I must be missing something. If you haven't read the book, how can you know what it emphasized? The basis of trading in the zone is a consistently profitable trading strategy. Without that, the book makes no sense and has no point.
Ok. What you say is exactly what went through my mind in reading his previous book in which I found he gave very little (almost trivialized) this point. Kind regards, MK
However, this isn't about The Disciplined Trader. Without a consistently profitable trading strategy, one is left with chanting and amulets. Those are not likely to be helpful.
