How To Become A Trading Nomad And Trade From Anywhere

Nial Fuller — Fri, 05 Jul 2019 11:18:05 +0000

In my experience, the best and fastest way to make money trading is to take a low-frequency, ‘hands-off’ approach. If you’ve been following me for any length of time you probably already knew this, but in today’s lesson I want to expand on the concept of “trading from anywhere” and why it truly pays to make trading something you are “doing on the side” or “in addition to” other revenue streams, rather than put ALL of your hopes and dreams into it.

How Risk Management Will Save Your Trading Account

Nial Fuller — Wed, 29 May 2019 07:06:19 +0000

You’ve probably heard that something like 90 to 95% of people who trade money in the markets or “speculate” in the markets, end up failing over the long-run. Whilst there can be a multitude of reasons for this mass failure, the primary one that underlies all the other ones is typically poor or no risk management skills. Often, traders don’t even understand risk management and just how important and powerful it is.

This Is How Millionaire Traders Think & Act

Nial Fuller — Wed, 15 May 2019 10:01:55 +0000

Aspiring traders should follow and mimic the mental traits, attitude, belief systems and trading processes of those successful traders and investors that have walked before them. This seems obvious and sounds relatively easy perhaps, but there’s a reason why so few people actually achieve trading success. You need some insight and help with what you need to actually change and do, if you want to start making money in the markets..

To Be In Control Of Your Trading, Stop Trying To Control The Market

Nial Fuller — Thu, 02 May 2019 05:49:31 +0000

Self-control is often the determining factor in trading success, relationship success and life in general. Every good relationship book will tell you the only thing you can control is yourself. What other people do, how they act or think, is not in our control, no matter how it may seem. By working on ourselves, we can learn, adapt and succeed in relationships of all kinds, but first we need to let go, and be at peace with what we can't control. This applies to trading exactly the same way.

To Be In The Top 5% Of Traders, Do What The Bottom 95% Won’t

Nial Fuller — Thu, 18 Apr 2019 09:43:36 +0000

Most traders end up losing, just like most people end up staying middle to low-class, economically speaking. The reasons why are very, very, very similar for the most part. When you exclude variables that really aren’t fair, like being born in an economically depressed part of the world or being born with a severe physical or mental handicap, the primary reasons why 95% of people fail at things like trading and business and wealth-creation, are pretty much the same across the board.

Stop Overthinking & Start Trading

Nial Fuller — Fri, 05 Apr 2019 09:58:50 +0000

Thinking too much. It’s truly a form of mental ‘poison’ that if left unchecked, can consume you and drastically alter your thinking, behavior and even your personality. Needless to say, this negative habit can have disastrous consequences in any area of life: work, personal (relationships), school and especially in trading.

Why The Quality Of Your Trades Matters Far More Than The Quantity

Nial Fuller — Fri, 15 Mar 2019 06:35:46 +0000

Most traders simply want to trade. They fear missing out on the next big move and they forget that the market is still going to be there tomorrow and the next day and 10, 20, 50 years into the future. Everything in the market repeats and that means there will be another opportunity right around the corner, so stop worrying.

Should A Trader Measure Profits In Percentages, Pips Or Risk/Reward (R)?

Nial Fuller — Mon, 11 Feb 2019 13:00:13 +0000

Today’s article is about a seemingly obvious concept; how to measure trading profits. Yet, most traders start out measuring their profit (and loss) totally wrong, but it’s really not their fault. Conventional thinking and what is typically spread on the internet or recommended by brokers and even in many books, just isn’t how actual professional traders think about measuring trading performance or managing risk (they go hand-in-hand).

This article is going to discuss how and why you should narrow your focus in trading, so that you are eliminating variables and truly perfecting your craft. The people who make the most money in this world all have one thing in common: they are VERY GOOD at a small amount of things or even just one thing. Ever heard the saying “Jack of all trades, master of none”? Think about that for a minute because it’s true and especially so in trading. The consequences for not becoming a “master” of your trading strategy are severe, whereas in other professions that may not be so.

What I Wish I Knew About Trading 18 Years Ago

Why I’m Not A Day Trader

Nial Fuller — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 07:59:26 +0000

Like most traders, I was obsessed with day trading at the start of my career, it's what I studied, it's how I traded, it was how I lived. However, I quickly discovered that something was wrong. I just couldn’t seem to make any money trading this way. It was stressful, time-consuming, difficult and even maddening at times. I would make money on a trade and then give it right back. It seemed like I would take one step forward and then two steps back.

The Top 10 Lessons I’ve Learned in 18 Years of Trading

As I grow older, I feel a deeper and deeper desire to give back and to help younger traders and those who are new to the game. Trading can be a very deceiving profession and if you do not spend the time to learn from those who have already been around the ‘block’ a few times, you’re going to waste a lot of time and money. I sat down at a coffee shop whilst writing this and I had a very long think about the most important lessons I have learned in 18 years of trading the markets.

Why Two Different Traders Can See The Same Chart Very Differently

A curious fact of trading is that you can take two different traders and give them the exact same charts and even the same trading pattern, and you will end up with very different results. With everything else being equal like knowledge, trading experience and access to information, why do two different traders behave so differently when they are looking at the exact same market data?

10 Trading Affirmations to Begin Every Trading Day

How can you attain something you are striving for if you do not possess the proper mindset to achieve it? One thing I have learned through the years in my trading and business ventures is that if you want to become successful, you must control the narrative in your mind. If you constantly focus on the negative and let the those negative thoughts and fears control your thoughts, you are going to go nowhere, fast. I would not have achieved the success that I have in trading, business or in my personal life, if I was not consciously working to control the focus of my mind.

Why Professional Traders Make Money & You Don’t

The typical day in the life of a pro trader is probably very different from yours. From what they think about to what they do, there’s a lot you can learn from the daily habits of a professional. The novice trader is racing to look at the charts, desperate to find a trade, whereas the professional is calmly going about his or her routine because he knows there’s no rush. The novice trader is constantly thinking about the live trades they have on, whereas the professional trusts the process and the trading plan so there is no need for them to worry.

How to Not Lose Your ‘Shirt’ Trading
