33,554% Return in 5 years | Trade Like a Stock Market Wizard | Interview with Mark Minervini
Welcome back to the Market Chat! In this episode, we have a very special guest: Mark Minervini.
Mark has had a large influence on my trading journey. Two of his books; Think and Trade like a Champion and Trade Like a Stock Market Wizard are in my top 5 and I've gotten the chance to learn from him directly at IBD meetups and his Master Trader Program in 2020.
Over his career Mark has achieved incredible performance including a 5 and a half year period where he achieved an average annual return of 220% for a total of 33,554% Return over 5 years,
In this interview, we cover his background, how he became the trader he is today, the Volatility Contraction Pattern, Determining Pivot Points, How to set and manage Stop Losses, When to sell or take partial profits, and finally risk management.
We also spend the latter half of the interview going through some charts and discussing how Mark interprets Price Action and makes decisions.

I have a 3 fund portfolio consisting of 33% S&P, 33% Total stock, and 33% international. I feel a need to focus on complete growth so I went 100% stocks, but does the SP500 and TSM overlap too much to make sense holding both? However I’ve been in the red for a month now. I work hard for my money, so investing is making me a nervous sad wreck. I don’t know if I should sell everything, sit and just wait but watching my portfolio of $450k dwindle away is such an eye -sore.

There are many other interesting stocks in many industries that you might follow. You don't have to act on every forecast, so I'll suggest that you work with a financial advisor who can help you choose the best times to purchase and sell the shares or ETFs you want to acquire.

@@sherryie2 I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.

After a horrendous 2022, shell-stunned financial backers have misfortunes to recover and a lot to consider, as an expansion report and a pile of different information did close to nothing to change assumptions that the Central bank would probably keep climbing interest rates regardless of whether the economy dials back, And that implies more red ink for portfolios for the principal quarter of year 2023.

"Letting the math work its way into your trading" is for me, one of the most important insights I've gained from Minervini over the last few weeks.

when we use math with stocks is it basically just where you place your stop compared to where. you think the stock can go or how exactly would you qualify a good mathematical trade?
Glad to hear his confirmation that investing for small gains multiple times a year is the way to make money rather than finding those few stocks that go up 50-100% in a year. I can find stocks that will go up 10% in a few days, weeks or months a lot easier than ones that will go up triple digits in a year or two.

This is a BIG eye opener for me, a South African development trader... I followed ICT for months and he preached that the market is run by algorithms He also said that Indicators are a distraction and Price Action is King but here I see a Market Wizard using a Indicator and I'm shocked... He also said stuff like focus on one setup a week while you still developing and than tape Read and even when you are profitable aim for 12% a month than chill, OK but I wanna reach a high level ( Yes I want to be rich) and i know 33 000+ return is insane but I want to also be a Market wizard and it felt limiting...
Thank you so much man...I hope u understand the impact you are having... Learning from great traders all the way from India...that would almost be impossible if you weren't there...Thank you so much😁

Richard, this needs to be watched multiple times if anyone wants to really learn from MM. thanks for doing this interview, you are the best!
Thank you, Mark. I am from Vietnam. I read your books more than 10 times and will continue reading.
I've already read this guy's books years ago. Well worth reading If your serious about trading. Some serious timeless advice given. "What you get is what you prioritize"
One of the greatest, Mark's approach is phenomenal, professionalism and mastering at its finest (and his books are great).
Mark is so articulated
This is GOLD, a lot of notes writing down with this interview!!❤❤❤
You have to realize what trading is all about - it's not getting high, getting the low. It's about making (money) more than you risk and being able to do it over and over to reach your goal. Thank you Mark!!

So if you make money more time than you are wrong but you risk the same as you make is wrong ?? hahaha 1:1 RR is good enough even if you are right 55% of the times Learn man learn 1:2 RR ratios are used so the new traders lose the mental game in the short term and just gamble
Richard great interview. You brought great stuff out of the legend mark minervini. The way you moved the topics around was superb. Looking forward to more such interviews from you.

"The good trade is a trade that you stick to your rules/strategy. You can have a good trade and get stopped (cutloss), you can have a bad trade and gain. That is why the result cannot justify the means. You might be thinking you did right just because you gain. You are like a turkey fatten-up for a kill. Don't be outcome bias. You should be strategy bias, rules bias and discipline bias." This one is the takeaway for me.
I have to say Richard, this is one of the best videos interviews you have done, thank you. Why? In my opinion, there are many good traders, maybe many better than Mark, but for one to learn they must have a good teacher! Mark is not only a market wizard but also a teaching wizard, that is why I attend the MTP programs. I still respect the many other great and successful traders that teach by way of videos, books and trainings, though no one teacher is the same just like no one trader is the same, I think Mark’s teaching is at such a high level like a professor, where you are studying for your PHD in trading! Thanks just wanted to share and reward you for your effort Richard in helping people become better traders, keep up the great work 🙏👍

26:00 ... man that info about being nimble and agile with your strategy when the market changes (instead of getting upset that the usual way of doing things isn't working out) was such a critical aha moment for me. That was worth the hour listen alone and this interview was just chock full of them. Side note - I do wish you'd answer just one question at a time tho.

One of the best interviews I watched
33:25 excellent question. I used similar formulas in the past (percent above the 50 or 200) with mixed results for me. Might be different for others, but great question never the less.
this video really gave me some enthusiasm and confidence on stock trading im a new trader and have made some bad trades but ive learnt alot lately and hearing this interview reinforced the idea of sticking with it and "STICK TO THE PLAN"
I’ve prob listened to this one 5x… & the 💎 beginning at 27:00 mark is such a great perspective. So simple. Great stuff 💪🏽💪🏽
