My sensitivity to gut feelings is off the charts. Growing up I was the most sensitive person you ever know... Never thought it was a good thing so this is kinda reassuring.

Human traders can beat algorithms by relying on gut feeling, study shows
- Thread starter dealmaker
- Start date
when you disregard your 'gut' and marry into a position, that's where the trouble starts.
It all starts going wrong when market does not do what your guts want it to do , then it's human emotions , stress , revenge trading , the need to be right and graveyard.
There is no structure in the mind , which can be repeated year after year ..............but guts , emotions , testetrones , courage , strength , indiciplined trades , gut revenge , reactive trades
All the pretenders on forums make these useless discussions , when they have not done it , or have any proof it is done succesfully.
I can understand if successfull traders were posting here , after beating algos year after year.Let us suck up to bein great traders , beating the algos year after year.
Writers write because they get paid to write , as long as it sells newspapers , they can write garbage.
This is all nonsensene traders below

Anecdotally speaking, I think this is true. I can't even tell you how many times that I've been watching the markets and had a gut feeling to buy or sell and a major move occurred right after. For some odd reason, I'd talk myself out of following this intuition damn near every time...and this gut feeling turned out to be right 9 times out 10.
Yes. A study has been done on George Soros backache selling tactic to quantify it. There is much more to it thsn these simple minds can grasp.
It's negative emotions that stray you away from your gut or a disbelief/doubt in it.It all starts going wrong when market does not do what your guts want it to do , then it's human emotions , stress , revenge trading , the need to be right and graveyard.

Good luck is all I can say!

I doubt this approach would be effective for many, however I know with certainty that generally in life there are some highly disciplined people who are also highly instinctive. I think a trader relying on gut feeling can survive if (s)he is highly disciplined.
