Day Trading - Our Daytrading Story
I've been a consultant / coach for over 30 years.
Helping trouble stock traders (for the past 8 years) shift from losing to consistently profitable winning, becoming wealth building millionaires - day trading.
Formerly (for about 25 years) consulted and coached CEO,s, executives, and business owners, helping them increase revenues, profits, and value of their companies.
Industries: banking, real estate, technology - and now day trading.
Working closely together, we dramatically enhanced presence and income, empowering them with vision, strategy, and trust, thus energizing their careers and businesses - allowing both to come alive with fresh and very rewarding personal, professional, and financial possibilities and results.
After a short retirement, I now help dissatisfied traders become consistently profitable winners - day trading stocks.

Day Trading Stocks - A new Day Trader Career
I retired almost 8 years ago.
I found retirement boring, so I took up day trading NASDAQ stocks on a whim.
Like other career development activities over the years, I did the research, found the best teachers to learn to be really good at what I was going to do to be a success in my new career as a day trader. I was certain the investment of my time and resources would pay off. Before
I started trading with cash, I read many trading books, took several expensive trading courses, attended seminars, joined trading rooms, and studied - then paper traded with a simulator.
Paper trading felt great and I was soon doing very well. After messing with computer problems and learning the software, I took the plunge - cash. In the beginning, I was confident, aggressive, and surprisingly moody, experiencing both highs and lows. I had my share of wins and losses, putting up with losses, as I was convinced that, with a little more experience and luck, I would do OK - I would become profitable.
I began to take losses, at times big losses. I became more cautious, not sure of myself, the markets, and the stocks I watched and traded. Now I was far from sure this business of day trading was going to work out as planned. I became skeptical of the system, my knowledge and skills in this area, my approach, and my ability to ever trade stocks well.
As a beginner, I enjoyed early periods of winning, and then quickly got disappointed with breakeven results. Then, surprisingly, not according to plan, that's for sure, I was losing more than winning. I was trading as a consistent loser - too emotional, too skeptical, and unsure of what to do next to make this work. I was taking many losses, huge losses.
Maybe trading stocks was not for me?
I continued trading and losing, trying anything new and different I read and heard about, always trying to figure out why I was losing hoping to discover a way to win.
Emotionally, I would get so upset with myself and the markets that by the end of the trading day I was exhausted and felt like a loser, not what I was at all used to in my life.
I went on losing more than winning, all the while determined to win somehow. I applied everything I learned from the experts. I kept reading, took more courses, yet I continued to lose.
I got so far behind that my only thoughts were to just get the money back - forget about making money - just get even. That didn't happen either.
Day trading turned out to be too much for me to take physically, emotionally, and especially financially.
I wasn't making progress, rather I could see that my trading was too emotional, emotionally charged and, at times, I traded recklessly—causing my losses to mount.
Much of the day I was pushing adrenalin, ranting on about how "they" were doing it to me again, and I recall having nervous twitching of sorts and both tension and pain in my chest and the back of my neck.
This is not good for me, I thought frequently. Time to take a break before I'm broken, I eventually said to myself.
I stopped trading.

A Wakeup Call
I didn't give up the idea of becoming a successful trader, mind you; but I had to put an end to my personal and financial suffering - to be able to focus on my weaknesses, what the markets and stocks were doing to me, in search for solutions.
I switched hats. Off with my loser's hat, on with my tried and true winner's (consultant) hat. I consulted myself.
First, I set out to understand why I was losing so often and what it was going to take to make money.
I observed the markets and stock price movements, free of trading tension, peacefully and objectively, in search for understanding in hopes for some sort of bridging the gap or breakthrough - I know well how to do.
After a few weeks, I began to notice certain price movements that occurred with major swings, repetitively and consistently. Strange, in a sense that the source of the movement was completely inconsistent from what I had learned about trading.
Bam!
In an instant, I began to see the source of all my losing, the source of all trader' losing. I'm talking about over 90% of all the traders in any market - just about everyone's losing.
I could clearly see what was really going on now. My trading game, the one all the experts continue to feed us to this very day, the one I invested a chunk of my life and resources in, didn't work in the past, wasn't working for me before I stopped trading, and, get this, would never work - frankly, I discovered it will never work.
I could see what I was blind to and what caused me to get so upset about while trading/losing.
I now know who really controls the market and individual stock prices - and who was completely our of control, me.
I figured out what caused me and all the other losing traders - the crowd - to lose so much was obvious and simple. But it was nothing close to what I had been told by the experts or what I anticipated.
Along with revealing the source of losing, I discovered, after a great deal of thought and conversation, exactly what I needed to do, what it would take to win again.

Learning to Win
About my perceived trading weaknesses, more so, my vulnerabilities (beyond my control), I knew I had to wake up to change:
- What's really going on
- Invent a way to deal with what I can do and cannot do to win,
- Maneuver with whatever the market gives me to be a winner
So, I needed to think differently, plan and strategize differently, and execute altogether differently, knowing what I learned what was really going on with the markets and stocks.
I had to reinvent myself and my system for trading to become a winner again.
I had to reinvent my entire game, if I wanted to win
-
Me, professionally - perspective, thinking, habits
-
My Health - attitude, mood, stress, and so on
-
My Game (system) - purpose, rules, when to trade & not trade
-
My Strategy & Tactics - get on the winner's track, execution
"Why (you might ask) did you go through all this?"
Any consultant, with just a bit of smarts, will tell you that a business in trouble competitively, a professional athlete who is no longer competitive, anyone in any business who cannot compete profitably, must take a break - to look at every single element/aspect of what they are up to, both the internal and external aspects, to your get your business/career on a winning/profitable track again.
Doing otherwise you get more of the same - disappointment, boredom, losing - or you are driven out of business, out of your mind.
Likewise for traders. Losing traders, be they bored, break even, or financially bleeding traders, like I was, must stop, take a break, then reevaluate everything about their business (otherwise commonly known as their game), internally and externally, to get at the root of whatever may be at the source of losing - to bridge the gaps to winning.
How?
With outside expertise - help. (Not possible on your own.)
Every losing trader needs this outside help to reveal what's missing and what needs to be provided (change) or implemented (learned) to ever have a chance to be successful and profitable trading stocks (for that matter, trading any of the unlimited range of financial instruments, no matter the time frame).
So what do losers need to look at and who do they need to help them transform and develop themselves personally and professionally as winners?
A qualified consultant/coach.
How do losers find a powerful, winning, profitable coach - to have a winner's game? That's the problem. Until now, until I came on the scene, this animal never existed.
So I became my own coach. Not an easy task, given objectivity is the first line of call. Remember I was still pissed as a loser.
By the way, should you now be thinking of trying this on your own, unless you've been at this consulting / coaching game for a while, I wouldn't suggest it.
Think long and hard once again. Winning is all about learning and learning does not occur, now will it ever occur, on your own.
You disagree?
That's OK, visit us again sometime soon, when you have a lot less money and sanity - for us to help you take care of yourself.
To make a long story short, I invented a way to win that I will share with you now.

A new trading game that, once mastered, helped this day trading consultant/coach, and can now quickly help all losers quickly learn to become winners, then consistently prifitable winners, then wealth building winners.

Learning to win is simple in context, yet challenging in practice - as it requires displacing the old with the new.
Displacing a loser's trading game with a freshly designed winner's game. Displacing the unlimited old-school rules and execution skills losers use with a few effective, new school rules that winners use.
