Great Quotes From Warren Buffet


  1. When we are young we tend to spend all the income we get. And the quicker we can realize that we should save some of it to invest in creating a second source of income, the better. This will help us to reduce our dependence on our job and have a more stress-free life.

What is the Key To Success?

Habits are the keys to success in every aspect of our life as well as in trading. How to develop strong habits? The answer is – through consistency. Whatever you do consistently becomes a habit. If you consistently go to bed early and wake up early, it becomes a habit. If you consistently use a risk management plan and stick to your trading strategy without over-trading, you are likely to develop some very powerful trading habits that will result in becoming a successful trader.
Thus, consistenc…

Information overload

Our brain is like a sponge. Sponge absorbs water until it gets fully saturated and after that there is no sense to put more into it as it will start leaking.
Our brain absorbs the information it receives and when it hits a mental saturation point you should better stop as too full brain may cause the following signs.
  • making mistakes
  • forgetting to do something
  • becoming indecisive
  • becoming unproductive
  • procrastinating
  • getting stressed out

How to Stay Mentally Focused While Trading

Live trading requires a high level of situational awareness to quickly make important decisions based on the sheer amount of information available to them and as the traders also face a number of distractions while processing that information, it can be quite difficult for them to focus their attention and react timely in the markets.
Live trading also involves going from long and slow periods of inactivity to fast and dynamic cycles that require instant action and it is very important not to lo…

Why People Tend to Lose Discipline

The main reason why people lose their discipline is that they are not able to sacrifice short-term pleasures for long-term rewards. It means our current mood, current needs and current state of mind usually exceed our intentions for longer range and there are also some factors such as boredom, fatigue, impulsivity, overconfidence, low confidence, etc. that negatively affect our ability to be fully intentional.
But what makes people lose their discipline? The answer is distractions.

The Truth About Trading Psychology. Part 2

As I wrote in the last blog trading is a performance field and in any performance field people spend less time on actually performing than on practicing that performance. And unfortunately some people think that on-the-job training will be enough. But the reality shows them that their accounts aren’t always able to survive their learning curves.
There is a myth that lack of self-discipline is the main cause of failure. However, if a trader blows away his/her account it doesn’t mean that he/she i…

The Truth About Trading Psychology. Part 1

Trading is a performance arena and success is a result of using inborn abilities (talents) and acquired competencies (skills), and a perfect emotional self-control can’t on itself turn someone into a successful trader. But if that someone possesses the necessary talents and skills for success, then psychological factors become crucial, however, they cannot replace those talents and skills.
The goal of trading psychology is not just about increasing discipline and reducing emotions. Its goal is t…
