Harriman House Mastering the Mental Game of Trading by Steven Goldstein - Paperback - Trading Psychology Book for Adult Traders

Mastering the Mental Game of Trading is a candid, experience-led guide to the psychology behind trading success, written by renowned performance coach Steven Goldstein. Drawing on decades spent inside investment banks and years coaching professional traders, Goldstein shows how attitudes, biases, and unconscious habits quietly undermine performance. This paperback is built for traders who already understand strategy and charts but want to master the one variable that decides whether good ideas actually get executed under pressure: the mind. Trading looks like a battle of numbers, but Goldstein argues it is really a battle of self-awareness. Through relatable stories drawn from real traders he has coached, the book uncovers the subtle misconceptions and emotional traps that sabotage even experienced market operators — chasing losses, hesitating on winners, overreacting to setbacks.
