Burning the Bias – Where Bias dies, Edge is born.
Hey there, I’m Ash.
For the last 15 years, I’ve lived and breathed tech — building infrastructure, automating deployments, scaling cloud systems. I work as a Cloud and DevOps consultant, and I also run a small IT company called OpsBashAI. My world has been shaped by commits, clusters, and production pipelines.
But now, something new is calling me.
Lately, I find myself thinking less about the next Kubernetes rollout and more about charts — candlesticks, price action, and market behavior. I’m curious about what really moves markets, how human emotion gets baked into every candle, and whether I can learn to navigate all that with clarity.
So I’m starting something new. Quietly. Intentionally.
- Not to chase fame.
- Not to pretend I’m an expert.
- But to explore — and to learn in public.
Trading, for me, is not just about money. It’s a mental mirror. A space where probabilities beat predictions, where discipline matters more than opinions, and where the real edge is emotional control.
That resonates.
I’m 37 — in a phase of life where I’ve built stability, but still have space to take bold bets. I’m giving myself a long runway — until 45 — to see if I can turn this from a structured side project into something more meaningful. Something of my own. Something that gives me freedom from the usual 9-to-5 rhythm.
Why “Burning the Bias”?
Because trading forces you to face yourself.
For most of us, it’s not the strategy that fails — it’s the bias:
- The fear of missing out.
- The urge to force trades.
- The need to be right.
- The hesitation when it’s time to exit.
So this journal is where I confront that — and burn it down.
I’ve spent years learning, stumbling, and second-guessing. But over the last 7–8 months, I’ve finally found a strategy I trust. I stick to one system, use the same indicators, follow the same rules. And now, I’m seeing consistent profitability — not perfect, but calm, structured, and real.
What This Journal Is — and Isn’t
This isn’t a course or a trading tips blog.
I’m not here to sell anything. I’m here to share.
Burning the Bias will be my weekly trading journal — a space where I document:
- My entries and exits
- The logic and mindset behind each trade
- Mistakes I made
- Lessons I’m learning
- Biases I’m trying to burn
If you’re learning to trade while juggling a job, a family, or just life — and you’re tired of hype and noise — you might feel at home here.
We all carry bias. This is where I start letting mine go.
Thanks for being here.
Let’s trade with intention.
Let’s learn without ego.
