Have you been doing “The Trader Shuffle”?
You know, where you try one thing, maybe a new system, feel like you’re making progress (step forward),
but then it doesn’t long for you to discover that it’s not working like you expected,
You hit a couple losing trades that you didn’t expect and so you decide to try to fix it, making adjustments on the fly
(this is the step back)
That rarely helps, usually only makes things worse, so pretty soon you not even really using that system any more
So now you blame yourself for not being disciplined and sticking to it, so you focus on discipline and ‘trading psychology’ trying to fix yourself (step to the side)
and then you realize that the system isn’t that great after all, and abandon it
So you go find another system (step forward)
and you keep dancing forward and back, but not really going anywhere
Months pass by and now you kick yourself because your fighting the same issues and nothing has changed
The way to finally step off the dance floor and move toward your goal is to take a step in a different direction, and take a completely different approach.
And that begins with REALIZATION
That maybe you’ve been missing the real problem, the underlying problem
The problem is that the systems you tried may have been based on good ideas or strategies,
But as systems go, they were flawed or broken
Fortunately, my years in Quality Assurance gave me the experience to be able to spot this, to identify WHAT is wrong, and what to do to make a system functional and get it working properly
You see, one thing people don’t realize is that a trading system is a business system.
And it was my full-time job to spot and fix broken business systems within our $100,000,000 operation when I was in manufacturing – and I was very good at my job.
So when I look at a trading system, I can tell within seconds if you’d have problems trading it.
And I can teach you how to do this too.
How important is it to you to get your trading working right, to truly make it into a reliable, long term asset, on a scale from 1 to 10?
