[06:50] If you analyze the performance of hedge funds and really good firms and good traders, they don’t win every month.
[06:57] Having realistic expectations, knowing what you can achieve with trading, combining that with the right chart knowledge, is a great way to start and develop as a trader.
[08:41] Becoming a profitable trader really comes down to three main things, having a strategy with edge that fits with your personality, having the balls to trade the strategy during the good and bad periods, and being able to scale up capital and managing risk.
