Cory Mitchell

Cory Mitchell is a former contributor who wrote about 200 in-depth articles for BinaryOptions.net between 2013 and 2014, focusing on practical, chart-backed techniques that readers can verify and apply themselves.

Cory entered the financial markets in 2004 and spent almost a decade honing discretionary and systematic techniques across equities, futures, and foreign exchange before turning his focus to binary options in 2010.

He believes in hands-on trading setups – developing and testing price action and momentum strategies, emphasizing discipline and patience as core trading skills.

Many of his articles contain step-by-step breakdowns of turnover management, entry/exit rules, and risk-control checkpoints. He wants to make sure that traders understand the strategies he explains rather than just know how to use them.

He also makes a point of reminding traders that bonuses, leverage, and high-frequency signals can pressure them into over-trading, which increases risk and can cause losses.

Discipline, Risk, and Lifestyle Integration

Cory teaches that trading is as much a psychological discipline as it is a statistical pursuit; patience and emotional neutrality, forged through countless trades, ultimately eclipse raw analytical skill. He likens the routine of waiting for high-probability conditions to the meditative focus of distance running or rock climbing.

Markets, in his view, reward those who can detach identity from short-term outcomes, maintain an objective process, and remain mentally agile through shifting volatility regimes.

Cory also stresses balanced living: marathon runner, rock-climber, golfer, volleyball and poker enthusiast – proof that trading shouldn’t consume your life.
