Psychology for Quant Traders? Really?Quantitative futures traders like to think in code, not clichés—but Dr Brett Steenbarger makes a compelling case that mindset is part of the edge. In this interview, Brett argues that the same statistical rigor quants apply to markets should be applied to the grey matter behind the keyboard. Here's a guide for the advanced systematic trader who suspects “psy-stuff” might be more than motivational posters.The punch-line from Brett's research is simple: systematic trading is less “set-and-forget” and more Formula 1 pit-crew—engineering precision plus real-time human performance. Code finds edges; psychology keeps you creative enough to refresh them. Or, as one of Brett's blog posts puts it, “We can't run robust systems from brittle minds.” Not a bad mantra to stick on your trading monitor!#traderpsychology #tradermindset #tradinginthezone

Uno de los libros que más me impactó hace años fue uno de Brett Steenbarger, reconocido psicólogo clínico y trader estadounidense que ha publicado numerosos artículos sobre psicología del trading, debido a su amplio conocimiento del control de las emociones. En ese libro describía que hay que operar en Bolsa del modo que lo haría un francotirador y esto es algo que siempre intento inculcar a todos los suscriptores de Ecotrader y lectores de elEconomista.es, que aprovecho para desearles unas felices fiestas.Piensen que si un francotirador se volviese demasiado agresivo y se aburriese esperando el tiro adecuado, saltaría de su escondite y comenzaría a disparar al enemigo sin ton ni son. La mayoría de tiros se desperdiciarían y el francotirador fuera de control sería rápidamente localizado y acribillado a tiros. Un buen francotirador espera al disparo ideal y sus herramientas esenciales son el sigilo, la visualización del entorno y un exquisito auto-control y juicio, que son virtudes que debería tener todo inversor en Bolsa.Desde hace semanas vengo insistiendo que para realizar nuevas compras en renta variable había que ser pacientes y esperar a tener una visión despejada del objetivo, algo que ya está ocurriendo a corto plazo gracias al techo que los principales índices mundiales establecieron en los máximos de hace dos semanas, donde concluyó el alza que nació a mediados de octubre.Análisis estratégico del EuroStoxx 50Tener identificado el origen y el fin de ese movimiento alcista, que en el caso del EuroStoxx 50 lo llevó de los 3.250 a los 4.035 puntos, me permite saber dónde se encuentra el objetivo o zona donde hay que enfocar la mira. En este sentido, lo ideal para obtener una ecuación riesgo/recompensa interesante sería asistir al menos a una corrección entre la mitad y dos terceras partes de esa alza. Les hablo de niveles como son los 3.645 / 3.520 puntos del EuroStoxx 50, que se encuentran a un 5 y 7% de distancia de niveles actuales.Ahí les recomendaría comprar manejando un stop en los 3.400 puntos, cuya cesión haría que aumentara el riesgo bajista de asistir a una caída hacia niveles donde cotizaban las bolsas europeas antes de la aparición en escena de la vacuna de Pfizer, esto es los 2.900/3.100 puntos del EuroStoxx 50, que es una hipótesis que no puedo descartar en la medida que el último rebote no logró batir la resistencia de los 4.050 puntos.Al otro lado del Atlántico todo sigue igual. Después de fracasar el Nasdaq 100 y el S&P 500 en sus respectivas directrices bajistas, que son las que vienen guiando de forma milimétrica las caídas desde noviembre y enero respectivamente, ahora todas las miradas deben estar puestas en el hueco que generaron al alza el pasado 10 de noviembre. El proceso de reconstrucción alcista que nació a mediados de octubre seguirá vivo mientras no se cierren estos huecos, para lo cual deberíamos ver al S&P 500 perder los 3.700/3.750 puntos y el Nasdaq 100 ceder los 10.800 puntos. Esos niveles pueden ser considerados entornos de compra agresivo teniendo claro que si se pierden habría que cerrar esas compras ya que en tal caso me parece que van a pintar bastos en este comienzo de año 2023.

Hosted by Edmund Lee, President & CEO of the Caylum Trading Institute, Short Stops is your weekly stock market update featuring the top trading news, tips and stock picks in Metro Manila and around the world. “You make sacrifices day in and day out to learn and improve, not knowing when success will come but you have to take the short term loss for a longer term gain.” - Tonino Gonzaga We’re not here to talk about trading today - you have been warned. We’re here to delve into the minds of professional athletes and to find out what kind of conditioning it takes to achieve ultimate results. Dr. Brett Steenbarger, himself, wrote an article for Forbes that said, “The development of trading expertise is not so different from the development of elite performance in athletics.” Thus, we’ve brought in our star players, Kyle Dandan and Tonino Gonzaga, two of our graduates from the Caylum Recruitment Program and who are now traders under COL Financial’s Independent Financial Advisory group. So while Kyle and Tonino talk about sports, we’re going to directly translate what they have to say into terms that our professional traders can relate to: 1. It starts with passion. Trading as a career must be voluntary, not forced. You cannot opt to become a professional trader just because it is the current trend, the market is up, or because people say you can make easy cash quick. With that kind of mindset, you will be out of the game within less than a year. 2. Preparation is everything. If you’re not ready physically, mentally and emotionally to trade, you’re never going to win. 3. You need a team, a support system to improve your skills and reach that level of performance. They will hold you accountable and they will look at your trades without bias. 4. Review your tape. We’ve said it time and again - keep a record of your trades, track your profit and loss, measure your statistics. Find your best and worst setups. 5. Ang pikon, talo. Nothing to translate here - ang pikon, talo talaga. 6. Slumps happen. You cannot just give up. Continue to be religious with your routine to improve daily because even if you’re not getting the results that you want now, the process will matter in the long run. 7. Accept your role and tame the ego. The Best Trader, the Superstar, the Champion - these are nothing but titles and labels that do not define the performance of your portfolio. If someone makes a windfall profit and you miss out, or others are particularly stronger when it comes to momentum plays and speculation, that doesn’t make you any less of a trader. The only person you have to compete against is yourself. Get your next trading insight and find your baggers right here on Short Stops.

Financial trading is challenging work, requiring a high degree of focus, discipline, and analytical ability. In this week's episode I spoke with psychologist Dr. Brett Steenbarger, who specializes in the psychology of trading. Brett describes the habits of thought and action—many of them drawn from cognitive behavioral principles—that help traders perform at consistently high levels.
Financial trading is challenging work, requiring a high degree of focus, discipline, and analytical ability. In this week's episode I spoke with psychologist Dr. Brett Steenbarger, who specializes in the psychology of trading. Brett describes the habits of thought and action—many of them drawn from cognitive behavioral principles—that help traders perform at consistently high levels. I learned a lot from our discussion, as someone who's almost entirely naive about the trading world. We explored many topics, including: The difference between trading and investing How traders make money The mental abilities like pattern recognition that make for skillful trading Mental and emotional challenges that traders face The downside of perfectionism and hindsight bias for traders The relevance of CBT principles to dealing with self-talk in trading Treating losses as learning opportunities The problem with assessing one’s personal value based on the ups and downs of trading How traders can prevent burnout The importance of building a highly fulfilling life outside of trading Being “emotionally diversified” for long-term success Buying and selling for non-rational reasons (“Overtrading”) Solution-focused strategies The value of a strength-focused approach to trading Finding flow as a trader How to guard against being over- or under-confident Responding to changing market patterns How investors can stay flexible and adaptable Self-awareness and trading journals The problem with trading in “fight-or-flight” mode Managing excessive fear when trading When a trading problem reflects a bigger life problem The threat that frustration poses to trading, and how to manage it The irrationality of “revenge trading” Developing self-awareness of thoughts and feelings Learning to be one’s own trading coach The value of meditation during the trading day How traders can reduce distractions and increase concentration The effects of fatigue on concentration and performance Is trading for everyone? The difficulty and low success rates in making one’s living from trading Brett referred to his blog, which has a ton of useful information for traders—including guidance for handling "turmoil and opportunity in markets" (which seems to capture our current situation).

Hint; it involves flying computer mice, payouts, and a wh0$e. Shifts in market regimes and changing of trends. A huge emerging theme of adapting to shifts in markets. Trending, emerging, range bound, mean reversion, low and high volatility…. Why traders don’t do a good job of detecting shifts within market regimes and the stress it causes. Most problems are not primarily psychological; they tend to be caused by not recognizing and adapting to the market shifts. Working with traders to help identify what type of trading environment we are in. All about using Relative Volume (rVol) to understand when market moves are likely to keep moving or stall out. How to understand the NYSE Tick ($TICK) How to blend rVol and $TICK to understand the current trading session. Why people have psychological issues with trading. Sticking to your system guarantees that you faithfully continue to do the wrong thing. Why having a play book is a good thing. How to not think in terms of “time” when trading and how to show this on your charts. Sometimes having an edge comes from looking at old things in new ways. Is there a way to emotionally learn to hold on to a trade to larger target after seeing it go against you a few ticks? Listen in for the Answer! Strategies to deal with watching your profit in an open position move against you. What makes people participate in manias or bubbles like cryptocurrencies even though it’s obvious there is not enough value to warrant the price? Listen in for the Answer! Trading using momentum. Understanding the dominant cycles within the markets. What are the main differences psychologically between big fund traders and retail traders? Listen in for the Answer! What pressures do asset and portfolio managers face. What are some of the regular psychological challenges that the big money traders face? Listen in for the answer! What is the most effective way to emotionally detach yourself from a trade? Is this even a good thing to try and do? Brett goes pretty deep here and you can read his blog post about this very question: http://traderfeed.blogspot.ca/2018/04/a-deeper-look-at-emotions-and-trading.html How losses become threatening. Unreasonable Goals and the reasons behind them and some solutions. Trading is a performance based activity and it takes time to get through the learning curve to become the best. Hope versus rational planning. The big threat is not failing to succeed in the markets; it’s failing to...

On today’s episode of Trend Following Radio Michael Covel interviews Brett Steenbarger. This is his 2nd appearance on Trend Following Radio. He is a Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry at New York State University, author of “The Daily Trading Coach,” “The Psychology of Trading,” and “Enhancing Trader Performance.” His newest work is “Trading Psychology 2.0: From Best Practices to Best Processes.” Michael and Brett start the podcast off by asking the question, “Do people really have that burning desire to succeed?” Brett says he does believe traders are drawn to trading for the money outcome, but also for the allure of not working a 9-5 job or the dream of scoring easy riches. Brett breaks it apart further by explaining the motivations for different traders: Practice and process are essential. He says, “You hear traders talk about finding your edge and sticking to your edge.” Finding your edge is a continual process because the markets are forever changing. You must adapt. Brett goes on to discuss the importance of back-testing and how valuable it is to your strategy. He gives the example that elite performers spend more time in preparation than in performance. That preparation helps develop a strategy and prepare the performer mentally. It pushes the performer to develop the best of what they are doing. Brett then details the difference between repeated performance and deliberate practice. Creativity is the next big topic discussed. Brett says it’s an individual’s creativity that breaks them away from the herd. A trader that has the creativity to diversify and test new strategies. Brett then touches on what it means to “trade your personality,” how paramount it is to have the right trading mentor, and the advantages of creating a checklist to bring out your best practices and make them routine. Lastly, Michael and Brett dig into the necessity of eating, sleeping, physical exercise, and yoga to help fuel a positive emotional experience in life and in trading. If you have been having trouble with the psychological aspects of your trading, this episode is for you.
