Whenever the market moves into an inactive state, and we have a few rough days, I get flooded with a range of emails.  Some people start doubting their system(s), while others begin to question the specific instruments(s) they’ve been trading.  The emails that touch me most are people about to give up on trading altogether.

Most of the individuals in the latter group are new to trading, have heard great things about trading, and took the plunge.  They are blaming themselves, the trading system, time of day they can trade, etc. for the shortcomings of a bad market.  Many think their experience since starting trading is how the market always is, and their dreams of success just seem to vaporize in front of them along with their trading accounts.

The reality is that markets are cyclical, and have periods of greatness and periods of weakness.  Even with the best NinjaTrader trading system, excellent money management, and the support of a cast of trading mentors, certain markets will just simply not yield results worth trading. Working with successful long-term traders has taught me that one of the biggest skills one can have to “make it” in this game is the ability to avoid trading bad markets.  Yes, sometimes the most profitable decision is only walking away.

Well, then – if you are spending so much time NOT trading a particular instrument, how do YOU make money? Great question!  Simple, trade another market!

Yes, it’s a big world out there folks, and there are plenty of different instruments to trade, even within the commodities markets. And although we always recommend specializing in one or two instruments, in particular with a single instrument when you are learning to trade, there WILL come a time when you simply cannot make consistent, reliable profits in any single instrument.

But, that won’t last forever, it is impossible to tell exactly when your favorite instrument is going to get back on track and be tradeable.  Sure, we can distinguish bad markets from good ones, but we can NEVER predict when they will change from one phase to another (If anyone tells you they can PREDICT what the market will do, walk away and cover your ears.  They are either ignorant or lying to you.  Great traders are not fortune tellers, regardless of how their results or “calls” might appear.

So there comes a time in every trader’s journey, which it’s time to break out of what you are trading and start studying another market.  This situation comes with its set of challenges, and although the fundamental skills are universal to all markets, each instrument always has its own “nuances” that have to be studied and “owned” before one can make consistent profits from them.  

Here are some tips if you decide to check out another market:

Don’t Expect Overnight Success:  Just as you had to spend lots of time learning how to trade in the first place, don’t expect just to jump into another market and make lots of money (although you COULD make money, that might be a trap in and of itself).  Take your time, get to know the market.  It takes a bit of time before we see enough of anything new so that we start noticing rhythms, patterns, and the “flow” of how each market/instrument works.

Observe and Report:  When testing the waters in a new futures market, one should spend NO time trading, and ALL the time just watching the new environment.  You should do this like a scientist would if they discovered a new species or country.  We want to learn as much as we can about the new futures market, and by taking pressure off of having to make great trades, we allow ourselves to keep our eyes and minds focused on learning, rather than doing.

Clear Your Mind:  Don’t come into a new futures market and slap a bunch of biases that carry over from an old market.  For example, if you are coming from the Emini (ES) to say, the NASDAQ (NQ), you wouldn’t want to use the same stops just because they worked in the ES.  The NQ has an entirely different level of volatility and price action and requires a slightly different approach.  By bringing rules and biases from one market to another, it is entirely possible to sabotage the operation from the start.  Keep an entirely open mind and learn what the new futures market/instrument is telling you, rather than trying to fit another instrument’s rules into the new one only to save time.  There is no sense in forcing the proverbial “square peg into a round hole.”

Write It Down:  It will be beneficial to write down your findings, start jotting down potential rules.  Although there are some savants that can simply remember EVERYTHING they see/hear/experience, most of us can’t.  There is wisdom in keeping great notes in a trading journal on your new adventure.

Refine and Test:  There is no reason to think the first time you look at something new you will know everything about it, and it is going to make your job so much harder if you are looking for the “perfect” set of rules/approaches in coming to a new futures market/instrument.  If you start to see some patterns, although you aren’t getting the whole picture, this is a place to start.  As you continue to test your hypotheses about the new futures market, you can refine and adjust these rules/approaches until you are sure there is validity to them.  Then you check on a demo, and when you have confidence, THEN and ONLY then should you apply real money to the new futures market.

You see, giving ourselves multiple markets to trade is the same reason we use multiple approaches/systems/tools in one market.  There is no one-size-fits-all approach to any single market, and the same can be said about a traders approach to trading.  Learning a new futures market will enhance you psychologically, give you more trading opportunities and take the pressure of having to perform in a bad market when the conditions are not conducive to making consistent gains.

Now get out there and learn!  May the trades be with you!

BTW, the title of this post sounds better if you say with a Shakespearean British accent in your head. 

If you want to be a profitable trader, you must follow FOUR simple rules:

1. Trend Trade
2. Cut losses Short
3. Let Profits Run
4. Manage Risk

That’s it! If you can follow those FOUR rules, it’s almost impossible to lose money trading.

So, why do most traders lose money with their trading?

I could write a book on that question alone… but after all these years working with traders, I have some answers.

Most traders complicate trading because they are perfectionists. They want everything to be PERFECT before they pull the trigger. In reality, most profitable traders only look for Trend Trade setups.

While almost everyone pays lip service to the above FOUR rules, almost no one implements them correctly in their trading.

Ask any professional trader (by professional I mean someone who is profitable)… if it is better to trade WITH the trend or AGAINST it.

I’ll be willing to bet All of these professionals will tell you the same answer: Trade with the Trend!

So, let’s make this Cardinal Rule #1: Trade with the Trend

If you look at your Trend Trade system, and you can’t tell if you are in an uptrend or downtrend in 30 seconds or less, then you are in trouble!

Set up your charts to show you EXACTLY if the market is moving UP or DOWN!

Think about it – Trading is a river in which water flows toward the path of least resistance. When you go with the flow, you remove resistance.

Money also flows, when it moves up and down each day, the market moves it in the direction of LEAST RESISTANCE, this is how trends work.

How can you possibly expect to make profits if you are fighting upstream against the current? Well, this is exactly what most people do when they place a trade against the market!

A perfect example is a trader who uses overbought/oversold oscillators. The trader might have an oversold oscillator with divergence, and it looks PERFECT, but the trend might still be going DOWN.

So, what happens?

He buys at the market, and it starts to move his way – then it reverses into a loss. The trader says: “WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED, IT LOOKED PERFECT.”

I’ll tell you what happened… He was fighting the Trend (going against the trend or flow of the market) and was stopped out of his position.

I see this happen every day… ALL DAY!

To not Trend Trade is like driving a car and NOT looking at ANY of the stop lights. Eventually, you are going to crash the car, and for the trader, that means losing money.

STOP – LOOK – And LISTEN to what the market is telling you.

Unlike day trading the futures markets, stock trading offers a wider variety of investment opportunities including access to shares in companies like  Coca-Cola, Wal-Mart, and others. Many publicly held companies use a stock exchange such as the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) in the United States and the LSE (London Stock Exchange) in Great Britain. 

Stock trading can be an excellent choice for more seasoned day traders. However, stock trading may be more challenging for those just starting to day trade.

Over the years, the United States Security Exchange Commission has placed onerous restrictions on stock trading. Because of the SEC margin rules for US stock trading, day traders must have at least $25,000 in cash or securities available to do stock trading. This restriction means anyone who is just starting out as a day trader will need to deposit over $25,000 into their day trading account.

Futures Trading as an Alternative to Stock Trading

It is important to note that the SEC rules around trading assets for stock trading do not apply to the futures markets.  As such, trading futures gives beginner day traders access to popular futures markets tied to the US and foreign currencies such as the Swiss franc, British pound and the euro. Additionally, by trading futures contracts, day traders with smaller accounts can get access to traditional stock indexes such as the NASDAQ and DAX. In addition to the traditional indexes, Futures traders have access to a broad variety of other commodities to trade such as wheat, gold, and oil.

Futures day trading, by definition, means no futures contract position is held overnight. An “open contract” is maintained only while the market is open and active. Traders who prefer to hold their positions overnight or for an extended period are typically called position traders. 

Whether you are stock trading or day trading futures contracts, most traders elect to use efficient day trading systems to generate better profits. Many futures traders tend to use their trading software to focus on one or two markets whether that is because of a particular trading system, a preferred geographic location, or their personal trading style.

If a trader has an efficient day trading system with reliable technical analysis indicators, they do not have to be full-time day traders. There are many options to trade part-time whether it is in the morning, evening, or midday. Because of the ease of online trading, day trading, the futures market can not only be cheaper but it can also be simpler than stock trading.

What makes day traders different is that they are able to participate without bias, without question, and reap the benefits of what the market is giving on that day.

Is this an easy state to attain?  Some will say absolutely, while others just can’t seem to turn the corner and be in the ‘zone’.  The important thing to remember is it is a learned process.  There aren’t many traders I know that don’t have preconceived ideas of what is bullish and what is bearish – what constitutes a break out and what constitutes a break down.  However, many habits have benefited me as a day trader over the years.  One is identity… once I committed to the profession, I told myself I’m a professional retail trader, still retail but professional nonetheless. Then came the process of learning how information is transmitted, of knowing who is doing what in the market or the necessity of not knowing or caring who is doing it.  These habits have freed me beyond what I can write on this post.  Day trading is not always easy, but it allows traders to enter the market each day fresh and without an opinion as to the markets bullishness or bearishness.

This allows a day trader the ability to access and accept the current market mood.  Market awareness is a critical to choosing which trading strategy to employ and is a subject I have spent some time writing about.  Having an awareness of your personal emotional and physical state of being is also critical in realizing what may hinder your ability to step in and trade.

I hear it all the time: “I’m getting killed trading oil”, “I’m not consistent with the ES”, “I’ve been trading Binary Options and I keep losing money”; the list is endless.  Day after day I have conversations with traders and hear about their day trading challenges.  The tough part about many of these conversations is the fact that MANY continue to try to trade a market that they may not be right for them.  You may be saying -“Who are you to tell me what I can and cannot do?”  I’ll tell you who I am: I’m a guy who did the same stubborn stuff over and over again until I finally learned this day trading secret. 

So, what is the secret?  Is it that you must use an Indicator Warehouse trading system? – Sort of.  Is it money management? – Sort of.  Is it the thorough trading education you can get from anyone on the Indicator Warehouse Team?  – Still, sort of.  Good trading software, money management, and education are all part of a total day trading solution. But, the biggest piece of the puzzle is YOU!  You need to learn, You need to gain experience, and most of all, and You need to use your common sense.  Let’s face it, when a particular trading instrument is causing above average trading challenges, maybe it’s time to change things up a little.

Way back when I first got started in trading, I was a devoted E-mini S&P 500 (ES) trader and I figured I would trade the ES until I die.  I did fairly well with the ES and for a long time. I felt I could do no wrong. Then the ES changed drastically.  What was once a fast paced market became one that moved at a snail’s pace, and you guessed it, I started failing.  But, I could not quit the ES. After all, I had invested so much time into “mastering” it.  

Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. -Albert Einstein 

Not only was I beating myself up, my trading account was also getting badly bruised. Was it my software or my trading method?  No, not really.  

After some serious soul-searching, I came to realize that my trading, at its core, was based on the price patterns and the overall speed of the market. This was fine when the ES behaved within the norm I had gotten used to. But, for whatever reason, the “character” of the ES had changed, and with it, it’s price patterns and speed.

So what did I do?  Instead of sticking with something out of ego and pride, I switched to an instrument better suited not only my day trading style, but also to my money management and risk tolerances.  In other words, if the CL is kicking your tail, why not try trading the NQ?  If options are murdering your account, why not try trading Futures?

In trading, you must be honest with yourself.  If you don’t want to sit in front of your screens for hours, that’s OK!  If your account size is too small to trade the instrument you first chose, that’s OK. Choose another. We all have to start somewhere.  My point is this: I’m not saying that hard trading challenges means giving up your trading profession. But, if the Russell 2000, CL, ES, or any other instrument is beating you up, maybe it’s time to try another instrument.  It worked for me.

Today’s topic is one of the most important issues we deal with as traders:  The Stop Loss.  A stop loss is an order we place in the market after we decide where our entry should be.  It essentially closes our order for a loss at a pre-determined point.  Why would we ever want to close out for a loss?

What makes a stop loss so important?

It Stops The Loss:  I know that might seem obvious, but consider the alternative. Without having a stop, the market might just run an extreme number of ticks against you (which can happen QUICKLY sometimes) and depending on order size, deplete the account significantly OR blow it all together.  Say the power goes out OR your internet connection while you have a trade open.  What if you can’t get connected for hours?  What happens to your trade?  Knowing exactly the worst you can do leads to both better planning and more consistent results.  It protects us from many “what ifs” in trading that we cannot predict.  It’s like our trade insurance policy to make sure we can only lose a certain amount every time we place a trade, regardless of our connection or the market (with a few extreme exceptions).

Stop Loss Affects Win %:  In my days of systems’ testing, the one thing I found consistently, is that big stops tend to raise win %, and smaller stops tend to lower it.  So although it might seem attractive to always use a five tick stop to keep reward/risk ratio in your favor, the volatility found in day trading along with regular movement means that a small stop is likely to be “taken out” by the market even when it eventually goes in your favor.  In fact, I have seen systems that depend on huge stops to keep their win rate above 90% (given that more time gives the market a chance to go in your favor), BUT 1 loss wipes out 15 wins.  So depending on a big stop can cost a system dearly, even though it may only happen every once in awhile. So this is an area where balance must be achieved.  As traders, we must be cognizant of the dynamics between giving ourselves enough room to let our trade win despite drawdown, but not sacrifice too much to make our risk/reward suffer.  

It’s a Psychological Thing:  As traders, we are constantly battling our emotions and dealing with the two-headed monster of fear and greed.  Using a stop loss mechanizes one aspect of risk management that is key.  Of course, NONE of us want to lose ANY trade.  But that just isn’t reality, and I don’t care what level of skill we are talking about.  I have yet to meet ANY traders who win all the time, and I have met some VERY successful people in this business.  Our stop loss takes the desire to stay in a bit longer even though we have gotten the market “wrong” (even though it may be temporary) from our entry point and trade analysis.  The important thing to remember here is:  1)  Set a good stop and 2) DON’T MAKE IT BIGGER.  Do the analysis BEFORE the trade, and STICK to your plan!  The difference much of the time in profitable traders and otherwise USING THE SAME SYSTEM is how much they can stick to their plan.  Your stop is there for a reason.  Deal with the loss and move on.  By not making the loss bigger than your plan by moving the stop, you will give yourself a better chance of making back the money on subsequent trades.

So now that we see how important stops losses are in our trading, it makes sense that we should take care in HOW we apply them right?  At least the “when” part is easy: USE THEM FOR EVERY TRADE, ALL THE TIME!  Risk management is maybe the most important cornerstone to every successful trader.  By understanding this dynamic, we both relieve pressure from having to be perfect with every entry AND protect our account from the devastation in a market that literally can do anything, at any time.  We are not in the market “prediction” business; we are actually in the “risk and trade management” business.  Even someone with poor analytical skills and almost random entries but strong risk management can still do MUCH better than someone with great entries but no risk management. 

Remember, the responsible trader is usually the rich one and risk management is an essential stepping stone of responsible trading.

You wouldn’t embark on our day trading journey if we thought you were going to lose money.  I think only the most masochistic of gamblers gets into day trading specifically to blow up their trading account.  After only a bit of experience, virtually any trader realizes losing money can happen even when that is the last thing on their mind.

So today, I want to focus on the day trading version of a classic baseball pitching by saying – “Don’t give up the big inning.”  In baseball, the pitcher has a unique position in that every ball on the defensive side goes through his hands on the way to whatever the result may be.  He has “the game in his hands” and his supporting cast of defensive players can only watch and react to what happens after the ball leaves his hands.  I propose that YOU are just as the pitcher in the ballgame of day trading.  In baseball, a pitcher can lose composure or get tired. Pitches that were hard to hit before now sail from the mound to the other guy holding the bat.  It is assumed that on any given day, a starting pitcher is allowed to give up SOME runs, with the based on the assumption that his team’s offense will, in turn, be able to score against the rival team.  The game depends on the pitcher not giving up too many runs, especially in one inning. He must make sure to give his offense a good shot at not only equalizing but putting more runs on the board leading winning outcome.

In day trading, this concept is similar. You as a trader WILL lose some trades, but the goal is to not give up so much that your wins can later propel your trading account further than the losses then pulled it down onward to a profitable outcome.  But, so often in day trading, as in baseball, we give up “the big inning”.  In baseball, a pitcher that gives up five runs in an inning, not only creates a significant deficit in actual runs but creates a psychological gap for his teammates.  Not only do they have to get on base, but they have to get A LOT of guys on base, just to “break even”.  The same thing happens in day trading.  One or two losing trades creates a deficit, but nothing a good win or two can’t fix.  But when we start losing a lot of consecutive orders or lose big amounts due to over-risking trades, we create not only a significant financial deficit that’s hard to overcome but also a psychological wall that seems overwhelming. You start trying to make back too much on each trade, just like batters start working to hit home runs at every bat. Instead of piecing base hits together to score, they forget the plan and make stupid mistakes.  These types of actions create a dangerous situation in baseball and day trading.  In both cases, it prohibits a steady approach to gains.

So, how do you know when to simply “pull the plug” and stop day trading? There are experiences I have had in my years as a trader, that now become red flags when I see them:

• Double-Down:  Oh so you lost a couple of trades.  Maybe it’s a 10 points total.  Now you think, I can make that back with a 5 point gain if I just double my trade size.  This approach is dangerous and a slippery slope. It just takes one loss with the double-sized order to make that relatively small divot in your trading account into a much bigger hole.  Then, you find yourself thinking “I NEED to double this next one just to make the money I just blew back.”  This thinking if not put in check, will eventually and most certainly blow up your trading account.  Whenever you start convincing yourself into ignoring your normal risk, you should realize that you are now gambling with the very real possibility of blowing your entire trading account.

• Heart In Throat Day Trading:  When you feel the adrenaline, it’s probably time to stop.  Yeah, that loss on the books is painful, but how sharp are you thinking at the moment you are pacing around, praying that THIS trade just wins, pulling your hair, and feeling that dry mouth?  Day trading takes composed confidence to make the best decisions, and if you find yourself emotionally wrecked or “amped up,” you should just close your orders and take the rest of the week off. Trust me, the loss you just took may look bad, but it’s not as bad as blowing the whole trading account emotionally day trading to get that loss back. If you feel sick, or scared, you should not be day trading. Take some time, cope with the booked losses, and come back when you are ready to do analysis and real day trading.  It’s stupid to say there is no emotion in day trading, or that there shouldn’t be.  You’re human, I’m human, we have emotions.  You just can’t let them get the best of us.  Don’t trade beyond your “comfort zone”.

• Tunnel Vision:  This is similar to the last one, except in this case you simply can’t take your eyes off the price.  Need to go to the bathroom? Fire up the tablet so you can take it with you and watch every tick of the market.  When you find yourself so glued to the trade that you can’t even look up, you are probably in the danger zone. You aren’t doing your analysis anymore which means you can’t make a decision.  You hang on every tick, every move of the market and become like a deer in the headlights.  If you find this happening, CLOSE the trade and take a break!

• No Rest for the Wicked:  If you find yourself staying up WAY later than normal just so you can watch your trade, you are probably in the danger zone.  Sure, it’s fun to look at a winner run.  But often, you are staying up to watch a trade that’s losing agonizingly tick lower and lower.  If you are doing everything correctly, you should know exactly what you are risking before the trade even starts.  Consider that money GONE.  If you win, then you have done very well!  If you lose, well, you’ve already accepted that.  Either way, you shouldn’t be wrecking your sleep schedule just to watch a trade.  If you are, you are probably risking way too much, or wrecking your rules.

• Off The Rails:  You have completely thrown out the rules.  You are taking trades on every turn of the market.  Adding to a small winner, then seeing it start to lose, so you add more.  The more you trade, the deeper it gets.  Soon, every tick begins to affect floating equity severely, and you feel like you HAVE to do something!  When our rules start to slip, our ability to make money does as well.  The further you go from your plan, the more likely catastrophe awaits you.

All this can be avoided very easily!  To ensure none of the above situations ever describe your day trading:

1. Create a Trade Plan
2. Stick To It
3. Create day trading Limits
4. Stick to them!
5. Know yourself
6. Learn Your System
7. Stick to it!

Beautiful day trading begins with a great trader.  By focusing on yourself and how you approach the market, you will find that the desired gains come much faster than depending on some external force like the system, market, mentor, etc.  You are in charge!  Make sure you trade when you are up for it, and you get out of day trading for the day/week/month when you aren’t.  Keeping yourself on the right side of your emotions will keep you on the right side of the trade.  Remember, the point of all this is to prevent giving up “the big inning.”

Recently, I was asked if we are creating Automated Trading software for the Diversified Trading System (DTS). The answer is Yes. But it’s still far out. Why?  Because while the math of this Automated Trader is based on our Trading Systems; the program is being designed for an automated trading environment.  

IMHO, a common misunderstanding is that one can automate how humans trade and that humans can trade the way machines do.  Each “device” has its strengths and weaknesses. I believe humans can be better traders than machines because they can process more nuances than a computer. “Subtle” is tough to code. But, humans suffer from inconsistent execution and follow through. This situation is not the case with an automated system. A computer can be depended on to take the same trade under the same conditions every single time.

The challenge with Automated trading is “Chop”. Choppy tight range price action is tough enough on us humans. But, for computers, it’s deadly!  Chop is where I see most automated trading systems breaking down. As with ANY discretionary day trading system, even great ones like the Diversified Trading System (DTS), if you program a machine to take every single signal, your account will slowly dwindle away.

Discretionary trading is truly a craft – part art and part science.  It’s the “art” part that messes up auto traders.  Top Automated trading programmers say the best auto trading systems do not trade often.  But when they take a trade it has a high probability of success and is backed by proper money management rules to maximize the win.

Most discretionary traders don’t have the patience or desire to sit and wait for one or two great trades a day, and I don’t blame them.  It’s not natural to sit all day and stare at screens waiting for the exact moment to get into the market. That is something only a machine can do.  

I do not think one form of trading, whether it’s wet-ware or hard-ware based, is better than the other.  Each has its place in a fully diversified approach to trading.

Technical Analysis vs. Fundamentals

The best online trading software in the world cannot prevent you from becoming a victim of bad trading information. Some of the least useful information you’ll get comes from people who claim to be experts and who base all of their arguments on their expertise. Look for information that relies on evidence. For example, if somebody is saying that a given is likely to shoot up in price in a short amount of time, take a look at why they think that aside from the fact that they claim to be a futures trading expert. Do they have information about the stock market fundamentals in the near future that may have led them to believe as much? Do they have numbers to back up what they’re saying? If their entire case is built on their expertise, be very wary.

Beware the Political Blogger Disguised as a Futures Trading Expert

Right or left, political advocacy is not full of good trading advice. If you get the feeling that the trading information you’re getting off of a blog or a media website is more political than financial and that the writer is attempting to frame their arguments regarding trading advice, be suspicious.

The markets are information driven entities. Smart traders buy and sell positions in commodities and stocks based on empirical information, not based on their political affiliations. Sometimes, a political situation will impact the value of a given commodity. This means that trading information presented in the framework of a particular ideology is usually not particularly useful. For instance, unrest in a country that produces a lot of coffee may affect the price of coffee, but that doesn’t say anything about the political motivations of any of the forces causing that unrest. No matter what your political beliefs, put them aside when you’re making empirical decisions about the potential value of a company or a futures trade.

A Good Futures Trading Source is a Keeper

If you find someone who gives you good, solid trading information on stocks or futures trading, be sure to bookmark them. Good sources of information are hard to find and, once you find one, you want to make certain that you’re using it as much as possible.

I recently received another great “Thank you” from a client of Indicator Warehouse.  Nothing speaks louder than a customer saying “Job well done.” When I was adding the new comment to our Testimonials page, I realized there is something even Better than a New satisfied customer… and that is an OLD satisfied Customer.

As I was reviewing our testimonials page, I have to say I was caught off-guard by how many people have written in with such positive “Updates” about their trading journey.

Look… I am proud of the innovative trading tools and services we’ve brought to the marketplace.  But, the real test of value is longevity.  Knowing that people are successfully using our trading solutions on a long-term basis is the ultimate business trophy.

The feedback and data from our long-term customers motivated me to search for common threads of wisdom.  What I discovered is that all successful tend to evolve by going through similar developmental cycles of trading psychology.

Typically, most traders start out jumping from system to system in search of the holy grail of trading. However, as time goes on and they start to find methods that work for their unique personalities they often come up against a new challenge. That challenge is their own ability to consistently follow their trading plan. Although this may sound like a simple thing to do, those of us who have traded for a while know it is often the greatest obstacle to any trader’s success.

However, there are tried and true tools and techniques that are used by successful traders to instantly hack your trader brain for success. Unfortunately, these tools and techniques are usually reserved for $2,000 per hour trading psychology coaching sessions and are rarely exposed to the general public.

Not anymore!  Rich Friesen, founder of MindMuscles for Traders and long time trading psychology consultant for Indicator Warehouse is available to discuss the exact methods he has used for years in his trading psychology practice to help you evolve into a consistently profitable and professional day trader. 

You can contact Richard from HERE.

I look forward to posting your experience into our library of Indicator Warehouse success stories.
