Since the beginning of the stock market, financial sector researchers have worked to understand the factors that influence how people make decisions. According to classical financial theory, investors act rationally, which sustains market efficiency. However, this clearly doesn’t describe human behavior in practice – people frequently make irrational decisions that aren’t predicted under this theory. As a consequence, financial markets fluctuate widely.
This phenomenon has led economists to turn to behavioural science to help them understand how financial markets function in reality. Eventually, a new field emerged that combines conventional financial theory with cognitive psychology: behavioural economics.
Behavioural economics has helped to show that economic theory on its own cannot explain human behaviour, as behavioural economics is able to explain both rational and irrational decision-making. It also set the stage for the advent of neuroeconomics as an...

If you neglect to develop a structured business plan that accounts for your costs, it will be hard to develop a strategy for a long-lasting career in trading.

Because anxiety causes psychological pain, your mind will naturally try to keep you from experiencing it. Think about it – the easiest route for you to take is usually one that doesn’t make you feel nervous, stressed, or uneasy at all.
Now let’s consider this in terms of trading psychology....
