About This Trading Psychology Course
Across 24 professionally structured modules, this programme — created and presented by Sachin Kotecha — provides a professional education in trading psychology.

The course is designed for clarity and real-world application, with an emphasis on disciplined process rather than outcomes or performance claims.
Why Trading Psychology Matters
Markets create uncertainty and pressure, and those conditions can amplify emotional decision-making.

- Introduction To The Trading Psychology MasterclassThe Trading Psychology Masterclass is a transformative journey into the mindset behind consistent trading success. It reveals how emotions, habits, and self-awareness shape every decision, helping traders replace fear, greed, and impulse with discipline, confidence, and composure. Designed for all experience levels, it teaches you to master yourself first — so you can trade with clarity, control, and true professionalism.1
- Module 1 – The Mind of a Trader: Understanding Yourself FirstThis module explores the foundation of trading psychology — self-awareness. It reveals how emotions, beliefs, and personal history shape trading behaviour and performance. Learners discover that success begins not with market knowledge but with mastering the internal dialogue, emotional triggers, and mindset patterns that influence every decision.1
- Module 2 – The Psychology of Risk and RewardHere we examine how the human brain perceives risk and reward, showing why traders often act irrationally under pressure. The module teaches how to manage fear and excitement, align risk tolerance with strategy, and build emotional resilience to make logical, process-based decisions in uncertain markets.1
- Module 3 – Fear, Greed, and the Emotional Cycle of TradingThis module unpacks the emotional forces that drive markets and individual behaviour. It guides traders through recognising and neutralising fear and greed, understanding their cyclical influence on market sentiment, and developing the ability to act rationally when others are ruled by emotion.1
- Module 4 – The Science of Decision-Making Under PressureStudents learn how the brain responds to stress and uncertainty, and why logic often breaks down in volatile conditions. This session teaches practical techniques to improve decision quality under pressure through awareness, structure, and physiological control.1
- Module 5 – Cognitive Biases and Trading ErrorsThis module reveals how invisible mental shortcuts — biases like confirmation, anchoring, and recency — distort judgment and cause costly mistakes. Traders learn to identify these biases, counteract them with data-driven analysis, and build habits of objective thinking.1
- Module 6 – The Role of Confidence, Doubt, and OvertradingLearners explore the fine balance between self-belief and restraint. The module exposes how both overconfidence and insecurity lead to overtrading and emotional decisions, while teaching how to cultivate grounded, process-based confidence through consistency and discipline.1

This module shows how to transform good intentions into reliable habits, create routines that anchor focus, and design systems that enforce consistency across all trades, even during emotional volatility.1
- Module 9 – Ego, Impulse, and Self-Sabotage in TradingHere, the spotlight is on ego — the hidden driver of revenge trading, denial, and emotional turbulence. The module helps traders dismantle self-sabotaging habits by replacing ego-based reactions with humility, detachment, and self-awareness.1
- Module 10 – Developing a Professional Trader’s MindsetThis session transitions traders from an amateur to a professional mentality. It focuses on accountability, process orientation, and emotional neutrality, showing how consistent thinking and behaviour create consistent results over time.1
- Module 11 – Patience, Timing, and Emotional Timing WindowsPatience is revealed as a skill, not a personality trait. This module explores emotional timing, teaching traders how to wait for optimal setups, align with market rhythm, and avoid the psychological traps of impatience and overanticipation.1
- Module 12 – The Neuroscience of Trading BehaviourStudents uncover the brain mechanisms behind decision-making, emotion, and stress. By understanding how dopamine, cortisol, and neural wiring affect behaviour, traders learn to reprogram habits and strengthen cognitive control for rational performance.1
- Module 13 – Flow State and Peak Performance in TradingThis module teaches traders how to achieve “flow” — the mental state of total focus and effortless execution. It explains how to structure routines, environments, and mental triggers to reach this optimal zone of concentration and performance.1
- Module 14 – The Psychology of Loss, Recovery, and ResilienceLosses are reframed as feedback, not failure. This module helps traders build resilience by understanding the emotional and physiological impact of loss, developing recovery systems, and learning to bounce back stronger and more balanced.1
