Every new trading week I try to do a little process which I think you may find valuable: I try to make this week a new beginning, a clean slate which will allow me to trade in a positive and optimal way during the coming week. One of the things which a lot of traders do is carry over their mistakes from the past and this influences their mood and their trading decisions.

To avoid this I want you to try a little positive affirmation tricks with me here. You just need to say a few sentences to yourself and try to believe them as much as possible:

• This week I’m going to make more money than the last one
• This week I’m not going to let my emotions play with my decision making
• This week I’m going to try to spend less time monitoring the markets and more time doing what I truly love
• This week I’m going to educate myself further by reading articles or signing up for a Forex course
• This week I’m going to become a better trader overall
• Starting your trading week this way will help you remain positive about trading even if you had a bad run of luck lately.

To me it helps. I hope it helps you too.
