Performance coaching for prop firm and futures traders who know their edge. Both of us, every session.
60 minutes, video call, both of us. Tell us what's going on — we'll reach out personally.
You took a perfect setup. Then cut it early because something felt off.
You moved your stop loss. You watched yourself do it. You couldn't stop.
You've blown evaluations you were easily skilled enough to pass.
You've read Trading in the Zone twice. You can quote Mark Douglas. Nothing changed.
These aren't discipline failures. They're patterns. And patterns have a source.
Most trading psychology addresses symptoms. Journaling, meditation, mindset courses. These are discipline-level interventions. They treat the branch, not the root. The problem keeps growing back because the source was never addressed.
If you've started to wonder whether any trading psychology actually works, that's a reasonable conclusion based on your evidence.
The problem isn't that psychology doesn't work. The problem is that most approaches never go deep enough to find what's actually driving the behavior.
Both of us are there. Every session, not just the first one. One of you, two of us. That's the shape.
You tell us what's been happening since you booked. The trade, the moment, what you did that you swore you wouldn't. We listen without interrupting. Not to be polite. To hear the shape of the loop, not just its content.
Once the loop is visible, we follow it back. Behavioral loops have starting points, and the starting point is almost never about trading. It might be about something that happened a long time ago, in a moment that had nothing to do with markets. We find it together. Slowly. With care.
Once you can see the loop and where it comes from, the loop loses some of its grip. Not because we gave you a rule to follow. Because the next time it surfaces in your trading, you're no longer alone with it. That's the change. It's quieter than people expect.
No homework. No treatment plan. Within twenty-four hours of the session, a short note from us about what we noticed and what stayed with us.
Aayush, co-founderLast May, I lost a thousand dollars on a Friday afternoon and bought three challenges that same weekend trying to fix it. Khushi told me to stop trying to fix the surface. We sat with it for ninety minutes. The session didn't end at a trading rule. It ended at a memory from when I was four years old, and the same shape was in both.
The next time I sat at the chart, the urge was still there. I just wasn't alone with it. That's the work this method does. Not better discipline. Not new rules. Pattern, source, and the moment of being witnessed in it.
I know what the "Challenge Failed" email feels like at 11 PM. I've been through the exact loop this work addresses. I'm not done with this work. I'm in a different relationship with it now.
I trade proprietary capital. I'm also completing an MA in Psychology. The work we do at TradeRoot sits exactly where those two lives meet, because that's where I had to do it on myself first.
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.
I recognized something in what traders describe. The behavioral loops, the patterns repeating despite full awareness of what's happening. These aren't character flaws. They have names, origins, and exit points. That's what the clinical side of this work addresses.
I trained in mathematics before psychology. The analytical lens didn't go away when I changed fields. It shapes how I work with patterns now.
The gap between knowing and doing isn't a willpower problem. It's a pattern problem.
One of us understands the market.
One of us understands the mind.
That combination is the point.
From Freud's foundational insight that behavior is shaped by forces outside conscious awareness, through the neo-Freudian work on identity, relational patterns, and how early experience becomes the template for adult behavior. The origin tracing in our sessions draws directly from this lineage.
Neo-Freudian thinkers extended psychoanalytic work into the territory of how we form our sense of self in relation to others, and how those relational patterns repeat across contexts. A trader's behavior in the market is not separate from who they are. It's an expression of it.
Carl Rogers identified three conditions that make change possible: empathy, unconditional positive regard, and congruence. These aren't techniques we apply. They're the conditions we try to create in every session. The method is clinical. The experience is human.
Aayush and Khushi both hold postgraduate training in psychology. This isn't a framework assembled from books. It's what we were trained in, applied to a specific context where it hasn't been applied before: the trader who already knows how to trade.
Fill out the intake form and tell us what's happening. We'll reach out personally on WhatsApp to talk through whether this is the right fit.
If you're technically skilled but psychologically stuck, this is the moment to come in.
You can journal for a year and still repeat the same mistake, because seeing a pattern and changing it are two different skills.
