Trading Mindset and Psychology



EVER QUESTIONED YOUR TRADING ABILITY?

If you have ever held onto a trade too long, hesitated on getting into a trade, been nervous about pulling the trigger and you are starting to doubt yourself or your trading plan.
Get the most comprehensive and practical trading psychology program that actual successful professional traders use to master their emotions and lock in the potential for profits…
Welcome to Mindset Mastery. Whether you trade options, stocks, fx, indices futures or CFD’s. I’d like to ask you ask you a question? Have you ever gone to place a trade – hesitated, recalculated, hesitated – and then missed the trade?
Or perhaps instead jumped into the trade too early? In both cases missing big profits and instead resulting in yet another loss??
Perhaps you have spent months or even years studying, back testing, attending seminars, webinars and paper trading and can’t quite get it to stick…
How about maybe you have done a trading course, or more likely courses… You follow the instructions to the letter – you have constructed your plan, you have back tested it, you fund your account – the set up looks great – you click the trigger…
Everything exactly as it should be – AND you get stopped out…. Ouch! But no problem – you are motivated – you get back on the horse and go again
BABOOM – same outcome – another stop out. But that’s ok some trades work – others don’t and you know this – you have confidence in your system and training after all, you spent months getting ready to start.
The next trade presents itself – and you hesitate – maybe you should just watch that one and see if your system would have worked – and BAM – A big profit – that would have helped you back to profit on your account is missed….
What’s more, now there is a conflict because in your plan it said to take every trade!!

Understanding Interest Rate Cuts: How They Affect You, the Market, and Insights from Andrew Baxter

  Interest rates play a crucial role in shaping various facets of the economy, influencing loan costs, housing markets, and consumer spending patterns. Recent fluctuations in interest rates , particularly in countries like the United States and Australia, have sparked discussions about their potential impact on economic conditions in the near future. Analyzing Interest Rate Cuts: Benefits and Drawbacks Australia’s recent decision to reduce rates by 25 basis points marks the first cut in recent years, igniting significant debate over its implications. Homeowners with variable-rate mortgages stand to gain, but there are fears that the cut may be excessive. For mortgage holders, this decrease could facilitate faster debt repayment and enhance their ability to spend. Conversely, many Australians without mortgages may not experience any direct advantages from this change. On the downside, retirees who depend on interest income from bank deposits are likely to face reduced returns. Rate ...

Australian or U.S. Stocks: Which Delivers Better Returns? | Andrew Baxter Insights

  In today’s fast-changing market landscape, knowing where to invest your money has never been more critical. Both the Australian and U.S. stock markets offer unique advantages, but understanding their differences can give investors the confidence to make more informed decisions. This article explores key distinctions, market trends, and essential factors to help guide your investment strategy. The Power—and Pitfall—of Local Bias Australian investors often gravitate toward domestic equities, and for good reason: there’s comfort in familiarity. Local companies are household names, operate in a shared timezone, and are heavily weighted in Australian-managed funds. This can create a home-country bias that leads to an overweight in Australian stocks. However, Australia's market represents less than 2% of global equities, while the U.S. accounts for nearly 45%. A globally balanced portfolio should reflect that reality—though in practice, many portfolios fall short. Performance Snapshot:...
