Most traders focus on charts and indicators, but long-term success in the Australian sharemarket depends on far more than technical signals.In this episode of Talking Trading, Louise Bedford is joined by Wall Street veteran Eddie Z, who brings nearly four decades of experience across multiple market cycles. Eddie shares what surviving the crashes of 2000, 2008, and 2020 taught him about trading psychology, risk management, and the importance of disciplined trading systems.The conversation explores how mindset, system design, and trading technology work together to support consistent execution. Eddie explains why many traders undermine their results with poor tools, slow setups, or emotional decision-making – and how a structured, professional approach helps traders stay aligned with their plan.If you’re focused on building systematic trading habits, improving execution, and developing the mindset required for long-term performance, this episode offers practical insights shaped by real market experience rather than theory.----------------------------------------------------------Tired of feeling like the market has the upper hand?
