Dreaming of Trading/trades

Recommended Posts

Anyone ever have dreams about trading? I had one last night which is odd as trading is not particularly at the forefront of my concious thinking right now.

 

I dreamt I took a short trade as price moved out of a multi day range , it broke down retraced a bit and formed a 'box' below the range and I went short. I held longer than usual and went to close a very profitable position and had platform troubles and could not. I decided to just hold over night rather than phone and close it or hedge.

 

The following day price did a gap and go and kept plunging lower I closed at 6400 for a profit of 34,000 euros per contract. Price finally bottomed at 6300. Not sure what the instrument was. I did deduce at this point that I had not been able to close the trade the day before as the platform was not logged in!

Freud could have fun with your dream... Hmmm. dreaming of a "box"? Holding out longer? trouble with your platform when you tried to close? lol

Hey Blowfish,

 

I've had several market dreams before and the majority of them played out almost to a tee the next morning. When I did follow up trading those dreams the next day it was very surreal. Even though I would have placed the trades anyway following my edge, it felt as though I had already traded this exact scenario the night before. If you’re having market dreams you must have been trading for a few years and to a certain degree become intuitive about market behaviour. I didn’t start developing small market intuition until earlier this year after trading for over 5 years.

 

I find it best to be open minded about those dreams but not to be too biased one direction.

Ha, yeah it doesn’t have to be! Do you know that he have over 60,000 thoughts a day and sleeping provides the time to organize and file or conscious and unconscious thoughts throughout the day. Also whatever you watch / experience 60 minutes before you fall asleep is what were most liked to think about the majority of our sleep.( this is why falling asleep in front of the TV in an induced state is terrible) Market dreams are very powerful because during out sleep we tap into the non-linear quantum field. A place where the past, present, and future exits at the same time.

 

I truly believe that market dreams are us simply tapping into a parallel moment that is already happening within the quantum field. When we take action on those trades the next morning we simply bring the experience from the invisible to the physical.

Related but in light of the minimal interest not worthy of its own thread :) is the idea of 'hunches'. There are a couple of instances in Reminissences of a stock operator where Livermore talks about 'hunches'. He puts this down to information that he has accumulated subconsciously about market conditions. He believed hunches where worth following up.

    • Why not to simply connect you account to myfxbook which will collect all this data automatically for you? The process you described looks tedious and a bit obsolete but may work for you though.
    • The big breakthrough with AI right now is “natural language computing.”   Meaning, you can speak in natural language to a computer and it can go through huge data sets, make sense out of them, and speak back to you in natural language.   That alone is a huge breakthrough.   The next leg? AI agents. Where they don’t just speak back to you.   They take action. Here’s the definition I like best: an AI agent is an autonomous system that uses tools, memory, and context to accomplish goals that require multiple steps.   Everything from simple tasks (analyzing web traffic) to more complex goals (building executive briefings or optimizing websites).   They can:   > Reason across multiple steps.   >Use tools like a real assistant (Excel spreadsheets, budgeting apps, search engines, etc.)   > Remember things.   And AI agents are not islands. They talk to other agents.   They can collaborate. Specialized agents that excel at narrow tasks can communicate and amplify one another’s strengths—whether it’s reasoning, data processing, or real-time monitoring.   What it Looks Like You wake up one morning, drink your coffee, and tell your AI agent, “I need to save $500 a month.”   It gets to work.   First, it finds all your recurring subscriptions. Turns out you’re paying $8.99 for a streaming service you forgot you had.   It cancels it. Then it calls your internet provider, negotiates a lower bill, and saves you another $40. Finally, it finds you car insurance that’s $200 cheaper per year.   What used to take you hours—digging through statements, talking to customer service reps on hold for an hour, comparing plans—is done while you’re scrolling Twitter.   Another example: one agent tracks your home maintenance needs and gets information from a local weather-monitoring agent. Result: "Rain forecast next week - should we schedule gutter cleaning now?"   Another: an AI agent will plan your vacations (“Book me a week in Italy for under $2,000”), find the cheapest flights, and sort out hotels with a view.   It’ll remind you to pay bills, schedule doctor’s appointments, and track expenses so you’re not wondering where your paycheck went every month.   The old world gave you tools—Excel spreadsheets, search engines, budgeting apps. The new world gives you agents who do the work for you.   Don’t Get Too Scared (or Excited) Yet William Gibson famously said: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."   AI agents will distribute it. For decades, the tools that billionaires and corporations used to get ahead—personal assistants, financial advisors, lawyers—were out of reach for regular people.   AI agents could change that.   BUT, remember…   We’re in inning one.   AI agents have a ways to go.   They’re imperfect. They mess up. They need more defenses to get ready for prime time.   To be sure, AI is powerful, but it’s not a miracle worker. It’s great at helping humans solve problems, but it’s not going to replace all jobs overnight.   Instead of fearing AI, think of it as a tool to A.] save you time on boring stuff and B.] amplify what you’re already good at. Right now is the BEST time to start experimenting. It’s also the best time to find investments that will “make AI work for you”.

    • What a wild year.   AI seems to be appearing everywhere you look, Paris hosted a weird Olympics, unrest continues in the Middle East, the US endured a crazy-heated election, and the largest rocket ever to fly successfully landed in a giant pair of robot arms.   Okay, but what about the $money stuff?   Well, this year we've seen a load of uncertainty - inflation is still biting and many businesses have gone down.   Property has been very fractured, with developments becoming prohibitively expensive, while other markets have boomed.   It hasn't been an easy ride, that's for sure.   However, the stock market has had some outstanding results, and for those who know how to trade, some have done VERY well for themselves.   Some have replaced their incomes. Some have set themselves up for the rest of their days on this planet.   How about you? How did you go?
