Brian,
For a much greater insight into understanding
one's self, I highly recommend learning the basic principles of Astrology.
Using this tool, you can learn your strengths, weaknesses, aptitudes,
timing for positive and not so positive days, and if so inclined you can also
use it for market timing.
Regards,
Norman

Subject: [RT] Mentor: More Mental Game
Than Otherwise
I really love all the feedback about
getting/having a mentor.But I should have been more specific from the
outset:I feel my challenges (and therefore my needs) are morealong
the lines of my mental game. I have certain"support and resistance"
levels in my mental game thathinder my growth as a trader.I would
like to find someone who is an expert at assistingothers in overcoming
mental roadblocks and what I call"psychological capital drainage"
factors.For me, I have found that on any given day, after
earlymorning self-analysis, there's a certain amount ofemotional
capital that I have to work with. I've found that the amount of
emotional capital that Ihave in my "mental account" at any given time is
of moreimportance than any amount of capital that's in mytrading
account.Bottom line is this: I have challenges with growing
thatamount of emotional capital -- by growing through mychallenges
(hopefully with the assistance of a "mentalmentor" if you will) I will be
able to grow my financialaccount as well.Soooo.....With
all that in mind -- could someone recommend aone-on-one counselor, coach,
mentor, or otherwise whoyou are confident can assist me in growing
throughmy challenges?Thanks again to all who are so kind and
generous withtheir time to reply.Warmly,Brian Keith

Norman,
Well said. I've always enjoyed reading your posts. The last time we
spoke via e-mail, you mentioned that trading with Astrology one has to
trade a particular market only if it happens to play the right tune on
that specific date. If it doesn't happen to play the right tune when the
date comes, then you stand aside. I realize it's not easy to make money in
the market, if it were then everyone would be doing it, but how do you
know a particular market has played the right tune until it's already
finished it's song?
NW: Mat, one doesn't have to hear the entire
song in order to "name that tune:" Most people can identify Beethoven's
Fifth Symphony after hearing the first four notes. Same is
true for the market.
If my analysis and forecast say to
expect A A B AA and the market plays BB B CC I know my
forecast is not in tune with the market. If the market shows signs of
matching what I expect, then there is a good chance my analysis is in tune
with the market and I should consider entering the market.
Mat
P.S. I've always felt that if one could trade the markets successfully
for a living, then they wouldn't need to sell
books/systems/courses/indicators, etc...
NW: I say, why not do both? I trade and
I enjoy meeting and helping people. Each brings me satisfaction that
only doing one wouldn't do.

DN,
Per your question below, trigger shyness can be fixed with practice.
First start with paper trading your system exactly to the rules, assuming
you have rules or a system. Hopefully, after seeing your system
successfully work on paper for at least six months, you may decide you are
ready to trade real money. Now trade the same system using such a minimal
amount of money that if all went wrong, it wouldn't phase you. You should
grade your performance as much by how well you followed your rules as you
judge the system. Making money on a trade where you didn't follow the
rules is a bad trade. Losing money while following the rules is a good
trade. If your system works and you follow it, you will make money in the
long run. If you had trouble following your rules, you either need a
different system or consider changing to a non financial venture such as
Parchesi where you won't h

P.S. I sense with all the books and software you have, you may be
suffering from
analysis paralysis. The answer of course is to simplify!! Get a simple
system written
down on paper that you can follow like a robot. You should not be
making any decisions
during market hours. All strategies should be determined in advance.
Just follow what you
have laid out in advance just as you were a robot. No thinking
allowed.

Norm,
Great advice to Brian.
Can you recommend any books/gurus/courses on EOD trading in the Stock
Market?
I have accumulated about $5,000 worth of books and about $10,000 worth
of software ((now u sing AIQ mostly) Advanced Get occasionally).
I'm a reluctant "trigger-puller." I've been a "student" for about six
years.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
