Other Day Trading - Distractions
Your Stock Trading Game
Of the losing factors above, losers have no idea that their day trading game - stock trading strategy, stock trading system they have relied on since they started trading - is killing them.
The day trading game has changed, radically changed, nearly every aspect of day trading has changed to the disadvantage of 98% of all traders world-wide.
The stock trading game has changed;
so have we,
and so can you.
Losing traders never stop learning how to lose by reading and rereading obsolete trading books, attend old-school trading courses and traveling to trading expos — filling their heads with everything they need to know about what? (You guessed it again, Losing.)
Losers soon get very good at what they know best - Losing.
^back to topTrader Arrogance
The mood of arrogance, a combination of pretending to know and protecting what they know, can short circuit your getting what you want out of your life.
Arrogance, attempting to be right a lot, is at the source of all losing.
Arrogance is at the source of all failed businesses, failed relationships, and losing in all kinds of sports games - especially the stock trading game.
"So how can I learn to trade well?"
Losers need to head this wake-up call before they blow up emotionally, blow out financially, or both.
This is your call to corrective action— it's now your decision to continue losing or finally get help to shift from losing to winning.
Losers need to be willing to learn to trade all over again - to ever be able to win with a sense of freedom and control, stock trading humility, and the complete absence of fear and self doubt - like kids learning how to play very challenging computer games.
As you know, most kids are fearless. They have little to no bias, virtually no expectations (well, other than the expectation of winning) - just a mood of wonder, commitment, and endless passion to win.
So, like children playing in the sand box or playing new computer games, with complete focus is on learning to win, stock traders can learn the new stock trading game with our help.
They say kids have lots to learn from their elders. Well, when it comes to learning to trade well, we have a lot to learn from all the playful, innovative, passionate kids — their way of learni
You'll see.
So, losing traders need to learn to trade all over again— trading a game that's at least winnable, not the one they know only perpetuates losing.
We have that new game, the winner's game, and the Trading Power learning program for want-to-be winners to quickly shift from losing to winning, then consistently & profitably winning.

"Why haven't I heard about all this before?"
Possible reasons:
- You weren't ready, or you weren't listening, or both
- Winners are not about to tell you about their trade secrets,
- Arrogance - not open, the very weakness that cripples your trading
Lacking Trust - at the Core of Losing
Again, 3 crucial elements for trust missing to get help:
- Sincerity - authentic relationships
- Competence - gaining competence, then mastery with a coach
- Performance results - winning, consistently winning
Winning requires the opposite - gaining competence for intuitive, effective stock trades execution, learning to lose, learning to win, then consistently win - and the profits will come rolling in.

Shift from Losing to Winning
Losers continue to trade in a funk - vulnerable and, frankly, extremely gullible about competing with traders who out to trick them into losing.
From Mental Edge, a MarketWise.com (Terra Nova Financial Group Company) an article titled "Motivating Thought by Michael Shopshire, PhD—there are 2 quotes of interest about losing:
"Our greatest glory is not never falling, but in rising every time we fall" - Confucius.
The more trader fall, the longer it takes to get up - eventually they just quit, beaten of their hard earned money and esteem.
In his interview in Market Wizards, Dr Van Tharp describes the characteristics of a losing trader: "The composite profile of a losing trader would be someone who in highly stressed and has little protection from stress, has a negative outlook in life and expects the worst, has a lot of conflict in his/her personality, and blames others when things go wrong."
Losers go on playing their old school trading game, applying obsolete rules, unwilling to change anything about their losing stock trading game - perspective, thinking, habits.
You can only change your negative trading stress and your lack of trading control by changing both your attitude and then just about your entire trading game - both of which you have not been able to do, nor will you ever be able to do, in my judgment, on your own.
"So, how can I change - my attitude and my trading game?"
"How can I become a peaceful, profitable trader?"
Losers persist in trading on their own — as they don't yet know of any other way to trade.
Again, it's a combination of distrust of others, who failed them in the past, and arrogance - all the while thinking/hoping, "I'll figure this out on my own, just like I have in all the other areas of my life, particularly as I did in my business (or my job), where whenever I found myself in trouble, I somehow came through a winner."
Losers don't seem to understand why they lose.
Losers don't really know what's going on with the trading game that presents enormous financial vulnerability. Losers don't know what's at the very source of losing. So they just keep on trading this way, with more losses than wins, then they trade with bigger and bigger losses as try to get even, again, on their own.
Losers continue with what they think matters but don't seem to help. So, they take more old school courses, read another obsolete book or two, and so on, yet they keep on losing. It's a vicious and painful losing cycle that never seems to come to an end, no matter their intention, passion, or the level of spending they commit to get something new or learn something new, to turn this losing around.
Since the technology bubble, day trading, all trading for that matter, has changed radically. Don't tell the losers. You may be accused of being a weirdo, giving them this information. It goes against human nature, arrogance, procrastination, and stick-to-itiveness, all of which keep them stuck in their losing ways.
If you want to win in this market, you better be prepared for a lot of change, so you can compete with the big money winners.
Trading attitudes have changed, trading plans and trading rules have all changed, and even the point for trading itself has changed.
So losers haven't the foggiest idea of what's really going on - what's at the source of losing.
My passion and the primary purpose for this website, aside from the possibility of doing business, is to help troubled traders see what they are up against in the trading business.
As well we want to let traders know that unless the are willing to change their trading game, the best approach is to quit the trading game.
So, now you know much more about your losing.
The question is - what are you going to do about all this, so you too can become a consistently profitable winning trader?
Will you walk away, quit the trading game for good, soon to restore your dignity and keep whatever net worth you have left for another day.
Without help, you will never make it on your own, perpetuating the only game you know - losing?
"How can I learn the new stock trading game?"
"How can I discover the new day trading strategies?"
I'm going to repeat this, once again as you need to get this.
At the source of all your losing is a sea of change in the stock trading game, all trading games, for that matter.
Big money, smart money traders created a clever way, with their sophisticated software, to trick you into losing.
Scientifically designed software (carefully programmed with all that you have learned about stock trading and all that you continue to do as you execute your trades) has changed the trading game, everything about trading — forever.
Even though big money has the trading game "stacked" against the average trader (much like the Vegas establishments with various gambling games stacked against gamblers), losers are either unaware this is going on and/or, when they do become aware, like you right now, they refuse to accept their plight, and they stubbornly fail to do something about this problem, to ever be able gain the composure and control to win again.
Big money loves it.
They love playing their winning game against your losing game.
Market makers love it, and the quant hedge funds love all the losers out there. They love the money being made from the crowd of losers and prefer to keep this software advantage just like it is while innovating continuously to devise new tricky way to take your money.
So in answer to the question above, "how can you learn to be a winner again?" — you need to displace everything you know to lose that I have been talking about, that only results with your continued losing with a means for winning, to ever have a chance of winning again.
For that, in my view, you need to learn the new trading game with an actively trading, new game coach, playing the new-school stock trading game, with other winners in a stock trading room.
You guessed it. We have exactly what qualified traders need to turn their trading ship around.
You only need to ask for help.
^back to topDay Traders Win — Why we Exist
The purpose our website and our services is first about helping stock traders wake up to what's really going on with losing, for them to come to the decision to stop trading or get help to learn to trade with the smart money traders, learn the new day trading game.
"It's the game stupid." No offense.
Losers have absolutely no choice but to change their game, if they want to make serious money that is.
As well, losers will need to dramatically shift their attitude: their thinking, their habits, and the way make all their trading decisions and execute trades - to ever be profitable traders.
Now that's a lot of change.
"What makes you so sure of yourself?"
"Why are you so arrogant about all this?"
Think about it.
My arrogance comes from a context of winning, not losing, from success, not suffering.
I think you can see the difference.
My arrogance as a coach, as the guy who invented this new stock trading game in the first place, you might agreed, is not only needed to effect change, but justified from the experience of winning, growing winners.
No one knows, beyond a few moments, what's going to happen next in the day trading arena. Those that offer you otherwise products and services are motivated by that, not making you a winner.
Call what I do, if you like, as a conveyance of stock trader wisdom, with more than a touch of confidence and passion, to help losers become winners.
Losers insist on trading as though they can forecast and predict—using picks of the day, yesterday's data, and just about every service on the internet designed to do the same - keep you extremely busy, losing.
That's the loser's crowd think.
That's what losers have been trained to do for years and refuse to do anything but. Well, I'm here to turn that around.
I do my best to do otherwise.
I usually don't forecast beyond seconds, maybe minutes. I try not to predict and prefer winning with objective observations of trader behavior and price movements, intuitively, in the now - real-time.
So, there you go - you have my secret.
Go out and try this on your own some time.
Good luck, you'll need lots of it and them some to be a winner in this new game of day trading stock.
Better yet, just call me for some help, whether you become a client or not.
Seriously, you can call me any time with your concerns and questions.
That's what I'm here for - to help traders kill losing, once and for all.

As a consultant / coach, for what seems like forever now, that's what I help traders do best—change.

So there you have it.
You now know how and why you lose.
You also know winning requires that both you and trading system/game, what I refer to as the day trading game, must change — for you to ever get what you want and need — consistently and profitably winning.
