Psychology of Execution
Cognitive biases, tilt taxonomy, decision fatigue, and building process-based confidence. The second module in the Psychology Spine, mandatory before advancing to Level 3.
About This Module
You learned the basics of trading psychology in Level 1. This module goes deeper into the science behind your worst trading decisions. Cognitive biases that distort your market perception, the full taxonomy of tilt (not just anger), decision fatigue that degrades your execution across a session, and the deliberate practice methods that build genuine confidence. Ten lessons that transform your understanding of why you do what you do at the screen.

The Patterns You'll Find (And the Ones You Won't See)
