From The Only Trading Psychologist In The World With This 15-Year Track Record:

Here's how to…

Stop Over-Trading, Revenge Trading, Impulse Trading, FOMO, Self-Sabotage, Blowing Up Accounts, Missed Trades, Early Profit Taking, and more…

3 Steps to take:

Step 1:

Stop hoping. Stop dreaming. Tomorrow will not be different… unless you do something truly different.

Step 2:

Accept this fact: despite what you have been led to believe…

The hidden destroyer of your trading profits is NOT weak discipline.

After 15 years of specializing in helping very stuck traders — traders with years-long, sometimes decades-long trading psychology challenges — here is what I have found.
It likely that you do indeed have discipline, probably even strong discipline, in your work, career or business. Or perhaps you have good discipline in your workouts or diet, your personal life, or your spiritual life.

Yet, when it comes to trading, it is likely that your discipline flies out the window. Here's why:

In trading, you are going to lose – somewhat frequently!

The hard truth is, you will lose 1 out of every 3, 4 or 5 trades. (give or take)

These losses - and for some traders, their wins – will trigger or activate negative subconscious programs:

These programs, once activated, unleash a flood of powerful, almost uncontrollable negative emotions.

Which of these negative emotions have seriously damaged your trading results?

These programs and negative emotions are far stronger than your discipline. Here's the proof:

Take a look at your trading statements – and answer these questions: 

  • How much damage has been caused because you didn’t have the patience to wait for your setups?
  • How much damage has been caused because you move stops, remove stops,
    don’t set stops, take early profits, become impulsive, over trade, revenge trade, or otherwise break your rules?
  • How many accounts have you blown up?
  • How much damage have you inflicted on your finances because you didn’t keep your promises to yourself… or your spouse?
  • How much profit have you left on the table?
  • How much pain have you suffered because you couldn’t accept a loss – and simply walk away?
  • How much?
So what is the solution that will finally give you control when you trade?

Step 3:

Find and erase the subconscious programs and emotions that are ruining your trading account.

That’s exactly what my proprietary “Delete and Restore Control” protocol is designed to do.

I have developed this method during 36 years of private consulting with clients who had serious challenges.

First: Early in a session with me, you will measure a major, account-damaging negative emotion, like:

Anger or revenge after a series of losses, FOMO, greed, impatience, fear, hatred of losing… whatever is sabotaging your account:

You will measure that negative emotion on a scale of 0-10. (10 being the worst.)
Those emotions have caused real damage to your trading.

And if you’re being honest with yourself — at times, these negative emotions have hurt other areas of your life as well.

Which is why fixing these negative emotions will change far more than just your trading.

Next: My method is designed to reduce, and then eliminate that negative emotion.

At first, my goal is to is designed to reduce the intensity of that negative emotion – from a strongly negative 6,7, 8, 9… to a manageable 2, or 3. This is a good start.

But my delete and restore control method does not stop there.

The final steps of my Delete and Restore Control protocol are designed to…

ERASE and DELETE your negative emotion down to ZERO – down to NOTHING. To your 100% satisfaction.

That’s right: anger – gone. Fear – gone. Revenge – gone.

And you will not have to take my word for it, because you will…

Test the results - On the spot. No waiting, no hoping. Just instant proof that something very big has changed inside of you.

For example: Let’s say you measured your anger, frustration or fear:

Most of my clients start a session with a very high number – usually 7, 8, 9 or 10.

Once I complete the delete and restore control process, I will ask you to again measure the anger, frustration, or fear. With the following intended result:

When you try to measure your anger, frustration or fear, when you try to feel it… much to your surprise…that negative emotion will be gone.

NOT merely controlled. NOT merely Reduced. GONE.

That is my goal for you. Nothing less.

As you will soon see when you watch the video reviews and emails below.

Watch how stuck traders turned their trading around

Hello Steve, How are you. Wishing you best of health and happiness. I am doing good. I was thinking to write thanks note to you but couldn’t find any words to express myself. In fact, today also I don’t have those special words to thank you enough that you changed my thinking process. Whenever I trade and even looks at the chart, or as a matter of fact in my personal life, I remember your each and every word that has changed my life for best. I was stuck so long, and trapped in vicious cycle in trading of losing profits, revenge trading, anger, greed, fear, not cutting losses quickly, breaking rules etc. Now, I am consistently profitable in trading for the last several months, and overcame obstacles in my trading. I am able to achieve this milestone because of you. I trade in deep peace, enjoy every moment of my life and growing every day. Thank you so much Steve. Appreciate it. Pran ______

Hi Steve, for the first time I’m actually comfortable losing trades! In the next session I’d like to look at entries and my decisions to take or not take a position. So I’m still settling into this new ‘attitude’ and it’s not necessary to fix something urgently.

Steve,

 

I hope you are in great spirits, health, and wellbeing as I send this message.

 

You showed up for me in two of the most vulnerable, lower energy moments of my life within my realms as a trader and my grandfather’s caretaker.

 

And the latter you didn’t even have to do, as we had completed the initial work. But you did it because you have a massive heart and similar experience that proved very helpful.

 

Thanks to you, my relationship to challenging situations has completely changed.

 

I find so much peace with my primary strategy.

Hey Steve,


What I believe has really helped me turn the corner.


  1. You helped me learn about how my brain works and how I think, and how emotion and thoughts can lead to actions in the market.
  2. You helped me develop a log to which I can track my trades, therefore track my thoughts and emotions to see patterns.
  3. You helped me to SLOW down, I still have to work on this, but I have noticed a massive difference in my overall behavior, stress management, demeanor and how I react to less than desire situations, which has benefited me SO MUCH outside of the trading room.
  4. You helped me realize how my brain works, it’s not bad the way I am, it just didn’t work as a trader, so I chose to make some changes.
  5. You helped me realize how big my ego was, and how badly I hated seeing it damaged.

Steve,


I want to say again, thanks!


Not sure all what’s happening, but I am feeling deep changes. Little trigger, “is it to good to be true?” but I have to say I am feeling things I haven’t felt in at least 40 years.

 
Freedoms, emotions (good, from my childhood, interactions with life). I don’t know how you do it, not sure I really care (other than my natural curiosity).

 
I have spent 40 yrs trying to figure out how to solve so many of these issues, all have been futile. You are delivering on what you promised.

 
Thanks

Steve,


Hey, I wanted to share something short of fabulous!


A while ago I took a personality test. This was when I started trading and a friend recommended identifying triggers on personality and how to cope with them. The test is from https://www.personal.__________


The initial test was taken in 2013 and some values were terrible. In the test 50 means average and 0 would be a very weird person that has none of that personality trait, 100 would be the opposite. For instance one of the items that were shocking were scores on Anger. At that time i got 87 which means i was super angry.


Remember i told you about my nootropic yogurts? Well,, in 2019 after months on the oxytocin yogurt, I repeated the test. anger this time went down to 49, so more or less normal person.


Well….. and i just took it yesterday after “Steve”…. must say i have not taken any yogurt for over a month, almost 2 months now. So these results are just you! On anger something amazing happened: 18!


I know you did an amazing job, and will be grateful with you forever. But the engineer in me needed some data! lol.

Hey Steve,

 

Woke up today feeling much better. I’m able to think about my sister in a much more positive way, and a lot of the hatred and anger isn’t present anymore.

 

I truly cannot thank you enough for spending that time with me, as well as all of our other time because going back and reading through our notes has proven to be extremely helpful.

I would like to give you an update before the next session.


Let me tell you, the last 3 sessions have been a simply life-changing experience. In the beginning, I did not expect this much transformation. Actually, I was a little bit skeptical about the whole program. However, after last week, it was just an eye-opener for me. I will bore you with the details during the Wednesday session.

Steve, I had such a powerful experience working with you that I wanted to put it into writing.

 

Before our sessions, I felt stuck both in my career and my marriage. You were highly recommended by a family member who is a trader, and he described you as exceptionally intuitive, able to identify root causes and help resolve them.

 

Despite being a high performer with a good life and strong spiritual grounding, I wasn’t happy. I struggled with feeling “not enough,” battled imposter syndrome, and carried deep negative emotions that made me overly self-critical. I often sought external validation, especially from my husband. This didn’t align with the successful, capable woman I knew I was.

 

I was constantly overthinking and living too much in the future.

 

From our very first session, things began to change for me.

 

When you started to help me release my negative emotions, I was surprised at how quickly they began to fade, even though I had heard about your method and results. Negative emotions I’d held onto for decades started to decrease rapidly, and then, they disappeared. When you asked me to test the method by trying to bring those negative emotions back, I was afraid they would return. But they didn’t. The peace of mind I was left with after your method amazed me.

 

Additionally, I want to thank you for the tools you taught me.

 

When you showed me how to start my day the right way, I couldn’t believe how wrong my previous approach to performing, my job, and my happiness had been. I used to wake up in performance mode—head active, heart shut down—thinking only about what I needed to accomplish.

 

You taught me what to focus on so that I could set the day up for both peace and high performance. In the past, I thought I had to choose between peace of mind and success, never realizing they could coexist. Now they do.

 

My days now begin with a sense of calm, purpose, and emotional elevation, rather than just a cold checklist. I’ve learned to enjoy performing at a high level while being present in the moment, not just focusing on results. You showed me how to perform from my heart, which was profoundly meaningful.

 

Because of what you did for me, I now move through life with more peace, lightness, and joy. I’m grateful for how easy you made it to talk with you, and for being non-judgmental about the things I used to harshly judge myself for.

 

I also thank you for not being a clock-watcher, like so many professionals. You truly care. I deeply appreciated the times you extended our sessions when I needed extra help.
