When I decided to write a review of this book, I thought that the best review is to present to you my outlook on trading after reading it, and you will see how it has influenced my life and trading from within me. It is the only way I could think to do it justice without just saying its great buy it. Don't take my word for it either, others have sung its praises on this forum and others.
Suspend your judgement and forget about everything you have learned and consider these things...
Left Brain Trading is a synthesis of mindset and technique, right and left brain thinking. It is about developign the traders mindset, and then applying that to an excellent technique. Nothing that we can create and verify for ourselves is too good to be true. Forex itself seems to be too good to be true and we all salivate over it. But we struggle to achieve succes in it, because it is unlike anything else, and we do not have the right stuff inside yet usually.
Lewis says keep it simple. Develop the right mindset first. Learn what the masters do differently, they think differently!
They have the same price information we do, they do the same things we do, they just have the right mindset. There are guys out there trading for years that still aren't trading at their full potential, and thanks to people like Lewis and Olga, newcomers and experts alike are getting complete satisfaction and wholeness out of their lives and their trading.
This stuff is serious. It is the only think that can possibly hold you back long term. Isn't it? So this book gives you this information. Take it, immerse yourself in it, and believe in yourself you can be happy all the time while you are trading, that you never have to feel emotional pain, or experience a major drawdown again. It is possible, and when you have the right mindset, it's probable!
The Golden ratio is a mathmatical phenomenon that shapes the stars, our bodies, and I believe our minds. What the LBT course suggests, and I wholeheartly agree, is that when you apply the fibbonaci ratios of natural perfection and growth to your mindset, you open up a channel of positive energy in your life that can give you everything you need.
My friends it is not the market that we are interacting with, we are primarily working with our minds and emotions at the end of the day. We are watching not merely bulls and bears, but really we are watching the universe move. Currency is fundamental to the structure of the entire world. Movements in currency reflect the fibbonaci ratios, because en masse, the world creates in them with it's thoughts.
Consider this my friends before you balk and return to your stress balls, upset stomachs and artifical joys that are part of your limited mindset and coping skills. If we feel this makes perfect sense, that is very different than applying it to our lives. This is not only the only reason we do not succeed in trading, it is the reason we fail in relationships, health, and generally in getting anything we want. Taking 100% responsibility is the only way to truly take control of your life and your destiny. Also, connecting with yourself and accepting the truth about who you are and what is really going on in your life is the only way to free yourself from where you are.
The book goes into more detail about how to apply this in your trading etc...
Oh the technique aspect? It is truly original and powerful. The mindset has been writin about, (all too infrequently) but the technique is very original. It is not a system as much as it is a framework, you can use it in tandem with any system, but you can use only the framework to trade as Lewis himself does. There is a good private forum that comes with the purchase of the book. Available are 1 on 1 consultations with Lewis and Olga, and CD-ROM is in the works.
Truly, once you have the mindset, part of having it is learning the technique and applying it properly. Like they say, when you've got it inside everything outside falls into place...
Good Luck!
