    I like it Wallace. The guy seems to know what he is talking about.

    Thanks
     
  3. Good stuff, only problem is, I feel like I have read it everywhere else.

    Hopefully it could help a newbie though.

    Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas is a great book to compliment the above pdf.

    Well, hell, general rules are ok but they don't get you far and they don't get to the bottom line.

    These 7 are ok too although 4 & 6 are probably more pertinent.

    Positive self-belief is obvious but still you can see here and now some real loonies with manic optimism placed in their fantasy of a success beyond their aptitude while in fact they are burying themselves in all sorts of horsesh*t, sometimes for years, before they discover, if ever, some reality on how to trade accurately and with some small measure of success.

    And number 2 will probably take you in the wrong direction. Wannabes and sometimes longer term players are doing losing stuff or stuff that takes from the market a small part of its whole day offering .. presumably their systems are suited to them.
