Your Gut’s Full of It: Why Your Intuition Sucks at Trading (and How to Fix It) 🎯

🚨 STOP EVERYTHING. Let me guess—you’re staring at your trading screen, squinting at those candlesticks, and suddenly your gut chimes in:
“Hey, maybe THIS is the one. Or wait…maybe it’s a trap. Yeah, DEFINITELY a trap. Or…not?”

🤦‍♂️ Congratulations, my friend. You’ve just entered the “Doubt Spiral™.” It’s like the Bermuda Triangle but for your brain—and your money.

💭 “But I back-tested! I journaled! I even hypnotized myself to believe I’m the trading GOAT!”

Here’s the thing: Your intuition is like that one friend who always says, “Trust me, I’ve got this,” right before getting lost on a simple road trip. It means well, but it needs boundaries.

🧠 A Quick PSA:

Your intuition is NOT a trading strategy. It’s more like a seasoning. Sprinkle it lightly on your perfectly baked plan. Don’t dump the whole bottle on it and call it a masterpiece.


Here’s What You Do Instead:

1️⃣ Print Out Your A-Grade Trades 📄
Make it crystal clear what a chef’s kiss setup looks like. Compare your current “maybe trade” to the gold standard. If it doesn’t look like Beyoncé-level perfection, NEXT.

2️⃣ Journal Your Gut Feelings 🖊️
That’s right. Write it down, people. “Felt like this trade was a 9/10. It wasn’t.” Repeat for 50 trades. You’ll know if your gut is psychic or just full of it.

3️⃣ Detach from the Drama 🎭
Your doubts? Not facts. Your second-guessing? Also not facts. Half the time, it’s just yesterday’s bad mood sneaking into today’s decisions.

Look, traders, Denise Schull (aka trading psychology royalty 👑) said it best: “Your emotions aren’t the enemy, but they aren’t your boss, either.” So stop letting them sit in the driver’s seat.

The real flex? Trusting your PLAN over your PANIC. ✌️


🚀 Now, go forth and ask yourself: “Is my intuition actually adding anything, or is it just freeloading?” Spoiler: Probably freeloading.

Drop your funniest “gut fail” moments in the comments. Let’s all laugh at our collective misery—together. 😂
