Topic

How to Stop Giving It All Back

Description

What happens to the trading mind that sets you up to give it all back after experiencing success? You know you can get it together and trade profitably. But it is clearly a pattern of sabotage that keeps happening. And it needs to be solved if you are going to become a consistently profitable trader.

Understanding the relationship between your ancient mammalian brain and your coveted Thinking Brain is the leap that needs to happen. In this webinar you will learn the 3 major ways that traders are Giving It All Back. And you will learn what it takes to create the mind that is consistent when you start winning, so you don’t fall into self-sabotage.

About Rande
Rande Howell teaches traders how to master their instinctive emotional reactivity to situations that they cannot control. Learning to regulate the fight/flight response to perceived danger is the first step in a process that leads to building an intentional mind built for managing the drama of uncertainty. He is particularly known for getting at and changing deeply held self-limiting beliefs about a trader’s capacity to manage the uncertainties of life and trading. He teaches that the trader does not control outcome, but he does control the mind he brings into the moment of performance. This is the psychological edge needed to drive a trader’s methodology edge.

He was rewarded the FinTech Award for Best Trading Psychology Educator and has lectured extensively in the United States, Europe, Asia, and Australia. His primary goal is to teach people how to awaken and claim the power that lives within us. He is author of a number of books including Mindful Trading: Mastering the Inner Game of Trading.
