Key Lessons
[11:43] You really need to adapt, to sacrifice and to put the time in.
[12:28] If you can just put a year or two aside, stick to one single strategy, stick to one or two models and not change a single thing.
[19:25] You can never stop learning, never stop adapting to the market and your strategies as a whole.
[21:19] Edge and psychology. If you don’t have those two, you’re never going to make it.
[23:46] If you get into the live market and you try to take a trade and those emotions hit you, you’re done.
[39:27] You only have one journey, and the journey is the most crucial part of a trader’s life.
[39:34] You need to love and get to love that sacrifice, that constant failure and that constant stress.
[41:57] You need to understand that losses are all part of the game.
[42:03] Those losses are what’s going to build your character. Without losses, how are you going to learn?
[46:50] Stop trying to chase all these percentage gains and focus on what is sustainable long term.
[48:42] If you’re trying to pass a challenge with a prop firm, stop trying to hit a homerun every single trade.
