The Monster Within Me
There is a monster within me. His name is Phil. These are the journal's that will record my battle with the monster and his attempt to keep me as a losing trader. But I will prevail and learn to control this monster within me. I will be a great trader, I will be in control of who I want to be.
I will SLAY THE MONSTER within me so that it can no longer control me and my thoughts.
By becoming an Observer of the self, I give authority to the Empowered parts, to be all I can become.

Big Error

The big Error today was one of things I tend to deal with because I tend to not view my trading as a real job as when you are at work for someone you are not available.  So today I was unable to trade because I scheduled a Dr. appointment first thing in the morning.  Error. My job is trading and I am unavailable till noon PST.  When I make this error I could be not making good trades that help me to get through the days when the market is not giving me my good set ups.  As I look at todays charts, I missed some good moves.  I am not going to let this error happen unless it is really important.

Last night I did something that may help to remind me that I am a Professional trader and not an Amateur.
It printed out on a sheet of paper this statement-   Is what you are doing now or want to do something that a Professional would do or are you being a Amateur?
I then folded it so that it would stay on my keyboard and mouse, so that I would have to move it before I could actually take any action typing or moving the mouse.  I am interested to see how this helps me trade as a Pro rather than a Amateur.
Weekend here. rest
