Well through synapses your brain will know if it's a winning or losing trade, it's basically creating a memory. That's really what it boils down to, think of it as walking I guess. You do it over and over and eventually you learn what works and what doesn't work, so your brain focuses on doing what works (your brain wouldn't teach you how to walk where you fall down every step). Granted your trades don't work 100% of the time, but you get my drift.

I hope that's clear, it's been a while since I've read up on this but that's kind of how I see it. If I'm way off then I apologize.

You can dig very deep into this subject, and it would get very interesting. For some reason when I think of this it reminds of me the movie What the Bleep do We know (down the rabbit hole). Once I start thinking like that my mind just gets scattered and I can't possibly put it all to words in an organized fashion. But if you have seen the movie you might be able to understand why I think the two could be related.
