Meditation for Traders

Train and work with your mind and your emotions.

Meditation for Traders Course Overview

As a trader, you’re more similar to an endurance athlete than you might think, unless you’re both, then you’ll get this comparison pretty easily. An endurance athlete must take a long-term approach in their day-to-day training as they prepare for races over the months, years, and decades. Specifically they steadily train and cultivate their physiological and aerobic capacities in order to optimize their long-term performance and results. 

Similarly, as a trader you are continually training for long-term, sustained financial success, and you’re an endurance monster, patiently watching and analyzing charts. Instead of training your physiology, I would argue that you as a trader are, at a fundamental level, training the power of your mind more than anything. Your mind is both the oxygen and the core muscle of your trading. You continue to sharpen your mind and perceptive capacity to more deeply understand trading, charts, markets, etc. You also work with your emotional responses and reactivity, whether FOMO, FUD, or mania, so as to not let reactivity hijack the power of your mind and attention to see clearly and make smart decisions in real-time. 

Meditation For Traders Overview

Given how central working with your mind and emotions are as a trader, committing to training your mind directly in conscious practice you can greatly improve both your success in trading as well as your recovery, wellbeing, and joy away from the charts. 

In this course I’m offering you several tools and practices for you to train and work with your mind and your emotions at the most foundational and core level of your being, in the same way an endurance athlete trains their biological systems for performance in races and in optimizing their recovery. 

The practices I’m offering you are well-suited for both beginners and advanced practitioners. The only difference is how much time you put in, and how deep and subtle you cultivate the power of your mind and attention. 

This course is a supportive, foundational starting point for your journey as an Awakened Trader. There is much more depth to explore, more practices, and more insights. I will add to this course based on your interest and experiences.

Yours in practice,
Ryan Oelke
