Bruce Lee Interview, Be Like Water.

In trading, it is important to trade in the zone and stay in the zone, just like you would in an athletic event or in high performance arts. Hitting the zone and staying in the zone is of utmost importance to maximize performance during trading as Dr. Brett would call the “Yoda State”. Very fitting for this site since Andy “Happy” worked on Star Wars I with George Lucas.
Be like water, make your mind as clear as water during trading. Focus on the NOW. It is the gradual focusing of attention on the opportunities for action in one’s environment, which results in a perfection of skills that with time becomes so thoroughly automatic, it is the incremental honing of challenges and skills. This takes practice and time, it is not easy but very possible to accomplish.
Right now, I am reading several books at the same time, one book of utmost importance to this subject is “Trading In the Zone: Maximizing Performance With Focus and Discipline” by World Renowned Trading Coach Ari Kiev. Kiev teaches you how to get into the zone and stay in the zone. Here are some excerpts from his book, please buy it if you are encountering trouble right now with a “trading block” or difficulty with attaining this high mental acuity.

Chapter 1: Defining the Zone

Happy Reading and enjoy your weekend!
