Covering Mike Bellafiore’s \u2018The Playbook\u2019\n
\n <\/p>\n

Lowell Carty, Options and Analysis SIG Leader<\/p>\n

Want to become a truly great trader \u2013 either for yourself or for a proprietary trading firm? This book will help you get there. This unique approach is the closest thing to signing up for a \u201ctrader boot camp\u201d yourself! You\u2019ll learn by\n watching new traders walk through actual trades, explain what they\u2019ve tried to do, and try to survive brutally tough expert critiques. One trade at a time, The Playbook reveals how professional traders must think in order to succeed\n \u201cunder fire,\u201d how they assess their own performance, and how they work relentlessly to improve. Using concrete, actionable setups drawn from his extensive trading and training experience, Bellafiore walks through an extraordinary array\n of trades, showing readers how to maximize profits and avoid disastrous hidden pitfalls. He covers support plays, bull-and-bear flags, opening drives, important intraday levels, bounce and fade trades, pullbacks, scalps, technical\n opportunities, consolidation, relative strength, market trades, and more. He also presents indispensable insights on psychology and trader development, based on his work with hundreds of traders on a major commodity exchange and an\n elite prop firm\u2019s trading desk. Packed with color, personality, and realism, this is an exciting guide to real-world trading.<\/p>\n

We have generated a Playbook of trades over the summer months. Now we need to develop and apply the skills from the playbook by implementing the plays that work for us.<\/p>\n

We must journal our plays (trades) and much about our system, set up, attitude throughout the trade, selecting what to trade, why to trade, how to trade and when conditions change such that we need to exit the trade, what was done right,\n what was done wrong, can we replicate this play (trade) [if not, it is not a good trade]. We improve our play (trade) with each trade, journal, review and improvement to the system and improvement in our understanding and execution\n of the play (trade). The work on the play (trade) and trader is a continuous improvement practice resulting in a better playbook of trades and a better trader.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
