The day to day psychology of a trader

Discussion in 'Psychology' started by smallStops, Feb 19, 2015.

  1. Interesting readings :


    "Just now at an event : and guess what ???
    - the one with a sense of "guilt" invited herself via a "hired mouth".
    - the perfectionist as well
    - the one with a 2 years old kid as well
    All of this is starting to become really pathetic
    They also have no retenue
    I am really stunned about that.
    When I think there are more than 2,000 billionnaires worldwide,
    more than 1 million millionnaires worldwide,
    more than 200 000 people with a prince and princess "title"
    And these bunch of people can't move on!
    Also, after 5 years of harassing someone ( me), how comes they are not the most "bonheur" , "happy" people in the world?
    harassing without any mercy, and they are not living in blissful happiness?
    Damn , I really do not know what to make of it.
    Just to think "God works in mysterious ways""


    - should provoking someone's ( 4 people ) early death creates guilt , or is God foolish ?
    - should merciless harassment for 5 years ( some people get less jail time) create much unluck, or is God foolish?
    - should total and repeated disrespect bring much unhappiness, or is God foolish?


    May be Karma is starting to do its work.
    Anyway, thanks a LOT for those who stepped in and help sort all this "saga".

    Funnily enough, after having killed ( provoking 4 people's deaths), these same people
    are afraid of dying ! LOL

  2. "Monitor stress and negativity" ==> 2 days of meditation and no trading!

  3. There is one solution to end this harassment :

    Whoever found these stalking women ( in a psychiatric ward I'd guess) :
    go to a psychiatric ward and match each stalker with 10 to 40 psychos.

    I can't see any other solution : only mad stalking men will match mad stalking women

  4. I definitively deserve to listen to some repetitive song.
    Foolish of me to break these 3 days of calm & meditation, by accepting to join
    a master pro into some " street intervention". I have great admiration for
    what these pro do, but for sure I will not be able to get involved into something
    like that again. Madness at its highest!
    And as the pro said "some people forget that God does exist".

    I seriously thought I was strong, but seeing what I have seen today,
    I can understand why some people "check out", and prefer staying in a bouddhist,
    catholic, and other denomination monastries for as long as possible.

    Now the effects of this "street" experience : I definitively prefer trading. :D:D:D:D:D:D
    The emotions of trading are actually very "soft" emotions: I now think
    I will be able to handle any overconfidence very well. :D:D:D.
    I can not understand why I had overconfidence "issues". Keep a trading improvement
    list, and the overconfidence is no longer a problem.
    The negativity : I can not understand why be negative as I am really lucky
    to be able to trade.
    The stress : the one to control is obviously external stress.
    So I can only do my best to identify it, stop trading and meditate.

    Today's experience has definitively widen my "wisdom".

  5. It seems we are still clearing up some mess here.
    Very easy to destroy, very slow to build. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    So for things to be clear here :

    * No sorry, I have NOT met you, nor your friend, nor your
    family, nor financé.
    * No sorry, I am absolutely NOT fat at all, but very thin
    * No sorry, I have not changed haircut: this is the same
    haircut I have had since September 2014.

    * No sorry, I do NOT have any "blue Bible"
    * No sorry, I do NOT have any "roseraie" either.

    * No sorry, I do not meditate legs straight: I fold them
    around "lotus" position.

    As I explained : the "females" and their accomplices used
    look-alikes. Obviously, these look-alikes do not wish to
    leave the comfort of a Western Country.

    So now, with the 4 deaths, you can understand why I was extremely
    angry at the "mess" you or your friend or the frend of your friend have brought.

    The best thing you can do again : report to the POLICE.
    Every detail counts.
    Thank you in advance for your collaboration. :):):)

  6. I might as well gained understanding/improvements for the trading from everyday's experiences.

    So here the book of Job



    This is for great traders, who suddenly mess up big time, and can't seem to get going.
    Continuing to do the right thing as a trader, inspite of setbacks.

    It is my understanding that many have problems to understand "suffering".
    Those who going through the 10 commandements ( of traders) an,d fail, understand why they fail.
    Now , those who believe , they go through the 10 commandments ( of traders), and do not understand why they fail : the Job story has some lessons.

  7. * Some say, because I have suffered , then this is why I commit crimes and abominations

    Trader talk: because I have losses, then this is why I do no longer follow the trading rules ( overtrading, revenge trading, changing the way of trading, etc...)

    Job story is a real problem for such mentality:
    - here is a righteous person, Job, who suffers greatly, BUT still do not commit or add any crimes he had never committed before.
    - he obviously has suffered than any of you, BUT still does not find any
    escuses to commit crimes and abominations : so can you repeat again
    your reasons for committing crimes and abominations?

    So trader talk: losses are not an escuse nor justification to break the rules.

    Interesting that the Bible can also be used for trading!
    :D:D:D:D Human psychology is still the same

  8. It looks like the Book of Job is bringing "difficulties" to some.

    Issues of Theodicity ( "why bad things happen to good people",
    "why God allows evil",...) , issues of the "prosperity gospel" ( actually
    deep down an heretic theology), and other issues raised.

    Now, let's look more deeply to the Book of Job.

  9. To be honest, I would have never thought that trading would lead me to study the Bible so carefully! :):):)
    Human nature does not change : and where else is human nature so well recorded than the Bible? More than 2000 years of illustration of human nature. May be I should have done theology.

    So this "Book of Job" part2 : understanding it for improving trader's psychology.

  10. Apparently some traders (?) do not manage to understand why "The Book of Job" is useful for Traders.
    And, obviously, do not feel ( their opinion) that such "Book of Job" should feature in a trading forum. lol.

    As someone said "they read, but can not understand;
    they hear but can not understand, ..."

    Here we go :
    * God : Market
    * Job: Trader
    * Vertus: following Trading Rules
    * Satan : Satan
    * His friends : Other traders

    Job was following the trading rules, and was doing great.
    Then Satan, came and mention that Job is following the rules because he is winning.
    Who would not ?
    Thus the market changed, Job felt some huge losses.
    His friends obviously pointed out that if he followed the rules, surely he would still win.
    They are indeed right ( God Justice always arrives, or breaking the trading rules always leads to
    failures in the Market sooner or later: all is just a question of time).
    He needs to check where he is failing in following the rules.
    Job defends himself saying he is still following the same rules.
    Job continues following the rules.
    Job keeps losing.
    The Job can't take it anymore and list to the market all the trading rules
    he has never broken.
    Then the Market points out to him what the Market does.
    The Market makes the choice of revealing itself to Job as the Market thinks Job is worth it
    ( Job to the Market's reckoning has always followed the trading rules).
    When Job really sees the Market, he understands how foolish he was : indeed,
    he understands that , as the Merket pointed out, he Job could never do such
    a good job as the Market does.
    Back to trading following the rules, now with an understanding of the Market
    His wealth is restored and doubled back.

    Let's watch another version of the "Book of Job" - this one is 6hours of study.
    I might watch it in bits.



    I have yet to fully study the mindset of Satan. Obviously its methods are clear
    ( always based on the "sin from the tongue" , misleading others, etc...), so as to create
    wrong mindsets, wrong attitudes, wrong beliefs, wrong understandings and wrong actions.
    Here : Job being accused of sins when he was blameless ( even from God's perspective)
    Job being accused of breaking the trading rules when he did not.
    Here : all around, there was pressure for Job to do wrong actions ( saying he had sinned
    when he had not, or saying that he broke the trading rules when he had not).
