Denise Shull, President and Founder of Trader Psyches, focuses on helping traders think about thinking and in doing so I believe she offers a great deal of insight for serious traders. She was recently interviewed on CNBC, so take a listen.
I have been attempting to conduct an interview with Ms Shull but due to her busy schedule I have been unable to do so thus far. However, I was able to get an answer to one question in an email exchange I had with her. I asked Ms Shull whether or not successful traders are born or made. Her answer: “they are born but they can be made.”
I suggest you take a look at her website TRADER PSYCHES and sign up for her blog posts as I have. They are very insightful and worth a look. Here is her latest post: Morgan Stanley, Tom Watson and Recovery. Also, I would suggest you take a listen to several of her presentations via CME Group. These are free and worth a listen. Simply go to the following page and sign up to listen: CME GROUP BROWSE MATERIALS PAGE.
After watching the CNBC interview and reading her blog posts, come up with questions that I can ask her and email those to me. Once I secure some interview time, I am sure she would be glad to answer questions from readers who may be interested in her services and what she has to say about the psychology behind successful trading.
Please note: I am in no way compensated for mentioning Ms Shull or her site. I believe she has much to offer the trader who understands that properly managing the psychology behind trading can be the impetus for successful trading.
