Become a savvy trader with a ‘mindful’ edge…
Trader Mind is an essential resource for understanding and applying
mindfulness-based approaches that help to enhance an individual
trader’s overall performance. Based upon extensive research and
practical application in the real world of the trading floor,
Trader Mind includes methods, tactics and techniques to build and
enhance awareness and insight, which help manage thoughts and
emotions and maximize trading performance.
The author demonstrates how to overcome habitual or impulsive
trading behaviours, manage energy levels, become more attuned to
and responsive to the market, more situationally aware and build
patterns of effective trading behaviour. By developing these skills
and good behaviours, traders can overcome inherent biases and,
ultimately, improve their trading decisions.
The techniques outlined in Trader Mind can be utilized as core
competencies of trading psychology or can be used to complement
other behavioural methods and strategies. The Trader Mind tool-set
does not replace the need for basic trading skills, knowledge,
strategy, or key performance enablers such as preparation and
performance analysis. Rather, Trader Mind is designed to act as a
facilitator or multiplier to enhance trader decision-making and
improve overall performance. ‘A thoughtful read with ‘bang-for-the
buck’ practical strategies for time pressed traders.’ – Linda
Raschke, President at LBRGroup, Inc., CTA
Also includes the Trader Mind 8 Week Training Program.
