My colleague started active trading last year, and he is feeling very stressful now, market goes up, goes down, up, and down. Sell and then goes up big times, buy, and it goes down, cut loss, and then see it goes up, and so on...

I has advised him to read books by Van Tharp on trading psychology, and success-related issues such as self-sabotage. , Ph.D or visit http://www.smarttraderblog.com/
