Jim,
Would you be willing to post your impressions of the Williams and Roosevelt
tape sets you've purchased? What do you feel you got out of them, were they
worth the money, do you still use them?
I would also add to the list the "Trader's Affirmations" CD at
http://www.daytradingcourse.com/cd/ . I've had this for a while and highly
recommend it. The affirmations on the CD are mostly straight out of
Douglas. I find the presentation effective, and listening to it
periodically seems to keep me on an even keel. For $50 it's a bargain. (No
affiliation, just a satisfied customer).

Island
There are tape sets which are available to help in this area. I have
two of these. Ellen Williams has an 'Autogenic Training' tape set and Ruth
Barron Rossevelt has 'Power Trading Power Profits' both that deal with the
mental aspects of the trading game. Every trader should have imo 'Trading
in the Zone' by Mark Douglas in their library which deals very effectively
with the mental game. Joan Sotkin does individual mentoring along these
lines. Her web is http://ProsperityPlace.com. I can't give up a thumbs up
or down regarding her abilities.
We're leaving as a family from the mountains of Idaho and going to
Sanibel Island, Fl for 10 days over Christmas. Sanibel Island is only my
favorite place on Earth so BobsKC....keep it warm for us :)

Subject: Mentor: More Mental Game Than Otherwise
I really love all the feedback about getting/having a mentor.
But I should have been more specific from the outset:
I feel my challenges (and therefore my needs) are more
along the lines of my mental game. I have certain
"support and resistance" levels in my mental game that
hinder my growth as a trader.
I would like to find someone who is an expert at assisting
others in overcoming mental roadblocks and what I call
"psychological capital drainage" factors.
For me, I have found that on any given day, after early
morning self-analysis, there's a certain amount of
emotional capital that I have to work with.
I've found that the amount of emotional capital that I
have in my "mental account" at any given time is of more
importance than any amount of capital that's in my
trading account.
Bottom line is this: I have challenges with growing that
amount of emotional capital -- by growing through my
challenges (hopefully with the assistance of a "mental
mentor" if you will) I will be able to grow my financial
account as well.
Soooo.....
With all that in mind -- could someone recommend a
one-on-one counselor, coach, mentor, or otherwise who
you are confident can assist me in growing through
my challenges?
Thanks again to all who are so kind and generous with
their time to reply.
Warmly,
Brian Keith Voiles
