[15:00] <+jbuch1> ya I keep telling meyself the same thing werner
[15:01] <+werner> :(
[15:01] <+werner> emotion
[15:02] <+jbuch1> for some reason if I am not in a trade that is going well I want to do the opposite.
[15:03] <+jbuch1> I've recognized it and am working hard not to act upon it but I don't understand it
[15:03] <+werner> maybe wrbtrader can explane this?
[15:05] <@NihabaAshi> [15:02] <+jbuch1> for some reason if I am not in a trade that is going well I want to do the opposite.
[15:05] <@NihabaAshi> Psychology of Trading stuff...
[15:05] <@NihabaAshi> Many reasons depending upon the trader's personal trading experience.
[15:07] <@NihabaAshi> Someone I recently talked said his reason was that he feels "ashamed" he missed a good price movement and then assumes (guesses) that if he jumps on the trade in the same direction that it will suddenly reverse and cause a loss...
[15:07] <@NihabaAshi> That sets him up into guessing that it's going to "reverse soon".
[15:07] <@NihabaAshi> Therefore, he trades it but in the opposite direction.
[15:08] <@NihabaAshi> Simply, a discipline problems not a trade strategy problem.
[15:08] <@NihabaAshi> I have "discipline problems" every trading day...
[15:09] <+werner> yes indd wrbtrader
[15:09] <@NihabaAshi> I'm lucky that I have enough experience to quickly notice it and get rid of it in time for a few good trades.
[15:10] <@NihabaAshi> Currently, I have a discipline problme in the mid-day trading session...
[15:10] <@NihabaAshi> I've now gotten rid of trading in the mid-day until I get my discipline back.
[15:11] <@NihabaAshi> Not having the opportunity to trade in the mid-day forces me to be more focus on my first hour of trading because I now I won't get another chance to get it right until around 2pm est when I return to trading.
[15:11] <+szubaark_Away> Good Stuff.
[15:12] <@NihabaAshi> In the past, many years ago, when I had that mid-day discipline problem...
[15:12] <@NihabaAshi> I would simulator trade only in the mid-day.
[15:12] <@NihabaAshi> However, I quickly notice it didn't help much.
[15:13] <@NihabaAshi> Thus, I found out just leaving the computer (go do something else personal like cut the grass) during the mid-day was much better for my overall trading of the day.
[15:13] <@NihabaAshi> During the summer, I do a lot of landscape work with the spouse :)
[15:13] <@NihabaAshi> Mostly during the mid-day trading session.
[15:14] <@NihabaAshi> Play with the kids too.
[15:14] <@NihabaAshi> :)
[15:14] <@NihabaAshi> Trading days when I ignore that problem...it's a tough trading day for me.
[15:15] <+drt> l ym 20
[15:15] <+werner> thnx wrbtrader
[15:18] <+drt> stp 10
[15:18] <+jbuch1> you get to relax hang out with the family and it improves your trading thats what I call a WIN WIN:)
[15:18] <@NihabaAshi> Yep
