Mind and Method - of a High Stake Trader

Why are we sharing? “ You know, if you think about the very nature of life. I mean, from the very beginning. The development of the first cell divided into two cells. The sole purpose of life has been to pass on what was learned. There is no higher purpose. So if you're asking me what to do with all this knowledge you're accumulating. I'd say, pass it on. Just like any simple cell going through time. “ Movie quote from “Lucy”. Earlier in 2022 I was asked if I wanted to give a talk about trading for the IX show in London. I agreed and hired a film crew, just to capture this moment in time. Unfortunately, the location was awful, and the acoustic was terrible. The recording was never intended for commercial purposes, but I decided not to publish the recording. Then my “wing-man” and fellow trader Lennie persuaded me to hand it over the recording to him. Over the last 6 months Lennie has worked on the audio and the visual, and he has created something, which is still sub-optimal, but it is a significant improvement to the original version. So, if you want to thank anybody for this, please thank Lennie. Without him, this would never have seen the light of day. This recording shows me trade live, while educating a small crowd of 25 people. The cost was £175 to attend and all proceeds went to the organiser to support the show. I have worked with the IX show and Simon Campel for 20 years, since I was working at City Index. He is a fine friend and gentleman and the IX show follows an ethos I can get behind: share knowledge. So what can you expect from this video? 1/ my take on research and how I conduct my research 2/ how I manage a live trade – I think I was trading £200 a point in the FTSE 3/ how I appreciate my fear-based mind and how I tame it I hope you enjoy it, and if you do, please send Lennie a thank you. He really does deserve the applause for making this happen. #TradersMindset #TradingPsychology #DayTradingPsychology
