Trading Psychology – What Do YOU Want Right Now?

What do YOU want right now?

I always find it interesting how people want different things depending on where they are with their trading and what’s been happening lately

Everyone wants to make money.

That’s a given, but often there is also something else that rates just as high and sometimes higher

Some want to be free of the stress

Some are tired of fighting fear all the time

Some want security

Others want a system that they can rely on, because they’ve lost faith in what they’ve got

Others still want someone they can turn to when they have questions or need help with a particular challenge, someone they can trust to be of genuine help and not screw them over

It comes as no surprise when I ask a new client,

“What is your top priority right now? What is the main thing you want to come out of this with?”

…and their answer is, “I just want to have some confidence in what I’m doing and in myself.”

When I ask them to rate where they are right now, they usually say they’re at a “1” or a “2” because they’ve been just so beaten down

Pretty much anyone that’s been trading for any length of time knows what it’s like to have your confidence and self-esteem just crushed to near nothing

So what do YOU want right now?   What is your ‘main thing’ you want to achieve with your trading, besides making money

If you would, leave a comment below with what YOU want right now

Cheers

    I just want to stop losing money. I’m so tired of trying this and that and none of it seems to make me money, only lose.

    Yeah, for me it’s confidence. I feel like I just can’t win no matter what I do.

    I want to feel some security in what I’m doing. Even when I win a few trades, it’s like I’m just waiting for the losing streak to come where I hand it all back.
