Re:Therapy for Traders

Pedro,

Thanks for your reply.

<<I define hypnosis as "a necessary daily conversation with my SELF in the most sincere terms where often enrmous criativity and inteligence spring up". I have no doubts whatsoever that if and when I fall ill I can harness my unconscious to heal.>>

Yes I agree, I too do a daily meditation to clear my mind before I begin trading. I also trade the emini ES and MR (Russell).

I believe Ed Seykota was a student of Milton Erickson. The Trading Tribe Process as he calls it, attempts to clear in a group setting the interruption in flow of experience from the subconscious mind to the conscious. For example if in our childhood we suffered a trauma, which was never communicated to our conscious mind, Ed maintains that our subconscious mind creates these 'dramas' or self sabotage in order to get our attention. It keeps on repeating them at ever greater volume to get our attention.

After a refferal from another thread, I did buy a copy of Lanktons book 'The Answer Within' and would recommend it to anyone who wishes to get a better understanding of Erickson's work.

Best - Larry
