Right. Doing meditation to help trading is kinda demeaning.

The most important thing is to find an edge yourself... the preferred edge would be to frontrun buyers and sellers... and not curve fitting hit or missed magic, math and theories. Even statistical models are questionable for retail traders.

Hey Brett, Can you write some shorten book? Your material is good but it's too damn long. Regards, William

Steenbarger. I don't think douglas can trade better than he plagiarize from eastern philosophy.

We don't need somebody else to tell us... Just look out there... It's your mind. :) Now do you want the blue pill or the red pill?

Well that's trading... it will rarely be perfect. You can beat yourself up... you can make money... you can lose money but whatever you do... DON'T DEVIATE FROM THE PLAN. When you deviate, steer back the best you can - that is trading. Good job but stay with the plan. next! Comment from a...

Keep up with the good work gutsy. Remember our enemies is us. Manage the pressure and tilt. Always steer back when things get off track like on a snow road... don't let it slide. Tighten up the defense.

Hey gutsy, Good to hear that you are back. I tried to watch your system a little bit after market... I have a question, say the institution is planning to buy a basket of stocks... First it sells the first basket to hit the stops to lock in the price with ES. Between the selling the first...

hi mschey, 1st answer to the question: do nothing because I am not sure. After seeing the chart, 2nd answer to the question: do nothing because at that point price is comfortable rotating inside a range - in balance.... It could go either way.

In noise... Stillness of mind is what it is... not better than noise. In noise... There is no preference or abandonment. In noise... When "market" is... concepts arised. In noise... When all is dropped, there is neither trader nor the market. In noise... Recognition is...

Because we are talking in concepts here and that is as close as you can get. Otherwise, everybody would be silent in expressing the truth but then you wouldn't know who gets a little of it and who is pretending and who is just spacing out.

Hi gutsy, Just finished the entire journal. Nice read. At first I thought your method requires a lot of quick scalps but looks like it is working fine for you since 3 trades a day is not bad. I don't see any problem except some tilting after some losses (11/14) and adding contracts too...

Hey gutsy, I read pass half of your journal. I would say you are a generous man. I can also see why the pro spent the time on you. Here is my feedback for the first half but I must warn you I am not in any position to give advice: 1) Priority #1 is your family. Stay focus in...

There is a meditation exercise to see so-called "pure vision" or your imaginary deity as illusory... Yes ILLUSORY. The pure vision is a tool to be discarded at certain stage of development.... The entire path is all fucking engineered and tuned. If one hasn't gone thru the entire process, yes...

Vhehn, We have never ever dealed with reality... ever. We always fixate upon our own conceptual imputations. If you have already see beyond the mess, recognize beyond the mess is same nature with the mess and therefore there is no need to strive... all the power to you. Otherwise if...

Good for you gutsy. Just keep bare minimum in the account while fixing problems. This way if the trading got off track, you would have to take a break to wire money in. What you are experiencing is "tilting", try the stuff I PM you and watch for tilt. Also visit Mike Caro's poker university...

Rigid belief system is used as a spring board... Total submission is used to touch the heart so the conceptual entanglements would fall apart (at least for short span of time). Liberation is when you see these as a "mere" tools to inspire recognition of the nature of cognition and hence nature...

Hi gutsy I hope you are Ok. I would google the poker term "tilt" and do some detail research on it. Always go straight to the problem. Don't rush things... it never helps. good trading, William

Al, Personally, integrating religion and trading is tough... just like integrating the job and religion. Not that they don't mix... it is just the weakness of our own mind to stay the course (practice). I found poker to be a very good analogy for trading and I am not a poker player but I...

squad, Buddhist believes everybody (including the little ants who wants happiness) is equal in nature (nature of mind). It is said in the scripture, your nature did not become better when you become a Buddha. Preconceived view can be a trap.
