â The Holy Grail of Trading Dear reader, From Matt: Welcome back to Market Insights. As promised, I’m handing the reigns back to Imre Gams today as our weekly guest writer. This week he talks about something called “Holy Grail Syndrome” and why it’s so important to find the investing strategy that works best for you. I hope you enjoy it! There are as many ways to make money from the markets as there are traders and investors. So, it makes sense that most people want the best way to pull profits consistently. In fact, they don’t just want to know what the ultimate strategy is… they’re desperate for it. You can call this desperation “Holy Grail Syndrome.” It’s when traders and investors are convinced the secret to making millions is out there somewhere waiting to be stumbled upon. The reality is that there isn’t any one best way to trade and invest. The only real Holy Grail of the markets is finding the way that works best for you. For example, I know that extremely fast-paced day trading isn’t for me. I prefer to have a bit more time to look for high-quality opportunities. I also don’t enjoy being stuck in front of a computer monitor all day. But there are extremely successful day traders out there who love what they do. Just as there are day traders who struggle with longer-term trading strategies. Maybe they don’t like the idea of going to sleep with open positions. They prefer to instead conduct and finish all their business within the trading session itself. That’s just fine. What matters most is that you figure out what works best for your lifestyle and your emotional and mental wellbeing. If you’ve ever placed a trade before, you know there’s an emotional component involved to all of this. Even if we hate to admit it, the truth is that one of the reasons trading is so hard is because of how emotional this business really is. Think of it this way: The same way you have physical capital to trade with, you also have mental capital. Mental capital is the emotional cost that your trading and investing takes. The best approach to the markets is one that allows you to protect and grow both your monetary capital and your mental capital at the same time. The ideal sweet spot is where you feel good about your trades or investments and they actually make you money, too. Of course, the big question is how to find your personal Holy Grail. I won’t sugarcoat it… finding your own Holy Grail is really difficult. But figuring it out is one of the most rewarding things in the world of trading and investing. Once you have your Holy Grail, the markets become so much simpler. Instead of chasing your tail and going in circles, you’ll be confidently executing trade after trade. And while I can’t find your Holy Grail for you, I can show you a guaranteed blueprint for how to figure it out… Make sure you tune in next week – when I’ll share my Holy Grail with you and explain how I found it. I won’t be holding anything back.

Today, it’s worth $57,000. Is now the time to panic? I don’t think so. On the [latest episode of the SteadyTrade Podcast]( Tim Bohen and I discuss the recent pullback in the world’s largest crypto and explain why we expect it to be short-lived. Several potential catalysts are on the horizon that could send Bitcoin and the broad crypto market higher. Those combined with the “extreme fear” reading in the Crypto Fear & Greed Index indicate that now could be the right time to start adding exposure to this asset class.
