"To make your trading dreams a reality, change the Dreamer into a Realist." TRADING PSYCHOLOGY COACHING PROGRAM
INITIAL ASSESSMENT
ENHANCING EMOTIONAL STABILITY
You are likely to be emotionally susceptible to one of three primary triggers: 1) Losing; 2) Being Wrong, or 3) Missing Out. When you sign up, in our very first session we will identify the particular trigger that limits your trading success and we will build your Coaching Plan around neutralizing it. I also specialize in analyzing the biochemical factors that may be working to destabilize you emotionally.
REINFORCING A CONFIDENT MINDSET
If you are Trading Not To Lose, you will not be able to stay in a winning trade, so you will be a Breakeven Trader, or worse. Ironically, in each case you will create the very thing you were trying to avoid. We will work together to correct these sagotaging imperatives using proprietary techniques. MASTERING YOUR TRADING EDGE This is a recent screenshot from my own futures trading account during a particularly volatile period in the S&P 500. It illustrates that consistency of trading results has little to do with market conditions. This screenshot is a trade analysis for this 3-day period. The platform is Tradestation, but I also work with Ninja and other platforms, as well. The annualized return for this sample period is 769%. Your results will differ. By the way, if your trading plan changes every week, then check yourself for a condition called Adult ADD that I believe affects many struggling traders. DECONSTRUCTING UNCONSCIOUS IMPERATIVES For example, one client grew up feeling and believing that he had to be "the best." At the age of 13 he was in the top 1% of amateur players in his sport worldwide. He went on to a highly successful career as an investment banker. When he retired, however, and began to trade for his own account, he found that he was so driven by his inner 'Pusher' that trading became an ordeal. When he had a few losses, he felt like a total failure. He became risk averse and would not take the trades that his system indicated. When he missed out on excellent trades, however, he became depressed and then angry. In the depressed or angry state, he traded worse. In the end, he became his own worst enemy. This client had to learn to accept himself and take losses in stride. We accomplished that goal in less than two weeks by applying his clear understanding of sports psychology to his trading. Whatever your tendencies toward "self-sabotage," I'm confident that together we can find a solution quickly.

Losing, Being Wrong and Missing Out stimulate 
There is no one right way to trade. However, you need a plan and you need to apply it consistently. If you have underestimated the difficulty of trading, however, you may not have developed a professional-grade trading plan or the tools and risk management techniques to properly apply it. Defining your "edge" is crucial. If you don't have a well-defined plan, your trading is likely to be overly discretionary. Discretionary trading leads to an emotional guessing game that causes stress and losses. When you sign up we will go over your Trading Plan to make sure it is professional and we will improve it, if necessary.
