Yes, I did it - drum roll please! I bought a stock without shaky hands and with a calm heart - not even a flutter. Then, I sold it too fast and lost $40 when I could've stayed in and made $130 when the stock went back up one hour later.
But, I choose to sit in the moment of triumph, the moment that I succeeded today in buying and selling with calm. That is victory. If I can keep repeating that now, of course with some patience before selling, then I may actually get the hang of this and make some money.
Toni Turner is a fabulous coach who talks about how much of trading is psychological and that staying calm and confident is key.
Repeat after me, "Ohm, ohm, I am calm like the water."
