In this episode of the Rogue Trader Podcast, Nick and technical analyst Jason Sen dig into the real reasons traders blow up their accounts — from chasing losses and adding to losers, to trading on impulse without any real process behind the clicks.

Nick shares how his own self-taught background in Singapore still leads him down trading rabbit holes today, while Jason explains how early floor training, role models like David Kite, and a strict “plan the trade, trade the plan” mindset changed the way he approaches risk forever.

Nick is joined again by Jason Sen to unpack a relentless week in the markets: gold pushing fresh all-time highs and eyeing new upside targets, Bitcoin defending a key 112k area, and a still-frothy S&P that keeps squeezing shorts. Plus: Jason’s London appearance at the Prop Trading Expo.

In this episode:

• Why gold keeps printing higher highs and where Jason’s next projection levels sit (e.g., 3820–3828) after that fresh ATH.
• Nick’s candid take as a habitual gold short—and what would finally make him flip.
• Bitcoin’s ~112k support as a near-term pivot and the case for a push back toward 115–118.
• S&P 500: trend-following in a “buyer-on-weakness” bull, and why shorts may still be getting squeezed.
