Boomerang: The Biggest Bust


51r9s3A65LL With rare insight based on his first-hand commodity trading experience, Mark Douglas demonstrates why the beliefs learned to function effectively in society are often formidable psychological barriers in trading. “The Disciplined Trader” helps you join the elite few who have learned how to control their trading behaviour by developing a systematic, step-by-step approach for winning — week after week, month after month. In a comprehensive and logical manner, Mark Douglas shows you how to examine and limit your trading behaviour — how to develop the mental discipline possessed by the small minority of winners who make money consistently.Mark Douglas is President of Trading Behaviour Dynamics, Inc. A successful commodities trader himself, Mark has drawn on his own experiences – as well as observations of countless other traders in his consulting business to identify and develop methods for overcoming counterproductive trading behaviours. He conducts his own seminars and workshops for leading commodities and brokerage organisations as well as being an invited speaker at numerous investment conferences around the world.
