“While the game of trading is certainly played on the ‘field’ of charts, software and computer screens, it is won or lost in the locker room of mental conditioning, courage and discipline”. - R2R Wisdom

Most traders do not understand why ...

• they can see the trades setting up but have difficulty in pulling the trigger at the right time.
• they can see the trades in hindsight but missed them in real-time.
• they entered the right trade at the right time just to exit at the wrong time and lose money.
• they continue to enter trades that consistently lose money.
• they feel a need to trade every minute they are in front of their screens.

While most traders are baffled by these questions (and many more!), we are not. The answers are revealed in the timeless principles that comprise The Golden Secret.

Futures trading is an elite endeavor and, like elite athletics, requires peak performance psychological training. This signature R2R element is yet another factor that distinguishes R2R and makes the difference between mediocre trading performance and extraordinary trading results.

R2R has identified the mental / emotional side of trading as a critical, and almost always missing, piece of the successful trading puzzle. Successful futures trading requires elimination of ALL emotions (fear, greed, anxiety, elation, anger, frustration, disappointment, etc.) that are inconsistent with calm, pragmatic rules-based trading. Trading is a game of mastering the ability to choose. The above mentioned reactive emotions reduce or eliminate one’s ability to make objective choices essentially eliminating the ability to consistently trade in a profitable manner. In other words, command of a software’s indicators coupled with emotional reactivity is a recipe for depletion of a trading account … usually sooner rather than later! This is responsible for more trader failures than any other single reason.
