So there haven't been any updates for a while. That's because I stopped trading. I can't recall exactly when, but one day I just decided to with draw what I had left and left I think, £40 on my account. I'd had enough, but not just with trading but with my life in general. Work was shit, I was ill, I had stopped doing all the positive things I was trying to do in my life, learning Spanish, Meditating, changing my beliefs. I decided I was going to trade the FTSE and when my account was back to £100 then I would go back to the DAX. Well, that didn't exactly go to plan and I dwindled the account down to around £22 and then one day I got an email from TD365. It was a margin call! On a £20 account! WTF?? I immediately closed the trade and decided to step away all together.
So that's what I did. I regrouped and committed to changing my mindset and my beliefs as I knew that I couldn't possibly change my life and live the life I want if I myself didn't change. I started committing to meditating and to being aware of my thoughts, my emotions, and my habits. I started to get deeper into manifesting.
I found a meditation on line and I can honestly say it has changed my life. It's by a guy called David Bayer. He has a book called 'A changed mind' and it is a revelation. Also I was reading 'Mind Magic' by Dr Jim Doty and together these books are changing my life day by day.
David Bayer talks about simply bringing your attention to something different. Something good and not something negative. Transformation doesn't require effort, it simply requires a shift in focus. When you disengage in the old ways, the old habits, and in particular the old thoughts, you realise that everything you want to be, exists inside you already, it is merely covered up by the old ways. When you think new thoughts, you're breaking the synaptic connections in your brain of your old, habitual thoughts, and as they weaken, their illusionary grip on your reality weakens, and over time, you can change your reality simply by changing your thoughts. As you think new thoughts, they begin to gain momentum, and then the changes you make as a result of your new thoughts, also gain momentum.
It's genuinely powerful stuff.
So with this in mind, I will be back to trading this week. I am starting with £100 and will be trading the DAX. But, I will be approaching my trading from a very different perspective and with a very different attitude previously.
I am a different trader than I was before.
I am a different person than I was before.
