Trading discipline, priced honestly.
Four years on the phones at Fidelity, $75,000 of my own tuition paid to the market, and one conclusion: the leak is almost never the analysis. These are the notes I wish someone had handed me — no signals, no promises, and every loss disclosed.
-
The most expensive trade you take
It isn't the big loss — it's the trade eleven minutes after it. The anatomy of a revenge trade, and why friction beats willpower.
-
What breaking your own rules costs — in dollars
The one number every trader avoids calculating, and how to make it conservative enough to be un-arguable.
-
Grade the process, not the P/L
A green week that broke your rules is a loss that hasn't arrived yet. The whole score formula — no black box.
-
Your trading journal is lying to you
Not the numbers — the missing trades. Selection bias, and the two fixes that close the gap.
Everything these notes describe — the gates, the cooldown wall, the discipline score, the rule-break accounting — is live in the app, free.
