À propos de ce contenu audio

 In this episode of the Market Mamas trader psychology podcast, host and futures day trader Becky Gaskell explores how to transition from the "boom and bust" cycle to stable, "boring" trading. She emphasizes that consistency is a skill built through process loyalty rather than willpower, and that base hits for your accounts will compound over time. Minimizing the over-leveraged, higher-risk trades early in your trading career will earn you profits faster than you think. ------------------------------------------------------Download Becky's custom trading audio tracks for free and start mastering the mental game to stay focused, grounded, and in control.👉 ⁠https://www.market-mamas.com/audio-tracks-download⁠ 👉Love the show?
