Forex Traders Must Face Continuous Health And Stress Issues

Forex Market Commentary  
 


Twenty thousand years man was a hunter that roamed the plains surviving on a staple of lean protein, nuts and berries. Today man has become a complex social creature facing different issues of survival which are largely man-made. The story of evolution does not always guarantee the survival of a species. In spite of a comet impact which wiped out a large percentage of the dinosaurs, eventually, it was the changing cooling climates which wiped out most of the reptilian cold-blooded dinosaurs which were not able to adapt with the changing environment.

The Forex trader faces a complicated world that changes more rapidly than that the clouds above the alluvial plains where our fore-fathers hunted. Nature's perennial code of 'Survival of the Fittest' has become more than an instinctive reaction to fading daylight and wind carrying moisture in the air. The basic instinct of the modern man is largely a response action to man-made smells, sights and sounds where the brain has to process and sort-out and differentiate between natural and man-made phenomena. Within this new world is the life of the Forex Trader whose basic instinct for survival largely revolves around binary and digital information. A big world has recently become bigger over the last two thousand years and the biological longevity plan of the Forex Trader must face these new challenges of dealing with a more complicated world flooded with much more information.

Within this complicated binary and digital world the Forex trader faces several continuous health issues that rises form the very nature of leading a sedentary lifestyle based upon a diet what is almost entirely processed and carbohydrate. In comparison to the early hunter-gatherers the modern Forex trader has a lifestyle which is not honed to surviving in the natural world but in a world that is thousands of times more complicated and therefore more potent with stress-related issues that affect the human body. Twenty thousand years ago a hunter-gatherer would face a mountain lion or perhaps a wild boar and learn to survive out in the wild with minimum shelter and warmth as some of the factors that may induce stress. Yet, twenty thousand years ago our fore-fathers would not accumulate health issues of hyper-tension, diabetes, insomnia, irritability, indigestion and a whole range of debilitating illnesses that could affect the quality of life.

Trading the markets and maintaining mental alertness over several hours per day cannot be measured to the stress of stalking a small mammal like a rabbit with patience in the field. The biology of man has changed over time and the chemical composition of the human body under duress today cannot be compared to the biology of our early hunter ancestor. In an unfriendly and competitive world it therefore becomes imperative for the Forex Trader to seek a balance in order to re-create some of the driving energy that characterized the prowess of the early human hunter with his skills in survival.
 

Proper diet, exercise and meditation help the modern Forex Trader to get back in touch with his genetic ancestral instinct to make up the complete trader working at optimum performance.
