Welcome Traders!

Most traders struggle and eventually give up or blow out their trading accounts. During their initial encounter with the markets, most traders center their attention almost exclusively on indicators and technical skills. Although learning the technical skills is vital, technical skill alone is not enough. Understanding your personal psychology and how it interacts with the market, along with learning the skills needed to master the craft of trading and the skills needed to protect yourself from poor trading behavior are just as vital.

Trading Psychology Challenges

Are you interested in developing a robust performing edge that you can count on no matter how the market behaves?

Would you like to:

• Think and act like a successful trader, able to pull the trigger at the right time and follow a well thought out plan rather than trading your distracting thoughts and emotions?
• Finally free yourself of letting losers run and cutting winners short?
• Gain consistency in your trading so that you can repeat your successful trades over and over again?
• Stop overtrading?
• Step up size when appropriate without feeling overwhelmed by fear?
• Take your trading to the next level?

If your answer to any of these questions is yes, you are in the right place. Contact us for a free consultation to see how we can help you develop the mental game you need to trade successfully.

Trading Psychology for Consistent Trading Performance

Dr. Gary is trained as a clinical and sport/human performance psychologist. He is also an active trader in the S&P e-minis and stocks. As a trader, trading psychologist, and educator, he helps traders overcome poor trading behavior and develop a sound, consistent trading performance. Dr. Gary works with traders to clarify their strengths and limitations and create a process to engage the market more safely and consistently with guidelines and rules specific to the individual trader's characteristics and situation.

Adapting to the Process of Trading

A primary focus is helping the trader to alter their mindset so that attention is centered on the process of trading rather than trade results. This involves a probabilistic approach to the markets and engages the trader in refining trade selection and trade management practices through procedures used by experts across all performance fields--from Olympic athletes to surgeons, concert musicians, and successful traders.

Developing Confidence Using Cutting-Edge Behavioral Science

Dr. Gary guides traders in working towards constructive goals pertinent to the trader's growth. Progress is measured to attainment. As goals are met, vital trader skills are built, and the trader's confidence improves markedly. Dr. Gary applies cutting edge, well-researched methods in cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, and performance psychologies to help the trader maintain concentration and composure during trading, even when the heat runs high. These highly learnable skills allow the trader to focus on executing trade management actions rather than on distracting thoughts and emotions that hijack the trader's best intentions.

Becoming Your Own Trading Coach

Dr. Gary teaches traders to keep and look for patterns in their personal data. Developing mastery over trading occurs through specific self-assessment and continuous improvement strategies. Throughout the work, Dr. Gary teaches the trader to become their own trading coach, eventually bringing the need for a trading psychologist to a close.

Achieving Your Trading Psychology Edge

Dr. Gary works with motivated individuals who want to learn to think and act like a successful trader. He helps traders develop their personal trading performance into a reliable market edge. He works with traders to overcome fears and blocks, and to end the unnecessary struggle with emotions. Dr. Gary helps those who have the desire to learn and apply the skills and techniques that help them realize their potential.
