Dear Friend,

 

Emotions can be the
most challenging and most costly factor in your
trading, and not knowing how to effectively manage
emotions is the one reason that so many traders leave
large amounts of money on the table every month. But,
it’s easier said than done when you don’t know what to
do, isn’t it?

As a result, traders often focus
solely on the technical aspects of their trading,
hoping that by working in these areas they can make a
big difference in their results. It is important to
have these areas in order, but you can have
an even more substantial impact on your bottom line
by eliminating certain inefficiencies in your trading
(like mistakes due to emotional influence). Let’s look
at a hypothetical example to illustrate.

Let’s say
you’re doing pretty well…

In our hypothetial example You have a system that will consistly pick winners 70% Your risk / reward rules dictate that you only place trades that have a ratio of 3-to-1 profit to risk. Your average risk going in is $150 You place 10 trades per month

Let’s presume that you stick to your system pretty well, but not exactly (so you’re not truly getting all there is to be had on each trade – within your system rules) and you only have a major slip up once in a while.

Potential with your Current System Actual Profit/Loss Realized $ (150.00) $ (150.00) $ 450.00 $ 400.00 Got nervous & out early $ 450.00 $ 425.00 Hesitated getting in $ (150.00) $ (150.00) $ 450.00 $ 440.00 $ 450.00 $ 375.00 Got nervous & out early $ 450.00 $ 430.00 Hesitated getting in $ (150.00) $ (150.00) $ 450.00 $ 450.00 $ 450.00 $ (150.00) Stayed in way too long Net for 10 trades $2,700.00 $ 1,920.00 —-> 71.1% Efficient But how much money was left on the table? So in dollars and percentages, what would have been the improvement in your results if you had truly maximized your system and avoided the mistakes from emotional influence over the course of a year? Monthly Annual Increased % Increase Increase Net Result 41% $780.00 $9,360.00

As you can see, by fully maximizing what
you’ve already got in place, you can realize substantial
rewards.

Of course, the above is just a
hypothetical example, but you can see what your own
trading is missing and how you can make a huge
difference in your bottom line just by avoiding the
missed opportunities due to emotional influences.

The key is to effectively
manage your emotions so that you get the most out of
your trading! But you already knew that,
didn’t you, and it’s not as easy as you’d like. Now
there is help…

Rather than have me
answer that, here are some comments from others:

“Brian, thank you for putting together this great
resource! The TGEM is helping me to identify my
personal issues that I am having with my trading and
is teaching me how to address these issues. The TGEM
is taking away much of the frustration I’ve had in
trading and is making it fun again! I especially
like the Good Trading Checklist and the Digging-Deep
Questionnaire!   I have these printed out
and taped near my computer, and I am going through
the checklist and questions before and after I make
a trade. These lists are definitely helping me to
focus and feel better about a trade rather than
worried about it!  Thanks again for this and
your efforts for helping me out!”

How much did it cost
you?  How long did it take you to recover and
recoup? How does it
affect your confidence when you get caught up in
your emotions and do things that you know you
shouldn’t do… but do them anyway?

Now you can easily stop
shooting yourself in the foot and taking steps
backwards. You’ve just discovered the way to take
the emotional mistakes out of your trading and make
a huge change in your trading experience.

As I’m sure you’ve
experienced, and with rare exception, the
most costly trades are due to emotions influencing
your decisions.  Even worse is the
fact that the more emotional mistakes you’re making,
the more likely you are to repeat them. So is the key to try to trade without
emotion?

 

The
key is not to take the emotions out of your trading,
just the emotional mistakes.  You are a
human being and your feelings are part of who you are.
It is all in how you deal with your emotions – do you
fight them,  try to suppress or ignore them, or
do you pay attention to them, listen to them and have
them work for you? 

Are you
tired of…

• Beating yourself up while you watch the market run,
  because you got out too early?
• Freezing when you should pull the trigger, then
  getting in when most of the profits are already
  gone?
• Wondering if
  anyone is actually making money trading?
• Kicking yourself
  for making “stupid” mistakes because of fear or
  greed?
• Feeling the
  despair after a string of losses, wondering if you
  should just give up?
• Knowing what you
  should do, but failing to stick to your discipline,
  then regretting it later and wondering what’s wrong?

Do you want to trade better
by keeping your emotions on an even keel, and have a
very simple way to comfortably:

• Understand how your emotions are influencing your
  thoughts, decisions and actions – PLUS what you can
  DO to affect change
• Get yourself under control in your trading
• Have your emotions HELP you with your trading
  rather than cause you to lose out

This guide empowers
you on a conscious level to identify, fully
understand, and address the subconscious factors that
create the emotional conflict in your trading and
prevent you from trading at your best.

“I’ve found The Trader’s Guide to Emotional Management extremely practical and down-to-earth. My feeling is that it’s like a one to one therapy when I go through and think about the diagnostic questions in relation to the various trading problems. It’s a self-discovery process and it works like it’s been tailor-made for any individual reader regardless of their trading background. Thanks again for your contributions to traders’ world!” – Jesse Chan, Individual trader Kowloon City, Hong Kong

How will your equity graph and month-end
account balance look when you consistently trade
calmly, confidently and in a relaxed and focused
manner?

       

 

 

 

This guide takes you
right to the root of the problem and shows you specifically why
you do what
you do when things go wrong and result in lost money.
It then gives you appropriate actions to take to
prevent or avoid the regrettable mistakes in your
trading.

 

The Trader’s Guide empowers you to:

• Swing the balance of the equation in your favor –
  and end the “coulda, shoulda woulda’s”
• Give yourself that edge that you’ve been looking
  for – and see it on your bottom line
• End the regret from ’emotional’ mistakes, and feel
  much better about yourself and your trading
• Discover how to listen to your emotions, not just
  get pounded by them – feel some freedom
• Take your current system to the next level – keep
  the one you’ve got – and profit more
• Have control over yourself when you need it – and
  feel your confidence soar
• Stop “un-necessarily” giving money to the markets –
  no more having to make it back
• Enjoy better discipline – be more comfortable
  sticking with your system, by having a knowing of why you’ve been
  deviating
• Feel more confident about pulling the trigger when
  you see a good set up – get those winners
• Be more comfortable with letting your winners run –
  and be partying instead of pouting
• Most of all, you’ll be able to settle down and
  enjoy the good trading that you know you’re capable
  of.

Now, for those of you who
that already have The Subtle Trap of Trading,
you may be wondering:  “Is this the same
thing?”  No it is not.  As you know, the
Subtle Trap begins by explaining the events and
circumstances that occurred early in your trading
career that created many of the challenges you’re
experiencing now, then walks you through the steps to
overcome your early beginnings.  It then covers
numerous aspects of trading including emotions, while
The Trader’s Guide expands greatly on your emotional
decision-making process and goes much more in-depth
into the individual mistakes that traders make, plus
covers more of them.  They are a very good
compliment to each other and both would be excellent
additions to your trading library!

 

 

 

Special Bonus #1 – The Trade Planner (this one is
powerful!)



Do you want an easy to use, clear
and straightforward tool for planning your trades, so
that you can relax,
knowing what to do regardless of the market moves?

Every broker and veteran on the planet will tell you
that one of the most common and most costly mistakes
losing traders make is not properly planning their
trades.

I remember when I first started trading, planning the
trades was very uncomfortable because I didn’t really
know how to do it well.  No one had shown me the
right way to plan out a trade so that I knew going in
what to do in each of the possible scenarios of market
moves.

By having a properly prepared plan for each trade, you’ll know in advance
when to exit, where to place your stops, how to maximize your profits and
minimize your losses!  The peace of mind
is wonderful!!
