The Biological Basis of Impulsive Trading Courtesy - Dhan

 

The Biological Basis of Impulsive Trading Impulsive trading behaviour might not stem solely from psychology. Increasing evidence suggests it could be rooted in biological factors as well. Courtesy Dhan Trading often gets portrayed as a pure numbers game, driven by charts, strategies, and market signals. This week’s insight highlights a different reality: trading performance is equally shaped by psychology and behaviour. Impulsiveness among traders is not always a matter of weak discipline or emotional volatility. Research increasingly indicates that biological factors, including brain chemistry and neural responses to risk and reward, can influence decision-making under pressure. Recognizing this deeper layer can help traders approach their craft with more self-awareness and better long-term control over their actions. Impulsiveness in trading may extend beyond mere temperamental weakness; it often has deep neurobiological roots. The prefrontal cortex (PFC), our brain’s executive control center responsible for decision-making, impulse control, and long-term planning, doesn’t fully mature until the mid-to-late twenties. However, in some individuals, this maturation process is delayed or incomplete, leaving them with a structurally or functionally underdeveloped PFC well into adulthood. This underdevelopment manifests as difficulty inhibiting immediate responses, poor risk assessment, and an inability to resist the dopamine-driven reward anticipation that markets constantly trigger. For traders, this means repeatedly entering positions without proper analysis, overtrading, or abandoning their strategy at the first sign of volatility, not from lack of knowledge, but from neurological limitations in self-regulation. Distinguishing Psychological from Biological Impulsiveness Psychological impulsiveness typically: Emerges situationally (under stress, after losses, during high volatility) Responds to cognitive awareness and self-monitoring Shows improvement with experience and deliberate practice Correlates with emotional states such as fear, greed, or revenge trading Can be “overridden” with conscious effort and environmental structure Biological impulsiveness typically: Appears consistently across contexts, not just in trading Persists despite conscious awareness and repeated consequences Shows little improvement from experience alone May be accompanied by other attention or impulse control difficulties (fidgeting, interrupting, task-switching) Runs in families, suggesting genetic components A practical test: If a trader can follow their rules when well-rested, calm, and writing down each decision, but struggles in real-time, it’s likely psychological. If they struggle even with extensive preparation, accountability partners, and reduced complexity, biology may be at play. Treatment Approaches For Psychological Impulsiveness: Cognitive-behavioral techniques: Identifying triggers, challenging distorted thinking, and developing pre-planned responses Environmental engineering: Trading only during specific hours, using position size limits, implementing mandatory waiting periods Skill development: Practice with simulation, deliberate journaling, mentor oversight Stress management: Adequate sleep, exercise, and mindfulness practices to maintain prefrontal cortex function Accountability structures: Trading with a partner, daily reviews, public commitment devices For Traders with Biological Impulsiveness: System-dependent trading: Algorithmic execution, bracket orders, automated rules that remove real-time decisions Career recalibration: Potentially shifting to longer timeframes *Medical aspects are outside the scope of this article. The Critical Takeaway Recognizing whether impulsiveness stems from underdeveloped neural hardware versus psychological software determines the intervention. A trader struggling with biological impulsiveness who relies solely on “discipline” is like someone with myopia trying harder to see; the effort is admirable but the problem requires a different solution. Proper diagnosis opens the door to appropriate treatment, whether that’s cognitive training, medication, or structural adaptations that work with rather than against one’s neurobiology. For traders, this isn’t about excuses; it’s about accuracy. Understanding the root cause allows for targeted intervention, potentially transforming a career-ending pattern into a manageable challenge

Structure.. It’s necessity in the uncertain environment

What is the structure? Why do we need it ?

Structure is a thing constructed. A complex entity constructed of many parts.

There is a famous saying in trading. “ Trading is 10% strategy, 20% money management and 70% psychology“. That 70% part includes understanding your own psych and also the psych of the other traders. It is impossible to predict what’s going on in other’s mind and how they will react with 100% accuracy. Of course we can predict that to some extent but it is not cent percent accurate. So we can predict how market might go, but we can never say how market will go. 

So, we need a structure to understand that and to keep the odds in our favor before taking a decision. I think you understand the necessity of defining the structure. Simply said this is the battlefield where we are going to plan and fight with other traders.

Many theories tried to define the structure of the market. We have Elliot Wave theroy, Gann theory etc. I heard somewhere that people use planetary movements to take trading decisions  But it is not wrong guys. When the environment is uncertain, there is no wrong and right theories. If something works for you, use it. If something doesn’t work for you, discard it. But don’t judge it.

According to YTC price action trader book,
Market moves in a framework of support and resistance and when the framework is broken, it enters into a new framework of support and resistances. 

Before going into the explanation of the above point, I have few things to explain. I said that market is a collection of traders taking trading decisions. Those decisions results in the net orderflow and the net order flow drives the market in a certain direction.


The core reason of the market movement is traders taking decisions. Traders are humans and they have memory. We humans don’t like to change a habit so easily. So does the market. Market has memory and it behaves in a certain fashion when price approaches a certain level where it has felt some unexpected force in the past.

 Market has inertia and it resists the change of environment and it tries to continue the same behavior. Until market shows clear evidence of reversal, don’t take decisions against the direction. I hope you are clear with the explanation till now. If you aren’t, please read this article again before proceeding further

Know the opposition

I was asked a lot of times by my fellow traders, how I am maintaining my win% to such a good number, how I am identifying that the trade is not working and scratching it before getting into a full stop out, how can I sit patiently, blah.. blah.. blah….

There is only one answer to all these questions. I never sit idle in front of the charts. I watch every tick movement in my TTF and LTF and I try to maintain the feel for the market every moment whether I am in a trade or not.

You might already know by now the blue print of my trading plan. I will give a brief explanation of it as a quick presentation.

• First I structure the market using HTF and TTF.
• Then I find the future bias.
• Then the type of setup(s) to look for.
• Then the price level to initiate trade.
• Then I’ll wait until price approaches that level and then look for exhaustion or failure to continue beyond the level, to time the entry.

I follow the procedure in the same order. If I got stuck at a step, I will start again from step 1 and I don’t jump to the next step.

Simple, isn’t it??

If trading is that simple, the success ratio in this business would have been high. Let me try to explain why it is not that simple.

The first three steps, namely, structure, bias and the type of setup needs a hell lot of hard work to master. They demand a lot of understanding about the market dynamics and  understanding about the strategy you are using , especially when you use price action for trading.

Technically, you need a lot of screen time, reviews and exposure to different market environments which obviously needs a lot of clock time (say years). On top of that, if you approach the market with an idea  get rich quick, that learning curve will extend more. You need to find which structural boundaries work and which doesn’t, which trend definition work and which doesn’t, how to find the proper future bias in different scenarios in different market environments etc.

There is no way you can learn it without hard work and experience. So, the first thing you need to look for is to survive until you get enough experience to at least master these. There is no skill related stuff in these three steps. I repeat, it’s all about experience, reviews and the screen time. No other short cut. So, plan for the survival (at least 2 years) before actually thinking about making money in markets.

Identifying the price level also needs a lot of reviews and exposure as it depends on the context and the environment that the market is in. Let us say you are expecting a pullback setup.

To take that trade, you need to identify the price level where you expect that the pullback most likely ends before price actually reaches there. There will be a lot of such levels that can provide the orderflow to end the pullback.

To choose the best level between them, you have to consider the strength with which the trend is moving and the impact that the level you are examining has caused in the recent past. So, you must study a lot of samples of the pullback trades in different trending environments to know where they ended, test them in live and then make them a part of the trade plan.  For me, there is no trade if I failed to identify a proper price level to initiate the trade. This increased my win% to a significant proportion. It needs a little bit of skill while reviewing and also while identifying the levels in live as you have to consider the context to choose the proper level.

Then the next step is identifying the exhaustion, which is the main topic of this article. Trust me, it is not at all easy and I suggest you to stick to the stop entries 2 ticks away from LWP when price is trading at the level you are interested in until you train your mind to identify exhaustion properly. You might notice that I use the word feel for the market a lot of times. Even that comes under this category.

Then you need to know who are on the opposite side of your trade. I mean to say, if you are looking for a BOF setup, breakout traders and breakout pullback traders are on the opposite side of your bias. 

If you are looking for a PB/CPB setup, counter trend traders are on the opposite side. For TST, with trend traders. For BPB, counter trend traders.

To enter in a trade, first you need to make sure that those who are in the opposite side of your trade got into a position and are feeling emotions when price is not moving in their favor, beyond the level you have chosen.

I would like to talk a bit more about this. Let’s divide the traders into three categories..

• Gamblers, who don’t know what they are doing, not even a single word in technical analysis, but are trading for a random money and for adrenaline rush.

• Beginner traders, who know few basics about technical analysis like candlestick patterns, chart patterns, indicators, some price action related stuff etc, but with a very limited exposure to the markets (less than 3 years). They think that they can beat the market with the knowledge they gathered about the markets. Honestly, these are the guys who gonna suffer serious drawdowns as they trade with their arrogance, hope and belief without respecting the risk and the context that the market is in. They always pat their backs by looking at the hindsight charts and the way the market respected their analysis after the fact. As a matter of fact, these are the guys who pay our wages.  

• Professionals, who are skillful, disciplined, hard workers and have a decent exposure to different states of the markets. They know what they are doing and they always respect the risk.

In the above three,  we must always trade with the professionals. Never ever trade against them. So, the first question I ask myself before placing an entry order is, am I fading professionals? 

Between the gamblers and the beginners, most of the money professionals get is given by the beginners as they are arrogant and are controlled by the hope and the belief on the acquired knowledge. Gamblers on the other hand, don’t know anything about the markets.When they lose, they accept that they had lost as they don’t know anything about markets. 

But beginners think that they know everything about markets and hence take positions aggressively even after proving that they are wrong by the market, just to donate their money to the professionals.

To narrow down my on going analysis, I just assume that there are no gamblers against me and I am fading only beginners. With this assumption, I can name those traders who are taking positions in the wrong context as beginners. With a little knowledge on classical chart and candlestick patterns, I will know whether they have taken a position or not before my entry and against my bias. Then I assume myself as one of those beginners who took the position against the trade that I am actually planning to take. 

Then I will try to feel the emotions that they are going through when price is interacting with the level that I have chosen and then time my entry when the emotions completely takes over.

No candlestick patterns, no high/low breakouts, no indicator based entry triggers. This is what I do to time the entry and this is what I mean when I use the word feel for the market. 

I don’t have a problem to miss an entry while doing this process. I prefer to sit aside rather than hurrying into a trade without knowing what exactly is happening in the markets.

Your battle is half won when you identify who you are fading and how their emotions are at the given moment. This is a fantastic information to have to make your trading better.

I am a big fan of Sun Tzu’s book, The art of war. This quote will give the entire concept of this article.

"If you know about your enemy and know yourself, you don’t need to bother about victory.

 If you don’t know about your enemy,but you know yourself,  for every victory, you will face a defeat. So you win 50% of your battles.

 If you neither know about your enemy nor yourself, you are doomed to failure. " (Courtesy - JCK)

Price Action discretionary - trading Set up

5 Types of Set up

1. PB - (Pull Back)
2. CPB - (Corrective Pull Back)
3. BOF - (Break Out Failure)
4. BPB - (Breakout Pull Back)
5. TST - (Test Setup)

Deep look into the setups..

Lets do some question and answer session before going into the actual topic. As it is a static medium, I will play the role of the host and the interviewer for sometime. I really want you to understand this.

Why people don’t leave trading despite of their losses?

There might be so many reasons. They might always find some hope to recoup their losses. But the answer I am interested here is, trading is exciting. It is exciting for the people who gamble or novice traders, as they get pleasure from occasional profits (which comes out of luck). It is exciting for the professionals, because they enjoy the uncertain market environment by respecting the odds and risk.

Why trading is exciting? 

You might have got the answer from the above explanation.  To bring this discussion forward, I am only concerned with the professional’s excitement. They know that the future cannot be accurately predicted. Everything works on odds and risk. His job, as a trader is to think about a trade when the odds are in his favor and the initial risk to take the trade is contained. He uses different methodologies to calculate those odds(we use price action for that), which is a different story. He knows that every moment in the market is unique.

The last sentence in bold is the one I am interested in this article. We all know that already, but we never truly understand that one sentence. If we have understood that, we won’t be trying to form rigid rules to take action in the markets. In the methodology we use, we have formed some rigid rules and to identify structure, bias, setup and stuff to understand the language of markets. But there is something that cannot be kept into rules, like required price interaction with the setup level, signs of exhaustion, etc.. They are unique for every trade you take. You might find some similarities from the trades you take, but no two entries exactly resemble the same type of price interaction and exhaustion.

So, how to handle that uniqueness?

The only thing that we can do to handle that is to understand what we are doing before doing something. The more you understand, the more effective your performance is.
We use five different setups PB, CPB, BPB, BOF, TST. Each setup is different in terms of price interaction with the setup level. I am trying to form different scenarios of price interaction for different levels, and I will share it once it is done. Those interactions will answer the ‘HOW’ questions regarding setups.

Before that, you must get answers to ‘WHY’ questions. Let us do that here. Please try to understand each and every word  as it is so important.

Why we take PB setups?

When market moves in a trending environment, novice traders and traders who take profits from the existing with trend trades will either stall the movement or causes a counter trend weak movement by causing some net orderflow against the direction of the trend.

When that order flow hits a level that can provide sufficient orders in the direction of the trend to block that counter trend movement, those CT traders who are trading that pullback look to exit as market is not moving in their direction beyond some level. Their exits will create some movement in the direction of the trend and that will attract some retail with trend traders to position themselves as market is cooled down after the previous impulse move and is starting to move in the direction of the trend. This will change the polarity of the net order flow, ie. from counter trend to with trend. We must enter before that polarity shift if we want to be positioned with lesser risk.

Why we take CPB setups?

A CPB trade in your TTF might look like a single leg PB trade in a time frame higher than your’s. So, the explanation I have given for the PB setup will be applicable for the CPB trades.
In addition to that, it has an added factor, ie. the trap order flow.
To understand this,
1. let us consider that the trend is up and has formed a swing low without breaking the trend violation pivot.
2. The upswing started from this swing low failed to extend beyond the highest high of the uptrend, and in turn gave a breakout of the intermediate swing low, recently formed, without breaking the trend violation pivot.
3. Those novice traders who want to position themselves early in the counter trend trade without thinking about the context of the market will consider this breakout as an early sign of trend change and initiate their shorts.
4. When price hesitates to extend beyond after the breakout, they will look to cover their shorts and that might cause a polarity shift in the ordeflow,
5.  if enough shorts got trapped. Then the with trend traders will come and the whole story repeats again.
6. The end result is the trend continuing after the this two legged pullback. It can also be seen as a BOF of the intermediate SH/SL.

Why we take BOF setups? 

BOF setup is my favorite of all the five, as most of the breakout fail. There is only one fundamental reason behind taking BOF setups, ie. Price unacceptance after the breakout.  As simple as that. There is no rocket science behind that. But we need a lot of screen time and  reviewing to understand when we can conclude that unacceptance.

But who will cause the polarity shift of the order flow in BOF setups to bring us profits?

“Buy at support and sell at resistance.”
“Volatility contraction must result in volatility expansion.”

You might have heard these sentences a million times by now. Trading evolved, people evolved, minds evolved and some people are still using the old tactics in trading. This is how novice traders think,
" A broken resistance becomes a support." So, it is sensible to buy at the resistance when it is broken out.  So, they place stop buy entry orders just above the resistance, to get an early entry into the move after the breakout without considering the context that the market is in.  When market is moving no where after their entry, they will look to exit from their breakout trades which can cause the polarity shift in net orderflow if enough breakout traders got trapped. So, this is the only thing that we need to look at when our bias tells us for a possible BOF, ie, confirm unacceptance of price, then confirm trap and then pull the trigger.

There are so many possible price interactions, but keep this generalized flow charts.

Bias in favor of BOF–> Breakout–> Breakout pullback which tests the broken out level–> Failure to extend beyond High/Low made after the breakout.

Why we take BPB setups?


Again, the explanation given for the PB setup applies here,except that the orders providing price level here is an S/R. We will have a trap order flow here as well. Statistics say that around 75% of the breakouts fail. Hence, so many novice traders fade the breakouts in the first attempt before it gives a BPB and they might get trapped as the broken level can provide enough orderflow to cause a polarity shift. But remember, bias and context must be our utmost preference. See whether the context and bias favors a BPB or BOF, before even thinking about the entry. (Courtesy - JCK)
