In this episode of the Rogue Trader Podcast, Nick and technical analyst Jason Sen dig into the real reasons traders blow up their accounts — from chasing losses and adding to losers, to trading on impulse without any real process behind the clicks.

Nick shares how his own self-taught background in Singapore still leads him down trading rabbit holes today, while Jason explains how early floor training, role models like David Kite, and a strict “plan the trade, trade the plan” mindset changed the way he approaches risk forever.
