Funny, ive never been in more self control since working out, discipline created by an exercise routine translate over to trading. Both require commitment, a plan, and goals. Information disseminates at lightning speeds today which causes the volatility, not hormones lol.

Not to forget 60+% of the traders in the market don't even have hormones...not yet anyway.

Very interesting article, thanks for sharing. I love working out before the market open I feel more awake and alert.

Interesting stuff....thanks for sharing. Not a coincidence that practices that help reduce cortisol are also recommended practices for good trading.
