Actress Helen Hayes once said, “The expert in anything was once a beginner.” Seeing as how she is one of only 12 people in the world to win the coveted EGOT (an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, and a Tony), I’d say she knows what she’s talking about! As we learn to become better traders, sometimes we forget that we were once beginners, questing for knowledge and eager to absorb more and more information about trading.
However, in our quest to find the perfect system or strategy, some traders often neglect the biggest thing keeping them from success: their own mindset. While technical reading is important, it’s also important to learn how a professional trader thinks. Trading is fast paced and can be quite stressful. That split second where you are doubting yourself or your methods can cost you! In order to deal with this stress, we’ve compiled a list of resources recommended by our own NeuroStreet Mastery Program members. By learning to control the stress and keep your mind clear, you are able to make quicker and easier decisions. This is the real difference between an amateur trader and a professional one.
