rsacramento Escreveu:para quem apreciar/interessar-se por estes temas, recomendo vivamente a leitura do livro Trading in the zone, do Mark Douglas
A interpretação que faço do livro do Mark Douglas é que atribui à expressão "In the zone" algo diferente do que refere o Ulisses. Estar "In the zone" não tem a ver com os resultados, mas sim com o estado de espírito do trader, ou seja, e de acordo com Mark Douglas "When you are at peace with not knowing what's going to happen next".
Para ser mais específico aqui vai um excerto do livro:
When you completely accept the psychological realities of the market, you will correspondingly accept the risks of trading. When you accept the risks of trading, you eliminate the potential to define market information in painful ways. When you stop defining and interpreting market information in painful ways, there is nothing for your mind to avoid, nothing to protect against. When there's nothing to protect against, you will have access to all that you know about the nature of market movement. Nothing will get blocked, which means you will perceive all the possibilities you have learned about (objectively), and since your mind is open to a true exchange of energy, you will quite naturally start discovering other possibilities (edges) that you formerly couldn't perceive. For your mind to be open to a true exchange of energy, you can't be in a state of knowing or believing that you already know what's going to happen next. When you are at peace with not knowing what's going to happen next, you can interact with the market from a perspective where you will be making yourself available to let the market tell you, from its perspective, what is likely to happen next. At that point, you will be in the best state of mind to spontaneously enter "the zone," where you are tapped into the "now moment opportunity flow."
