Most Traders Ask the Wrong Questions Here’s How to Fix It
The Secret to Better Trading? Start Asking Smarter Questions
There’s a simple shift that can change your entire trading game…
It’s not a new strategy.
It’s not an indicator.
It’s not even about psychology (well, maybe…)
It’s about asking better questions…
ASK BETTER QUESTIONS
See, most traders ask the wrong ones.
(Guilty as charged… this was me 20 years ago as a developing trader )
Why does this always happen to me?
Why can’t I be more disciplined?
Why do I keep missing trades?
These are dead-end questions. They lead to frustration, excuses, and no real progress.
Great traders ask:
What can I learn from this losing spell?
How can I improve my execution by just 1%?
What’s stopping me from following my plan, and how do I fix it?
Exactly the same situation… but a different lens.
One keeps you stuck. The other moves you forward.
So here’s your challenge for today:
Before your next trade, before your next review… ask yourself a better question.
Your default will be whatever you’ve always asked.
But pause. Reframe.
Push for a better answer.
It’s a skill worth mastering.
