GRATIFYING WEEK AHEAD?


FROM AN EXPERIENCE

1. THE TRADING PLAN
Trying to win in the markets without a trading plan is like trying to 
build a house without blueprints-costly (and avoidable) mistakes are 
virtually inevitable. A trading plan simply requires combining a 
per-sonal trading method with specific money management and 
trade entry rules. Krausz considers the absence of a trading plan the 
root of all the principal difficulties traders encounter in the markets. 
Driehaus stresses that a trading plan should reflect a personal core 
philosophy. He explains that without a core philosophy, you are not 
going to be able to hold on to your positions or stick with your 
trading plan during really difficult times.

2. DISCIPLINE
Discipline was probably the most frequent word used by the 
exceptional traders that I interviewed. Often, it was mentioned 
in an almost apologetic tone: 
“I know you've heard this a million times before, but believe me, 
it’s really important.”
There are two basic reasons why discipline is critical. 
First, it is a prerequisite for maintaining effective risk control. 
Second, you need discipline to apply your method without 
second-guessing and choosing which trades to take. I guarantee 
that you will almost always pick the wrong ones. 
Why? Because you will tend to pick the comfortable trades, 
and as Eckhardt explained, “What feels good is often the wrong 
thing to do.” As a final word on this subject, remember that you 
are never immune to bad trading habits-the best you can do is to
keep them latent. As soon as you get lazy or sloppy, they will 
return.

3. UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE
Whether you win or lose, you are responsible for your own results. 
Even if you lost on your broker’s tip, an advisory service 
recommenda-tion, or a bad signal from the system you bought, 
you are responsible because you made the decision to listen and act. 
I have never met a suc-cessful trader who blamed others for his 
losses.

4. THE NEED FOR INDEPENDENCE
You need to do your own thinking. Don’t get caught up in mass 
hysteria. As Ed Seykota pointed out, by the time a story is making 
the cover of the national periodicals, the trend is probably near an 
end. Independence also means making your own trading decisions. 
Never listen to other opinions. Even if it occasionally helps on a 
trade or two, listening to others invariably seems to end up costing 
you money-not to mention confusing your own market view. 
As Michael Marcus stated in Market Wizards, “You need to follow 
your own light. If you combine two traders, you will get the worst 
of each.”

A related personal anecdote concerns another trader I interviewed in
 Market Wizards. Although he could trade better than I if he were 
blindfolded and placed in a trunk at the bottom of a pool, he still was 
interested in my view of the markets. One day he called and asked, 
“What do you think of the yen?” The yen was one of the few 
markets about which I had a strong opinion at the time. It had 
formed a particular chart pattern that made me very bearish. 
“I think the yen is going straight down, and I’m short,” I replied.

He preceded to give me fifty-one reasons why the yen was 
oversold and due for a rally. After he hung up, I thought: 
“I’m leaving on a busi-ness trip tomorrow. My trading has 
not been going very well during the last few weeks. 
The short yen trade is one of the only positions in my account. 
Do I really want to fade one of the world’s best traders given 
these considerations?” I decided to close out the trade.
By the time I returned from my trip several days later, the yen 
had fallen 150 points. As luck would have it, that afternoon the 
same trader called. When the conversation rolled around to the 
yen, I couldn’t resist asking, 
“By the way, are you still long the yen?” “Oh no,” he replied, 
“I’m short.”

The point is not that this trader was trying to mislead me. 
On the contrary, he firmly believed each market opinion at the time 
he expressed it. However, his timing was good enough so that he 
probably made money on both sides of the trade. In contrast, 
I ended up with nothing, even though I had the original move 
pegged exactly right. The moral is that even advice from a much 
better trader can lead to detri-mental results.

5. CONFIDENCE
An unwavering confidence in their ability to continue to win in the 
markets was a nearly universal characteristic among the traders I 
inter-viewed. Dr. Van Tharp, a psychologist who has done a great 
deal of research on traders and was interviewed in Market Wizards, 
claims that one of the basic traits of winning traders is that they 
believe “they’ve won the game before the start.”

6. LOSING IS PART OF THE GAME
The great traders fully realize that losing is an intrinsic element in the
 game of trading. This attitude seems linked to confidence. Because 
exceptional traders are confident that they will win over the long run,
 individual losing trades no longer seem horrible; they simply appear
 inevitable-which is what they are. As Linda Raschke explained, 
“It never bothered me to lose, because I always knew that I would 
make it right back.”

There is no more certain recipe for losing than having a fear of 
losing. If you can’t stand taking losses, you will either end up 
taking large losses or missing great trading opportunities-either flaw 
is sufficient to sink any chance for success.

7. LACK OF CONFIDENCE AND TIME-OUTS
Trade only when you feel confident and optimistic. I have often 
heard traders say: “I just can’t seem to do anything right.” Or, 
“I bet I get stopped out right near the low again.” If you find yourself
 thinking in such negative terms, it is a sure sign that it is time to 
take a break from trading. Get back into trading slowly. 
Think of trading as a cold ocean. Test the water before plunging in.

8. THE URGE TO SEEK ADVICE
The urge to seek advice betrays a lack of confidence. As Linda 
Raschke said, “If you ever find yourself tempted to seek out 
someone else’s opinion on a trade, that’s usually a sure sign that 
you should get out of your position.”

9. THE VIRTUE OF PATIENCE
Waiting for the right opportunity increases the probability of success.
 You don’t always have to be in the market. As Edwin Lefevre put it
 in his classic Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, “There is the plain 
fool who does the wrong thing at all times anywhere, but there is the
Wall Street fool who thinks he must trade all the time.”
One of the more colorful descriptions of patience in trading was 
offered by Jim Rogers in Market Wizards: “I just wait until there is 
money lying in the comer, and all I have to do is go over there and 
pick it up.” In other words, until he is so sure of a trade that it seems 
as easy as picking money off the floor, he does nothing.

Mark Weinstein (also interviewed in Market Wizards) provided the 
following apt analogy: “Although the cheetah is the fastest animal in 
the world and can catch any animal on the plains, it will wait until it 
is absolutely sure it can catch its prey. It may hide in the bush for a 
week, waiting for Just the right moment. It will wait for a baby 
antelope, and not Just any baby antelope, but preferably one that is
also sick or lame. Only then, when there is no chance it can lose its 
prey, does it attack. That, to me, is the epitome of professional 
trading.”
As a final bit of advice on the subject of patience, guard particularly 
against being overeager to trade in order to win back prior losses. 
Vengeance trading is a sure recipe for failure.

10. THE IMPORTANCE OF SITTING
Patience is important not only in waiting for the right trades, but also
 in staying with trades that are working. The failure to adequately 
profit from correct trades is a key profit-limiting factor. Quoting 
again from Lefevre in Reminiscences, “It never was my thinking 
that made big money for me. It was always my sitting. Got that? 
My sitting tight!” Also, recall Eckhardt’s comment on the subject: 
“One common adage … that is completely wrongheaded is: 
You can’t go broke taking profits. That’s precisely how many 
traders do go broke. While amateurs go broke by taking large losses, 
professionals go broke by taking small profits.”

                               TRADERS MINDSET

“Many traders start out using a state of mind that focuses on 
“having.” Rather than focus on how to trade in concert with the 
markets, they are obsessed with profits, and what they can purchase 
with those profits.”

“The main goal is to make money, money that can be used to 
purchase objects of desire, such as a shiny red sports car, a spacious, 
luxurious home, or a large wardrobe of fine clothes. They believe 
that great financial success will be the solution to all their problems. 
Trading isn’t just a job; it’s their salvation. Although many traders 
are motivated by money, there’s a downside to focusing on what you 
can have as a result of your profits. When traders focus solely on 
accumulating wealth, on “having,” they tend to act greedy and may 
take risks in an effort to win. There is a blind and unrealistic focus 
on trading at a high level of performance. Unless they trade at a high 
level of performance, they can’t possibly “have” what they desire. 
But a novice trader can’t achieve a high level of performance, 
and so, there is a mismatch between skills and goals. Traders in a 
“having” state of mind often feel frustrated that their trading efforts 
fall short of their expectations. And when they feel frustrated, 
they have difficulty concentrating on their ongoing experience. 
They tend to make trading errors, which intensify their feelings of 
anger and frustration. In addition, they are tempted to give up easily 
and avoid putting in their best effort. They tend to think, 
“Why should l even try? I’ll never achieve the level of success I 
desire.” At some point, a trader’s state of mind moves from 
“having” to “doing.” In a “doing” state of mind, a trader focuses on
 learning trading methods, and on when these methods work and when they don’t. According to Dr. Tharp, however, traders in the “doing” state of mind still tend to focus on performance issues. They ask the question, “What can this trading method do for me?” They are concerned with how the method can make them rich. Rather than become engaged with the markets, trading in the “doing” state of mind is about evaluating the method, wondering if it is “working.” Trading, however, is not a simple matter of choosing a particular method and arbitrarily applying it. Becoming a winning trader requires honing your trading skills. It is vital that you develop your intuition by trading with a variety of methods under a wide range of market conditions, and finding ways that the proper method dovetails with optimal market conditions. Although it doesn’t tend to lead to enduring profitability, trading in a “doing” state of mind is a vital step on the way to mastery of the markets. During this stage, you gain the experience you need to trade intuitively and in a peak performance mindset. The ultimate state of mind for profitable trading is the “being” state of mind. Rather than focusing on outcomes, a trader in the “being” state of mind is fully in tune with the markets. He or she trades in synchrony with the market action. A firm commitment is made to trading the market and accepting it on its own terms. When a trader works to trade in the moment, he or she intuitively sees profitable setups and effortlessly trades them. It may not happen over night, but with enough practice and experience, you can trade with a “being” state of mind.




CHINA'S INFLATION SOARED













China’s inflation escalated to the highest level in three years amid 
lingering pressure, with the consumer price index (CPI), the main gauge of inflation, jumping 6.4 percent year-on-year in June, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Saturday.
The June inflation rate accelerated 0.9 percentage points from May’s 5.5 percent which stood at a 34-month high, both far exceeding the government’s annual inflation control target of 4 percent.
Of the 6.4-percent CPI growth in June, 3.7 percentage points were contributed by the carryover effect of price increases last year, the NBS said in a statement on its website.
“We don’t have to panic about the June CPI figure,” said Zhang Liqun, a macroeconomic analyst with the State Council Development Research Center, China’s top government think-tank.
“A CPI growth above 6 percent doesn’t mean the inflation situation is worsening in China, because 3.7 percentage points of the increase were contributed by the carryover effect,” Zhang said.
He said the carryover effect had peaked in June and new factors that push up prices have been under the government’s control, adding that the supplies of food are improving, except pork, and will help ease inflation pressure.
Food prices, which account for nearly one third of the basket of goods in the nation’s CPI calculation, continued to rise 14.4 percent in June from the same month last year, a pace faster than May’s 11.7 percent.
Growth in non-food prices also accelerated to 3 percent in June, up from a year-on-year increase of 2.9 percent in May.
In terms of regions, the CPI rose 6.2 percent year-on-year in China’s urban areas, and the growth in the rural areas was 7.0 percent, according to the NBS.
On a month-on-month basis, food prices added 0.9 percent from May, with the pork prices jumping 11.4 percent from previous month. Month-on-month price declines were reported in vegetables and fruits. Non-food prices were flat in June as compared with May.
Calling the June CPI figure “within the market’s expectation,” Zuo Xiaolei, chief economist for the Galaxy Securities, said the inflation rate would remain high in the future because “it takes a while to release the inflation pressure gradually.”
Zuo said under such great inflationary pressure, she foresees no change in the country’s monetary policy, which will be kept in a reasonable range to maintain a steady economic growth.
To cool down soaring prices, the People’s Bank of China (PBOC), the central bank, has so far raised the benchmark interest rates three times this year, including a latest rate hike of 25 basis points announced just three days ahead of the release of the June CPI data.
The central bank also raised the reserve requirement ratio six times in the first half of 2011, ordering banks to keep a record high of 21.5 percent of their deposits in reserve to rein in excess lending.
Professor Cao Fengqi, director of the Research Center for Finance & Securities of the Peking University, said the CPI growth this year peaked in June.
Cao said adjustment of monetary policy is likely, at least the central bank will stop raising interest rates frequently.
Liu Shucheng, a senior economic research fellow with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said China has had an inflation rate around 6 percent many times in the past.
According to the NBS data, China has seen a monthly CPI growth above 6 percent eight times since 2007.
“Our country has experience to battle an inflation rate around 6 percent, but of course we should manage inflation, particularly the inflationary expectation,” Liu said.
Regarding the outlook of inflation, Liu expects CPI growth to weaken starting July due to the government’s anti-inflation measures, tighter liquidity in the market and falling commodity prices in global market.
