Have you had benefits from psychological work in your trading?

  1. Is that a book you'd recommend, @schizo?

    I'm interested in picking up a book or two in this genre to see if I can find any value from it.

  2. you will only find value where it truly lies, and that's less likely to be in a book. but there is one. Pick up Shull's Market Mind Games and give it a go. shouldn't take you long, you're by all measures a pretty smart person. it's obviously an intro for the rest of her work, but she's THE leader in performance psych for a reason. a lot of reasons actually.

    I could post so much more but better to let the expert do the talking.

  4. if you're unaware of Denise Shull, she was the real-life inspiration for Wendy's character in Billions. I don't think the BDSM applies, but I'm not privy to that lmao. Denise was(/is?) in litigation with the creators of the show after they allegedly stiffed her on payment or something like that.

    regardless, she's the real deal.

  5. %%
    Exactly;
    T Basso of TrendStat said if your beliefs don't prove useful= change them.
    Dr van Tharp, i dont know what he charged for his counsel?
    Lucy in Peanuts charged $00.25; maybe a bit more Canadian /LOL.
    But also you have to watch out for market changes\
    Dr van Tharp mentioned a 1000 round or 1000 yard shooting match + winners. now the brass sells for much more ...........................................................
