quote 2

Chris Lori grew up in a family where his father taught him how to be financially prudent. This held some weight which developed his interest in Mutual Funds, Investments, and Equities early on in his teens.

After retiring from his sports career at the age of 35, Chris focused his energies on studying the Forex Market. Then things really turned a corner even better when he met his mentor who taught him about market structure and price behavior. But the real turning point in his trading career was when he was able to refine his psychological profile.

Chris believes that every highly successful trader should have a risk management model and a protocol that protects them from themselves.

  • [20:54] You all have been through a process of having succeeded at something. So you started at point A where you knew little or nothing about that what you were about to venture into, then you engaged you started the learning process and you have a general path on which you are going to follow to achieve your goal within that discipline.
  • [21:46] I see some highly skilled people come into trading but they are not patient enough to engage in the due process.
  • [22:34] If you have no experience and you try to copy what somebody else does, your entire lack of experience represents a risk to you.
  • [22:47] You’ve all been through a process of going from point A to point B in succeeding, you need to understand that and apply that to trading. Have the patience to go through the proper process.
  • [24:31] It’s important to have a very clearly defined development process.
  • [26:20] The day that you become an independent thinker and you don’t care what everybody else thinks or says, that is the day that your trading is going to start to go through the roof.
  • [31:44] We want to train the brain so that it becomes more comfortable with price behavior where previously you became very uncomfortable.
  • [33:38] As price is rising, the state of liquidity around price and why it’s moving and where it’s moving to is changing.

  • [52:48] If you’re making one trade a week and you’re not successful then making five trades a day is just dilution, you’re not gonna be successful.
  • [58:47] If you stay focused and you become highly-skilled at taking money out of the market in a specific area, you don’t need to go anywhere else. So, if you’re not trading Foreign Exchange successfully, you’re not gonna trade Cryptocurrency successfully.
  • [68:13] Every one of these successful traders had a mechanism in place to protect themselves from themselves.
