Welcome! I am Dr. Van K. Tharp. I am the founder and president of the Van Tharp Institute and am regarded as an international leader among professional trading coaches and consultants.


I have been helping others become the best trader or investor that they can be since 1982. I offer unique learning strategies, and my techniques for producing great traders are some of the most effective in the field. Over the years I have helped traders overcome problems in areas of system development and trading psychology, and success-related issues such as self-sabotage.


To learn more about me, my personal newsletters and my trading game – please visit me at the Van Tharp Institute at www.iitm.com.

I am also a regular contributor on the Trading Education website. For more of my insights, you can sign up for their free weekly trading newsletter at www.TradingEducation.com.

Psychological Rule 2: Success Requires Commitment

My second psychological rules is that success requires commitment. If you are 100% committed to success then the universe will help you create miracles to get it. But if you are not committed, then you will find lots of distractions that will seem like major roadblocks.

I've seen this over and over again with my client and I won't acept someone in our supertrader program that I do not believe is committed. I know when they have it that they succeed in the program and if they don't there will be no success.
