Book Synopsis

Transform your psychology, transform your trading!

Positive Trading Psychology demonstrates how to achieve sustained success in trading by identifying and leveraging your cognitive and emotional strengths.

There has been an explosion of research and practice in the field of positive psychology, but rarely have these insights and tools been applied to trading. Expert trading coach Brett Steenbarger, Ph.D. draws upon his research background in psychology and extensive work with professional traders to show how to transform your personal strengths into trading skills that evolve with markets.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced money manager, all participants in financial markets can benefit from understanding and applying their distinctive talents, skills, and interests. An illuminating manual for trading success, Positive Trading Psychology will teach you the proven strategies to maximize your psychology - in trading and in life.

Simple, illuminating and packed full of strategies for success, it all begins with the recognition that, at times, we are already the person - and trader - we wish to become.
