Fundamental rules

After reading some blogs, I decided to remind my basic rules again( somewhere in the blog already quoted), then , what has been observed by me for a long time. You know a lot, but nevertheless I wrote this " under my own sauce '', because 'suffered" :))
These rules will help you " to stay afloat" long time, subject to correct positioning.
Market success is not about quick and big " win '', and in the systematic accumulation of profits with minimal risks.
I watch often, that many beginners or those, ko thinks that, after selling for a couple of years , he has the right to give advice to the left and to the right, uses terminology, not understanding the essence.
For example, is it possible to download the entire deposit!? And no one will even mind, that it depends on the characteristics of the financial instrument. It is necessary not only to look at the shoulder, but also on the maximum deviations of a particular instrument in a period of time( laying extreme value). You can buy liquid shares of many American companies for the entire deposit, which do not change in a month 5%.
AND ,you are welcome, don't listen to those, who knows how to teach and criticize, without showing your results. Reminds me of a thief, screaming " stop thief '.
And there are also such, who points a finger at….They are cynics. CYNIC- it's not just that, who teaches on the bitter lessons of the past; it is he who prematurely disappoints in the upcoming.
And than ,a priori ,they , who usually criticizes and lectures, in fact they can not do anything.

1. Be emotionally ready to trade, no greed and fear( emotional preparation)

2. A trading plan must be prepared in advance( analytical training)
3. Correct positioning – recipe for success, don't try to catch the bottom and top( Trend is your friend)

4. Eliminate Bad Trades Immediately , keep the winning, don't bring a winning trade to a loss( Wealth Management)

5. Don't load all the money at once, add to winning trades, don't average losing trades. Enter and exit the market gradually, don't be greedy.

«Bulls and bears make money, and the pigs are losing»

6. Always evaluate the risk-reward ratio, be patient, «trade must come to you, you don't need to chase him».

7. Be emotionally balanced with losses, they are part of the business.

8. .If the position is in doubt, do not guess and do not suffer , but liquidate the position.

9. Avoid making the same mistakes and constantly improve your technique, but don't over complicate.

10. Don't Think, that you are smarter than the market. The market is always right. Trade what you see, and not that, what do you think!

10and. Be disciplined and strictly follow the rules, be sure ( but not presumptuous)in my own power and the result will come.

NFP

 The data came out worse, than the forecast, therefore, such intraday GEPs for many instruments. Today is Friday, therefore volatility – TO BE.

categorization “Vernyakov”

1. absolute surefire – this is when there is a level, stretching already 2 sessions or more, and there is a large bid / ask exactly at this level price
2. middle surefire – this is when there is a local high or low for the current session and a large bid / ask hangs on it
3. weak surefire – same local high or low, but the tape shows the presence of a hidden seller / buyer at this point when you zoom in again

ps: I would never have believed two months ago, what i will understand now glass and nyse tape so – as I understand it now. really this is a very simple formula , which I briefly heard about here , then there `` you just have to be in the market and look stupidly every day ''. over time, the eye will begin to notice patterns in certain actions on the market.

pps: if you add up the time per day, which I give to the market, then it is at least 10h. per day, and in some 2-3 days of the week, the total operating time reaches at least 12 hours.. ie. obviously, that I'm all there. Yes, and I am dragged in general from all these processes :) maybe this is the formula for success??

I almost forgot

I almost forgot why we need rules.

I rested yesterday. Good. Today is good too. I think I won't climb on Friday either. I will close the week in the mega-minus. Bad for statistics and to hell with it.

If you do something wrong, what to stop. But indicators are needed. Thinking about the current trade in the context of the past is one such indicator. I had such crap.

I also had thoughts about drastic measures. So to speak about surgery.

WOW

 WOW

This is the fall of commercial real estate! 


Evening exercise

They dragged me addicted to the Internet and information flow to walk around Moscow. I will present to your attention a couple of photos.


About trading and related emotions

This post is addressed to young traders, but it may be useful to others.

Trading – this is not a part-time job, and real work. Very heavy, but incredibly interesting.
You can't come here for half a year or a year. Only for a long time.

Training can take a huge period of time. We are all different people.
I, for example, used to be fond of bodybuilding, so very disciplined and emotion for me – little problem.
Someone emotionally will be harder., but he is easier to master the technical side.

Anyway, you need to give yourself time to study.

Decide for yourself – are you ready to come into trading and stay in this profession? 

If not, then you better not go to this profession. Nothing good will come of it.
Probably, you have a bad opinion of him.

It often happens., that a person comes to this job and begins to make profitable deals almost immediately.
But it's too early for him to rejoice. Actually, his success plays a cruel joke on him.
This person can easily star and merge after a while..

Main, what young traders need to understand – you came to work. Not many years, you can safely spend a year or two studying.
Work your hardest. Even if you make money right away. You cannot relax.

The better you are at trading – the more you need to limit yourself, punish and not let loose.

What I want to tell people over twenty or thirty years old – the road to this business is not closed for you.
You may feel sorry for spending several years of your life on another study..
Again understand – trading is not a clear science, there are no iron rules.
Your three higher educations won't mean anything here..
Many very rich people came here, who have built their business in other areas, and lost.
There are completely different laws. You need to learn completely different things.. It takes time..

All you need to decide is `` seriously and for a long time" or "a little bit".

If you chose the first – then someday you will succeed. If the second – choose another profession.
