What is Incremental Excellence? Incremental Excellence is exactly that. Achieving excellence as a trader through the process of incremental improvement.
How can you, the average trader, go from unsuccessful and unprofitable trader, to profitable trader?
Many traders dream of that “Ah Ha!!” moment when suddenly it all makes sense and thereafter every day is a profitable trading day.
If only.
Trading doesn’t work that way. The answer is not some single momentous “Ah Ha!!!” moment, but instead small improvements to different areas of your trading that over time and in sum gradually take you from an account blowing trader to a slowly losing trader, to a break even trader to an occasionally profitable trader to a consistently profitable trader.
This is the Trading Journey, and we are each of us somewhere on this path.
I hope that as I document my trading journey and the hard lessons learned that you will draw some comfort from a difficult path shared.
More importantly, it is my hope that somewhere within my posts you will gain tools and strategies for overcoming the obstacles you encounter on your trading journey.
My focus is deliberate practice and process-oriented action.
How can we break down a large or difficult problem and systematically overcome it?
Its frustrating when some tells you to, “let winners run and cut losers,” but doesn’t tell you how to go about doing that.
I hope to describe and discuss common areas of trading difficulty and not just talk about the problem but give actionable strategies and steps for overcoming said problem.
Join me on my trading journey and hopefully we will all move forward on the path to trading excellence.
