Human Alignment Framework for Market Trading (HAF-MT)
Founded by Roy Shaa
Overview
The Human Alignment Framework for Market Trading (HAF-MT) is a universal behavioral and decision-making framework designed to align human emotion, cognition, risk discipline, and execution with market conditions.
HAF-MT is market-agnostic, timeframe-agnostic, and strategy-agnostic — it can be applied to any market (equities, futures, forex, cryptocurrencies) and any trading horizon (intraday, swing, weekly, monthly, or long-term).
It is not a trading strategy, indicator, or prediction model. Instead, HAF-MT provides a structured way to behave and make decisions consistently and safely after you choose your strategy or asset, helping you reduce behavioral mistakes and improve process integrity.
Founder Statement
HAF-MT was founded by Roy Shaa to address a core problem in trading: the misalignment between human behavior and market reality.
Most trading losses are caused not by lack of knowledge or tools, but by emotional reactions, cognitive bias, and inconsistent behavior. HAF-MT is a structured solution to ensure traders interact with markets aligned and disciplined, independent of outcome.
Core Principle:
Sustainable trading performance emerges from alignment with market reality, not from prediction, emotion, or ego.
HAF-MT emphasizes:
Emotional neutrality and self-regulation
Market context recognition
Timeframe and execution alignment
Rule-based decision-making
Capital preservation and risk management
Emotionless execution
Outcome detachment
Continuous behavioral and system improvement
The framework is suitable for discretionary, systematic, and algorithmic trading, and extends the broader Human Alignment Framework (HAF) philosophy: long-term success comes from alignment between human behavior and system dynamics, not luck or prediction.
The Rose Garden Analogy
“Think of the market like a rose garden. At first glance, all roses may look red and similar, but each rose is unique. HAF-MT is like a guide that helps you identify and interact with each rose — it aligns your behavior with the environment — but it cannot make every rose identical, nor guarantee outcomes.
Just as gardeners gain experience with every rose they tend, traders gain understanding and skill over time. HAF-MT teaches how to approach, observe, and interact consistently and safely, but success requires experience, patience, and learning.”
This analogy reinforces that no framework can work identically for every trader or market — HAF-MT provides alignment guidance, while individual skill and experience remain essential.

Hypothetical: Using HAF-MT with BTCUSD
Human Alignment Check — Confirm emotional neutrality and readiness. Misalignment → no action.
Market Context Awareness — Observe BTCUSD market conditions (volatility, structure, liquidity) without prediction.
Timeframe Alignment — Align higher-level market context with execution timeframe. Conflict → no action.
Rule-Based Validation — Apply your own predefined rules. Only clear, objective criteria allow execution.
Risk Alignment — Define risk limits, position sizing, and maximum loss before trading.
Execution Neutrality — Execute according to rules without emotional interference.
Outcome Detachment — Evaluate only rule adherence, not profits or losses.
Post-Session Review — Analyze behavioral alignment, rule adherence, and risk discipline after the session. Adjust habits, not strategy.
Key Message: HAF-MT teaches how to behave and align with the market, not what to buy, sell, or trade.
