The Mental Game of Trading: Coming Soon!

by

Exciting times. After three years of working on this project, I’m getting close to the finish line. A release date not set yet, but aiming to have it out before the end of Q1.

This book is for traders who are losing money because of errors caused by greed, fear, anger, confidence, and discipline. You’ll gain a new understanding of those problems and learn a system to solve them once and for all.

This book will be unlike any other trading psychology book or resource on the market. If you’d like to be notified when the book is available, add your email address here:




Making Sure My Next Book Helps You

by

I’m excited to announce I’m writing a new book. I’m switching it up this time, however, and it’s not about poker – it’s The Mental Game of Trading.

Sorry to disappoint fans of The Mental Game of Poker books who were hoping for The Mental Game of Poker 3. But I do think some of you will enjoy the trading book because it will incorporate material I’ve been developing over the last five years to increase the speed and ease of solving even the toughest mental game problems.

For The Mental Game of Trading to be as hard-hitting as the poker books have been, I need your help.

The Ask: If you’re a trader, please take five minutes to complete this survey. If you’re not, please forward it on to any traders you know who might be willing to fill it out.

The Benefit: Not only will your feedback help the book address the problems that are holding you back, I’m also offering a free webinar in February 2019 for anyone who completes the survey.

The Why: My first two books, The Mental Game of Poker 1 and 2, were successful because I had the unique opportunity to interact with thousands of poker players beyond my 1:1 clients through forum posts, online Q&A’s, and coaching videos. This allowed me to make sure that I was crafting my books in a way that fit what poker players needed and spoke their language. Like the poker books, The Mental Game of Trading will provide traders with a roadmap to identify and correct the most common, and often pervasive, mental game issues. For maximum impact I need to make sure the examples and language really resonate.

Beyond my personal work with individual traders and institutional clients, the attached survey is part of a targeted research effort to ensure the book is as tailored as possible to the concerns and lingo of the broad trading community. The more traders who are willing to share their perspectives, the better I will be at using language and examples that resonate with you.

Please be sure to take the survey by January 31st so I can get cranking on the book and so you can participate in the seminar.




BIG BIG NEWS: Brand new free poker book

by

I’m really excited to announce that in partnership with 888 Poker, I’ve released a 15 chapter blog series/mini mental game book. The material is all brand new, so if you’re a fan of The Mental Game of Poker 1 & 2 there’s a lot here for you.

The content builds upon and simplifies areas of the mental game that I’ve talked about before. Plus, there’s a video for each chapter where I go deeper into each topic, so it’s even easier to improve.

And if you’re not very familiar with my books or the mental game this is a great introduction. I really worked hard to make it valuable for you.

In the series/book I cover a range of topics, for example “why you make bad decisions”, “how to cure your addiction to soul reads”, “why you shouldn’t trust your gut”, and “how to end the endless distractions.” I also have a chapter specifically on the one thing I would change about The Mental Game of Poker. Here’s a link to check the whole thing out. Let me know what you think:

If you are yet to read my books, don’t forget you can get them for free on audiobook here. Poker players in particular have found it helpful to listen to them while they play.

Now is a great time to work on your 2019 goals

by

I’m often in high demand at the start of a new year, when ambition and inspiration is high. But I’ve learned over the years working with top performers of all stripes that New Years is not the optimal time to start setting big annual goals. You have too much enthusiasm which can cloud your judgment, set your sights too high, and inevitably when the first obstacle arrives the plan can get derailed. You need a more measured and realistic (but still ambitious) approach.

Rather than waiting until January 2nd, 2019, why not start thinking about what you want to achieve next year, now? Now is a great time to start making, and adjusting, those big 2019 goals with a cool head and plenty of time to really decide what you want to get out of next year. You’ll have breathing room to really plan out what you want to do, rather than rush it all out in January.

It might even help you close out whatever goals you currently have for the rest of this year. Having something to look forward to, as well as a way of taking stock on how this year has gone, might be that spark of inspiration you need to steady the ship for the next few months.

If you’ve had a productive/successful year it’s easy to start sliding by saying to yourself that you’ll start working hard again next year. But what you do now, can actually help make next year a level better. Or perhaps your 2018 goals are not going to happen. Start thinking about how you can set yourself up for a better 2019 now, and still make the rest of this year more productive.

I have some big things in the pipeline and have struggled managing all of it, when my client work has never been busier. It’s a juggling act that I’m going to work harder on the rest of this year, see what I can learn and find a way to make 2019 an even better year.
