    I've been trading currencies full time now for almost 3 years, I manage investors money and one thing I always say is exactly what you say in this video, you can't explain your flaws using the emotion card because there is no emotion when you using data, risk management and implementing your strategies on point. Emotions come when you hit buy or sell expecting something to happen and that's basically gambling and that's why there is this emotion thing

    trading is by definition gambling because you don't 100% control the outcome. Also emotion is always a part of the game, majority of quant traders make critical decisions themselves, profitability depends on them, not their models that's what researchers do, traders makes the decisions and take the emotional toll. they prefer to pull the triggers themselves because guess what happens when market conditions take a sudden shift and they fail to identify it.

    Interesting perspective from a guy who's never traded a single day in his life. This would be like the guy who makes Usain Bolt's shoes teaching you how to run fast. This is also why they lock most developers and quants in rooms, so people don't hear them speak. Anyway, "nothing against you bro, you seem like a nice guy." Ps, I know trading doesn't directly produce anything for society but the money you make from it can. Also, naming yourself after a holy figure doesn't make you holy. I'd be careful with the Jesus comparison homie. Congrats on stirring up shit for views.

    He's a young coder at a prop firm, not a major bank, hedge fund, or a proper quant fund. he doesn't have any experience actually trading. I suspect that all these strong negative views towards TA and daytraders is probably cope on his part since he cant or won't trade himself. On the point of actually daytrading / using TA he is wrong. On day trading, he doesn't realise that some of the great traders who run firms bigger than the one he works at started as day traders before starting up hedge funds, especially the old school traders from the 80s/90s, it also includes current titans like Ken Griffin. On TA, its a very broad church, some is nonsense, and some isn't. If you look at one of the biggest educators of quant trading, like Rob Carver, his systems often use TA tools and indicators. He came out of AHL and no-one can accuse them of being failed bunch of 'daytraders' who cant make money Lol Go tell R Carver that he doesn't know what he's doing since he was running a large fund at AHL) In short our friend in the video is too young and green to actually know what he's talking about) He probably tried to punt around in the markets, lost bit of money, & assumed that its probably impossible for anyone to make money since he cant)

    You're speaking out of terms. Selling people with your bias options, which precived as "truth" because you work for a proprietary firm, doesn't mean you truly know what it means to be a trader. Statistically 90% of entrepreneurs fail, 90% traders fail, 90% of anything that have massive upside potential will fail. That's why people who trades, invest, or start a business makes a lot more money. Traders may not contribute to society, however, it provides them freedom to work on other important things in their life such a family or volunteer work if they so desire. It's a vehicle to for an abundance life. They have risk management systems too, it's not as sophisticated as wallstreet but it works. Other wise there aren't so many successful day traders out there. Your point on emotions is invalid and poor examples were given. All traders, including proprietary traders, feel it when they put on a trade. Big lost and big win, fear and greed, are all part of the human experience in the market. It's what make the market move. Don't shit on people, and make money off of it, for what they perceived as valuable and are working for them. That in itself doesn't contribute any thing possitive to society.

    She is a short biased trader. She doesn't trade without knowing anything about the ticker. She does look up the float and SEC filings. If the company is losing money and needs to sell stock to have the cash to continue operating, she will short the company's stock when it gets pumped because the selling will drive the stock back down. It's not random. She has a couple of videos on how to read SEC filings. The lower the float, the more dangerous it is to short a stock because it is a lot easier to push it up by market makers or whoever is manipulating the stock up. Small cap companies who are unprofitable and starving for cash often do a lot of stock manipulation to drive their stock up so they can sell for cash.

Coding Jesus points are all valid, though. With 98% of trading "content". And "Humbled Trader" could improve some of her videos by providing super short summaries of what she is doing. After years of producing videos she should be able to boil this down to 20 seconds or less.

    Day trading is DEFINITELY viable if you study your chosen instrument thoroughly. For me it's gold. Also if you can make money swing trading you can do the same on the smaller timeframes. A chart is a chart, after all. The truth is, most traders faill in my opinion, because they look at the previous leg of the trend instead of concentrating on the one that is happening. This makes it so easy for us to do the opposite. Sentiment always goes in the opposite direction to the trend. Retail gets shorter when bullish and longer in bearish environments. Coding Jesus is without doubt a highly intelligent man, and I admire this about him, but he is equally arrogant. He sees anyone who is't a quant as a loser with nothing to offer the world.

    Its also said by almost every hedge fund or asset manager ... in fact they have whole departments paid a fortune to 'manage risk'. Its essentially controlling the downside and you can do it in a simple way at home, by say cutting a loss at 5% in any position, or in a complex way by building a massive model looking at historic drawdowns and correlations of positions etc.

Also, by on the “high” she meant profitable, not that stocks are up, traders don’t care if markets trend up or down as long as there a clear trend. You said history isn’t a predictor of the future but isn’t the data your algos use historical?

    At the firm nobody talks about emotions, because it's not their own money. Actual trading is control of emotions. Quantitative models don't guarantee price movement, like many quant traders think. Technical analysts, don't need to sit for 8 hours making money. These are all doubts, quant traders have about technical traders.

    I am an extremely rational person and I would disagree with you here. I had this discussion with a colleague. The bottom line question is, what drives the market price finding mechanism. There is only 3 answers to that: 1.) fundamentals 2.) psychology 3.) math/algorithms/data. I think it is pretty clear that fundamentals do not drive the price, at least short term movements (long term of course they do, but this is about day trading). So its either algorithms or people, which act like people (which brings us back to emotions and psychology). If you argue its algorithms, the question is what are the parameters (the relevant actors in the market). I would argue algorithms represent mathematical models of market actors (represented in data) with a speed advantage. So the person is the egg, and the algorithm is the chicken. But even if you argue vice versa, my argument would be that every mathematical model can have a visual model. I would argue that you do not have to program a function based on data if you can understand its meta model and information presentation (the graph). That is what people who try to "read" graphs claim. One can of course argue whether their methods are valid or too naïve, but if one assumes that short term market movements are based on fuzzy math, machine learning and algorithms, there is a graphical model of that, that is subject to pattern recognition. Personally I do not day trade, I try to understand what I buy, that works well for me. But I do not, for a second, believe that short term market movements follow rational causality. I think the algorithms just have become better at being predictive neurotic than the input they process.

    @@CodingJesus As I see it, there are two main reasons retail discretionary traders get emotional when they trade. 1) They do everything manually. They can't manage a portfolio like a prop trader can because it would be impossible to do so without the necessary software. They aren't automating the trade execution so they can only focus on one or two trades at a time which means they need to simplify their risk management and risk more per decision since every single trade affects their bottom line way more than a single trade in a portfolio ever would. That makes each decision more emotionally tolling. 2) They don't trade based on statistical models. All they have is some manual backtesting data (usually win rate or ROI) based on like 100 trades. In other words, they know in the back of their minds that what they have could fail at any time and what if that time is now? That definitely makes their decisions more emotionally tolling.
