To state the obvious, the best way to start making money is to stop losing it.
In that regard, here are 20 ways to staunch the bleeding and get back into the winner's circle.
1. Don't trust the opinions of market gurus. Remember that it's your money at stake, not theirs. Listen to what they say, then step back and do your own homework.
2. Don't believe in a company. Trading isn't investing, so you need to focus on the price action and forget the balance sheets. Leave the American Dream to Warren Buffett.
3. Don't break your entry and exit rules. You made them for bad trades, just like the one you're stuck in right now.
4. Don't try to get even. This isn't a game of catch-up. Every action you make has to stand on its own merits. Take your losses with detachment and make your next trade with absolute discipline.
5. Don't trade over your head. If your last name isn't Kass or Cramer, stop trading like them. Just concentrate on playing the game well, and stop thinking about making money.
6. Don't seek the Holy Grail. There is no secret trading formula, other than good position choice and solid risk management. So why are you looking for it?
7. Don't forget your discipline. Anyone can learn the basics of the trading game. Sadly, most of us will fail because of a lack of self-control, not a lack of knowledge.
8. Don't chase the crowd. Tune out the groupthink and dance to the beat of your own drummer. Get out of the chat rooms and off the stock boards. This is serious business.
9. Don't trade the obvious. Everyone sees the most perfect-looking patterns, which is why they set up the most painful losses. Simply stated, if it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
10. Don't ignore the warning signs. Big losses rarely come without warning. Don't wait for a lifeboat before you abandon a sinking ship.
11. Don't count your chickens. That delicious profit isn't yours until you close out the trade. Trail stops, take blind exits and do everything possible to get that money into your pocket.
12. Don't forget the plan. Remember the reasons you took a trade in the first place, and don't get blinded by greed or fear when the position finally starts to move.
13. Don't have a paycheck mentality. You don't need to get paid every week or every month, as long as you take advantage of the opportunities as they come. Classic wisdom: traders book 80% of their profits on just 20% of the days the market is open for business.
14. Don't cut corners. There are very smart folks out there working full time to take advantage of your mistakes. Fight back by examining your results, updating your plan and finding working themes for the next session.
15. Don't ignore your intuition. Listen to that calm little voice that tells you what to do and what to avoid. That's the voice of the winner trying to get into your thick head.
16. Don't hate losing. The best traders lose money on most of their positions, so get used to the pain of losing. And there's a side benefit: the losing teaches more about winning than the winning itself.
17. Don't fall into the complexity trap. Traders who can't see the market are looking for it everywhere except in the price action. In truth, a well-trained eye will find more profits than in a stack of technical indicators.
18. Don't confuse execution with opportunity. Expensive software won't help you trade like a hedge fund. Pretty colors and flashing lights make you a more nervous trader, not a better one.
19. Don't project your personal life onto your trading. Trading gives you the perfect opportunity to find out just how messed up your life really is. Get your own house in order before you play the financial markets.
20. Don't think that trading is fun. The trading game should be boring the vast majority of the time, just like the real-life job you have right now. |
