NLP for Stock Traders - The Psychology of successful trades

In this video we will look at why we need to take control of our psychology. The mind has the conscious and subconscious elements that we are all aware of. Except we are not aware for the most part how the subconscious mind affects our outcomes, and in many cases sabotages them. We will also review the elements of successful trading.

Yes in this video we will learn the art of keeping it simple and why it matters. And we will look at how to create simple strategies which are essential to keeping control of our emotions.

In this video we go deeper into strategies, looking at strategies for the three trading steps, Fundamentals, technical set ups and entry and exit management. We also look at specific strategies for sentiment conditions and finally individual asset strategies. We will also consider how to deal with losses.

In this video we look at the need for discipline and clarity which can help control emotions. The next important step is one of awareness. We will look at NLP. NLP stands for Neuro Linguistic Programming. Put simply it is a way of becoming aware and reprogramming our subconscious mind to support our goals and desired outcomes.

Now its time to explore further the realms of the unconscious mind. In this part of the course, we are going to take a look at how the brain works, we will look at the roles played by the conscious and the subconscious but first how we relate to patterns and how that can help us as traders.

We have just looked at the possibility of visualization which we will learn in this course how to do effectively and we understood how we are driven by pleasure and pain. In this video we explain some of the definitions… because the implications run deep and wide. And we will find out a truly mind-blowing fact that will simply change the way you look at life forever

We are ready to explore the unconscious mind a little further. In this video, we look at our 5 senses:

Everything you receive through your senses, everything you see, hear taste, touch and smell is filtered by the conscious mind and then the unconscious mind creates an internal representation and stores it. That is absolutely everything since you were born.

The goal in becoming aware of those representations is to change the ones that do not support you.

So far we have looked at the massive unused potential of the unconscious mind. In this video we are going a bit deeper Suppose we could design a life or a specific outcome and know without doubt that it would come about? The principles of success we are about to consider here can do just that, but it’s not about their potential that matters to you but how they are utilized. If we put them to work for us in a precise way, then they will be motivating inspiring and powerful with results that can be achieved confidently and quickly.

In this video we consider more principles for success, taking action and self-awareness.

The last 2 principles for a successful outcome: flexibility and excellence…in this video how to ‘be’ our successful self.

In this part of the course, we are going to apply the principles we have learnt about how the unconscious mind works to learn how to set any goals using a repeatable formula. S.M.A.R.T is an acronym, and in this video we will dig into specific and measurable goals.

Now its time to look at A. and R., Action based goals and how we have to be realistic.

In this video we look at the last part of the S.M.A.R.T. process which concerns setting the time frame, We look at why this is important in the context of the subconscious mind.

In this video we look at aligning behaviours beliefs and values

When we start becoming more aware we start to realize discrepancies. We may believe something positive and yet we catch ourselves saying the exact opposite. You see, we can reprogram to our hearts content but if the conscious and unconscious mind are not aligned or in harmony with each other, nothing will change. We are going to look at the list of trading behaviours that sabotage our efforts to become successful traders.

In this video we learn what anchoring is in the world of NLP and how we can use this to support our state of mind.

We go further into anchoring techniques and explore ways we can learn this tool by ourselves.

In this video you will learn how to create a resource anchor: the resource anchor is created by visiting various recalled experiences and anchoring them together. For example, you could have one anchor that includes confidence, motivation, joy and excitement.

In this video we will look further into beliefs and see how our 5 senses are working for us.

You will recall that the 5 senses take in all the information around us…the millions of bits of them all delivered to the subconscious mind which then sends our conscious mind the tiny fraction that it can deal with. This, I might add is a scientific statement not speculation. It should certainly put our egos in their places!

In this video we look at how to use journaling to support our subconscious mind. Journaling is something most traders are very disciplined about. Journal with pen and paper is it requires specific energy and you see your unique self in your handwriting that is lost on the computer keyboard. This is not just about journaling trades but ideas and inspirations.

We have seen how valuable it is to install positive habits…the subconscious mind will be as efficient in positive behaviours as it is with negative behaviours and we know now we can choose. Honesty is key and so is an open mind.

In this video we look at meditation. Stilling our conscious mind is important…knowing that we are deleting and distorting the cosmic intelligence should make obvious the need to quiet that part of the mind. That’s where meditation comes in. It’s the art of stilling thoughts and the art of allowing.
