Law of Attraction-based trading system

"Change the way you look at things, and the things you look at change"


In my personal journey to "beat" the markets I have studied tens of different "proven" systems.
None of them ever worked for me..

Later on, life experience taught me that we receive what we believe in, without limits or exceptions except for the ones we impose on ourselves.

This is also the case in trading: Trading shows us and reinforces our own internal subconscious beliefs that we have about money. These beliefs are 100% responsible for the results, not math, statistics, coincidence, bad luck, etc.

My "trading system" is not a system which tells you exactly when to enter, when to exit, money management etc etc... In fact: You could use any system as all systems work and don't work. One could even use astrology and be succesful...

My system is completely and solely developed around the principles of the law of attraction, specifically applied to trading.

It consists of a set of guidelines and measures that help to make the right decisions at the right moment and I am eager to share and discuss it here with anyone who is interested.

I will make everything more clear soon and I welcome all constructive reactions, remarks and questions.

Thank you,
Ivo

very interesting thread....yeas, law of attraction is something present in the whole universe as well as other laws we still are not aware of and they affect humans too as well as everything else in the universe; so they are true even for trading. I'm very curious to see what will come up from this thread.
Cheers

Thank you all for your positive reactions and willingness to participate in this thread.

Law of attraction says that we always receive that which we give our emotional attention to. If we allow it.

Our subconscious / the universe works with images, and there is no image for what we don't want, only for what we do want. The only way to not get what we don't want is to focus on the other end of the spectrum: On what we desire or do want.

This is the only way to make what we don't want disappear, have the universe work for us and start receiving. Defining what we want is the first stage but for many traders this is where it goes wrong because of their focus on "stops" and on "avoiding losses" assuming the profits come automatically. Sounds logical, but this doesn't work. Giving attention (by fear) to "avoiding losses" will provide exactly that: losses, simply because of paying attention to the idea "losses".

The universe does not know words like: avoid, not, no, don't, never. This is exactly why people in life (and in trading) receive what they fear most after which the fear gets bigger and more of the same is received. And then we have a negative vicious circle, creation of bad habits (addiction to negative emotions). This is exactly the opposite of what we want.

If what we want are big profits, then we have to give our attention to the idea of "big profits" each and every time we put on a trade. After that we have to detach, so we allow the universe to give us what we asked for. If we make a big deal out of it we are not in the right state of mind to receive or make the right decisions. The market cannot affect us... we master the market, by mastering ourselves.

Later more on how to ask, allow and detach.

Thanks,
Ivo

Great post!!!

It is not up to the system to make us the profit, but the trader himself. The trader employs tools to capture profit and manage risk based on his mind set and what he is attracting.
