You just have to deal with it. But there are times where your conviction levels go through the roof. You know damned well that should should be trading. You are comfortable with what you see. Are you taking action?There are other times where your
conviction level is low, or not there at all. There is a split second cue in the back of your brain that says “I don’t know what is going on here”. Are you listening to it and backing off? Or are you letting your conscious mind, emotions/greed etc. take over?
The probability for a successful outcome shares a positive correlation with what level your ‘conviction meter’ is. If its high, your chances of a successful outcome increase. If low, you can imagine just as poor of a result.
Listen to your level of conviction. If it is strong, act upon it. If weak or in question, don’t do anything at all. Typically, you have a short window of opportunity to decide where you stand. Take advantage of it.
