Aaron, Great content Mate. You are providing Great value!! We should have you on the other side of interview :) and just focus on that 1 part where 90% of day traders fail to be - "Consistently Profitable" After speaking with so many Great Traders, what would you recommend to a newcomer who is willing to learn this skill. Where would you advise the newcomers start? Any recommendations for a Course? @chatwithtraders

Hey mate, love your vids. Especially those on risk management and psychology. Do you do requests? Can you check out Dan from The Chart Guys on YT? My two favourite YT channels doing a collab would blow my freakin' mind :)

It must have been providence that KZread suggested this to me. Over all this was a very good interview. However, it went from a good interview to an existential crisis for me around minute 57ish. The discussion about his edge, especially the bit about thinking small, has caused me to realize a ton of stuff that was robing me of my joy. I needed to hear that. Thank you both so much.

Great interview as always Aaron! 👍👍👍
The most interesting episode. He started with similar methods to mine but went much further. Heard this twice already, lots of interesting pebbles here and there.
Hey man thank you are the best interviewer this is the best community here for us traders keep it going it’s not only about money trading is about passion
Awww yea! Been waiting for a new episode! I don’t even know what it’s about yet, but stoked! Thanks Aaron! I have a request though, we need more scalpers or intraday discretionary traders on. Edit: This was actually really helpful for intraday and scalping as well.

You don't need a custom system, all is built-in in MT5. Not fancy, complicated AI stuff either. You don't even need programming skills, it's enough with a good basic education in math and physics so you can evaluate the results. Simple rules based on math and manual trading experience go far.

Great interview. Reminds me of how we are getting started in automated trading in the markets. Great to hear all the effort put into advanced machine learning. Very inspiring. I wonder if anyone has used the open AI sub to recommend trades or connect to api's and make trades on its own.

I've made the same observation about crypto. been thinking about writing an algo and code to trade it since.
Great episode, algo trading is the future
Note if he is using Ordinary least squares (OLS) he is right when he says an undergrad student would find it boring. It's really basic statistics 101. This means the secret sauce is in the data he is feeding to it. If it works that well for him I don't blame him for not giving that up.
What's a good third party to help to go automated
I want to thank you for the way you do interviews. First you find really serious traders and then you ask them such good, in depth, questions that one can improve his trading and learn a ton. Unfortunately, other channels with trading interviews just focus on hype and increasing number of followers.
i love watching your videos but I'm always caught off guard

Liked the interview, but would be more beneficial if traders give their strategy unconditionally as many do in your show 👍
Spidey senses with his one.
This guy john is so ispiring 🙏🤔👍❤💪
This guy seems that has not much clue what he is talking about
His cadence and general speech pattern is kinda aggravating to listen to.
