The Moment of Truth
Free Offer
So you have learned how to trade the markets by mastering a few trading tools like Moving Averages, Channels, Stochastics, MACD, or RSI – that is a great accomplishment achieved by only a few. But having the tools and rules to potentially trade markets successfully, year in and year out, is only half of the challenge. The other half is far more daunting and achieved by even fewer investors – I am talking about good old fashioned discipline. That is, discipline to follow your indicators and rules without fail – every trade entry and every trade exit. This is the ‘moment of truth’ in the life of every trader or investor.
Here is a test. Are you able to consistently pull the trigger on your sell signal when all the ‘experts’ are screaming, ‘buy’? Do you ever give your stop loss a little more room because you can’t stand to lose, not even one trade, only to have the market gap open the next day against you? Are you always available during the trading day to follow your trades? Do you let your emotions cloud your thinking and cause you to violate your own trading rules in the ‘heat of battle’? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, you are absolutely normal and that’s the reason why it’s so difficult to trade successfully even with a good methodology. You may be your own worst enemy, when it comes to disciplined trading or investing.
Is there a remedy for this problem? Yes! One solution is to find a good mechanical trading system that has the potential to provide superior returns and a broker to trade it, verbatim, on your behalf. You will have instantly solved the discipline problem and increase your potential for success.
