Trade At Your Best Trading Psychology Course
Do you ever.. Get out of winning trades early? Fail to cut your losses? Not pull the trigger on set-ups? Overtrade? Let your ego get in the way of your profits by wanting to be right? Trade too big, or too small? Suffer from FOMO? Trade in revenge after a loss? Struggle to cope with a run of losses? Get overconfident after a run of winners?
You are not alone.
These are common challenges that even experienced institutional traders face, and ones that I have helped many traders to overcome over the last 15 years in my work as a trader performance coach with some of the world’s top trading talent.
The best traders know that successful trading requires both the development of a winning methodology and a winning mindset.
Many private traders spend a great deal of time and effort looking for and developing their method, but often fail to spend sufficient time and effort working on and developing their mindset.
Developing a winning mindset is the key to trading with confidence, consistency and discipline.
I have developed the ‘Trade At Your Best’ trading psychology course to teach private traders the mindset and mental skills that are required to succeed in the markets, to share the knowledge, insights and techniques that I use with my own institutional trading clients.
'Steve has an excellent and insightful understanding of the human mind and how it responds to the stresses of trading. I found his counselling and suggestions consistently added value and gave me greater focus to concentrate on my trading as I could ring fence and remove unnecessary thought patterns under his guidance.’
