What Kind of
Trader Are You?
Every trader carries unconscious biases shaped by their personality. Discover your Trader Archetype—and the hidden patterns that are costing you alpha.
FOR TRADERS
You've had months where the ideas were the same quality, the market was readable, and something in your execution compressed anyway. Sizing shrank. Exits came early. Conviction wobbled at exactly the wrong point.
You can't explain the difference between those months and your best ones. It's not discipline. It's not the market.
It's the shadow of the same thing that makes you good. Your edge — unregulated, under specific conditions, turning against you in ways that are invisible in real time.
The pattern is structural. It's identifiable. And once it's named, it stops governing your range. The ceiling you've been performing under isn't skill. It's the edge unseen. Remove it and you access the level that was always available but never fully reached.
25 years in a rates seat. 8 years studying what I couldn't explain from inside it. I name the patterns. You do the rest.
FOR DESK HEADS
You already know who your best people are. You also know the shape of their ceilings — the recurring months that give back too much, the sizing that never quite steps up, the stretch where everything works followed by the quiet compression no one discusses.
You've chalked it up to cycles. It's not cycles. It's structural — and it's specific to each person.
I work with your best people on the one pattern they can't see about themselves. The one that lives inside their edge. The result isn't recovery from problems. It's access to the ceiling above the one they've been operating under — the portion of their capacity that's been structurally unavailable, now unlocked. Quietly. Without disruption.
You don't need me to fix anyone. You need your best people operating at a level they haven't accessed yet. Every month they don't is alpha left on the table.
