Key Lessons
[11:09] Trading is not just about technical analysis. It’s about having a system with an edge.
[12:12] You don’t get rich by flipping your accounts. You need a good amount of capital to trade.
[14:18] You have to take risk. You cannot give up. There will be hard times, but you must keep pushing.
[17:36] If you’re a full-time broke trader, you’re not going to make it because the best trading comes when there’s no pressure, when you don’t have an attachment to the outcome of the trade, when you just let it play out.
[18:12] Psychology is very, very important aspect in trading.
[26:08] It all comes back to just having the proper mindset, knowing what your weaknesses are and trying to avoid it.
[27:55] Your goal is to survive before you thrive in an industry where 95% fail.
[56:50] That’s how you grow as a trader. Just experience with proper guidance.
[58:41] Stay patient, think long term. And if you don’t get greedy or impatient, you’ll be fine.
