New Guide Outlines Strategies for Addressing a Traders' Most Common Performance Challenges.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c46812) has announced the addition of Enhancing Trader Performance: Proven Strategies From the Cutting Edge of Trading Psychology to their offering.

In Enhancing Trader Performance, clinical psychologist and active trader Dr. Brett Steenbarger covers many important issues, including strategies for addressing a traders' most common performance challenges; methods for altering the major patterns that interfere with trader performance; and blending performance and psychological strategies to create comprehensive programs for trader development. Enhancing Trader Performance will help readers find the perfect fit between the markets they trade and the approaches they take to trade them.

Traders can mentor themselves and further their development by drawing upon research and practice from psychology and various performance disciplines. Steenbarger provides a practical collection of validated strategies for enhancing trader performance and changing their psychological patterns. The book has a four-part structure: evidence (what has been found to work in trader performance enhancement and their psychological change); performance (strategies for addressing traders most common performance challenges), psychology (strategies for altering the major patterns that interfere with trader performance), and integration (blending performance and psychological strategies to create comprehensive programs of trader development).

Praise for Enhancing Trader Performance

"Brett Steenbarger gives traders the best tool to improve their own trading: a look into themselves. By setting up a quantifiable, positive learning system, Brett allows anyone, from experienced fund managers to beginner traders, to maximize individual potential."

"Brett proves that mental toughness CAN be learned and hits the nail on the head when applying performance theory to trading! He shows how classic topics, such as the consistency and habits built from day-to-day routines to the importance of positive self-talk, can be applied to the abstract arena of the markets. Traders of all levels will be inspired by these strategies for performance enhancement in their journey towards mastery."

CoLinda Raschke, LBRGroup, Inc.

"Successful traders know that winning has less to do with technical knowledge and more to do with understanding yourself, pinpointing your strategy and process, and implementing it in a consistent, disciplined manner. Enhancing Trader Performance shows that your personal success lies at the intersection of your talents, skills, and opportunities. Brett guides you toward identifying your talents, developing your skills, and applying both as opportunities arise. For anyone interested in improving their trading, reading this book may be one of the best trades you ever make."
