AI Council — Agent 2 of 8

Behavioral Psychologist

Discipline & emotional leakage

Your sizing after a win streak is a tell. The Behavioral Psychologist quantifies emotional leakage in dollars — revenge tags, FOMO patterns, post-streak risk drift, and compliance decay — before discipline collapse shows up in PnL.

Reads what your numbers cannot hide: position sizing vs. portfolio target, taxonomy markers for FOMO and revenge trades, trade comment patterns, post-streak sizing ratios, behavioral R from setup validity, and playbook compliance trends across the audit period.

What the Behavioral Psychologist actually outputs

Not a chat summary — a structured forensic report from your canonical trade tape, with grades, benchmarks, and prioritized recommendations.

Recommended actions

Priority 1

Cap risk at 1.0× target for the first trade after any 2+ win streak — no exceptions.

Expected impact: Removes the largest sizing leak; historical post-streak trades were net negative.

Priority 2

Tag revenge entries in Playbook taxonomy before entry; review tagged trades weekly.

Expected impact: Sharper pattern detection and faster intervention on repeat triggers.

What it reads from your tape

The Behavioral Psychologist receives pre-aggregated metrics from your completed trades — not a generic chat summary. Every input comes from your canonical trade tape.

  • Position sizing vs. planned portfolio risk (over/under % and consistency)
  • Taxonomy markers and trade comments with per-pattern dollar impact
  • Post-streak sizing — risk ratio after 2+ win or loss streaks
  • Behavioral R-multiple and valid vs. invalid setup classification
  • Playbook compliance trend (setup_validity % first half vs. second half)

What it detects

  • Revenge and FOMO patterns via taxonomy tags with aggregate P&L
  • Post-streak sizing drift (e.g. 1.3× target risk after win streaks)
  • Impulsive sizing — oversized or undersized vs. portfolio plan
  • Compliance decay and tilt trades (3+ negative tags on one trade)

What it delivers

  • Discipline score, emotional control rating, and stress level
  • Emotional trigger breakdown with dollar impact per pattern
  • Post-streak sizing forensics and compliance trend deltas
  • Coaching recommendations tied to specific triggers and evidence

How it fits the Council

The Behavioral Psychologist runs in parallel with six other specialists on the same audit period. Each agent sees metrics tuned to its domain. When specialists disagree, they debate transparently in The Situation Room before the Chief Coaching Officer synthesizes everything into a dollar-ranked Kill List.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

How does it detect emotional trading without reading my mind?

It correlates objective signals: sizing deviations vs. portfolio target, post-streak risk ratios, taxonomy tags (FOMO, revenge, plan deviation), trade comment templates, and setup_validity classifications. No NLP on free-text — patterns come from tags and pre-computed stats.

Can I tag trades to improve behavioral analysis?

Yes. Playbook taxonomy markers and trade comment templates feed directly into taxonomy_pnl_breakdown and comment_patterns. More tags = sharper per-pattern dollar impact.

How is this different from the Execution Tactician?

The Execution Tactician grades fill quality, slippage, and exit timing. The Behavioral Psychologist grades discipline: sizing drift, emotional triggers, compliance trends, and behavioral R from invalid setups. The CCO synthesizes both into the Kill List.

What is the minimum data needed?

Core sizing stats work from day one. Post-streak sizing needs 3+ trades. Per-pattern taxonomy P&L improves with tagged trades. Compliance trend needs setup_validity set on multiple trades across the period.

Does my trade data train AI models?

No. Metrics are pre-computed in your account for your audit. The agent interprets those numbers — it does not recalculate from raw chat input.
