A great book and a definite MUST read for a new trader. Read it a few times and will continue to do so.

Welcome to FF and thank you for the contribution. I enjoyed the bobsleigh references as I grew up close to Lake Placid. Back in the sixties we were allowed to ride down the Olympic bobrun from the halfway point if our parents signed a waiver. We would be planted safely in the center of an experienced four man team. Quite a thrill for a young kid.

Yes, Trading in the Zone is a great book. It is important to read it periodically, because in the interum, you will have had interactive and new emotional experiences with the market to draw upon and relate to. This will enhance your understanding of yourself and enable you to mesh your trading style and temperament with that of real market action at a higher level.

Bill, Glad you had a chance to go on a Bobsled ride. It is the most intense one minute you can experience.
Bill, Yes, to your pm question.

Regards,

I met Chris Lori and had the pleasure of dining with him after attending a seminar he was running. He is a very down to earth realistic trader. It was a real eye opener. He looks for confluence to create strong support or resistence and trades the bounce at these levels targeting 20 - 30 pips before taking 80% of the table and letting the remainder run in case of an extended trend. I cant vouch for the method because I never tried it. I scour these threads looking for the "grail' instead. Theres a lesson there I think, mayby not, dunno, wheres that new ma cross thread thats just started and looks promising?

Hi Houdini,

I was just sitting here and going through a few threads to relax my mind by reading and sometimes putting my 2 cents worth in, then I came across your thread and read the attachment I thought this might just be the anwser I was looking for.
You see I have a few students that think that the market will do what they want it to do, and no matter how much coaching I give them on what it takes to become a professional trader they smile at me and aknowledge my advice and then go and enter silly trades against the system that I taught them.
Anyway I believe that once they read this e-book it might wake them up a bit and give them access to who they are being when it comes to their trading.

So thanks Houdini for posting the e-book

cheers

He wrote the book on "Trading Psychology"

Ton of free articles here. Might want to save this for the weekend though.

Somewhere in there he explains 'Implicit Learning',... interesting.

what an excellent resource
I think this stuff is where the real focus should be rather than all the fuss about systems and techniques at this forum. I am going to read an article every time I see down to trade

Hi Gogetter,

I have found that one of the most important factors in a traders success is finding a system or strategy that fits their personality. I think this was also one of the key concepts that Jack Schwagger said he observed from all the interviews he did when writing his market wizards books.

So anyway one more thing to consider if you haven't already as a potential reason why traders are having a hard time following your system is because it does not fit them. Anyhow just a thought, I could be way off base. Best of luck.
