Think Like a Pro Athlete. Trade in the Zone.
Do you want to perform like well-prepared athletes? Improve your mind game and perform more consistently. If you execute your practice trades well, but under-performing at the trading desk, your mind game might be holding your back from success. In fact, traders struggle with the same “mental game” challenge that block athletes success in competition.
For example, when trading, do you:
- Feel frustrated with leaving too much “money on the table”?
- Lose confidence when when you have a day in the red or make mistakes?
- Try so hard to make up for a bad trade that you make more mistakes and it snowballs in the wrong direction?
- Allow negative emotions to interfere with you trading with a clear head?
- Get so indecisive with your trading that you miss many good opportunities?
- Perform cautious or safe because you are protecting from making a bad trade?
If you answer yes to the above statements, then you could benefit from mental game coaching.
“Needless to say, I’m very excited about the progress I’ve made. These mental coaching exercises have already had a dramatic impact on my game and elevated my performance to another level.”*

Mental Training Success Stories
“He Finally Put It All Together”
“After your session, Mason had a game. He had the best game so far! He hustled, shot, no goals but two assists but he was cool with it because his focus was on shooting and not scoring (finally), defended well with his hands – finally put it all together. It was fun to watch and you could tell he felt really good about it.”*
~Kelly, Lacrosse mom

FAQ for Mental Coaching for Traders
What is mental coaching for traders?
Mental coaching for traders applies proven sports psychology techniques to help day traders and active traders overcome mental game challenges that block trading success. Like athletes, traders face performance pressure, emotional control issues, and decision-making challenges that impact results. Mental coaching helps you develop the discipline, confidence, and emotional control needed to execute your trading plan consistently.
How can mental coaching help my trading performance?
Mental coaching addresses the psychological barriers that prevent consistent trading success. You’ll learn to control revenge trading, stop impulsive entries, manage emotional tilt after losses, overcome hesitation on good setups, separate self-worth from trading results, and develop the mental discipline to follow your trading plan. Traders who complete mental coaching report improved consistency, better risk management, and reduced emotional trading.
What trading psychology issues does Dr. Cohn’s program address?
Dr. Cohn’s Mental Edge for Traders program helps with overtrading, revenge trading after losses, impulsive trading decisions, hesitation on entries, trading discipline breakdowns, emotional tilt and frustration, fear-based trading, losing streak psychology, identity attached to profit and loss, and lack of confidence in your trading system.
Do I need to be an experienced trader to benefit from mental coaching?
Mental coaching benefits traders at all experience levels. Whether you’re a beginner struggling with emotional control or an experienced trader fighting revenge trading patterns, the mental game principles apply. Many professional traders work with mental coaches to maintain peak performance, just like elite athletes.
How is trading psychology similar to sports psychology?
Traders and athletes face remarkably similar mental challenges. Both must perform under pressure, manage emotions after mistakes, maintain confidence during slumps, execute a game plan despite distractions, make split-second decisions, and separate identity from performance outcomes. Dr. Cohn applies the same mental training frameworks that work for professional athletes to help traders perform at their best.
What does the Mental Edge for Traders program include?
The Mental Edge for Traders program includes one-on-one mental coaching sessions via phone or Zoom, the Mental Edge for Traders Workbook covering topics like trading discipline, controlling impulsive trading, managing losing streaks, avoiding revenge trading, and separating identity from profit and loss. You’ll also receive personalized mental game plans and ongoing support from Dr. Cohn’s team.
How long does it take to see results from mental coaching?
Most traders notice improvements in emotional control and trading discipline within the first 2-4 weeks of mental coaching. Sustainable behavior change typically takes 8-12 weeks of consistent application. The mental skills you develop become permanent tools you can use throughout your trading career.
Can mental coaching help me stop revenge trading?
Yes. Revenge trading happens when negative emotions after a loss cloud your decision-making, leading to hasty or impulsive trades to “make back” what you lost. Mental coaching teaches you to recognize emotional tilt, implement between-trade reset routines, separate your identity from individual trade outcomes, and regain emotional control before your next trade. This is one of the most common issues Dr. Cohn helps traders overcome.
How much does mental coaching for traders cost?
Mental coaching programs start at $700 per month. Contact Peak Performance Sports at 407-909-1700 for current program pricing and package options. Dr. Cohn’s team can discuss the investment and help you choose the coaching program that fits your trading goals and budget.
What makes Dr. Cohn qualified to coach traders?
Dr. Patrick Cohn brings over 40 years of sports psychology experience, a Ph.D. from the University of Virginia, and mentorship under legendary sports psychologist Bob Rotella. He’s worked with professional athletes across multiple sports who face the same performance pressure and mental challenges that traders experience. His Mental Edge framework translates directly to trading psychology, helping traders think and perform like champion athletes at the trading desk.
