Study Ideas and Suggestions
Plan study activities that will build your skills as a trader and use your time productively.
Plan your study around a market movement you are having difficulty spotting.
Plan your study by asking: What will I be trading today? How can I plan my study to best help me develop the skills I am weak in?
Set goals to trade what you are studying.
Visualize placing trades when signals appear.
Evaluate how well you trade with the principles that you have learned. Choose one way in which you can improve, and make plans to do so.
Be alert by getting plenty of sleep, exercise, and proper nutrition.
Study in a place that is comfortable and peaceful. Organize you study materials before you start to study. Study by topic.
Visualize what you are studying. For example, imagine what it would be like to capture the beginning of a large move. What did the indicators look like, what did the candlesticks look like. Were there at least two confirming trading signals. What would it look like if there were three or four confirming signals?
Write in your study journal questions you have. Make a list of potential resources to use in finding the answers.
Share what you learn with other traders. You can learn much by explaining a trading strategy or principle to another person.
Memorize your trading plan.
