Surviving a Trading Blowup

Here's the best thing I've ever found on how to survive a trading blow-up. It's an hour-long video course from the CME -- all you have to do is to provide your email address. http://www.hotcomm.com/virmeetCID_EW...MID=ZGXDCA&UID=

Hope this helps, because we've all been there!

Just watched.

This is a MUST-WATCH piece of information. Thanks for posting...

And this is huge: all of us will have a (minor or major) blow up. The question is how to deal with it not to become another trading statistics...

Awesome.

If your like me and don't want to give your email address....you can use any email address and it will work.

Thanks for the link - very good information - also poking around on the cbot site and there seems to be lots of webinars - look forward to browsing.

I watched this video and I felt like she was speaking to me. I did everything she said at one point or another. The forex trading "game" is all about mastering yourself,not necessarilly the market, since the market is basically the emotional reflection of the players in it. Great Video. Thanks for the post.

Thanks for posting this link. A great video.

check out this interview from the archive. Really good.

I took a long time to find this thread again... So I'm posting just to bring it up in the rank...

Helped me a lot

This video probably saved my trading career. After an extreme blowout, when I actually went through over half of my account in one session, I was feeling so defeated that I was going to hang it up. This got me back in shape enough to get back into the game, and how to do it right.

Surprisingly, even though it was a while ago that I watched this and took detailed notes, there a couple of key phrases, or principles from this video that echo through my mind when trading, like some kind of background sound-track, that have really helped keep me from making the same mistake that I made that one horrible session.

Better than the laugh-track which I would have been carrying with me, had I quit trading.

I just watched it....

Really great post backinblack!!!!

Thanks

Thanks for this post. I've been searching for John Carter's webinars on creating an annual trading plan and I found it here. Very good stuff.

thanks for the link, going to watch it carefully as it might happen to anyone.

edit : i think i have allready seen one video of this woman and she is a great trading coach. The prevous one was about psychology.

3. Open the windows media player (Start > Run > wmplayer )
4. Open the extracted file via file > open

That was a good one, she gives some good techniques to keep those negative emotions and bad trading patterns in check. I actually have a page of notes from that one.

FYI
