9:30 - 10:30:Trading Psychology by Kerry Fagen
In this presentation, Kerry introduces the emotional roller coaster that comes with trading.
Whether you trade short term or long term, understanding how the brain responds to the highs and lows, and the space in between, is just as important as understanding the technical side.
Emotions can strongly influence the choices you make, so by becoming more aware of these emotional responses, you can better manage risk, improve your decision-making, and create a clearer path toward long-term success.
