[24:17] The markets are doing what the markets are doing. The only difference is your choices and your approach to the market.
[24:29] You have to persevere and stick with it and that’s the side of trading that isn’t glamorized and sexy and advertised, but it’s still important.
[24:41] Any successful trader who has been trading and generating consistent profits over any decent amount of time has done all that work.
[32:33] Real prop firms don’t care about offering challenges. They’re actually focused on growing the businesses money.
[54:04] The best thing you can do as a trader is to focus on the process, enjoy it, and accept that you’re never going to master it.
[50:22] Trading is heavily 90% psychology. You can learn a strategy in an hour, but how do you trade that and do it consistently?
