Have you improved your trading psychology?

Many people loves putting their time to improve on system/strategy, looking for holy grail, but they almost forgot psychology are the most important factor in trading. Look for Dr. Andrew Menaker, I can assure he can improve your psychology on trading if listened and understand what he said.
 
I cannot stress enough on how important psychology is in trading. A whole new world.

Psycholgy must be improved from time to time but the problem our mental always face up and down when facing market condition , cause condition some times not as our expected . so its crucial for any traders
 
For me Psychology is only risk of loss of real money.

One can be down 500 pips and still lose only $5, and one can be down 5 pips and lose $500 dollars.

For most retail traders, who are trying to make a living out of the forex markets, with $5k deposit, I am not sure if any kind of psychological course would work. Most retail is trying to double their money within a month. With such a wide spread attitude, the term "Psychology" is overrated.

Psychology of the retail game is a lot different from the Psychology of an institutional portfolio.
 
Trading psychology is very important in the life of a trader. In fact it is the real deal that a trader needs to cope with. If as a trader you fail to control your psychology, then it is not possible for you to become a successful trader.

Ever since I bought that DIY lobotomy kit, I've had no trouble with emotions getting in the way of trading. :p
 
When I open trades, I like to set and forget about them, only checking on them once in a while to find out if I can trail my SL according to my trading plan. The way I remove emotions is simply by distracting myself with other activities and I found that to be effective. My advice is when you open a trade, and after setting your stops, go and do other things; go work out, play video games, go cook something good, do anything else you like that would keep you away from the charts. This way I am able to remove my emotions, "sit on my hands" and improve my discipline and also prevent myself from doing a mistake; I let my trades work out themselves and don't try to micro manage them.
