In part 4 of Tom Hougaard’s Trading Psychology presentation, he discusses what we can do to differentiate ourselves from the “normal” when trading on the stock market.
He dives into our cognitive processes, with both the conscious and subconscious reasons we have for our actions when stock trading. Hougaard talks about writing his debut novel; why he chose to write it and the process behind it.
Hougaard critiques the attitude of taking a ‘half-profit’, then concludes this part by giving a 6-step mental foundation for profitable trading.

Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money.

[@MarkGrimm8]

Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are alot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.

[@LukeMcfarlane5]

The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.

My advisor is Dawn Maureen Humphrey she’s highly qualified and experienced in the financial market. She has extensive knowledge of portfolio diversity and is considered an expert in the field. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market

[@ryuxfx52]

I've been studying trading since 15, 18 now. This is incredible advice. I was so excited as I studied this because he's making a lot of great points. You have to fight your normal human psychology to win in the markets. Everything began to switch when I started mastering myself and my emotions. Sticking to a pre defined plan. Accepting that entering trades is exposing yourself to the randomness of the market that you should not try to predict. Instead focus on what you can control. My early trading desire to focus on techincals and knowing exactly what the market is doing was founded on the false premise that I could learn to predict the market. It only ended up in frustration which led to studying more about technicals which restarted the cycle. I've studied hundreds of trading videos and watched hundreds of hours of trading content. This is one of the best things I have seen.
