Most traders think becoming successful means learning to trust themselves more.

I think that's dangerous advice.

Because the version of you calmly reviewing your trading plan on Sunday is not always the same version of you making decisions after three consecutive losses on Tuesday morning.

Fear changes your decisions.

Confidence changes your decisions.

Losing money changes your decisions.

And making money can change your decisions too.

That's why professional trading isn't about becoming an emotionless, perfectly disciplined machine.

It's about building a process that doesn't REQUIRE you to be one.

In this video, I explain why I've stopped relying on discipline and willpower in my own trading and instead focus on removing unnecessary decisions before I ever put money at risk.

You'll learn:

• Why knowing the rules isn't enough to stop bad trading behaviour
• How emotions cause traders to override perfectly good strategies
• Why I make important trading decisions BEFORE entering the market
• The 7 things every trader should define before trading
• How to create guardrails against revenge trading and overtrading
• Why losing trades can still be good trades
• Why profitable trades can actually be bad trades
• How to judge the quality of your trading decisions objectively
• Why YOU are one of the risks within your trading system
• How professional traders use process instead of relying on willpower

One question I want you to think about:

If you could replay your last trading decision 100 times without knowing the outcome, would you want yourself making the same decision every time?

If yes, it was probably a good trade.

Even if it lost.

If no, it was probably a bad trade.

Even if it made money.

Let me know in the comments: **What's the ONE decision in your trading that causes you the most trouble?**

Risk? Overtrading? Moving stops? Closing winners early? Skipping valid setups?

I'd love to see which one comes up most.
