在开始研究自己之前,先搞明白自己在什么位置。 有希望在市场上赚钱的朋友们也可以看看自己在什么位置。
To help you with your self-assessment, I developed a quick
17-point questionnaire you can use to evaluate yourself. Take it
and pass it on to your friends; I’m sure you’ll all get some insights
into your performance. Answer each question with true or false.
............................
1. I have a written business plan to guide my trading/
investing. ____
2. I understand the big picture about what the market is
doing and what is affecting it. ____
3. I am totally responsible for my trading results, and as a
result I can correct my mistakes continually. (If either
part is false, all of this statement is false.) ____
4. I honestly can say that I do a good job of letting my
profits run and cutting my losses short. ____
5. I have three trading strategies that I can use that fit the
big picture. ____
6. For trading strategy 1 I have collected an R-multiple
distribution of at least 50 trades (i.e., from historical
data or live trading). If you don’t know what an
R-multiple distribution is, which you’ll learn later
in this book, you haven’t collected one, so answer
“False.” ____
7. For trading strategy 2 I have collected an R-multiple
distribution of at least 50 trades (i.e., from historical
data or live trading). ____
8. For trading strategy 3 I have collected an R-multiple
distribution of at least 50 trades (i.e., from historical
data or live trading). ____
9. For each of my trading strategies, I know the
expectancy and the standard deviation of the
distribution. ____
10. For each of my strategies, I know the types of markets
in which they work and in which they don’t work. ____
11. I trade my strategies only when the current market type
is one in which the strategies will work. ____
12. I have clear objectives for my trading. I know what
I can tolerate in terms of drawdowns, and I know what
I want to achieve this year. ____
13. Based on my objectives, I have a clear position sizing
strategy to meet those objectives. ____
14. I totally understand that I am the most important factor
in my trading, and I do more work on myself than on
any other aspect of my trading/investing. ____
15. I totally understand my psychological issues and work
on them regularly. ____
16. I do the top tasks of trading on a regular basis. ____
17. I consider myself very disciplined as a trader/
investor. ____
Give yourself one point for each true answer. Be honest
with yourself.
Fill in your score here_______
我的结果是只有5分。只有问题2,3,5,10,11是得分的。(留意问题3如果不能得分,那么后面的问题也都不能得分)
下面是结果的解释:
....................
Let’s take a look at how you rate.
14 or more. You have the makings of a great trader/
investor and probably do well in the markets.
10–13. You have a lot of potential but probably are
making some major mistakes; for many of you, these
may be psychological mistakes.
7–9. You are way above average but haven’t graduated
to the big leagues yet. You are like a high school
football star trying to move to the NFL.
4–6. You are better than the average investor on the
street but have a long way to go to hone your skills.
You probably need to work on yourself, your
discipline, and your trading strategies.
3 or less. You represent the average trader/investor. You
probably want someone to tell you exactly what to do
and expect to make big profits now; when it doesn’t
happen, you look for a better advisor or guru to help
you. Guess what? It doesn’t work that way. If you
answered “True” to questions 3 and 12, you have some
potential and, if you are willing to commit yourself to
excellence, could move to the top of the scale in a
few years.
自己排在倒数第二栏里面,基本符合一个初学者的层次。
