-* '''Discipline and Consistency''': The ability to adhere strictly to a predetermined trading plan, regardless of short-term market noise or emotional impulses.

+# '''Neutral Point of View (NPOV)''': All claims must be presented factually, attributing viewpoints where necessary, and avoiding language that promotes or disparages any particular trading style or psychological theory.
-* '''Acceptance of Risk''': Recognizing that risk is inherent in trading and developing a framework for managing potential losses within acceptable parameters.
+# '''Verifiability''': Where specific psychological models or studies are referenced, they should ideally be supported by citations to reliable external sources, such as academic papers, established financial literature, or recognized industry publications.
+# '''Clarity and Accessibility''': Content should be written clearly, assuming a reader who has a foundational understanding of futures trading concepts but may be new to the specific psychological topic being discussed. Technical jargon should be explained or linked to relevant articles.
