As a trader, you have to be able to keep a check on your emotions, no matter what the state of play.

Like air traffic controller, a sniper.

Life or death.

My next guest on A Trader’s Life is no stranger to extreme pressure in trading.

He’s been trading since the eighties when charts were typically worked up with a pencil and paper.

When he was diagnosed with arthritis as a young man, he knew he’d have to work on his mindset if he was to cope with the kinds of stressful situations he found himself in on a daily basis..

Today Mark Randall is a very successful high performance coach. He helps develop traders, and trading teams at corporate level. They hire him because his methods and teaching make a real difference, not just in financial gains but also in terms of a trader’s overall wellbeing.

A unique trading strategy with a very high win rate

You've probably heard of Fibonacci, and you may already be using the Fibonacci tool you find on TradingView as part of your trading stratregy.

Until about a year ago, I thought these tools were the last on the subject of Finoacci sequences. Then I met trader and investor All Peters-Plocher and talked to the people using her proprietary Fibonacci tool and strategy.

To date, I have met five of Alla's students, and they all said joining Alla's courses was the best investment they ever made.

One of the guys I spoke to said he'd been struggling for about 10 years before he joined one of Alla's courses, and once he got going, he was consistently profitable. He just bought a house in Arizona with the money he's made since he joined.

Like me, he's a filmmaker. One of things he loves about her system is that he spends only a few minutes a day checking trades, and can focus on his filmmaking projects.

I also met Alla herself when she was over in London, early in 2024. She even took me to lunch - at Claridges! - with her husband and two other 'student' traders.

I believe she genuinely cares about the traders who sign up to her programs. More than that - she's on a mission to help traders of all abilities.

It's very rare I send out affiliate links, not least because I have to have complete faith in the person and his or her coaching or product before I do - but down below you'll find some links to her courses.

Transform your trading performance

If this is a good time for you to join one of Alla's program, and you found this podcast episode useful in helping you come to that decision, I'd really appreciate it if you were to sign up via one of the links below - it would be extra cost to you but would help me cover some of the costs of running this podcast and enable me to do more ambitious episodes, both audio and video, in the future.

If you'd like to talk to me in person about Alla's courses, feel free to reach out on email - nic.penrake@gmail.com - and we can arrange to have a chat over Zoom or WhatsApp, whichever you prefer.

Previously a lawyer, now a full time trader, Pablo Fdez Escarzaga from Spain told me he spent his first two years trading the markets "going nowhere".

Then, quite by chance, he came across Alla Peters Plocher’s Fibonacci Trading Institute and, within a few months of applying her strategy, his trading improved. Massively.

Today he typically makes 10% a week trading her method on a range of assets, from Futures to options.

Pablo is the fourth person I’ve spoken to who signed up to Alla’s course and completely transformed his trading performance. If you feel as Pablo did that you're "going nowhere" with your trading, or you're making progress but it's all so up and down, I think you’ll find this conversation highly motivating.

Discover the benefits of Alla's unique trading strategy

It's very rare I send out affiliate links, not least because I have to have complete faith in the person and his or her coaching or product before I do.

At the time of writing this, I have met four of Alla's students in person, and they all said joining Alla's courses was the best investment they ever made.

One of the guys is a filmmaker. He said he'd been struggling for about 10 years before he joined one of Alla's courses, and once he got going, he was consistently profitable. He just bought a house in Arizona with the money he's made since he joined.

If you’ve been trading a while, it’s probably safe to assume you’ve come across the Fibonacci retracement and extension tools. And perhaps you’ve also come across a few traders on YouTube who show you how to use these tools.

But unless you’ve already joined the Fibonacci Trading Institute, you won’t have come across the Fibonacci tools and strategies as created by Alla Peters Plocher. This, to me, is another dimension altogether.

Alla has been fascinated by numbers and patterns in music and mathematics since she was a child. She became fascinated by the markets some twenty years ago, and today she has students all around the world.

If you’re fascinated by the patterns we see in the markets, and you want to develop a more preciseI trading strategy than you currently work with, I think you’ll get a lot of value from this episode.

Alla's Coaching Programs

It's very rare I send out affiliate links, not least because I have to have complete faith in the person and his or her coaching or product before I do.

I have met three of Alla's students in person and they all said joining Alla's courses was the best investment they ever made.

One of the guys is a filmmaker. He said he'd been struggling for about 10 years before he joined one of Alla's courses, and once he got going, he was consistently profitable. He just bought a house in Arizona with the money he's made since he joined.

I also met Alla herself when she was over in London, early in 2024. She even took me to lunch - at Claridges! - with her husband and two other 'student' traders.

I believe she genuinely cares about the traders who sign up with her. More than that - she's kind of on a mission to help traders of all abilities.

In this episode you have here I was again fascinated by the precision of her strategy. I don't know about you, but it's less the thought of making more money than the thought of being more accurate and efficient with my trading that motivates me. Like a runner who wants to beat his personal best.

If this is a good time for you to join one of Alla's program, and you found this podcast useful in helping you come to that decision, I'd really appreciate it if you were to sign up via one of the links below - it would be extra cost to you but would help me cover some of the costs of running this podcast and enable me to do more ambitious episodes, both audio and video, in the future.

How do you deal with bad days, the slow days trading? Who do you talk to? The cat, the dog, your reflection?

Sometimes there’s no one around. You’re there on your own looking at red numbers getting bigger and bigger. Not every day, we hope, but it can happen. And when it does, it can be a lonely experience.

Even if someone’s at home, who wants to listen to you groaning about a trade you missed, some heavy drawdown you can’t face losing?

My next guest is a veteran trader - Clive Arneil. Clive makes it his business to teach and support all kinds of retail traders, from beginners to seasoned pros. He takes some pride in running an online trading room called At The Sharp End.

Good humoured, down to earth, with oodles of experience, Clive is genuinely eager to help other traders.

Many traders like the fast action of a one-minute chart. Only a few who do can trade it consistently.

Daniel Munday prefers the higher timeframes.

It doesn’t surprise me, because everything about his demeanour exudes patience and humility - a far cry from the picture of raving traders in the land of Wolf on Wall Street.

It’s only fitting perhaps that Daniel not only prefers trading the higher timeframes, he also enjoys mentoring other traders. Here we are in his spotless apartment in South West London, middle of May 2024.

A lot has been said about mindset when it comes to trading. Which rather suggests it’s easier said than done. We all know revenge trading is bad, patience is good. Panic is bad, composure is good. And so on. But how do we achieve and maintain a calm state of mind, so we trade at our best?

On this episode I talk to a former trader, who for the last 18 years has been helping traders and other professionals get out of their own way and perform better in their chosen arena.

Here we go, delving into the mind with performance coach Stephen Desborough.
