Risk predisposition

What kind of job would you like more: and, on which they pay a stable small salary or that, not to which the salary is high, but unstable? The answer to this question will allow you to determine your preferences and risk tolerance..

Modesty is the key to success

5 years ago, I wrote a book called "Successful Trader". Mental state necessary for success in the market". When it came to initiation, I decided to dedicate the book “Traders, who don't want fame ". During my work, I had to meet many traders, who failed due to an inferiority complex. They felt like worthless losers, inferior people and were not sure of their life goals. For them, trading is a way to prove to themselves, that they are worth something in life. They feel, that the more money they have, the more they are significant as individuals. But in reality it’s not like that. Traders, who are looking for wealth and fame, as a rule, failure awaits. Modest traders become winners.

Individuality and trade

In an interview with Market Wizards, Dr. Van K. Tharp gives a characte to a trader - a loser. A common trait of all losers is a high susceptibility to stress and an inability to defend against stress.. They have a negative outlook on life., they expect the worst, they have many conflicts with their own personality. They tend to blame others., when something goes wrong. This portrait has a foundation. If a trader is easily excited and at the same time pessimistic, he cannot effectively use his skills and abilities, does not believe in that, that he will be able to achieve success in the long term and remain in the exchange business. Despite, that there is a general idea that, who can become a successful trader, scientific work on this topic is almost unknown.

Failures and great people

Winston Churchill once said: “Never, never, never give up”. The British prime minister knew how to achieve his goals. As a result, it was he who became that person, thanks to which the nation was saved. However, Churchill managed to occupy such a high post in the government far from the first time.. Stubbornly running as a candidate for every election, is he, eventually, got his way, becoming prime minister of Great Britain at the age of 62 of the year. History is full of examples, when strong-minded people achieved their goals, no matter what the circumstances. Abraham Lincoln went to war with the rank of captain, and returned as a private. Deciding to do business, he burned out and was forced to abandon his idea. In the field of lawyer, he also suffered a failure.. The reason for this was his quick-tempered nature and impracticality.. Having retrained into politics, he made a number of attempts in this arena, but here too he suffered a series of crushing failures.
