Upset when things are down and happy when they are up. Is a recipe for disaster. If you’re led by primal aspects of the market, fear and greed. Your fight flight response is constantly triggered and you will make bad decisions and be cooked.
Detachment and stillness while observing constant change is a discipline.
Thats why the old advise of don’t speculate with what you can’t afford to lose. Have a method suitable for you, know yourself. Is the base starting point. For most it’s hodl and forget.
The lessons of meditation are for spiritual development but the mental and physical discipline can be applied to aspects of life.
Ironically in the most transient cutthroat part of financial culture, the markets. We can starkly confront the realities of our survival instinct and the way it distorts human mind.
