AT THE CLOSE
Mental balance is crucial to trading and investing successfully, yet so challenging to master. Here’s how you can master it.
Predicting price direction in the financial markets is risky. If you follow someone else’s advice and jump into a trade too early or too late, it can end up being a bad investment. To avoid getting into such a situation, many traders develop trading systems before they start trading. If you use a method or system for your trading, you must know it inside and out. Knowing your system can make a big difference in your trading results. You need to test it, test it, and test it some more over at least a two-year period. Traders who go through this process are putting their knowledge to use, always striving to learn more, and relying on their skills. By doing so, they are bringing themselves into balance.
BOOST YOUR KNOWLEDGE
There are many ways to increase your knowledge level, such as attending webinars, investment courses, and seminars; reading books and printed periodicals like this one; and consulting blogs. Since these can provide you with access to a wealth of information and boost your knowledge, it’s good to set aside some time every day to increase your trading knowledge. This can bring about balance in your life as well.
