Securities Trading from Both Sides of my Brain



i suggest that successful trading requires a certain level of two things: cognitive intelligence (IQ) and emotional intelligence (EQ).


We use our cognition to 'plan the trade' and our emotion to 'trade the plan'.


the greater these two skillsets are, and the more in balance they are with each other, the greater the chance of trading success and ultimately trading mastery.

About Me

Adam Berkowitz
Massachusetts, United States
I have been actively trading the US Capital Markets since 1996. I earned my living from 1999-2010 by profitably trading for my own account. I have recently returned to my IT roots, but still continue to trade my IRA. I love talking about markets, so feel free to leave a comment.
