Making Decisions Ahead of Time Prevents Under-Pressure Mistakes
For Episode 272 of The Traders Podcast, your host Rob Booker is broadcasting from the happiest place on Earth: Disneyland in Anaheim, California. Rob begins by listing all the things he did not learn while at Disneyland. Then Rob suggests that you don’t learn much about trading from trading. He discusses the contrast between our lack of perspective while in the midst of a learning experience (such as trading), versus the insights that come after having passed through said experience.
Rob also talks about the benefits of making your decisions in advance, in order to avoid confusion when the pressure is on. Rob wraps up this show with some ideas for improving your trading by explaining what he does to keep himself in line.
