Do cold showers equal better trading discipline?
I believe so...
Turning that temperature control over to full cold is the ultimate discomfort.
That little voice inside you is trying to convince you NOT to get uncomfortable.
That's precisely the same voice that convinces you to take that impulsive trade, snatch at profits and revenge trade...
Running a cold shower protocol allows you to train yourself to (as Steve Ward said) "Get comfortable with being uncomfortable"
Simply put: The more control you can have over your desire to go with the comfortable choice, the more discipline you'll have during the trading day.
