I have said it a thousand times: Trading is 20% strategy and 80% psychology.
You can have the perfect plan. You can have the levels marked to the tick. You can know exactly what should happen. But if your mind is filled with fear, hesitation, or the impulse to gamble, that plan is worthless.
For the past year, I have been working personally with
Nathan Gist
, a certified hypnotherapist and the founder of Unshakable Trader. He specializes in one thing: rewiring the subconscious minds of traders to eliminate self-sabotage.
Today, I’m sharing a conversation we recorded that dives deep into the mental game.
The Missing Link in Your Trading
Nathan isn’t just a therapist; he understands the specific hell that traders go through. In this episode, we discuss the problems that every single one of us faces eventually:
The hesitation at the trigger: Why you freeze when the perfect setup appears.
Revenge trading: The subconscious trigger that makes you want to “fight back” against the market.
The “Upper Limit” problem: Why we subconsciously self-destruct right after hitting a new equity high.
My Experience
I don’t just endorse Nathan; I use his services. Working with him has been a game-changer for my own mental clarity and discipline. We talk about that journey in this video—how hypnosis isn’t “magic,” but rather a tool for reprogramming the deep-seated habits that hold us back.
If you have ever felt like you are fighting yourself while you trade, you need to watch this.
