Hey colleagues , I'm a private Future trader (DAX Future, intraday) and European nomad. In 2016 I left a twenty year corporate career. Last year, I needed to clear my brain fog and wrote a manuscript in search of constant profitability. I found a way to structure the trading journey in more detail and what is important at what stage. I realized where my trading was stuck, what I needed to let go and what to prepare for to get to the next level. This manuscript got very favorable reviews from fellow traders. Thus I decided to publish it as a paperback (will be in May). In addition I decided to contribute a digital version for free. Read/subscribe the serialised format at https://thetradersjourney.substack.com/. The content is about our journey and how to deal with it. Agnostic to markets or tools. Mindset. Pathfinding. About the Journey and its Destination The Characteristics of the Journey First stages: From Euphoria to Darkness Decision stages: Doing the Work / Paradigm Shift Advancing: Turning Pro / Entering The Zone I wrote this book for me and my inner demons of trading. It’s my way to process and to come to terms with what “we” experienced on the enduring journey. And to carve out what I actually learned. Nevertheless, this book aims to support all new, lost and aspiring traders to find their path as consistently profitable traders (CPTs) or through providing insight to turn to a different venture ("not for me"). Enjoy & much success for the journey of yours! Jens
