Trading success is in large

part dictated by how you

think and act

One extremely important

one is to have faith in your

trading system

You decide to wing it

Others are not

so fortunate

Treat trading as a

professional career

2 Things You Can Do

Entries are not the most

important part of a trading plan

"You make your

money in the exits".

Support/Resistance

The trade plan follows the

"trade the trend until it

bends" mantra

The good thing is that this

trader takes the loss as a

part of doing business

COMPLEX CORRECTION

1. On the short side, this trader was fully

involved in the loss as price blew right over the

entry price and through the stop price.

2. On the buy side, this trader ended up sitting

on the sidelines and missing the trade while

price screamed off to large 15 point rally.

The trader finally decided to alter

the trade plan and use stop

orders once price reached a

zone of opportunity.

It also prevents you from

seeing this quick loss

compounded by a 15

point move!
