Read Crush It! In A Couple Of Hours. Great Book.

  
Education, Life

I have read “Crush It!: Why Now is the Time to Cash in on Your Passion” yesterday night before going to bed in a couple of hours. I read the full 142 pages without stopping even for a glass of water. Its a pretty amazing book and I connect to Gary Vaynerchuck in many aspects. I am living the life he describes in his book. I am having the time of my life,I love what I do so much that it does not even fell like work to me. I am passionate about it, and I would work even longer hours if I could.

The International Monetary Fund is looking at raising its share of Greece’s financial rescue package by €10bn ($13.2bn) amid fears that the planned €45bn bail-out will fail to prevent the country’s debt crisis from spiralling out of control.

Senior bankers and officials in Washington and Athens told the Financial Times that the IMF was in talks to increase its aid contribution by €10bn. The fund could make that sum available under a planned three-year loan, according to an Athens-based analyst familiar with the talks.

Investors and policy specialists said that expectations of the size of the three-year package in Washington policy circles had increased to at least €70bn. The EU has so far proposed to provide €30bn and the IMF €15bn. “The fund’s current ceiling for Greece is €25bn and the release of the extra amount is under discussion,” the analyst said. The IMF declined to comment on the size of the package.

Trading Do's and Dont's

In no particular order of importance

  1. Forget the news, remember the chart. You’re not smart enough to know how news will affect price. The chart already knows the news is coming.
  2. Buy the first pullback from a new high. Sell the first pullback from a new low. There’s always a crowd that missed the first boat.
  3. Buy at support, sell at resistance. Everyone sees the same thing and they’re all just waiting to jump in the pool.
  4. Short rallies not selloffs. When markets drop, shorts finally turn a profit and get ready to cover.
  5. Don’t buy up into a major moving average or sell down into one. See #3.
  6. Don’t chase momentum if you can’t find the exit. Assume the market will reverse the minute you get in. If it’s a long way to the door, you’re in big trouble.
  7. Exhaustion gaps get filled. Breakaway and continuation gaps don’t. The old traders’ wisdom is a lie. Trade in the direction of gap support whenever you can.
  8. Trends test the point of last support/resistance. Enter here even if it hurts.
  9. Trade with the TICK not against it. Don’t be a hero. Go with the money flow.
  10. If you have to look, it isn’t there. Forget your college degree and trust your instincts. (more…)

Markets

The markets are the same now as they were five or ten years ago because they keep changing-just like they did then.

Short-Term Trading

The elements of good trading are cutting losses, cutting losses, and cutting losses.

Outcomes

Win or lose, everybody gets what they want out of the market. Some people seem to like to lose, so they win by losing money.

I think that if people look deeply enough into their trading patterns, they find that, on balance, including all their goals, they are really getting what they want, even though they may not understand it or want to admit it.

Market Trends

The trend is your friend except at the end where it bends.

Charles Faulkner tells a story about Seykota’s finely honed intuition when it comes to trading: I am reminded of an experience that Ed Seykota shared with a group. He said that when he looks at a market, that everyone else thinks has exhausted its up trend, that is often when he likes to get in. When I asked him how he made this determination, he said he just puts the chart on the other side of the room and if it looked like it was going up, then he would buy it… Of course this trade was seen through the eyes of someone with deep insight into the market behavior.

Evaluating Yourself as a Trader

  
  Education
#  #  #  #  #  #  #  #  #  #  #  #  #  #  #

Here I’ve shortened and republished ten items for self-evaluation:

1) What is the quality of your self-talk while trading?

2) What work do you do on yourself and your trading while the market is closed?

3) How would your trading profit/loss profile change if you eliminated a few days where you lacked proper risk control?

4) Does the size of your positions reflect the opportunity you see in the market?

5) Are trading losses often followed by further trading losses due to frustration?

6) Do you cut winning trades short because, deep inside, you don’t think you’ll be able to achieve large profits?

7) Is trading making you happy, proud, fulfilled, and content, or does it more often leave you feeling unhappy, guilty, frustrated, and dissatisfied?

8) Are you making trades because the market is giving you opportunity, or are you placing trades to fulfill needs–for excitement, self-esteem, recognition–that aren’t being met in the rest of your life?

9) Are you seeking returns that are realistic given your level of experience and development?

10) Can you identify the specific edges you possess over the many other motivated, interested traders that fail to achieve success in the markets?

Many answers to trading problems begin by asking the right questions.
