Forex Trading Psychology -vs- Forex Trading Method

Did you ever see the movie The Italian Job, and if so do you remember when John Bridger asked: “You see those pillars over there, that’s where they used to string up thieves who felt fine.” Make the transition from paper trading to real money trading and you will feel FINE too – Freaked-out Insecure Neurotic and Emotional. And what a great analogy ‘string up’ is, because after all those months of paper trading winners are replaced with real money losses, that is exactly what you will feel like doing to yourself. The Trading Psychology Viewpoint No discussion about trading, or the consideration to begin trading, can be done without a harsh realization - the vast majority of all traders lose. It is said that the reason that most traders lose is because they are not psychologically prepared to trade, that is they are not prepared to accept financial risk for something of which they have no control over the outcome. Forex Trading is much more of a psychological problem then a methodologica...

Extreme TMA System

The market, like a pendulum, is a never ending sequence of extremes. It forever tries to reach the mean but never succeeds, constantly overshooting it´s mark, reversing and trying it again but always failing to reach balance. This system attempts to capture those extremes. It is a compendium of my understanding of the market, brought to it´s simplest expression. The principles are not complicated. The first indicator, the TMA shows us the average of the path that the price action in the market is following.

Our second indicator, the TMA Slope indicator will show us the relative change in the slope of TMA as compared to previous candles. It determines in which direction a trade must be placed and also shows divergences to price. For examp...

What's more important: Trading Method or Trading Psychology?

Ancient argument: What's determines success in trading: A successful methodology  Psychology and discipline?  Answer: BOTH! But this is not a "chicken or egg" dilemma. Clearly in this case method comes before mind. I don't care how much self-discipline you have. If you don't have a viable trading methodology, then you will lose money. So method is more important. Well, maybe "more important" isn't the right phrase to use. But it definitely comes first. The reason I say it may not be more important is because there are many valid trading methodologies available. Yet ironically, traders keep jumping from one method to another ... one indicator after another  one book after another  one mentor after another  one seminar after another  This is the infamous "search for the Holy Grail." Sorry ... doesn't exist. Like most things in life, people keep looking for the answer outside of themselves, w...
