  • What is “Discipline?”

    What is “Discipline?”
    May 18 2025
    In this episode of Band of Traders, Kyle and guests Bear Goes Long, Cleo, and Baba Yaga dive into the critical topic of discipline in trading. Cleo shares her struggle to stick to her trading plan after a big loss, highlighting the importance of external accountability and rebuilding self-trust. Baba Yaga emphasizes clarity of goals as a foundation for disciplined trading, distinguishing it from adapting to new trading seasons, and explores how neurodiversity and personal discipline styles impact decision-making. Bear discusses overcoming the "lone wolf" trader mentality, while Kyle reflects on simplifying his process to avoid impulsive trades. Through candid personal stories and practical insights, the group offers valuable strategies for maintaining discipline and navigating the emotional challenges of trading.Subscribe, share, and join the trading conversations on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Discord!Sponsors and FriendsOur podcast is sponsored by Sue Maki at Fairway Independent Mortgage (MLS# 206048).

The trio explores trading psychology, from battling decision fatigue to embracing patience in low-vol grinds. They highlight the power of their trading community, sharing how peers catch mistakes and fuel daily prep.

    Graham Glover:

    After years of retail trading education, Graham finally turned to proprietary trading to learn the real approach to day-trading, learning how to trade like the pros by reading the DOM, Time and Sales (order flow) and how to manage trade execution logically. PriceSquawk is a result of what was originally developed to help Graham make sense of the order flow.. through listening to it.

    The PriceSquawk Audible Market Technology goal is to revolutionize modern day trading techniques with the use of audio, and to assist professional and retail traders alike in transitioning to use audio in their trading.
