FAQ Can You Recommend a Mentor, Coach or Trading Course?

Hi Jingles,

With the highest of respect I disagree with your post. (Apart from the Trade2Win bit) 🙂. People can be fast tracked to be better or improve at most things and has been proven throughout the centuries with education and being taught/mentored. This is definitely true in the world of trading. Driving a car for example, yes, you can teach yourself but can you teach yourself to be as good as the other drivers on the road without picking up the bad habits you don't even know exist?

You mention golf, great example. However, pro golfers do have trainers and surprising to some, they are no where near as good as the person they are training.

All the best,

Anon. Thank you for your insight. I agree with you that Trade2Win is a great resource. I have some books and manuals that really helped me take my trading to the next level. If anyone wants me to share my tools for free that were compiled by me on notes and tips from my personal mentor just let me know!
 
Hi Miss Paulina
I have been trading for 17 years and have seen Ups and downs. Self discipline is the key. The thing to remember is consider small loss consistency. If you trade , you will have losing trades. You must plan and manage this risk. OK everybody thinks win win WIN but unless you manage the loss facility this is not going to happen. Last month I spoke with an associate, he is a legal chap. His group made £14,000 in June. Then I was advised that in July they had losses of £7000 plus in a single trade. I told him that I instantly knew the reason why, basically this is what they must have been prepared to risk. He seemed a bit surprised that I explained loss is the main factor to think about, apparantly the group has online meetings to discuss whether or not to cancel trades or maybe "wait and see." They are largely Fundamentalists. Boring it may seem but I always have a Stop loss planned and in place as a soon as I enter a trade. This group approach is not always good unless you have to pool the funds. There is too much "I want to be right" in the trade thought process. The only one that ever gets it "Right" is the Market itself. The Trader is always wrong.
I would love to know what tools you have been shown. I am always up for improvement and personal progression. PM me if necessary.
