Patrick Bailouni
Australian trader and founder of Master Your Trading Mindset, TELA-X and Telos Capital.
Known for his work in trading psychology — helping retail traders rewire the mental patterns that block consistent profitability.
From early losses to a body of work
Bailouni began trading in 2016, working across equities, foreign exchange, commodities and indices. After an early period of significant losses, including a sum of capital entrusted to him by an investor, he turned his focus to the psychological dimension of trading performance.
His subsequent work draws on decision-making, risk management, human behaviour and psychology, applied to the specific problem of how traders with profitable strategies fail to execute them consistently. This thesis underpins each of his ventures.
The work, in three pillars
