TraderPsyche by Anand Siva Kumar


TraderPsyche by Anand Siva Kumar is a refreshing and brutally honest look at what truly determines success or failure in the world of trading: the trader’s own mind. Unlike typical market books that focus on strategies and setups, this one takes you behind the scenes into the real psychological battle every trader faces daily.

The author draws from his personal journey filled with wins, painful losses, emotional struggles, and eventual transformation to highlight how mastering emotions is more important than mastering charts. What makes this book unique is its integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), explained in ways that directly relate to trading situations.

Each chapter explores a common mental trap that traders fall into. From the rush of overconfidence after a lucky streak to the fear and paralysis that follows losses, the examples are real and relatable. The book includes reflection exercises, quizzes, and clear mindset correction tools that can be used immediately.

What left a lasting impression on me is the message that the most important chart to study is not on a screen but in your own mind. Siva’s tone is humble and sincere, which makes the lessons even more impactful. He doesn’t lecture; he shares his experiences so you can learn from them.

If you are a trader struggling with inconsistency, emotional decisions, or burnout, this book offers clarity and hope. TraderPsyche is not just worth reading. It is worth practicing.

TEN Questions with Melissa Reeves

1. Can you please introduce yourself and tell us something about your book "And Then I Laughed" Answer:  My name is Melissa and I am a single widow of four young children who are my reason for everything I do. I love being creative and have loved to write since a young age. Introducing myself feels strange right now. I am still in the process of rediscovering who I am in the midst of being a widow and a mother, a journey I think all mothers face. I am much more interested in the company I keep than where I want to be. It doesn't matter where I go, as long as I am around people I love. I spent many years traveling, being very mobile and sometimes homeless so I enjoy my little house and the stability and coziness it gives my family. Maybe one day I will be open to exploring again, but for now I am enjoying the calm of four walls.  2. When did you get the thoughts of writing this book?  Answer:  This book, And Then I Laughed, is the cul...
