What goes on inside your head when you trade? Here is a take on trading psychology you won’t want to miss. Trading Coach Andrea Wylan shares how consistently successful traders think. Chris Tate discusses the risk/reward ratio and Louise Bedford tells you to trade what you see.

 

Chris Tate - A Little Trading

Risk/reward ratio and why it is a useful metric for post-trend analysis.

 

 

 

 

Mindpower - Louise Bedford

It is so important for a trader to be objective.

When you trade make sure you trade what you see, not what you think you see.

Often, we can distort our views and convince ourselves of something that is not actually real.

 

 

Andrea Wylan - Trader and Trading Coach

Andrea works with traders to help them move through the transition from losing money to making money and trading consistently.

Trading success is about your psychology and mindset and one of the keys to trading success is how you talk to yourself.

If your wife abused you, called you a loser or hopeless, you might consider getting a divorce, yet unsuccessful traders speak to themselves like this all the time. A successful trader speaks pragmatically. They say ‘Let’s look at where in my system I erred, what can I do differently next time?’

The way we treat ourselves in our mind is key to our success. Look at yourself as another person and get clear on how you are talking to yourself.

Trading is similar to driving under the influence. As traders, we trade under the influence of our psychology, our subconscious, our traumas and there is a conflict of the conscious and subconscious mind.

Traders need to scrutinise themselves as much as the markets.

Andrea’s goal with her clients is to heal the emotions that are blocking them rather than using discipline to control them.

Being successful in the markets means you have done the inner work.

This episode is a UNIQUE opportunity to hear one of the famous Freedom Writers, Tiffony Jacobs, who grew up homeless on the streets of LA and transformed her life of underprivilege to now passionately speaking publicly and advocating for financial literacy. Many people would call Tiffony a hero, and on this same theme, Louise Bedford shares on being the hero in your own life. Mindpower - Louise BedfordBe the hero of your own life.We all feel fear. Don’t try and push it away, move forward with it.You are the hero of your own life, it is your turn to step into the light.  Tiffony JacobsTiffony grew up on Skid Row.She often slept on concrete pavements, stood in lines for food stamps and wandered the streets of LA with all her clothes in one bag.It was a desperate and desolate childhood.But all that changed when she met the inspirational teacher Erin Gruwell.Gruwell gave her students the gift of books and reading, buying novels out of her pay packet and inspiring them to rise from underprivileged and create lives of opportunity and empowerment.Gruwell organised activities for the students like meeting holocaust survivors and suggested each child write down the stories of their backgrounds in a journal. It became a source of solace and empowerment and soon the journals were published and the children famously became known as the Freedom Writers.Gruwell’s captivating story has been caught by Hollywood in the movie Freedom Writers starring Hillary Swank and Patrick Dempsey.Today Tiffony is a public speaker and a passionate advocate of financial literacy. She is educating herself and creating her own pillow of financial security so she never has to sleep on concrete pavements again.Hear her inspiring story in this week’s episode.To find out more about Tiffony go to:www.howmoneyworks.com/tiffonyjacobsOr email Tiffony at:[email protected]

Didn’t get a chance to make it to the one-day seminars with Chris Tate and Louise Bedford? Or do you just want refresher tips? Here are some of the key points shared by Chris Tate on how to be a successful trader. This episode will punch through any confusion you're feeling.Mindpower – Louise BedfordStop Procrastinating!To get over procrastination break down that big project into tiny chunks and once you have started you are more likely to continue.SHAME is a big reason people procrastinate. The best way to overcome it is consider the project done and associate good feelings with it.Then truly you will be a high performer.Chris TateWe are treasure hunters ….  but often in the wrong way.Good traders BUY NEW HIGHS.But many people don’t grasp this concept easily. You will never be wealthy buying something that is going down. In Chris’s mind most people are fossicking around in their grandmother’s underwear draw looking for shillings she collected when she was younger while the sensible people and good traders are looking in the right spot.They have the right key to the bank vault.BUY NEW HIGHS.The sheer simplicity of trading can bamboozle people because they expect it to be immensely complex.But in reality all you need to do is listen to the markets and they will tell you everything you need to know.And make sure you keep talking to other traders to get the support you need. They are the only ones who will understand your pain, your frustration, your growth and the errors you make.In fact part of a traders resume is to be wrong. Trading is one of those professions where you are paid to be wrong and the traders who make the fewer errors wins.And remember successful people have a directed given PURPOSE. Everyone is a beginner is something, the most successful beginners GET THE BASICS RIGHT.
