Program Overview

The 5-Part Trading Audit - What's Holding you Back?

Before you can grow, you need to diagnose. In this kickoff session, we walk through a live trading audit designed to uncover what’s really holding you back from consistent performance. Using a structured 5-part framework, you’ll evaluate:

  • Win rate & expectancy – Are your trades mathematically sound?
  • Strategy types used – Are your methods aligned with your market?
  • Execution consistency – Are you following your rules or freelancing?
  • Capital deployment – Are you risking too much, or not enough?
  •  Time commitment vs returns – Is your effort aligned with your results?

You’ll receive a Trading Audit Template to complete privately after the session. This forms the foundation for your personalized growth path and feeds directly into the next session’s 90-day execution plan.

Your 90-Day Trading Execution Plan

Now that you’ve identified your key trading bottlenecks, it’s time to build a focused and realistic action plan. In this session, you’ll learn how to design a 90-day trading execution plan that turns your audit results into measurable progress.

Turn your audit into a focused 90-day plan with goal setting, session structure, and review cycles. Includes a 90-Day Planner Template.

We’ll cover:

  • Goal setting – Define what success looks like
  • Session planning – Structure your daily and weekly trading time
  • System review cycles – Set checkpoints for improvement and feedback

You’ll receive a 90-Day Planner Template, along with sample plans to help you get started. One or two volunteers may choose to share their plan for group feedback — completely optional.

The DNA of a High-Edge Trading System

In this session, we take a deep dive into how professional traders build advanced technical models that go beyond basic indicators. The goal is to understand what separates a generic setup from a structured, rules-based model with a real edge. Learn how to build structured trading models with clear setups, filters, and exit logic.

You’ll learn the 5 key components that form the backbone of any effective system:

  • Market condition filter – Identify the environment your model works in
  • Setup trigger – Define precise entry signals
  • Confirmation logic – Add filters to reduce noise and false signals
  • Entry method – Detail the exact conditions for pulling the trigger
  • Exit rules – Create logical stop loss and take profit criteria

We’ll walk through examples of both trend-following and mean-reversion systems to show how these concepts apply in real markets.
You’ll also receive a Trading System Blueprint Template to start drafting your own model.

Group Session 2: Drafting and Stress-Testing Your Own System

With your blueprint in hand, we now focus on transforming theory into practice. In this session, you’ll begin designing your own advanced model and stress-test it for logical consistency and clarity.

We’ll cover:

  • Translating setups into rule-based logic.
  • Manual chart testing to identify edge.
  • Key metrics to evaluate system potential (e.g., win rate, reward-to-risk).
  • Spotting design flaws before risking real money.

You’ll receive a System Design Pitfall Checklist and see a live example of a technical model being built and stress-tested from scratch.

Sharing your draft system for feedback is optional — the focus is on creating a structure that matches your style, market, and mindset. This is where trading becomes systematic, not just reactive.

Group Session 1: Understanding Your Risk of Ruin

Most traders blow up not from bad trades — but from bad risk math. In this session, we break down the concept of risk of ruin and why it’s the #1 silent killer of trading accounts.

You’ll learn:

  • The formula for calculating your personal risk of ruin
  • Why win rate and payoff ratio are not enough
  • How drawdown, capital at risk, and system edge interact
  • The truth about why under-capitalised accounts struggle the most

You’ll receive a Risk of Ruin Calculator (Google Sheets) to plug in your stats and see your personal probability of long-term survival or collapse.

Group Session 2: Building a Custom Risk Scaling Plan

Once you understand your risk tolerance and system volatility, it’s time to scale — safely. This session focuses on crafting a risk plan that protects your capital while giving you room to grow.

We’ll cover:

  • Creating dynamic position sizing models
  • Fixed fractional vs volatility-adjusted risk
  • Scaling in/out of trades based on equity growth
  • Risk limits: max daily, weekly, and monthly loss rules

You’ll receive a Risk Scaling Template to define your personal rules based on your current account size, strategy, and goals.

This is about becoming a risk manager first — so your trading account survives long enough to thrive.

Group Session 1: The 4 Psychological Traps That Derail Traders

Even with the best strategy, your mind can sabotage your execution. In this session, we unpack the core emotional and cognitive patterns that lead to inconsistency, hesitation, and tilt.

You’ll explore:

  • Fear of loss and the over-avoidance loop
  • Revenge trading and frustration cycles
  • Overconfidence after wins
  • Paralysis from perfectionism or past trauma

You’ll receive a Mental Game Self-Assessment to help identify your dominant pattern and where it most affects your trading behavior.

Group Session 2: Building Your Mental Edge Routine

With awareness comes action. This session helps you build a repeatable psychological routine to stay grounded, focused, and emotionally resilient.

We’ll cover:

  • Pre-market routines and mental reset triggers
  • Tools like breathwork, affirmations, and journaling
  • Post-trade recovery and emotional debrief techniques
  • Customizing a “mental fitness checklist” for daily use

You’ll receive a Mental Edge Routine Template and examples of real trader mindset workflows used by top performers.

This is about managing the person behind the system — so your edge shows up when it matters.

Group Session 1: Precision Trade Management Techniques

This session focuses on what happens after the entry — where most traders fall apart. You’ll learn how to actively manage trades without sabotaging your edge.

Topics include:

  • When to scale in or out of positions
  • Trailing stops: when to move vs when to hold
  • Partial profits: improving cash flow vs reducing payoff ratio
  • Live trade management examples using screenshots

You’ll receive a Trade Management Playbook outlining different models for various strategy types.

Group Session 2: Designing Your Trade Management Ruleset

Here you’ll build a rules-based trade management flow tailored to your system and psychology. We’ll help you clarify:

  • How aggressive or passive your personality is under pressure
  • Which techniques fit your risk tolerance and market type
  • When discretionary adjustments are allowed — and when they’re not

You’ll receive a Trade Management Rules Template, plus model frameworks from other strategies for inspiration.

The goal is to replace random mid-trade decisions with structured, confident execution.

Group Session 1: Creating Your Personal Market Playbooks

Different market conditions demand different responses. In this session, you’ll learn how to categorize markets (e.g., trend, range, chop, volatility spike) and map out your tactical responses to each.

We’ll cover:

  • How to quickly identify the current environment
  • What to do in each: entries, exits, risk
  • Examples of playbooks for trend and range systems
  • When to sit out vs when to double down

You’ll receive a Market Playbook Template to start capturing your best approaches per condition.

Group Session 2: Backfilling Your Playbook With Data

This hands-on session is about building evidence-based playbooks using your own trades and screenshots.

We’ll walk through:

  • Collecting examples of successful setups by condition
  • What to include: chart image, entry logic, management, outcome
  • Creating a digital or printed binder of setups to reference before sessions

You’ll receive a Screenshot Cataloging Guide and an example of a complete mini playbook.

This builds confidence by replacing market guesswork with scenario-based readiness.

Group Session 1: Why Most Journaling Fails (And What Actually Works)

Most traders either don’t journal or do it wrong. In this session, we explore how to build a journaling system that’s fast, insightful, and actually improves performance.

We’ll cover:

  • What to track (hint: it’s not just win/loss)
  • The 3 layers of journaling: data, emotion, and reflection
  • Examples of effective trade log formats (manual and digital)
  • How to reduce journaling to under 5 minutes per day

You’ll receive a Journaling Template Pack — options for Google Sheets, Notion, and handwritten styles.

Group Session 2: Building Your Daily Trading Feedback Loop

Journaling only works if you close the loop. This session focuses on how to extract insights from your log and turn them into weekly or monthly improvements.

You’ll learn:

  • Reviewing for patterns in wins and losses
  • Tracking strategy drift and rule-breaking
  • Creating review rituals (Friday reviews, monthly feedback loops)
  • Using tags and notes to filter by setup, time, or emotion

You’ll receive a Journaling Review Cheat Sheet and a Tracker Dashboard Template to monitor consistency over time.

This creates a feedback system that turns experience into actual growth.

Group Session 1: Trend vs Range – Mastering the Two Market Modes

No system works in all conditions. In this session, we break down how trend and range markets behave — and how to build strategies designed for each.

You’ll explore:

  • How to detect market mode with EMAs, ATR, and price action
  • Setup structures that work best in each condition
  • Managing entries and exits based on volatility cycles
  • When to switch modes — and when to stay out entirely

You’ll receive a Trend/Range Strategy Comparison Guide and a decision tree for identifying current conditions.

Group Session 2: Customizing Your Strategy to Fit the Market

Now you’ll take what you’ve learned and refine your system(s) to work better within your preferred market mode.

We’ll cover:

  • Adjusting entry filters and exit logic per condition
  • Using optional overrides (e.g., range filters in trending systems)
  • Creating mode-based trade plans to switch between systems

You’ll receive a Strategy Adjustment Template and access to two sample systems — one trend, one range — to compare and adapt.

This teaches versatility while maintaining structure — essential for long-term edge

Group Session 1: Expanding Your Trading Universe

You’ll learn:

  • How to evaluate which instruments fit your edge
  • The pros and cons of Forex, Indices, Share CFDs, and Commodities
  • How to filter a watchlist to 3–6 high-fit instruments

We’ll cover:

  • Creating core and secondary instrument tiers
  • Matching systems to market personality (e.g., trending vs volatile)
  • Building your daily review plan for multiple instruments

You’ll receive a Multi-Instrument Tracker Sheet and a template for structured market prep across your list.

This keeps your attention sharp while giving you more opportunity flow.

Group Session 1: Thinking Like a Fund – Scaling Without Breaking

We’ll cover:

  • The difference between scaling systems vs scaling size
  • Risk compression and compounding models
  • Managing emotions as trade size increases

You’ll receive a Capital Growth Planner to help visualise your future scaling path.

This sets the mindset and structure to move from small trader to capital allocator.

Group Session 1: Identifying and Understanding Trading Burnout

Burnout in trading isn’t just fatigue — it’s a slow erosion of focus, confidence, and motivation. In this session, we explore the root causes of burnout and how it shows up in your trading patterns.

We’ll cover:

  • The difference between stress, fatigue, and true burnout
  • Key warning signs: overtrading, detachment, emotional numbness

I joined the Traders Mastermind course recently. What an awesome experience, the amount of knowledge that is being shared is unbelievable and life changing. Thanks to Pieter an Warren for all the hours spent preparing and gathering trading material and putting systems together. The truth is if it wasn't for the time spent with the team and all the help, I think I would have just been another statistic, the traders that gave up... Thanks to everyone at The Traders Mastermind - those mentioned and not mentioned you all had an input in what I have achieved... Thanks!
