How to Overcome Heart, Head, and Habit
Are you putting in the effort… but still not getting the results you deserve in the markets?
Are you working hard on your trading, but find yourself reacting emotionally to every little market move against you?
In this episode of Talking Trading, best-selling author and trading mentor Louise Bedford shares a powerful framework from NYU Professor Adam Alter that every trader needs to know: Heart, Head, Habit.
You’ll learn:
• Why even skilled traders get stuck – and the 3 hidden forces that cause it
• How emotional friction sabotages your trades (and what it’s really costing you)
• The surprising shopping-centre story that explains why traders abandon good setups
• How to diagnose whether your real issue is trading psychology, your system, or your routines
• The exact steps to run your own Trading Friction Audit to pinpoint what’s stopping you
If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and start moving forward, this episode will show you how to identify your hidden blocks and build the mindset, strategies, and habits that lead to long-term success in the markets.
