Want to Have a Good Trading Day?

For a long time, I used to believe that a good trading day meant "catching the wave early." That means:

📱 As soon as I opened my eyes, I checked the price.

No coffee, no notes — already glued to the screen. But what happened? Even when I am not fully awake, my mind has started trading.

If the market is green - feel excited. If red - feel worried.

That whole day became passive, with emotions fluctuating according to the price.

And I haven't had the chance to open the chart. 💭 Recently I have been developing a new habit. A small change — but gradually improving the way I trade ( and think ). ☕ Step 1: Do not check the price before drinking coffee.

Don't open the app, don't look at the chart, don't read any groups.

Spend just 5–10 minutes at the beginning of the day to… be a person. Do light exercises, breathe, step out onto the balcony. 📝 Step 2: Write a morning journal — just 2 lines: What trades did I make yesterday? What did I do well? What did I do wrong? This simple way helps me calm down. Remind yourself that you are not here to "catch the right bottom", but to trade the right way. 📊 Step 3: Then open the chart.

And the surprising thing is:

When I look at the chart with a clear mind, I no longer feel swept away.

I observe instead of reacting. My hands no longer tremble, my mind is clearer. 🧠 A good trading day does not come from a green market. But it comes from how you approached that day.

Be proactive, alert, and not led by price. 💬 How about you? How do you start your trading day?

Are there any habits that help you maintain your mindset before the market pulls you into a whirlpool? Let's share together — because in this volatile market, a strong mindset is our greatest advantage.
