They have and will continue to take advantage of those who\u00a0suffer from this inherent weakness to fall for anything that promises to save them from their consistent losses\u2026NOW.<\/p>\n<p>Understanding and accepting that instant gratification can and will adversely affect our trading performance can help us develop the habits to fight the urge to win small now instead of holding on to the possibility to win big later.\u00a0 Ultimately, it boils down to the ego\u2019s desire to feel good now versus the possibility to feel better later. It is about instant gratification versus delayed (and longer term) satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p>The following articles can help us begin our understanding and acceptance of instant gratification:<\/p>\n<p>A new\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/seattletimes.com\/html\/books\/2024399627_impulsesocietyrobertsxml.html\">book<\/a>\u00a0on a society managed by impulse.<\/p>\n<p>There is nothing quite as\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/dennis-merritt-jones\/procrastination_b_1394133.html\">empowering<\/a>\u00a0as the feeling that arises from within when we stand toe-to-toe with our own dragons of lethargy and slay them.<\/p>\n<p>The initial goal of the experiment was to identify the mental processes that allowed some people to<a href=\"http:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/magazine\/2009\/05\/18\/dont-2\">delay gratification<\/a>\u00a0while others simply surrendered.<\/p>\n<p>The intensity of our\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/theamericanscholar.org\/instant-gratification\/#.VBWl4VHy3Ak\">self-centeredness<\/a>\u00a0is now being determined not by conscious decision but by the market.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the two most common psychological concerns of traders are\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/traderfeed.blogspot.com\/2014\/09\/overcoming-impulsivity-and.html\">impulsivity<\/a>&#8211;doing things without clearly thinking through the rationale&#8211;and procrastination, failing to act upon our plans and intentions.<\/p>\n<p>For\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.scientificamerican.com\/article\/how-to-avoid-the-temptations-of-immediate-gratification\/\">impulsive individuals<\/a>\u00a0who repeatedly make decisions that satisfy their current desires at the expense of their future needs, the negative effects on their health can be significant.<\/p>\n<p>We pursue\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/eml.berkeley.edu\/~rabin\/jbdmfinal.pdf\">immediate gratification<\/a>\u00a0in a way that we ourselves do not appreciate in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>When we turn to actual human beings, we find, instead of robot-like logic, all manner of irrational, self-sabotaging, and even\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/people.hbs.edu\/nashraf\/marketplaceofperceptions.pdf\">altruistic behavior<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #222222;\"><strong>David Blair<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>THE CROSSHAIRS TRADER<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thecrosshairstrader.com\/\">www.thecrosshairstrader.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>no relevant postions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>*****David Blair, The Crosshairs Trader, is a blogger\/trader\/educator who does a wonderful job of sharing research on elite performance and how it relates to trading.
