Patterns of Emotions in Stock Trading
TRADEway • December 3, 2019
Too many times, traders experience a negative pattern of emotions regarding the stock market. This can cause traders to make poor decisions, such as getting into a bad trade or not stopping out when they should. Even if a trade does go well, negative emotions may make a trader reluctant to continue trading.
At TRADEway, we believe in the importance of studying God’s Word. It is important to seek God throughout the trading process. Next time you find yourself dealing with negative emotions while in a trade, meditate on these three verses.
Isaiah 41:10 “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
Who doesn’t feel instantly calmer when reminded that God Himself promises to strengthen believers? Ask God to give you peace, then rest in the knowledge that He will guide you throughout the trade. God repeatedly shows us in His word that faithfulness leads to abundance. Turn your fear into faithfulness.
2 Timothy 1:7: “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”
Fear is not of God. It is the enemy attempting to distract you from God’s plan. When you begin to fear a poor outcome, you may make a decision that causes you to actually lose money. Remain focused on the plan you established before getting into a trade, and know that God has the power to calm your fears and give you a sense of rationality.
Romans 8:28: “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to His purpose.”
The main thing that should keep you from falling into a negative pattern of emotions is knowing that God is sovereign. Even when we encounter difficult situations, we know that God is in control, and His plan for us is success. You should trust your education and the rules you have put into place, but more importantly trust that God is in control, regardless of the outcome.
There are numerous verses of scripture that are appropriate for a trader who is dealing with fear or anxiety. Bible reading should be part of your daily routine. Get into God’s Word and watch the transformation that will take place! What verses help keep you focused?

What if I told you that the Bible teaches that you can use debt to get out of poverty? Today I want to take on the question “Is it okay to take on debt as a Christian?” Now debt is obviously a big topic, and people tend to have a lot of opinions about it. My hope is that I’m able to bring some Biblical clarity to the issue and offer some things for you to think about. Let’s get into it.

Experienced traders know this: Sometimes trades go against you. It’s going to happen. And it’s normal. But here’s the thing you need to know: You only need to get 5 or 6 trades out of 10 right to win in order to be profitable, and to have the potential to change your life financially. The key to becoming profitable isn’t to have every trade go perfectly. It’s to win big and lose small. And a good rule of thumb to shoot for is making a 30%+ return on a trade when it works, and only losing 8-10% at the most if the trade doesn’t work. If you want to learn more about how to maximize your gains and minimize your losses, join us for the next Unlock the Stock Market Challenge, where we’ll teach you the foundations of trading in just five days.
