Rules for Traders
- Know yourself as a trader, and only take your
kind of trades. Take trades that will leave no regrets because they were
good trades, regardless of the outcome.
- Do not listen to any unsolicited advice about
the trade you are in. Follow your own plan and shield yourself from
distraction.
- Sit out markets that you are uncomfortable
trading due to volatility or looming risks. Know when it is time to
trade and time to ‘go fishing’.
- Do your homework before you trade. Be
confident in your trade until it hits your stop. Get out when your stop is
hit.
- Keep your ego out of your trading. Run it like
a business, with the profits and losses as your focus, not your ego.
- Only trade when the odds in your favor. It is
much less stressful trading this way.
- Do not blame yourself for losses if you
followed all your rules. The market giveth and the market taketh
away. Just keep taking your entries and exits.
- If you do not know what to do, DO NOTHING.
- To lower stress levels, trade less and get
away from watching every single price change. Day traders could trade only
the open and closing hour, swing trader and trend traders could just take
opening or closing signals. You could go from every tick to just checking
in every hour or so if you have options or hard stops in. Most of the days
trading is random noise, and randomness will stress. Focus on your time
frame, and only the quotes that really matter when they matter.
Many successful traders may say they never
predict, when what they may really mean is that they never EXPECT their
prediction to come true. Thus they may say things like “I only react” when more
accurately they are reacting… to a failed prediction. For, it is virtually
impossible to trade without predicting. So, I say to all you new traders out
there “Don’t be afraid to predict. Just know how likely it is that you’ll be
wrong, and know what to do when your prediction fails!”
