Establish a "Wu Wei Hour." For one full hour during your usual trading session, you are not permitted to place a single trade. Your only task is to watch. Observe the charts. Observe your own impulses. Notice when the urge to "do something" arises in your body—a tightening in the chest, a restlessness in the fingers. Do nothing. Let the urge pass.
This practice builds the muscle of detachment. It teaches you that you are not your impulses. You are the stillness that observes them.

Map the current market sentiment onto the Wu Xing. Is it blazing fire? If so, prepare for the harvest of Earth.

When you feel euphoric about a winning trade, locate the Yin within it. When despairing at a loss, find the seed of Yang: the lesson, the opportunity.

Before every trade, ask: “Am I rowing upstream or downstream?”
