The more I keep my attention on the crypto markets and learning to perfect my trading skills the more I seem to be in tune with them on an energetic level. Consciousness infers trading in the external world that surrounds me! I find it marvellous how often it happens that the markets' behavior is somehow tied to my own life in all aspects. When it comes to timing, everything seems to be synchronous and I have started to make conscious use of it!
When I find volatility in the markets it is usually accompanied by gushes of wind and stormy weather outside here where we are. When there is inner upheaval in me I find the markets mirror it perfectly.
But these synchronous happenings go further.
There is a little mouse that lives in our winter house with us here in Bulgaria and it must have woken me up about a dozen times the last weeks, making noise in the attic or gnawing on something in the trash bin. And you know what is happening when he does? Moves in the market! He is not trying to annoy me but to WAKE ME UP!
Often I got annoyed with the little guy because I just wanted to sleep and have a quiet house at night, that is until I actually dared to open up the charts in the middle of the night when he woke me up, only to find that it would have landed me a perfect entry had I gotten up instantly!
Maybe I am seeing this all "too shamanically", translating exterior happenstances into meaning, but Mr. Mouse has become my trading alert number 1! As I said, a dozen times at least. It's almost as if he conspires with the spirit of the markets to make me a better trader ahahahaha. And so now when I get woken up at night - rather than resisting it and badmouthing the little guy - I get up and see if there is a glorious entry in the crypto markets to be had ;)
This goes even further. I have sometimes woken up without Mr. Mouse, for no apparenzt reason in the middle of the night or in the very early morning. Same thing: A great entry opportunity missed because I dabbled around too long instead of just getting up and seeing the charts. Trusting that I woke up for a reason.
Ad so it leads me to believe that the spirit of the markets and me are becoming more and more interconnected. I feel more able to tune in to them even when I am not actively watching them.
The next step would be to use this consciously to the full extent. You know how you can tell your body to wake up at a certain time and it does? Imagine being able to use this in-tune'ness with the markets to be able to wake up when a major move is imminent, when a glorious entry is waiting to be had.
I wonder if I can train myself to do just that. Fusing shamanic techniques of the mind to help my trading become more effective and rewarding.
So, outer and inner are always linked somehow. And for trading it's really no different <3 If you are someone who trades a lot and wants to learn becoming better at it: Do pay attention to the signs in your external world. They might not be obstructions or annoyances but in fact... your allies!
