I’ve spent years in clinical practice diagnosing and working out why people can’t change behaviour..
Even when they know exactly what they should do.
Traders have the same problem.

End-of-week reflection questions:
What went well this week? (Execution, not outcome)
What pattern showed up repeatedly?
What one thing, if changed, would improve next week most?
Am I closer to my process goals than last week?
This is how improvement becomes systematic.

@MaferdCapital Blaming the prop firms because taking self-accountability and responsibility is hard - Something I see all the time
English
Trader: “Prop firms just want your reset money.”
Same trader: Overtrades after green day, moves stops emotionally, skips review.
The firm isn’t taking your money, you’re gifting it with bad process.

How do you determine A+ Setups?
This is a question I used to never be able to answer until I truly learned how supply and demand worked. Let me show you how I answer this now...

Friday performance review:
5 questions, 10 minutes:
Trades taken vs setups available (selectivity)
Adherence rate (full criteria met)
Most common rule break (the pattern)
Emotional trigger for that break (the cause)
Structural fix for next week (the solution)

Intolerance of uncertainty is a presentation of anxiety
Traders with high intolerance try to eliminate uncertainty through constant monitoring, prediction, or premature action.
But trading is fundamentally uncertain. Learning to tolerate it, not eliminate it, is the adaptation

@risklikemonty Still a better strategy than trendlines 🫣

Your "vulnerable trader" mode might freeze.
Your "angry trader" mode might revenge trade.
This helps because recognising which mode you're in creates choice on what behaviour comes afterwards.
By observing yourself and noting what 'mode' you're in, you can make a choice.
English
There's an approach in 'Schema therapy' that helps traders:
It identifies "modes" - essentially emotional states that trigger predictable behaviour patterns.
English
Before any trade adjustment, ask: "Would I make this same decision if the position were breakeven right now?"
If the answer is no, you're managing emotion, not risk.
Focus on managing yourself instead of the trade.

Social media affects your trading more than you might realize 👇👇

Here's how social media is quietly undermining your trading psychology - And you're more at risk if you're a newer trader Social media trains us, subconsciously, to think about our trading the wrong way. Let me explain:
English
Here's how you build friction:
Identify your most common deviation (moving stops, revenge trading, etc.)
Design one friction rule for that behaviour
Make it non-negotiable for 2 weeks
Track adherence
Adjust friction level as needed
English
Friction also reveals whether you're actually following a process or just reacting.
If you can't wait 10 minutes before acting, that's diagnostic information.
The urge is so strong it can't tolerate a brief delay. That's emotion, not analysis.
English
You can't eliminate emotion in trading. Trying to is solving the wrong problem.
Emotion is predictable output when you're risking capital under uncertainty
The leverage point isn't eliminating the feeling. It's interrupting the transition from feeling to action.
