Unit 4 · Level 1 · Know thyself
The honest self-audit
You already own a psychology dataset: your own trade history. Not the P&L: the decisions. Your five worst trades will show the same demon wearing different tickers. Auditing them stings (that's loss aversion again), which is why almost nobody does it, and why it works.
Free to play. No ads, no token, no account needed to start.
What you get asked
Order the honest self-audit
Feelings first, rules last: the order matters. You can't design a guardrail until you've admitted what actually drove the click.
In the audit, what are you actually hunting for?
Markets caused the price moves; you caused the entries, sizes, and exits. Only the second list repeats, and only the second list is fixable.
Why do your worst trades teach more than your best ones?
Winners blend skill and luck into a warm blur; disasters preserve the exact moment discipline broke. Painful tape is honest tape.
An honest audit grades your decisions, not just your ___.
Good decisions sometimes lose and bad ones sometimes win. Grading the process instead of the result is what separates review from regret.
You find the same demon behind 4 of your 5 worst trades. That's…
A concentrated weakness is a cheap fix: one rule, aimed precisely. The next lesson turns this finding into your demon profile. 🐜
