Build Trader Confidence & Minimize Fear
$299.00
Fear is probably the most significant emotion for traders. Many traders struggle with this emotion and fear can demobilize you from applying your hard learned technical skills. Significant trading losses often lead to emotional distress and turmoil. Unless addressed, the trader may re-experience those painful memories in future trades. Following anguishing losses, a trader may become paralyzed and unable to enter the trade or act in other fear-based ways. After all, traders are human and naturally fear that which causes pain. Although the desire to trade may be strong, the mental response to fear can be stronger. Anticipated pain is sidestepped by not pulling the trigger. This is not a sign of weakness. It is merely the mind’s attempt at self-protection, though it causes much frustration and distress, and works against our interests as traders.
When suffering from fear, you may
- Cut winners short in fear of giving profits back
- Hesitate in pulling the trigger because you fear the prospects of a loss
- Hang on to losing trades because you fear taking the loss
- Jump into unplanned trades because you fear leaving money on the table
Have you ever questioned why it is so difficult to trade even when you have solid technical skills?

Dr. Gary has gone into details on specific techniques designed for traders for you to use to address fear in your trading. The webinar recording comes with a workbook of these techniques and exercises you can use to overcome fear.
As some of you may have already experienced, after significant losses, our trading psychology can get in the way of trading, even if we have improved our technical trading edge. Many traders stop trading and never return. Others work hard to understand and correct the flaws in their technical game, only to find that none of the techniques they learned would help them overcome fear. To be successful, traders need to manage both the technical game and the emotional side of trading.

“I received my Building Trader Confidence (Overcome Fear) yesterday- listened to the whole thing. I was amazed when you used the word STUCK in the class. That is EXACTLY how I have been feeling- Stuck… Then you said- Stuck not Broken- awesome. It is like you were talking to me personally. I hope you don’t mind me sharing my first day of trading since I received your program-
1) I waited for my set up; took about an hour but then I actually took it; did not just watch it go by and wish I had taken it (as usual). Perfect entry.
2) SUD rating: 8… but, I actually pulled the trigger so I was proud!
3) Then with my mind racing I got out at 1 tick instead of my target and, of course, it went exactly where I thought it would (as usual).
This was the best trade I ever took- why?- I realized that because of my fear I was actually HOLDING MY BREATH though the whole 45 second process, sheesh! No mindfullness, here. But, now I understand what is going on and I did not call myself an idiot or stupid, etc.
I have such a clear plan of where I am going now. I will stay with the same set up until I can get it to a SUD of 1-3 and actually complete the entire trade according to my plan… and then I can go to the next phase in my plan.
In the last 4 years of trading I have cried at my computer more than once in frustration. Today, I cry tears of joy and have an additional $6.50 in my account. Life is good”.

“… I have noticed a change in my behavior after attending your lecture in terms of pulling the trigger. I am acting automatically and not worrying about the result. I feel detached and very little stress. I am not sure how this happened but I am happy with the result.”
“If you understand the dynamics of emotions which drive your actions in the market, you can put them in their proper perspective. Your webinar gives insight about proper perspective. I used the material the next day to place a major position in the market for my client accounts. I bought a share in an acculumation where news flows were negative. The share failed to go down on extremely bad news and in fact went up marginally. I was a bit afraid to place the trade but the facts spoke otherwise so I did it anyway… I would highly recommend this webinar to other investors/traders because without understanding of emotions and how they affect your actions, you will be a loser no matter how much your know about technical analysis/Wyckoff or fundamental analysis.”
