Free Trader Training - You Can’t Fool Your Subconscious
Filed under: Trader Mentoring, forex trading strategy, psychology of trading
You can’t fool your subconscious.
Huh-uh.
No way.
No how.
No matter how you might hide it from everyone else, your subconscious always knows - always.
I remember when I first started trading and I’d hit a decent winning spell. I’d start feeling like I had a good handle on it and was on my way.
But at the time I’d been making largely on luck, much more so than skill.
And every time I’d have a decent run and I’d get feeling a bit cocky, my subconscious will step in and have me hand it back - because I hadn’t really earned it.
Sound at all familiar?
One of the things I eventually figured out in the repeating the above cycle was that buying a new trading system doesn’t fix this kind of problem.
Neither do ‘trading psychology’ tricks, drills or subliminal gimmicks.
You see, I couldn’t fool my subconscious.
It knew that I still hadn’t acquired and developed the skills to be a truly proficient trader, to deal with the realities of trading.
It is an entirely different matter to know how to do it well.
And at the time, I didn’t even really understand what I needed to get good at, besides of course execution and sticking to my trading system.
That’s why I feel for the whole ‘Discipline’ fallacy, like most everyone else.
But it’s not a matter of discipline, it’s about becoming the trader with the skills, know-how, and tools to have the real confidence.
When I discovered and developed the skills to become a real professional, to be good at trading, but with a very conscious competence…
…that’s when things changed.
It was when I changed, not just picking up another tool.
When I changed, my subconscious knew it - and finally let me enjoy real success.
Only when I changed what I’d been doing, when I stopped looking for more tools and chose to become a more solid trader…
…only then did my subconscious stop sabotaging my efforts.
I’m sure the same is true for you.
If you want to put an END to self-sabotage in your trading, then doesn’t it make sense to get the training that will transform you into the type of trader?

[Free Trader Training] Why It’s A Mistake To Be A Courageous Trader
To even consider being a trader takes guts, that’s for sure.
Problem is, being courageous as a trader is really a red flag.
Here’s why.
You see, courage is taking action in the face of fear, in spite of it.
And trading from a position of fear is not a desirable way to trade at all.
If you have genuine fears, not just a little excitement from the anticipation of getting on with your trading day, then that is a sign that a real problem exists…
…a problem that will wind up costing you.
What kind of fears?
- The fear of losing money (or capital)
- The fear of failure
- The fear of making mistakes
…just to name a few.
Fortunately, there is a simple and direct way to become free of your fear.
That’s right. Instead of feeling fearful and anxious about your trading, you really can feel very at peace and secure.
It’s all about replacing your fear with real and well-founded confidence.
That’s why the addage “Treat your trading as a business” is so critical to being able to trade with true confidence, rather than hope and courage.
This approach gives you the full confidence that you are trading in a calculated and knowing manner.
Now, there are certain elements and processes involved in treating your trading as a real business, and a proper business plan is at the heart of it all.
The word “proper” is the operative term in that statement. Most traders make the mistake of having “make lots of money” as their business plan, and that’s all. That’s not a business plan by any means.
To have real confidence in your trading operation, discover the trader training program specifically designed to walk you through the steps of properly organizing your trading business, including the creation of your own personal Trading Business Plan,
When you don’t treat your trading as a business, you’re running on hope and faith, which leave you open to all sorts of fears and other emotions.
When you are properly organized and prepared, you have true confidence in what you’re doing - and you no longer have need for courage because your fears have been addressed.
It is truly the best way to trade!

Psychology of Trading Forex - Manage Your Beliefs, Control Your Trading
I’ve got another excellent video for you today from Head Trader Todd Brown of TripleThreatFX.
In today’s video, Todd gives you insights on how to:
“Manage your belief systems and control your trading”
Here’s his message before you watch it,
What are your belief systems behind your trading? Do you
believe you can truly be successful? Because what you feel
about your trading plan has a direct influence on your results.
Your future in trading depends on your belief in the power
of the model and the strategy. I put together this video “SysTrain
Session from Dynamic Structure Training Series” to explain
this to you in great detail.
http://www.triplethreatfx.com/blog/
In this next video you will learn the 5 following points:
1. Developing a strong belief in your trading system.
2. What your brain sees when looking for the optimal
conditions when entering a trade.
3. How the “IF” in the conditional process is essential.
4. Applying the “WHEN” factor.
5. Combining both the “IF” with the “WHEN” together.
A sound trading strategy requires walking through the entries,
stops and targets. In order to see if it is a good strategy, there
will be a string of winners, losers and sideways equity.
You will learn to familiarize and accept the above three conditions
and how they are the components of absolute truth behind any
trading system you will ever see.
Simply click on the link below to be taken to the video blog
where you can watch the video and I welcome your comments
and questions as well.

Trading Psychology Article - A Costly Mistake Many Traders Make
There’s one mistake that I see traders make over and over that causes them to stay on the not-so-fun roller coaster with their trading
They reach a high enough frustration point that they go and get a book (or 2 or 3) on trading psychology, put loads of focus on it, make some good progress, then they just focus on the trades and making money.
It doesn’t take long, especially after a win streak, to fall back into the sloppy trading again after a relatively short period of time.
Because managing your state isn’t something that you attend to once, set it and forget it.
Keeping yourself mentally on top of your game takes regular, consistent focus.
Plus, since we as humans are rather complex creatures, there’s a rather long list of pitfalls and potential problems that can affect your trading and your general quality of life.
The first step is to get your arms around the known problem(s) at hand.
That’s why I created the Trader’s Guide to Emotional Management, to help you address whatever is making your trading life difficult right now.
The second step is to get on-going support to keep you at your best. That’s why the Trading Psychology Coach is such an important resource for your continued success.
In the Trading Psychology Coach, the trader’s publication which you receive twice monthly, you get a trader’s perspective on such topics as:
- The Fear of Success
- Improving Your Consistency
- Shoring Up Your Confidence
- Creating Gravity In Your Trading
- Instilling World-Class Attributes Into Your Trading
- Brain Chemistry
- Dealing with Depression
- And others…
What to do right now…
Subscribe to the Trading Psychology Coach and you get the Trader’s Guide to Emotional Management as an instant bonus
Plus you also get Instant Access to the video,
-
PLUS there are additional bonuses that come with the Trader’s Guide, which make this the resource to get right now to bring your best to your trading.
DON’T make the mistake of trying to play the ’set and forget’ game with your mental state when it comes to trading. The frustration and losses just aren’t worth it.
Make your life simple and do yourself the favor (besides this is incredibly cheap).
If you have any questions, just let me know.
Cheers
