The AlphaMind Podcast
Mastering trading is not about mastering markets but mastering yourself. The AlphaMind Podcast focuses on the 'Trader Self'. We look at the person doing the trading, their interactions with the market, the impact the market has on them, and the skills, actions and activities needed to navigate their way through the complex and uncertain terrain of financial, commodity, energy and crypto markets.

#47 Damian Hughes - The Winning Mindset
A winning mindset is at least as important to trading success as the strategies and tactics you deploy. But how much effort do put into developing a winning mindset?
Having a robust system or method for finding value, an appropriate philosophy to risk, a strong risk management practice, a thorough understanding of markets are all prerequisites for success. However, it is the combination of these factors allied to a winning mindset, which is where great performance occurs. This is the secret to success in financial markets.
In this episode we chatted with Damian Hughes, one of the world’s leading experts on cultivating a high-performance mindset. Damian has worked with multiple Olympic medal winners, world champion boxers, and sports team such as Barcelona, Manchester United and the Scotland Rugby Team.
