Quote from Dustin:

I read Trading In The Zone and had trouble staying awake while reading it. The book just didn't apply to my style of trading. In my opinion psychology only applies to beginner traders, or traders who trade solely on discretion. If you have a strategy or an edge that you know is profitable then this stuff just doens't matter imo.

Pychology is for stragglers, and begginers, as well as profitable people (in their respective field).

I really disagree with those who think the mind and emotions do not effect their trading. It is the MOST important aspect of trading. Trading more than any other field relies on decisions and judgments based on what you think you can get from the market, and what you can lose from the market. you may be making money, but will never acheive your true potential without a great self image and positive attitude . Along with the abondonment of fear. I am glad your doing good but imo you could be doin better.

IMHO:

Trading is a game of will, not a game of skill.
