rxs,

There are few books/articles addressed this particular topic.

I have posted a list of books/articles somewhere, but can't remember the site/URL.

Check out Dr. Ned Gandevani's book
"How to Become A Successful Trader" ..
There is a chapter dedicated to the topic.

Another good article in SFO magazine (few years ago)
titled "Why Can't I pull Trigger'....

Also, here is an excellent article by Price Headley
Conquer The 4 Fears Of Trading

Good Luck!

Regards,
Suri

Gents and ladies

thanks for the all the genuine advice i did go in today this is what happened :

my strategy triggered a open position

i got in ( using small position )

immediately I felt that i was wrong ! ( i did not fear about losing money but being wrong )

went into cancel the order too late!

next thing i know i am in the GREEN !!

used my exit strategy and got out about right and made money

Lesson learnt :

Beleif in your system
focus on the probability of success on the strategy

and most important of all

Just do it !

its only money not my life

thanks y'all for the support and trust me i am using u r advice and executing it

one other thing i found very helpful is

after all the news and nosie is baked in i limit my input only to my quote streamer and charts no CNBC no other external outputs just razor focus on my strategy

No offence FX girl intended - but I just had a laugh at reading this as my girlfriend and I just watched a comedy show about the difference between men and women.

Most of the blokes said just do it, you had a lot of writing about dialogue, talking etc.

All the same thing in the end result.....except most guys are are bit more blunt.
well done rxs

No offense taken, DugDug. Men and women are different - in plenty of ways. However, if "just do it", doesn't result in just doing it, follow the steps above.

IMHO you were spot on. In trading we must learn to embrace things that, in almost all other professions, we try at all costs to avoid. You could even say we are programmed to avoid them: losing money and being wrong.

DugDug, Could you share the name of that program with us ? I am very interested in this topic and I love reading the books of Alen and Barbra Pease about this.

the show was a comedy talk show in the UK called IQ - I think it was a repeat - it was not a serious documentary

I would highly suggest learning to play microstakes online poker...especially if you have issues with having to be right.
It gives you cheap practice with everything being setup perfectly, going for it but still losing even though you made the correct play. Lost money on the hand but it was the correct play when viewed over a series of correct plays.
Also cheap practice for the opposite of having nothing, should be folding, but instead having to be right and getting smacked.
