I happened to catch a presentation by trading shrink, Robin Dayne, in Woodie's HC room this afternoon. I'm not going to link to her site, since she got a ton of free advertising already. Google her if interested. Actually, I don't believe she's an actual shrink, but rather a Tony Robbins guru that fell into mentoring daytraders with their mental problems. She mentioned a lot of Tony Robbins neuro-linguistic and "scrambling" stuff to undo faulty neuroconnections.

It was sorta interesting. Honestly, Gio gives better seminars on trading psychology. Dayne was obviously just selling her services. She took questions from the peanut gallery, and there were a ton of them, but her standard answer was basically "call me" or more precisely "if you ain't payin', i'm not sayin'." Her little powerpoint slideshow ended and her price list was displayed: $350/hr (Jesus Christmas!), plus some discounted half-hour blocks sold as a "5 pack" and "10 pack." Wow, she's Robin somebody. That's highway Robin.

I didn't catch robin but did have a look at hotcom. It does sound that her approach is too pushy. I think if you listen to gio's stuff on woodie's website I think you are provided with some very good ideas and tools of how to think about trading. Of course, I do think successful trading is within the reach of very few. I do think that tuning one's psychology is a true necessity.
