Any book recommendations on trading psychology?

I am in search of some books related to the psychology of trading. I was wondering if anyone can recommend any titles.

I read some of Ari Kiev's books but did not find what I was looking for. Any advice would do. Thank you

Try "Trading in the Zone" by Mark Douglas. He also has another excellent book on trading psychology called "The Disciplined Trader". I have read Ari Kiev's, "The Psychology of Risk" but found Mark Douglas' book to be better.

Here's another good book.



The Psychology of Trading - Brett N. Steenbarger

Actually one of my favorites. It has a different approach to explaining trading psychology.

Another book I recommend is:



Exceptional Trading - Ruth B. Roosevelt

Recommended by a trading buddy 6 years ago. Worth checking out. She has another easy to read book.



12 Habitudes of Highly Successful Traders - Ruth B. Roosevelt

I own both these books as well.
