Ep. 013 - Daytrading to swing trading: what I had to re-learn

Author: Adam H Grimes October 1, 2018 Duration: 28:06

There are some very important ways in which daytrading and position trading are different. These differences point us to some important elements of trader psychology and key points in trader development


Adam H Grimes brings a rather unconventional background to the financial markets. As a best-selling author, the mind behind MarketLifeTrading, and a principal at Talon Advisors, he’s also known for his pursuits as a musician and a wandering chef-a combination that suggests a unique perspective on discipline and creativity. In Trader's Workshop, he applies that broad experience directly to the craft of navigating markets. Each episode feels like a focused session, stripping away the noise and hype that so often surrounds trading talk. You’ll hear detailed explorations of market mechanics, risk management, and the psychological frameworks necessary for consistent decision-making, whether the topic is a deep technical pattern or a broader philosophical point about investor behavior. This isn't a platform for hot stock tips, but rather a space for building a durable, adaptable methodology. The discussions are crafted to be genuinely useful whether you're analyzing currency pairs, commodity futures, or equities, and regardless of your time horizon or analytical preference. Adam addresses the common ground between quantitative systems and discretionary judgment, making this podcast a resource for anyone serious about refining their process. The goal is practical insight you can apply directly, shared by someone who treats market participation as a serious, learnable skill. Tune in for conversations that are both technically rigorous and grounded in the real-world challenges every trader faces.
