We provide a highly specialised service to those involved in trading the markets combining extensive experience of working with traders and trading organisations across the globe and across asset classes with an expert knowledge of trading psychology and performance dynamics.
Our proven methodology utilises a blend of performance psychology, neuroscience, behavioural finance and cognitive behavioural coaching and balances the art of coaching with the science of performance.
1-1 Trader Performance and Psychology Coaching
1-1 coaching is a personalised process that supports traders in identifying ways of improving their trading performance, to overcome any specific challenges that they may be having in the markets, or to help to take their trading up a step to the next level.
Quite often traders have some awareness of what they might ’need’ to do to improve their performance but they lack either the time, support, knowledge or methodology for making and sustaining the required changes. Our proven trader coaching service meets these needs based around three key principles:
Insights – creating the time and space to reflect on trading performance, to understand more about how you make your trading decisions, where your trading behaviours come from and how you might move forward.
Information – providing knowledge and understanding of trading psychology, performance dynamics and teaching practical skills and techniques for behaviour change and performance enhancement.
Implementation – providing the framework and essential support for taking and sustaining action until the desired coaching outcome is achieved.
Trader Performance and Psychology Training
Bespoke training on trading psychology and performance is available for groups of traders in workshop, seminar or conference formats, or via online webinars, for institutions, brokerages or trading education companies.
The key benefit of training is that it enables key principles, knowledge and techniques to be taught to a number of traders within a short period of time. Training can also be combined with follow-up 1-1 coaching to help those who attended to personalise their learning and take action on it.
Specifically focussed training is available for graduate/trainee traders, traders early in their careers, more experienced traders, trading teams looking to improve team dynamics and performance, and for heads of desk/trader managers who want to develop their ability to coach/mentor the traders they are responsible for.
Biofeedback Training
Biofeedback training uses cutting edge technology to teach traders how to regulate their emotional state to overcome the negative impacts of stress, fear and anxiety that inhibit rational decision making, and to achieve peak cognitive functioning on demand.
This program can be delivered to individuals or groups. Click on the link for further information about the use of biofeedback in trading and to see the results of a pilot study we conducted with traders -Biofeedback Training For Enhanced Trading Performance
Psychometric Testing – The Attentional and Intrapersonal Style Inventory (TAIS)
Psychometric testing can be very useful for helping traders to identify their strengths and weaknesses, and for helping them to personalise their trading style. Used around the world for the selection and training of high-level performers in sport, business, and the military the TAIS Inventory measures the specific factors necessary for effective decision-making and to perform under pressure, such as concentration, distractibility, strategic planning, ‘street sense’, analytical ability, emotional stability, information processing, stimulus seeking, decision making speed and confidence - click here for more details TAIS Inventory For Traders
