Dear forum members,
Im facing a situation in my trading and Im looking for a solution. Im sure the experienced traders will be able to understand the problem well. Ill be grateful if some of you can give me some ideas on how to work out on this one.
Mind circus during live trading
I have worked with two systems for three months paper trading. Ive my set of rules and then few fine stuffs that act as clues when to stay out. In short, Ive knowledge plus a little experience of the systems. What happens is when I sit for live trading my mind plays a circus and it makes me doubt the setup or outright reject the setup. I call this as a circus because it is well orchestrated and it happens every day.
But then there also comes the add moment when Im able to get out of the trap and get in the zone where Im clearly seeing what is happening in the market. I want to be in a situation where by I can access that zone when I want and not at the mercy of my mind. I do have the feeling of how it is when Im in the zone but it happens on very few occasions.
In past one year, Ive also worked on my overall thinking process to clear out a lot of biases and emotional clog that I had held for a longtime in my life. After having released a lot of negativity out of mind Ive been able to look at the price movement and it has helped me find more opportunities and get the clues and also at times the intuitive feeling about the market. But it is taking long time to translate the same thing in the real time environment.
Im keen to work on myself so as to make trading effortless. I can understand the resistance I have inside and sometimes I can see myself clearly as two people inside me, One who knows about my system and method of trading and other who is creating doubt, anxiety and fear. Ive developed this personal frustration as I can see that what I set out to do is out there but Im not doing what Im supposed to do.
I hope I have been able to convey m problem. Ill be thankful to anyone who can suggest me how to go about this inner change that I need to do.
