REHABILITATION
TRADER REHABILITATION
Eight or twelve weeks to get back the trading you already know how to do.
Weekly sessions, one target at a time, and practice between sessions graded to what you can actually hold. Three people at a time. It starts with a thirty minute call.
IS FOR
WHO IT IS FOR
Two kinds of trader, and the work is the same underneath.
You know your setups.
You can explain exactly what you should have done, usually within a few seconds of not doing it. The stop gets moved, the winner gets cut at forty percent of the target, the valid setup gets skipped.
You can make money.
Good weeks get handed back. Size creeps up after a strong run, the account carries the bills, and there is no real plan for the capital. That is this program too.
If you do not have a method yet, this is the wrong order. That is different work, and it is what the Development Program is for. Tell me and I will point you there first.
WEEKS RUN
HOW THE WEEKS RUN
It moves when you do, not when the calendar does.
Intake, evaluation and a written report
An intake packet, a sixty to seventy five minute evaluation, and a written report on how you currently function under financial pressure. It is yours either way.
Your Plan
Three goals, in your words, and nothing else for now. Where each one stands today and where we expect it at the end, written down on day one so neither of us can move it later.
One session, one target, one sheet
Sixty minutes, recorded if you want to rewatch it. One target per session. Between sessions you get a practice sheet with an easier, standard and harder level, and we pick the one you can hold this week. When something needs repeating, it comes back at a different level or under different conditions.
Contact that steps back on purpose
Early on you send your practice in often and hear back often. As the weeks go on we check in less, on a schedule you know in advance, because the goal is a skill that holds without anybody watching.
Ninety minutes, and a plan you run alone
We read everything back together. You leave with the few practices you keep doing, a capital plan, and a relapse plan written in your own words for the day an old pattern comes back.
The eight week program is not a shorter twelve. It covers the same ground faster and ends before the transfer work, which is where a skill gets tested across different market conditions. If that matters for you, I will tell you on the call which length fits.
POINTS
THE FOUR POINTS
There are four points where it will feel like it is not working.
You get these in writing on day one, with the weeks next to them. A dip you were warned about is information. A dip nobody mentioned feels like proof that you are the problem.
You notice it and still cannot stop it.
That feels worse than not noticing. It is also the step everything else is built on.
You are trading less.
It can feel like paying for nothing. Fewer, better reps is the design.
Something you had stopped comes back.
Usually in a week that is otherwise fine. Conditions changed, which is why we change them on purpose.
We step back.
Less checking, fewer replies. It is planned, and it is how this ends with you not needing us.
MEASURED
HOW IT IS MEASURED
By what it takes for the behavior to happen. Never by money.
A green day can come from a broken process, and a red day can be the best rep you have had all month. So every goal is scored on five levels.
Not available
It does not happen yet, even with help.
With support
It happens when somebody reminds you that morning.
With changes
It happens with the size down or the money hidden.
With effort
It happens at full conditions, and it costs you something.
Reliable
It happens without you having to think about it.
And how sure you are
A short self check at the start and at weeks four, eight and twelve, set beside what you actually do. The gap between the two is usually where the work is.
TAKE HOME
WHAT YOU TAKE HOME
Paper you keep, not a login you lose.
Your Plan. After the first session. What you told us in your own words, your three goals, where each one is today and where we expect it at the end, and the four points above.
Practice sheets. One page per practice, with three levels and a place to write down what happened. You build up your own set over the weeks.
A capital plan. What the money is for, your risk per trade, loss limits, what happens after a good day, and when money comes out of the account. Your numbers, written by you.
A relapse plan. Written in the last session, in your words, for the day an old pattern shows up again.
TRT Compass is included when it fits how you trade, which we decide together at the start.
COSTS
WHAT IT COSTS
Two lengths, and you can split the payment.
Eight weeks
Eight weekly sessions, the last one ninety minutes, with the evaluation, Your Plan, the practice sheets, the capital plan and the relapse plan.
Twelve weeks
Twelve weekly sessions, the last one ninety minutes, the same materials, and the transfer work the eight weeks cannot fit.
Already had the evaluation? If you start the program within thirty days of it, the $350 comes off your first payment.
I take three people at a time. It is what I can do properly alongside building, trading and a family. If the program is full when you ask, I will tell you when the next place opens.
IS NOT
WHAT THIS IS NOT
Education built on rehabilitation, not treatment.
Nobody here is being treated or diagnosed, and there are no signals, entries or trade calls in it. What I use is rehabilitation as a method of education: you change what the task is asking until a person can meet it, then you raise it.
And some of what shows up around trading is not really about trading. If we get there I will be honest with you about it, and help you find somebody properly equipped for that part.
START
HOW TO START
A thirty minute call. Bring the specific thing.
"I moved my stop three times on Tuesday and I still do not know why" is something I can work with. If I think this would help you, I will say so. If I think it would not, I will say that instead, and it costs you nothing to have asked.
