If we took a snapshot of you while you were trading what would it look like?
Are you sitting down?
Looking downward?
Is your head down?
Are your shoulders rounded?
That is the body posture of a depressed or anxious person! Not the posture of a profitable trader! Let’s change that!
Take on a powerful posture!
Stand up and move around. Maybe even turn on some music and dance.
Press your shoulders back and stick your chest out.
Smile (even if you don’t feel like it)
Just those few small changes can improve your trading!
Important choices to make
What are you going to focus on?
What is the meaning of what you are focusing on?
For example, let’s say I choose to focus on trade results and I lose a trade, and then I choose to make that loss mean that I am a failure. The focus I chose and the meaning I created is going to lead to thoughts that result certain negative emotions.
Since emotions dictate your actions and your actions ultimately lead you to your results, those negative emotions are not going to serve you well.
Instead, what if I choose to focus on my trading process and improving it. And the meaning I created was that the loss meant that losses are simply a normal part of trading and that all successful traders lose? This would create very different emotions which are more likely to serve me well in the future.
