Review Your Feelings Shortly After Entering a Trade<\/h2>\n<p>If you open a trade and don't look at it until it hits the profit target or stop loss, then you could be missing out on a valuable piece of information.<\/p>\n<p><strong>That piece of information is your intuition.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some traders have good intuition, others not so good. So figure out what works best for you.<\/p>\n<p>Record your thoughts in your trading journal a few minutes after entering it. Do you feel as confident about it as when you took the trade?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don't act on this information in the beginning.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>But over time, you might start to see some patterns emerging.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Maybe your intuition about a trade turns out to be pretty good. If so, then you know that you should usually trust your intuition.<\/p>\n<p>If your intuition tends to be wrong most of the time, then you should probably follow your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/forex-trading-plan-guide\/\">trading plan<\/a> exactly.<\/p>\n<p>This is a subtle element of trading mindfully, but it can help a lot.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Be Aware of Your Attitude Towards Money<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1018714\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/money-fan.jpg\" alt=\"Fan of money\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/money-fan.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/money-fan-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A sneaky roadblock that a lot of people run into is their subconscious aversion to money.<\/p>\n<p>On the outside, they say that they want to fly first class and own an expensive luxury car.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But deep down&#8230;society, their parents and their peers have drilled into them that money is bad.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Movies usually portray rich people as greedy.<\/li>\n<li>Some spiritual leaders tell their followers that money is: &#8220;the root of all evil.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Parents tell their kids: &#8220;money doesn't grow on trees.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Co-workers hate the boss who tells them what to do and lives in a beautiful house<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8230;and so on.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this is nonsense.<\/p>\n<p>Money is neither good or bad.<\/p>\n<p>It only magnifies who you really are.<\/p>\n<p>You can use your money to build schools in developing countries. You can use your money to fund inventions that will change the world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So be more mindful of your attitudes towards money. Keep a journal with you and write down your thoughts about money throughout the day.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>You might be surprised at what you discover.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>4. Be Mindful of Reoccurring Themes<\/h2>\n<h3>Life Events<\/h3>\n<p>Are there certain themes that keep popping up in your life?<\/p>\n<p>For example, do you tend to get into a lot of arguments?<\/p>\n<p>Well, that could explain why you have so many losing trades. You may be placing more importance on being right, then being profitable.<\/p>\n<p><em>In effect, you're arguing with the markets.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This is a sign that you should probably listen more in life&#8230;and in trading.<\/p>\n<h3>Your Dreams<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1018713\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sleep-1.jpg\" alt=\"Sleeping trader\" width=\"1200\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sleep-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sleep-1-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Another area that you can find common theme is in your dreams.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellmind.com\/facts-about-dreams-2795938\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Everyone dreams<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em> Not everyone remembers their dreams.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>If you think that you don't dream, you simply aren't making a conscious effort to remember your dreams. Give it an honest try for a couple of weeks and you'll get the hang of it.<\/p>\n<p>You probably won't remember your dreams every night.<\/p>\n<p>But you will remember them a lot more often.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keep a journal by your bed and be ready to record your dreams as soon as you awake.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When I made a serious effort to remember my dreams, I discovered my primary mental roadblock was I believed that most things in my life would not work out.<\/p>\n<p>Wow, imagine how limiting that belief can be!<\/p>\n<p><em>It was amazing how often that theme came up.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Once I knew that, I was able to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/advanced-trading-psychology\/\">explore ways<\/a> to fix it. But if I never had that realization, I might still be stuck in a cycle of self sabotage.<\/p>\n<p>After you master dream recall, you can start to dive into <a href=\"https:\/\/fxjake.com\/blog\/2017\/07\/28\/the-forgotten-traders-tool-how-to-lucid-dream-and-why-you-should-part-2-of-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lucid dreaming<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>That's when the fun really starts \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<h2>5. Maintain an Objective Mindset While Reviewing Trades<\/h2>\n<p>It can be easy to get down on yourself when you're on a losing streak. That's especially true when it comes time to review your trading journal.<\/p>\n<p>Now I'm not saying that it's easy to keep an objective mindset when you are losing.<\/p>\n<p>It can be very challenging.<\/p>\n<p><em>But like with anything else, practice builds the skill.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Start from where you are, do your best&#8230;and go from there.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you're on a losing streak, just opening your trading journal can be painful. The first step to facing your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/recover-after-trading-loss\/\">trading losses<\/a> is to consider the following&#8230;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Even if it was a poor trade, you can learn something from it. What's done is done. Find a way to prevent it next time and move on.<\/li>\n<li>Upon closer review, you may find that you're actually trading quite well, but you simply hit a normal drawdown.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Also ask yourself if you're doing these two things&#8230;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Are you attaching too much of your personal identity to your trading results?<\/strong> If so, you're trading from an ego-centered mindset. Your ego wants to be right. Your ego wants to be the big-swinging-dick trader. This never ends well. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/trading-meditation\/\">Quiet your mind<\/a> and learn to detach yourself from your trading results.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Are you trading with too much risk?<\/strong> If you're losing an uncomfortable amount of money, it's time to scale back or even downshift to a demo account until you can get your performance figured out.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Reviewing your trades is a perfect time to reflect on how you can take your performance to the next level.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Set a time in your calendar to do it regularly.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Final Thoughts on Ways to Trade Mindfully<\/h2>\n<p>So those are 5 ways to upgrade your psychology and trade mindfully.<\/p>\n<p><em>Learning trading strategies is easy.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mastering them is the hard part.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But if you're conscious of every element of your trading process and work to make small improvements every day, those improvements can compound.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;and you know what they say about compounding.<\/p>\n<p><em>What are some ways that you've upgraded your trading mindset.
