Dimpil,
I would like to know why anyone on this list
is wasting our time talking about Madonna? If she works real hard, the best
anyone can hope, if so inclined to bother, is that she will return to a
normal life, and then who cares? I fail to see the relevancy of Madonna to
gaining success as a trader? Anyone checked out the George Soros Holiday
CD? <G>
Regards,
Norman

That is your opinion,
however I wasn't going for her personality. She has changed from when
she first came on the scene to now. Growth, maturity etc. Anyway,
I do believe people can change, it takes works, self awareness and
determination but it is doable. From your view (and you are entitled to
it) a person has no opportunity for self actualization, self awareness and to
change whatever negative or positive behavior. I think
differently.

Again that is Madonna was and
is a user ... she is a person who identifies what she believes her public
wants and then she gives it to them in large doses. She'll be whatever
you want her to be as long as you pay for it. In your case, you have
to be you and actually, Madonna has to be herself as well ... she just
varies the facade. But back to you, you can't be what you are
not. You can't become who you are not. Not unless such changes
happen over long periods of time, naturally. You have to take who you
are and use that person's strengths and weaknesses to become a successful
trader. Just do what she does. Give em what they want while
continuing to be who you really are ...BobAt 08:15

view things differently if they are willing to make the changes within
themselves. That is a part of our humanness. For example,
Madonna, she has changed a lot since she first came to fame. I only
use her because she lives in the spot light and you can see her growth
from her first interview/music to current day interviews/music. Part
of life is about experiences and how those experiences impact, subtle or
explosive.

BobOf course, we are all individuals so I can't speak for you but
you are looking to be trained/taught something that resides inside of
you. It is a product of your upbringing. Your values.
Your life's experiences. For someone else with different ideas
brought on by their own experiences would be most difficult to pass on
to you, with yours. Even the trading itself is, in part, a product
of your personality and what works for me, may well not work for you
since our personalities and life's experiences differ. Only you
can add to your emotional account since only you have the assets and
baggage which must be a part of any change in that area. In my
opinion, you would be wasting your time and money to attempt to bring in
alien concepts to your landscape. I do wish you well in your
quest.

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 more
along the lines of my mental game. I have certain
"support and resistance" levels in my mental game that
hinder my growth as a trader.
I would like to find someone who is an expert at assisting
others in overcoming mental roadblocks and what I call
"psychological capital drainage" factors.
For me, I have found that on any given day, after early
morning self-analysis, there's a certain amount of
emotional capital that I have to work with.
I've found that the amount of emotional capital that I
have in my "mental account" at any given time is of more
importance than any amount of capital that's in my
trading account.
Bottom line is this: I have challenges with growing that
amount of emotional capital -- by growing through my
challenges (hopefully with the assistance of a "mental
mentor" if you will) I will be able to grow my financial
account as well.
Soooo.....
With all that in mind -- could someone recommend a
one-on-one counselor, coach, mentor, or otherwise who
you are confident can assist me in growing through
my challenges?
Thanks again to all who are so kind and generous with
their time to reply.
Warmly,
Brian Keith Voiles

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
Next patient! <G>

Dr. Norm
Your Trading Doc
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.
