Trading Psychology

Trading Psychology

Behaviour, discipline and the mechanics of following a plan

Trading Psychology is about execution. It treats discipline as a system design problem: if a rule is repeatedly broken, the rule, the environment or the feedback loop needs changing — not the trader's willpower.

The book covers FOMO, revenge trading, over-trading, hesitation, attachment to open positions and the recovery routine after a losing streak.

What readers will learn

  • How to spot the behaviour that precedes your worst trades
  • Pre-market and post-market routines that take minutes
  • How to design interruptions for impulsive entries
  • How to journal emotions in a measurable way
  • How to structure a recovery plan after drawdown
