In Mastering Trading Stress, author Ari Kiev--a psychiatrist who specializes in stress management and works extensively with traders--offers examples, transcripts of conversations, and personality profiles of real-life traders to illustrate how stress affects their ability to perform at their best. Drawing on his vast experience, Kiev describes a variety of practical techniques that can be used to handle destructive emotions and out-of-control feelings, including his "Most Basic" stress busters, and tells what to do if a breakdown should occur.3 N n$ ]/ e% n1 h2 L$ c
