DTS Trading Quick Tips Part 2

On the Disciplined Trading Strategies resource page, near the bottom, there is a section called 21 Trading Quick Tips. These tips have slowly accumulated over recent years, without any particular schedule. I believe these tips have incredible value, even though most of them are only one-line snippets with powerful trading lessons. So, I am taking them seven at a time over three podcast episodes and explaining them in more detail, giving some history, and showing you how you can use them to your advantage.

What Holds All Traders Back

Most podcasts are on specific individual topics. I know a lot of you have listened to many or all of them, but even if you have, it is sometimes difficult to pull the topics together in a meaningful way. So, occasionally, I like to do some podcasts that tie a few topics together.This is one of those. Is this everything that can hold a trader back? Of course not. But it's a quick, off-the-top-of-my-head favorites list. And by the way, notice it doesn't say what holds “new” traders back. It says all traders.

McDonald's Days

This is a much bigger deal than the quiet title may be indicating to you. And I imagine the title brought about a little curiosity, and you probably have some idea what I’m going to talk about. It’s not meant to be a cute title, it is actually a term I use virtually every day. It does apply to both day trading and longer-term trading or swing trading, at least most aspects of this conversation do. It’s part of a problem that I call the silent killer for traders because it often goes unnoticed, sometimes forever.

Diversification and Leverage

This episode is a practical look at two topics that are not directly related, but are often misunderstood: diversification and leverage. Diversification is often misused. There are different goals when diversifying, and different methods for doing it. Leverage is also frequently misunderstood and, for the most part, is a much simpler topic. This episode will be fairly short and will focus on answering the common questions that come up when discussing both of these topics.

A Common Sense Warning

This episode is a brief common-sense reminder about staying aware, thinking clearly, and not getting too comfortable IF or when conditions may be changing. It is about preparation, perspective, and avoiding the kind of complacency that can quietly create bigger problems later.Sometimes the biggest risk is not what you see coming, but what you stop paying attention to. This has great information about how people get complacent, how you become a deer in the headlights, and tips on how to avoid it.Episode Slidenote: https://disciplinedtradingstrategies.com/podcast-slidenotes76/ Set up a free coaching session with Paul: https://calendly.com/dts-paul/coaching-session-w-paul The DTS Free Stuff Page: https://disciplinedtradingstrategies.com/free-stuff To learn more, visit: http://disciplinedtradingstrategies.com Listen to more episodes on Mission Matters: https://missionmatters.com/author/paul-lange

The Real Purpose of Scanning

If you’re new, scanning is the process of taking a large number of symbols and narrowing them down to a smaller group by identifying the characteristics you want for a possible trade setup. It applies to long-term trading, swing trading, and day trading. The main focus of this podcast is the balance and trade-off between quality and focus when scanning. There can be a real cost to watching too many symbols, just as there can be a cost to watching too few. Some traders manually review large lists, while others use computer scans to help with the process. We’ll discuss both approaches in this episode.Episode Slide Notes here Set up a free coaching session with Paul: https://calendly.com/dts-paul/coaching-session-w-paul The DTS Free Stuff Page: https://disciplinedtradingstrategies.com/free-stuff To learn more, visit: http://disciplinedtradingstrategies.com Listen to more episodes on Mission Matters: https://missionmatters.com/author/paul-lange

Averaging Down — The Trade That May Never End

The term averaging can be confusing for newer traders. In simple terms, it means entering a stock at one price and then adding more shares later, which creates an average cost basis based on how many shares were purchased at each price. Buying at higher prices is known as averaging up, while buying at lower prices is averaging down.In this episode, we take a deeper look at the pros and cons of the three different ways traders add shares to a position. These approaches I refer to as professional, risky, and deadly — and understanding the difference may be the key to avoiding a trade that never ends.Episode Resource: youtu.be/7eT7kjkq4NA?si=fDDXhv8t8KCkHclq Set up a free coaching session with Paul: https://calendly.com/dts-paul/coaching-session-w-paul The DTS Free Stuff Page: https://disciplinedtradingstrategies.com/free-stuff To learn more, visit: http://disciplinedtradingstrategies.com Listen to more episodes on Mission Matters: https://missionmatters.com/author/paul-lange
