Talking Trading | Australian Sharemarket Strategies, Education & Trading Psychology

COVID-19 is the pandemic of a generation and Chris Tate tells you how to protect yourself when the markets go from manic to panic.Louise Bedford - Unsung HeroJulia Osorio is a driving instructor and the mechanical attitude and way she teaches people to drive, has translated into her executing her trading plan in the same way, every single time.In only 2 years Julia is trading like a pro.  Chris TateCOVID-19 is the pandemic of a generation.People have reacted with primitive fight or flight mechanisms and all rushed towards the door taking the markets into panic territory.At 6.20 mins hear the old parable that says “Would you rather mistake a bear for a rock or a rock for a bear?” The correct answer is… a rock for a bear … because then you just look silly.But people have seen a bear and mistaken it for a rock and the bear has run up to them growling.The massive drop in markets has been the result.Hear how Chris has protected himself in this environment (7.15 mins).Then we ask Chris your most burning questions on how to navigate the market during this time.At 9.12 mins hear about the VIX or as it is colloquially known 'The fear gauge" and then at 12.32 mins hear how in any world economic shock such as 9/11, The GFC or COVID-19 a trader's system should protect them.At 13.10 mins hear CT explain indices and their upward bias and his emphatic reason for not shorting them and at 16.45 mins hear how the role of a system is to exclude the trader as much as possible..

Louise Bedford in her Mindpower segment reframes losses so they are not failures. Louise Bedford– MindpowerBefore you start trading, do you think how hard can it be?But then you get some losses and they gather in momentum and they feel like failures?Even professional traders fail a lot. Reframe those trading losses so that if you have followed your written trading plan you are one step closer to that big trading win. Steven GoldsteinSteven learned trading by being thrown in the deep end. He went on to gather 25 years experience on the banking floor.Steven talks (at 8:10 mins) on the huge amount of effort it takes for a trader to develop. Just like learning to box or play the guitar, trading takes a high level of skill and personal development to be consistently profitable.After all, if trading were easy everyone would be doing it.Steven then shares how long it took him to become a really good trader in his career (12:00 mins) and the enormous value of a community of traders to create a support network (15:35 mins).We talk on risk management (at 18:25 mins) and then we talk on losses (21:45 mins) and how even during Steven's best trading periods he still had times where his confidence was undermined.
