Be Proactive and Not Reactive

#  #  #  #  #  #  #

If you want to stay positive even after some losing trades, then it’s also worth taking a proactive approach to losing -as oppose to being reactive to it.

For many, they use the visualising technique. This involves relaxing and trying to see yourself already having lost the trade before it happens. This is some what similar to having no expectations but you make an effort to mentally rehearse the lost. By rehearsing it, you will include your emotions in the rehearsal and start to anticipate how you will feel so that you will not react to it if it does happen.

Many Master Traders probably do not use this technique but they have gone through enough winners and losers to know how they feel. In my view, that is an reactive approach and that is in line with my next point below.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that visualisation is the best way. But I’m suggesting that you should find the method that best fits your personality. And, to me, that is being proactive.

10rules

1. Learn to function in a tense, unstructured, and unpredictable environment.
2. Be an independent thinker versus a conventional thinker.
3. Work out a way to handle your emotions and maintain objectivity.
4. Don’t rely on hope and fear in the conventional sense.
5. Work continuously to improve yourself, giving importance to self-examination and recognizing that your personality and way of responding to events are a critical part of the game. This requires continuous coaching.
6. Modify your normal responses to certain events.
7. Be willing to face problems, understand them, and recognize that they are in some way related to your behavior.
8. Know when problems can be resolved and then apply methods to solve them. That may mean giving up some control in order to gain a different control. It may mean changes in your personality, learning self-reliance, or giving up independence and ego to become part of a trading team.
9. Understand the larger framework in which trading occurs— how the complexity of the marketplace and your personality both must be taken into account in order to develop the mastery of trading.
10. Develop the right mind-set for trading—a willingness to commit to the kinds of changes in personal habits and beliefs that will drastically alter your life. To do this requires a willingness to surrender to the forces of the game. In order to be able to play at a maximum level, you have to let go of your ego and your need to have things your way.

#  #  #  #  #  #

loser-traderThe composite of a losing trader would be someone who is highly stressed and has little protection from stress, has a negative outlook on life and expects the worst, has a lot of conflict in her/her personality, and blames others when things go wrong. Such a person would not have a set of rules to guide their behavior and would be more likely to be a crowd follower. In addition, losing traders tend to be disorganized and impatient.
