Are you hiding your trades from your spouse? Your own trading psychology can stuff up your relationship.

Do you hide the trades that aren’t going well from your spouse and only show them the ones where you’re making money?

Are you a perpetual bull, or a perpetual bear when talking to your spouse?

Do you deluge your spouse with details about trading, until their eyes glaze over and they start looking feverishly around the room for a staple gun so they can staple themselves to death?

All of these issues may just mean that your spouse is just not that into you… as a trader. Work on your trading psychology before bombarding your spouse with your issues..

So often we barrage those we love with things that interest us – never stopping to wonder whether they’re as keen on the topic as we are. Take pity on your spouse. Give them a break. Find a trading friend to rave to, or you might just find yourself damaging your relationship.
