I was feeling that money should be working; not sitting still in my account. So, I’m trying to put every dollar possible to work.
However, my trading rules have been more blurred lately.
And this is what has brought me to the recent realization that maybe I should try the “sniper” approach as opposed to the “shotgun”.
It makes me anxious to just think about how much less trading that could mean. But, I have to think how much more efficient that could be—money and time wise.
You’re not saying what I should or should not do, you’re just talking about your experience. But, I think I’m having very similar experiences to what you’ve had.
And even what Mark Douglas has talked about it in the Disciplined Trader. It’s just a matter of following your trading plan—mechanically.
And while trader psychology may not be the holy grail, it’s certainly a step in the right direction for me.
