Four questions worth sitting with.

You know your risk rules. So why do you still overrisk after a loss?

You've passed an evaluation before. So why can't you reach payout consistently?

You know trading psychology inside out. So why do you still overtrade or impulse trade?

You know your strategy inside out, you've seen it play out a hundred times. So why does it fail in the real market?

We're not going to answer these for you here. That's the work.

What happens in a session.

Both of us are in every session. Not just the first one.

01

Deep History

We take your history: childhood, adolescence, adulthood. The moments that still feel loaded even when they seem to have nothing to do with trading. Alongside it, assessments: personality, identity, projective. Together they map your patterns before we look at a single trade.

02

Locating the Resistance

Your history and assessments point us to the area of resistance: the unprocessed memory or emotion still driving the pattern. A trade is decided in milliseconds, before you're consciously choosing anything. That's the layer we're working at.

03

Working the Pattern

We work that area directly in every session after, alongside the trading fundamentals: strategy, RR, win rate, execution. Both tracks, together, because one without the other doesn't hold.

No fixed script. No generic protocol. What we find in one session carries into the next.

Two of us. One trades. One is the psychologist.

Trader & Cofounder

I've been in this loop myself. I trade proprietary capital, and I'm completing an MA in Psychology. This work sits where those two meet.

MA Psychology, Chandigarh University
Funded prop trader: Apex Trader Funding ($100K) and Alpha Capital Group ($100K, 13% profit target passed)
Clinical training: Dr. Nitin Sethi (Consultant Psychiatrist), case observation; Japneet Bakhshi Clinic, ICD-11 diagnostic formulation, psychotherapeutic technique.

I'm not here to teach you how to trade. I'm here to figure out why you can't execute what you already know.

Psychologist & Cofounder

Behavioral loops are not character flaws. They have names, origins, and exit points. That's the clinical side of this work.

MA Psychology, Chandigarh University
BSc Mathematics, Delhi University
Clinical training: private psychology practice. Assessments, therapeutic session work, behavioural interventions with case documentation and outcome tracking.
Areas of focus: counselling psychology, behavioural interventions, trading psychology.

The gap between knowing and doing isn't a willpower problem. It's a pattern problem.

We're full right now.

Both of us are in every session, so we only take a small number of traders at a time. The waitlist is how you get in. When a spot opens, we write to you first.

Your first session is still free when it starts: sixty minutes, both of us, no charge. We use it to understand how you trade and what you expect from this. You use it to decide whether we're the right people for the work.

Questions we actually get asked.

No. This is performance coaching, the same approach used by elite athletes and top tier performers. We do not diagnose or treat clinical conditions. We identify behavioral patterns and build protocols to interrupt them. If you present clinical mental health needs, we refer you appropriately.
Most approaches stop at discipline: follow your rules, control your emotions. That's surface level. If the pattern underneath is never addressed, the advice doesn't stick. We work at the source, not the surface.
If you've had stretches of consistency, or passed a phase of an evaluation before, the problem isn't ability. Ability and execution are different systems. We work on execution.
That depends on the pattern. Some traders feel a shift after one session. Others need four or more. The first session, which is free, is enough to know if this is the right work for you.
We talk about that once the first session is done and we both know whether the work fits. We don't quote a price to someone we haven't met.
Not right now. Both of us are in every session, so we only take a small number of traders at a time. Join the waitlist and we'll write to you in order, when a spot opens.
