This is a YouTube video titled "Why Your Emotions Might Be Your Worst Trading Strategy" containing a monologue or personal reflection on the challenges of emotional trading and the impact of poor initial training on trading discipline and mindset. The speaker discusses how practicing emotional trading shaped their beliefs and behaviors in the market.
I was practicing emotional trading. But see, it doesn't take all that long of doing that because I didn't get a good, good training to start with before I went started trading with real money. That's what got wired into me and that's what became normal. That's what I believe. This is what trading is like. This is what trading is all about. And so yeah, man, I'm just trading like crap. If I can just be more disciplined, if I could just stick to what I know I'm supposed to do and control my emotions and all that kind of stuff. And it's like, no, because I had been practicing so many wrong things. That's what got wired into my head as far as interpreting what I saw and what I believed about the markets and what again, what seemed normal and the response patterns that I was reinforcing because I was practicing emotional trading and all this kind of stuff.
