Hi Jeff,
thanks for the video…good suggestions…only would find more specific points about the front end evaluating the market which you referred to.

Lawrence
Interesting stuff Jeff – would have been far more powerful however if you had actually gone through examples of each point eg overall market – reviewing trades – other points etc etc
As a nubbie, I found this very helpful to learn the components of a underlying approach to develop good trading habits early in my training to follow daily.
Thank you.
Great video, A lot of good stuff
Well said, we all go through nervous experiences, only to be a better person, athlete, or trader. We have to use the nervousness to build on our abilities. Nerves are a natural way to prepare us for the event.
Great advice. It’s a plan not just for trading, but for life in general.
Thank you for this video. I am trading regularly now. This month was a down month but I learned a lot. I have a long way to go, but I will get better.

Jeff, Thank you for the video. Instilling this habit into my daily routine will help me become much more disciplined as a trader. Too often, without this pre and post planning, I get whipsawed by what the market is doing tick by tick and not falling back on my trade plan. Thank you for going over the importance of this (and the trading idea book), this should help me improve my results!
Great Stuff!
The key for me is that you have made all of it a daily habit. Something I have yet to do with this Options trading and reflects in my up and down success.
More Please!
Thanks
Tony
Great site. A lot of useful information here. I’m sending it to some friends!
“Law of Practice” it seems so simple yet so creative!. I have put 10,000 to paper and will take action on it.
Thanks for sharing this Jeff!
Hey Brent,
Glad you’re part of the Credit Spread Trading Made Simple Tribe! It’s just a matter of time before you become the All-Star of the Month.

matt furey has the secret which is really no secret at all. which is when you truly want something you will find a way to get it done. matt’s bodyweight exercise system is as basic as they come but will deliver the most results if applied correctly. matt was the reason i found j.z. and credit spreads. if matt’s wife who speaks english as a second language could grasp this and become successful i knew i could as well. it turns out i was correct. i was typical of that 90% of people who started off great guns and then quit after awhile when success does not come immdediatley. after about 6 months of no credit spread study or exercise i have resumed both and of course the results are much more positive and i am back in the zone. it’s really just that easy.
Jeff,
Nice post! A wise man once told me that most “overnight successes” actually take 10 years. It’s nice to know that 10,000 hours works out to only 4.8 years assuming 40 hours per week. That’s not so bad.

Hi Jeff,
I first read about this idea of 10,000 hours to mastery in Michael Masterson’s Early to Rise newsletter. In that article he mentioned that a person could cut that number down significantly (I don’t remember exactly by how much) by modeling someone who had already achieved mastery of your goal or by being coached by someone who had already achieved mastery. So. . . thanks for all the great coaching and inspiration for those of us who want to learn to be great credit spread traders. Regards, Laurie L.
Great article – This nervousness you described in your article is known as eustress, which literally means “good stress”. By definition, this is the type of “positive” stress that keeps us vital and excited about life. I learned about this during my training to be a ED/Trauma Nurse and learned to utilize this stress to provide the best outcomes for my patients. I am now working at utilizing eustress to become a successful trader.
