Psychology is 80% of trading success. This is because the human with a mind is going to execute the trades and a trader’s brain command center makes all the trading decisions.The brain’s command center can shut down due to stress responses , in the middle of a trade. Emotions can override rational trading rules, systems and methods taught by educators.Good traders don't trade everyday, they rarely trade.

Planning and executing involve different skills that draw upon different parts of the brain. Planning the trade is largely a function of your intellect, the prefrontal cortex PFC. You create your plan in a relatively calm state of mind with your PFC in charge. But when it comes time to execute the plan, other areas of your brain will become involved.
Traders have zero edge , unless you have a mental edge .All your delusional edges are worth zero , if you can’t execute your edge.This is a statement according to Mark Douglas.He preached patience, discipline and eliminating errors.
Mark Douglas – MIND OVER MARKET (Full length Interview)
“No man ever reached to excellence in any one art or profession without having passed through the slow and painful process of study and preparation,” he wrote.
Here is something else he wrote on the secret to success.
“If there is such a thing as a secret to the nature of trading, this is it: At the very core of one’s ability 1) to trade without fear or overconfidence, 2) perceive what the market is offering from its perspective, 3) stay completely focused in the “now moment opportunity flow,” and 4) spontaneously enter the ‘zone,’ it is a strong virtually unshakeable belief in an uncertain outcome with an edge in your favor.
Price action relies on timing the markets , but this has been proven to be too difficult for most , according to this article below and free google searches .
The third most important reason is , traders using subjective price action most are set to be defeated with mind traps , there is thread on it in the psychology section.Human mind traps are the same , if applied to trading or any other activity.
In conclusion Mark Douglas, one of the greatest trading educators and authors of our time , taught us the opposite of the fake philosophy for trading genuises who only sell education, but can’t trade .His 10 rules contradict with the application of price action education of James 16 .
1. Be rigid with rules, flexible with targets.
2. Focus on opportunities that provide an edge.
3. Trade free of expectations of being right or wrong.
4. Synchronise your mind to the truth of the market.
5. Beleive in uncertanity (The market can do anything)
6. Be flexible so as to perceive with the greatest degree of clarity and objectivity of what the market is offering from its perspective.
7. Be careful what you project into the future because nothing has got the potential to create more misery and unhappiness than unfulfilled expectations.
8. To make money, trade without fear but also overconfidence.
9. The degree to which you think you know, or assume you know or need to know what is going to happen next, equals to the degree you will fail as a trader.
10. What you perceive in the market is limited to what you know less that what is blocked by fear.
