  Episode 37 — Applied Stock Basics: Mental Rules (Emotion-Trade Blocking Routine) Turn Anxiety, FOMO, Fear, and Boredom into Fixed Action Rules that Protect the Account 3-Line Summary  Mental strength in investing is not about eliminating emotions; it can be seen as preventing emotions from turning into trades . This episode categorizes emotions into four types—Anxiety, FOMO, Fear, and Boredom—and assigns each a fixed 30-second reset → delay → replacement action structure.

  Episode 36 — Applied Stock Basics: The “No-Exceptions” System Stop Rule-Breaking in the Critical 30 Seconds (Triggers → Blocking Devices → Replacement Actions) 3-Line Summary  Accounts usually break not because the strategy is bad, but because of one exception —a single impulsive action that bypasses the plan.

  Episode 31 — Applied Stock Basics: Build an “Account Constitution” (Goal–Risk–Rules–Execution Framework) 3-Line Summary  When an account breaks, it is often not from lack of knowledge, but from a structure that allows too many exceptions —that can be seen as the real enemy. This episode builds an Account Constitution : a one-page rule-set skeleton that decides what to do (and what not to do) before emotions take over. If Goal–Risk–Rules–Execution are fixed in advance, bull markets, bear markets, and sideways markets become operational problems , not psychological battles. Table of Contents What Episode 31 does in the 30–35 arc Why a Constitution is needed: the market is loud, but “exceptions” are louder The 4-layer model: Goal–Risk–Rules–Execution Step 0: Split the account into three zones (Core / Buffer / Sandbox) Step 1: Lock the Goal in three sentences (Money–Time–Behavior) Step 2: Lock Risk using five numbers (Risk Budget) Step 3: Lock Rules into 12 lines (Buy / Add / Re...
