The more you trade, the more you may discover, like I did, that forex trading, or the market itself is a ‘mental game’. I don’t mean by that that you will end up with withering muscles and a sore ass from lack of movement for days on end, 24 hours per day (you might)…but I mean at the level where at some point you [insert your name right here] are going to have to connect with the market - the stuff that seems to be outside of you most probably - and participate. Your participation is either going to help YOU or it is going to help OTHERS. I prefer to think positive, so actually, if you are really committed to mastery here, you’ll begin to realise that all of your trades, no exception are leading you towards that mastery. Just suppose each and every trade you make were a lesson to help you to improve in your trading, not only that, but in every area of your life. For me, this attitude makes trading totally FUN and EXCITING because it becomes a positive ANCHOR and not a chore or job PLUS by learning and asking the question “what can I learn from this” on every single trade I ever place in the market, I get to realise where in my life I can have more fun, adventure, time for friends and family, excitement, joy, peace, health etc. making the whole thing a HOLISTIC TRADING EXPERIENCE. I highly recommend you become a HOLISTIC FOREX TRADER for yourself, for others and to create a whole new dimension of enjoyment, prosperity and pleasure in your life…doing this right now. I cannot begin to describe the real HOPE I have because of learning how to trade the forex market what I would really call correctly, though I would concede that may be there is not any particular correct way, just so long as it makes you a lot of money.
So where is your FOREX TRADING MUSCLE? If this is a mental game like I said, that means that you need to start listening to what’s going on in that head of yours. Have you noticed sometimes that you get in to trades because you listened to a particular voice in your head. This is not written to drive anyone to the psychiatric hospital, I mean have you found that when you’re really clear, your mind just leads you in to good trades and it feels like life is unfolding really well?If not, get listening to the market. I find the more I trade, the more the market literally “tells me” where the opportunities are. I’m sure this has a lot to do with developing unconscious competence in trading. You can begin to test this right away. How? By making a mental note of your emotions and thoughts throughout your trading day and seeing where the opportunities were and how aligned you were internally in terms of spotting the trades. The only bridge between that and winning consistently is integrating the correct intuition (internal prods or whatever you want to call it) with a risk appetite and good strategy for finding trades and you will be well on the way to a considerably brighter future…because it is good to have great intuitive knowing of how and when to trade and actually do it. Just do it then. By the way, in my newsletter for August 2007 (subscriptions available from http://www.fasttrackforex.com/letter - back issues become $500 after they have been sent out) write a short article in to the letter about JUST DO IT (a slogan used for a famous shoe company) and how gurus, mentors, charismatic churches and others talk of this…but that in instances - such as only knowing the half of the truth of forex, it may be wholly innappropriate, actually unwise in fact, to ‘just do it’…ok, end of lecture.
