Becoming a Disciplined Trader by Ari Kiev

Becoming a Disciplined Trader by Ari Kiev

Every trader has, at some point, let emotions guide their trading – usually resulting in costly results. The most successful traders will even tell you that the discipline they were forced to embrace as a result, was the key to their future trading success. Now, Trading to Win author Dr. Ari Kiev brings his personal coaching workshop into your own home, so you can develop the skills it takes to be a cool, collected, and consistently successful trader.

This interactive course will help you remove the emotional component involved in making buy/sell decisions. He’ll coach you on the best ways to deal with the stress, anxiety, and adrenaline rush that’s a by-product of daily market activity. And you’ll learn the same methods he’s trained thousands of professional traders to employ as they triumph over the psychological problems facing every active trader.

Reduce your emotional discomfort and increase your trading profits as you learn to:

· Trade less emotionally, and more strategically.

· Identify the major stress triggers in trading.

· Recognize – and overcome – the psychological habits that keep you from achieving maximum performance.

· Be honest with yourself – rather than masking your trading anxieties.

· Reduce the influence of greed by setting targets – and learning to stick to them.

You’ll find winning methods for resolving problems when working with a trading partner, and learn to challenge yourself without also elevating your level of stress. Leading hedge funds turn to Kiev when they need to master emotions on the path to consistent trading success – and so should you.

Understanding the Decision Making Process in Any Market

Understanding the Decision Making Process in Any MarketIn this presentation, Peter will describe the important distinction between internal and external market information and how successful floor traders rely primarily on data the market generates internally about itself. Floor traders can readily determine whether or not the markets supports, or “uplifts”, their decisions by evaluating the emotions, sounds, and energy levels generated in the pits. Physical proximity to the pits provides them with a distinct advantage over individual traders, for whom the only internal information available is volume.

Peter will describe the strides that the Chicago Board of Trade and NYMEX are making to provide users with more and better internal data. However, more data does not necessarily improve the decision-making process, causing the downfall of even highly trained and disciplined traders. Rather than overwhelming individual traders with too much information, the new platforms offered by the CBOT and NYMEX combine price, volume, and direction into a single market operating unit, and provide decision filters which, in essence, allow for forward testing trading strategies. Peter will describe the mechanics behind this process and provide examples from a variety of markets.

Ruth shows you how to put yourself into self-hypnosis to achieve your goals. She teaches you a proven process for scripting your actions for success.

The Dynamics of a Trader's Mindset In this presentation, Mark Douglas explains the dynamics of the trader’s “mindset” at a very fundamental level. You will gain a comprehensive understanding of how you must first learn to think like a trader before you can fully utilize your technical or analytical abilities.

You must not only understand certain basic trading principles, but also keep that understanding at a functional level in your mental environment. In order to trade successfully, these principles of trading must become part of the core of your personal psychological makeup.

The very nature of trading confronts us with contradictions and paradoxes which make it difficult to grasp the necessary mindset for consistent success. Many traders assume, “If I can find the right trading system or learn enough about the markets’ behavior, the mental part of trading (lack of confidence, discipline or focus) takes care of itself.” This may appear logical but, in fact, could not be further from the truth.

Better analysis can’t compensate for the kind of errors, losses, missed opportunities or money left on the table which result from too little confidence, discipline or focus, because the markets present us with too many variables. More often than not, more analysis only makes these problems worse.

The most successful traders have attained a “trader’s mindset” — a unique set of attitudes which allows them to transcend the typical errors and fears that plague everyone else. In this workshop, Mark elaborates on these attitudes. He draws upon his vast experience to explore with you the qualities and characteristics of a unique market mindset — an absolute prerequisite to producing consistent results as a trader.
