  1. Do you know your trade set up and entry? What gets you into the market and why? Here's a hint: it won't be coming from CNBC.
  2. Do you know your system's largest loss? It WILL show up again. Be sure to factor that into every trade you take.
  3. Do you know how to manage risk properly? Be careful, more factors apply to managing risk than they do to spotting entries!
  4. Did you work on your trading plan today? Why? Why not? Do you even have a trading plan? Why? Why not?
  5. RT @FreeTradingVids: Don't be either a bull or a bear....but rather be both at any given moment. -- Great advice FTV!
  6. How many times have you talked yourself into or out of a trade? Why not let the market do the talking instead?
  7. Do you know what you're looking for in the market? Do you know when you've found it? Move toward the details.
  8. If a market is rising (or falling) is it more important to know why or to trade it correctly?
  9. Here's an excellent article on trend following: http://tinyurl.com/kwv7zv
  10. Do you know that different trends exist on different time frames? How are you determining the trend on YOUR timeframe?
  11. Ask yourself: how am I determining a stock's value, and are my methods correct - meaning - do they produce net profits for my account?
  12. In times of trading uncertainty stop trying to be certain. The market will clarify all soon enough. Let yourself be open to the message.
