Win By Living In The Present Moment

The Holidays are upon us. That means the year is closing. How is your trading going?

Are you winning the battle of profitability?

The dream of trading often does not make sense. You know how to trade – you can talk the game as if you knew what you are doing. But when you look at your potential profitability, are you walking the walk that you can talk about?

If you are a regular human being, probably not.

Why can’t you cross that invisible line and live in the land of trading profitability?

Most likely because you do not understand what you walked into when you chose trading as a career.

It is not what it seems.

On the surface, it looks straightforward. They told you that all you have to do is build a trading system that gives you an edge and keep at it. No worries, probabilities will take care of the money. That’s the talk. The reality is not so apparent.

You try to win by all the usual success strategies – working hard, learning the trade, positive thinking – and beyond. But the trading gods don’t seem to be listening. What’s going on?

The truth is that your notion of winning is going to have to change.

Practically everything you learned about success does not work in the reality of trading.

No matter how successful you have been in the past, trading turns everything upside down. Trading demands a different mindset for success than anything else you have ever done.

Look at the dismal success rate in trading and you will see this born out. People keep trying to bring into trading the same old processes and outlooks that brought success to other areas of their life – and they find the same rules simply don’t apply.

It is your ideas of success, winning, not losing, and failure that have to change in order for you to develop the mind that works calmly in the presence of uncertainty and risk – especially when you do not have control over the outcome, no matter how hard you try or how much you will yourself to win.

It’s a different ball game than you knew. And using the same rules is not going to work.

The ancient part of your brain, called the Emotional Brain, operates outside the awareness of your Thinking Brain.

It does not appear to be this way. But in trading, things are not the way they seem. Hardly ever.

Yet you keep attempting to force trading to conform to the way you perceive the world. The problem is that most of the decisions that you make, especially under pressure, are not made by your Thinking Brain.

No, 95% of the decisions you make under pressure are assigned to your Emotional Brain – of which you are not aware. And what’s important to the Emotional Brain is survival of the organism (that’s you) in the short term.

Thinking does not even enter the equation in these cases. And these are the vast number of cases that you experience as a trader, making decisions about probability with money on the line.

Do you see the problem? You (as a conscious self) are clueless about what is actually forcing the decision for you to act under pressure. You are clueless about what creates success and failure in the very endeavor within which you are attempting to conquer. This is a formula for financial disaster that you need to learn how to avoid.

But how?
