Why Your Trading Falls Apart When You’re Sick — Psychological Edge Explained

Every beginner trader asks how to grow a small account…
but almost nobody asks the more important question:
Should you even be trading today?

In this episode of The WHY Files, we open a topic the trading industry avoids — the psychological cost of trading while sick, burned out, exhausted, or mentally foggy.

Fatigue, illness, and overwhelm destroy predictive price action, decision-making, and clarity faster than any bad setup.
This is the truth I bled to find, and it’s one of the biggest reasons small accounts spiral.

In this December series, I’m shifting from charts to the deeper internal work that protects your account:
trader psychology, burnout recovery, emotional clarity, and knowing when not to trade.

If you’ve been tired, sick, or overwhelmed, this episode will help you understand why stepping back is sometimes the most profitable move you can make.

👉 New episodes of The WHY Files drop all week.
👉 Predictive price action. Real risk management. Zero hype.
