Sponsored by Pepperstone What can 60 years of combined trading experience teach us about becoming a better trader? I sit down with veteran trader Peter Daniel for a relaxed, honest conversation about why so many traders struggle, what separates those who make progress, and the lessons we've learned over decades in the markets. We cover trading psychology, confidence, discipline, risk management, strategy selection, common mistakes and plenty more. Some things we agree on. Others we see differently! Hopefully, you'll pick up a few useful ideas to apply to your own trading.
Sponsored by Pepperstone What’s the one thing in your trading that, if you improved it, would have an outsized impact on your performance? Revenge trading? Hesitation? Overtrading? Moving stops? Oversizing? Cutting winners too early? In this episode, I explain why Q4 is the perfect time to stop trying to fix everything and instead put all your attention on one behaviour that’s holding you back. We look at how to identify your biggest domino, define the problem properly, change your environment to make the bad behaviour less likely, and measure genuine progress… without expecting perfection. The goal is simple: arrive in January with momentum, confidence and one meaningful weakness significantly improved. This also ties into my new Train Your Trading Brain webinar series, running live every Tuesday at 7 pm UK time through to Christmas.

Bigger size. Why do we turn every transition into such a big event? Maybe progress works better when the next step barely feels like one.
Sponsored by Pepperstone The trade has worked beautifully. You’re 90% of the way to target… and then it stalls. Do you take the money? Hold to the original plan? Tighten the stop? Peel some off? In this episode, I look at the different ways to handle one of those awkward trade-management moments we’ve all faced and why the right answer depends less on the trade itself and more on what you’re actually trying to improve as a trader.
Sponsored by Pepperstone Sometimes trading feels productive when really it’s just helping you avoid the harder work.
