Lol, here's the simple answer to trading psychology...Just don't do it. Like anti-Nike and stuff.

 

I am not sure if it is better or worse but it's a must-read as well. Perhaps in comparison, Douglas is more rambly where Steenbarger is more pointed and more densely packed with things you can take action on.

 

I don't know Overnight, psychological issues are not really trading related, don't you think? You start digging and goes deep inside. Scary sh*t. Gotta be a good song for that - I don't mind

 

Hell no! I didn't have a mentor, figured it out just fine. Took years but did it without anyone's help. No books and a few youtube videos. I learnt Nadex first so i would say that was my mentor.

 

That’s y it took you years when it can take less time with a good mentor.

 

Even though I was mildly successful after about a year, I've always been a perfectionist. Thats why.

 

well, in the video...his argument is...do olympic swimmer just learn to swim by themselve? did tiger wood all of a sudden learn go out to the golf course with a club and started to swing and play golf by himself? did all these great athlete pick up a book and learn to do all of this just by reading a book w/o any mentor in their life?
