About Trade Risk
Market research and trading systems for disciplined self-directed investors
Trade Risk began in 2012 as Evan Medeiros’s public trading journal. Today, it has grown into a trusted home for no-hype market commentary, practical education, and rules-based tools that help traders reduce emotion, manage risk, and follow a repeatable process.
The Trade Risk approach
Process over prediction
Trade Risk is built around rules-based workflows, data-driven research, and the discipline required to keep showing up through changing markets. The goal is to help traders make better decisions from process, not noise, urgency, or prediction.
Better trading starts with a repeatable process: follow the data, respect risk, and avoid reacting to every headline or short-term market swing.

What we believe
You can't control the market. You can control your process.
Data before opinions
Good decisions start with evidence, testing, and objective market inputs, not headlines, hot takes, or gut feel.
Rules create consistency
Trading systems do not remove uncertainty, but they help reduce impulsive decisions and inconsistent behavior.
Risk comes first
The objective is not to predict every move. It is to build a process that respects risk before pursuing opportunity.
What we build
Tools built from the same rules-based philosophy
Trade Risk products turn market data, tested rules, and repeatable workflows into clearer decisions. From market research and end-of-day trade plans to model-driven portfolios and systematic allocation signals, the focus is the same: objective inputs, risk controls, structured routines, and fewer emotional decisions. The builder mindset now extends into automation and AI-assisted workflows that make Trade Risk research, signals, and commentary more useful and repeatable.
