The Mindset of a Trader | Hicham Benjelloun | TEDxYouth@RAS

This video is a gem. Probability is the soul of the trading game. Once you understand that probability is in your favor, it eliminates fear. The two strongest emotions i've had to deal with trading is Fear and Greed.

[@NeerajYadav-yl2kl]

Dealing with it now brother, this video helped me alot

[@shortbusrob4073]

If you think about it, greed is FOMO, so therefore the only emotion you have if fear just different types.

[@chrislite9804]

[@Bubele_be_Mvelo]

Fear is relatively easier to conquer although it is the epicentre of ALL human emotions. Greed is the grim monster that kills every good run you experience and takes you back to Fear and the cycle repeats.

“The extend of success is pure luck. Do not expect to be a statistical error, expect something good to happen.” This sentence is the most truth I heared in a long time.

[@Bubele_be_Mvelo]

I disagree. There is no luck in trading. Trading is a science. You need to understand the technical and mechanical aspects of the 'thing' that delivers Price and why it's doing what it's doing at a specific point.

Its funny how the speaker is so akward , so not likeable (he is not unlikeable or dislikeable, you get me tho) and talking about something so raw and superficial like trading, and yet he provided better subject material about depression, mindfullness, anxiety and success than any video I have seen in the past few years. His perspective and his overall speech ties a lot of things together, giving us a clear (not simple) way of approaching not only trading but also life in general. A most impressive TEDx talk.

[@faismeen]

1. Replace Positivity with Clarity and Hope with Focus 2. Know the gap between what you want and what you have 3. Stop impacting the emotions that you have within you 4. One cannot judge things well if he/she is positive because positive is tomorrow 5. Reality expectations - things are as good as you think. Don’t expect too much but expect that can happen 6. Statistical outliers 7. Don’t go miracles or magical - Go mechanicals

I am a trader and spend too much time to learn and try to find a very good strategy to be always right when I place a trade but i am wrong,and i know most of new people those who come in market they try to find a magical strategy to be always right.

Find a model. Backtest it. Give yourself a set amount of money you’re willing to lose. Think of this as your education. Try to have it last over the course of 1-3 years. Practice practice practice.

[@Discipline-s4i]

After sharing this video to my friend after a serious argument, he now understands why I told him that, * psychology is the key to success in trading not even 50% of your trading strategy*. the argument started when I went too far saying psychology plays 80% of it all, the strategy is just to help you know when to buy or sell. After hitting one big loss, he nearly shifted strategy because it wasn't helping him to recover, then I still told him the same thing, its psychology not strategy, and this time it wasn't face to face conversation so we were waiting to meet in person for argument episode 2 till I saw this content. I really appreciate this

[@vetothag0d]

if that's not obvious as it is then I don't know what else can make it more obvious. Every decision you make stems from your perspective and bias relative to your past, current and knowable future circumstance, the superpower is to step outside of that and create every decision from observing and being unbiased to your own circumstance wether good or bad. The Analytical mind if put in a certain environment self-sabotages instead of rebuilding. if it feels as though it is at a loss because, it will struggle and flail it's arms uncontrollably in hopes to swim so as to not sink, the goal is to be so still you don't sink, struggling only gets you deeper in the quicksand. The survival brain is not fit to make clear judgements.

[@SistemAX-21]

as a trader who has been actively trading the stock market for 6 years, i can say that this gentleman has a point when he talks about a trader does not trade based on hope or positive mindset, yes he is right. A pro trader trades basen on statistics, or numbers which can be trusted and rely on.

Beautiful way of representing the concept 🤝

[@RogerThat21]

We all have heard that trading profitably is more about our psychology than about the technical method we use to trade. But I never thought in trying to understand my trading psychology I would have to go deeper into human evolutionary psychology. Why we think the way we do? Because we are conditioned that way by evolution for survival. And survival works relying upon determinism & certainty & not probability. So our minds cannot handle probability that good. So we have to eliminate the mind. Go silent. And here again I did not imagine that my spirituality path would intersect with my trading path. In spirituality the end goal is to try to silence the mind so that we can see our true nature. Because as the saying goes - "We suffer more in our imagination than in reality". So the mind, especially the emotinal mind creates more problems for us than it solves. We cannot eliminate it completely as that's a part of us, that is us. The most we can do is manage it.

TBH with my 1 year trading experience 😂, I would say the most important thing is to manage risk , if you have more of a loss than you can take I would say cut it.
