Psychology

I score sessions on process adherence, not PnL. A profitable session with rule breaks still gets a low score. A losing session with full compliance gets a high score. This reframing reduced emotional overreaction and made weekly review more objective.

When frustration spikes, I run a 5-minute reset: step away, breathing cadence, and one-sentence intent for the next action. If I cannot define intent clearly, I do not re-enter. This protocol keeps me from making fast, low-quality decisions under pressure.
