Traders' Coach (Woman)

Quote from chessman:

Yes, thanks for your detailed answer.

As you know self Sabatoge is very common among traders, it is that repeated destructive behaviour which I find very interesting.

Ed Seykota has developed a similar technique, however his theory is that the there is a disconnect between the conscious and subconscious mind; in your example Ed would say that the unconscious wants the trader to fully experience the FEELINGS of 'stupidity'. It wants to communicate the feeling of feeling stupid to the conscious mind.

Let's say a child has a stuttering problem in pre-school, and is repeatedly teased. He is not able to resolve that feeling, so the subconscious mind for the rest of his life keeps on getting him in situations where he feels 'stupid'. Ed has a good writeup on his site.

I believe this element of 'Feelings' is very important, and is the common thread in your work and Ed's.

All the best

The idea is that the unconscious is giving the person the idea to correct the original problem by continuning to create it - if the associated feeling can be brought into consciousness and felt - ie energy of the feeling expended and released - then the unconscious will not have to try to get it to the 'surface' anymore.... and the behavior will change, relatively effortlessly.

thanks for the reply

Heh???

Are you having problems understanding what you write?

Real FREEDOM = Reality... So what it doesn't exist?

Think before you write...

I read it in Trader Tribe...

I agree to this. I don't see myself having all events "surface"

I don't have the active sense of taking a dump "surface"...

I don't have the active sense of my heart beating "surface"

I don't have the sense of jacking off... wait that definitely "surfaces" ... LOL

Actually, it is you who is having problem understanding what I wrote.
You obviously never experienced freedom.
Do not drink before you read and post, or is that your full capacity displayed ?

" So what it doesn't exist ? "

Brilliant .....

Heh...

REAL Freedom exists but it is gone when reality kicks in...

That's your perception of real FREEDOM? correct?

What is REAL if it doesn't exist in reality?

You're mentioning about cause and effect. That's a different matter of subject but from what you mention. You seem to have a sense that an effect kicks in with some time lag. Is that your thought?

If it is, then I don't agree. Cause and Effect are a flowing matter. There is only a lag of recognition of the effect and that effect expresses themselves when the causal event is occuring. If this world is boundless from cause and effect, then there's choice and consequences. There's always a bound of freedom.

Anyways, there is no real freedom...

Also, don't come up with some Descartes with... what do you or I percieve as reality...

" Freedom exists and is offered to us daily as we are facing choices regarding jobs, relationships and such. Then reality kicks in and we chicken out and choose comfortable way. Because we are rejecting freedom , it does not mean that freedom does not exists. Freedom is not free and most of us are not willing to make sacrifices to achieve it . "


Anyways, there is no real freedom...

" yes it is but you are not ready to die for it "
