points of life often comes at the ...

Self-Discipline

One must gain mastery over self the person who is not master of himself can never be master of others. Lack of self-mastery is, of itself, the most destructive form of indefiniteness. By mastering the three appetites responsible for most of one's lack of self discipline. The three appetites are (1) The desire for food, (2) The desire for expression of sex, (3) The desire to express loosely organized opinions. When a man becomes master of these three appetites, he has developed enough self-discipline to conquer easily those of lesser importance. Self mastery contempates sufficient control over the appetites to enable one to feed them what they need and withhold food not needed. Take the desire for physical food, for example. The majority of people are so weak in self discipline they fill their stocmachs with combinations of rich food which please the taste but overwork the organs of digestion and elimination. They pour into their stomachs both quantity and combinations of food which...
