@@InstituteofTrading I also appreciate your videos. I am in the blew up my capital club. Can I tell you just how badly I fucked up. 50% of capital in daily bull 2X oil ETF. Realized I fucked up as its dropping, so tried to hedge, 50% into 2x daily inverse ETFs. On the day I bought the inverses I bought at market instead of putting a limit on the trade. Both ETF doubled in half a day, then dropped at open the next day. I'm the stupid fucker who bought it at the top of that very nasty spike, one that wedged squarely up my ass. Fast forward a few weeks. Guess what? all of the ETFs are liquidated, bulls and bears. Then I borrowed $37,000 from a line of credit and pumped it into decent sounding stuff at a COVID discount. If my idea works out, I will be back where I started in 6 months. If not bankruptcy might be my next stop. I don't know if you could use my stupid mistake but you should use it for your students if you can.

Ross is "Da Boss". Tells it to you straight, the man is brutally honest, refreshing actually. Can't believe they gave away this amazing content for free. Wow ! I wrote it all down and now it's part of my trading discipline. Trying to apply it to life as well. You can learn something from this if you're willing. Grateful I found it. Thank you Ross and Anton. Can't emphasize the gratitude enough.

One of the best lectures on trading realities that I have ever seen

Social media is there to be used. Don't let it use you.

40:17 Well I made a short story to answer that question : Lucas wanted to be a successful stock trader. He knew it was a risky and challenging activity, like crossing a wooden plank between two skyscrapers. That’s why he decided to use a demo account first, as a simulator that allowed him to practice and learn without risking his real money. He could experiment with different scenarios, develop and evaluate his strategies, and face the market risks. Using a demo account was like training in a less dangerous environment, like a virtual reality or a room with mattresses. Lucas spent several months using his demo account. He learned a lot and improved his skills and results. He felt more confident and ready to enter the real market. However, he also knew that the real market was different from the simulated one, and that he would have to adapt constantly. He knew that crossing the plank between two skyscrapers in the real world was harder and more dangerous than in a simulation. He knew he needed more than knowledge and practice. He also needed discipline, self-control and responsibility. He took a deep breath and opened his real account. He looked at the screen and saw the market move. He placed his first order and waited. He felt his heart beat faster. He was about to cross the plank. He hoped to reach the other side.

Very good topics on trader's psychology. One remarks here: (35:55) having an edge by programming - yes, sure! But it’s more about handling numbers and testing ideas than be a genius at programming (a basic skill is still enough to be able to verify ideas - but you need the trading context to know what you’re looking for…). The analogy of having any programming skills is like the ability to read and write but you don’t have to be a poet to have an advantage.

Exactly. He is spot on. A consistent and repeatable process based in facts.

Successful people don't become that way overnight. What most people see at a glance-wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone reading this will be successful in life.

I told myself to pay attention with an open mind and open heart and maybe I could figure something out that will help me with my trading, suddenly a light came on and immediately I realized what I've been doing wrong most of my life. The correlation between life's strategy and trading strategy is absurdly clear. Once again thank you!

This is quite cool and informative but most trader's fail because they give up quick, it take lots of time and experience to become a profitable trader, An alternative is just to seek guidance from some pro traders and more to avoid loses of funds this season then see how happy you will be.

How was the experience at ITPM?

I think the demo account advise is 1/2 true. It's good to get used to trading with real money, but a demo account will at least help you find a working strategy without having to lose your house before you find it. With futures, you can use a demo account to get tons of experience in a pretty short time because you can just keep betting and losing until you find something that works and learn some risk management. I guess if you already have 100k and just want to trade micros that could work, but not everyone is starting with that much money to be forgiving for a bunch of bad trades.

I like your presentation and comments on CNBC etc. So true! I don't watch CNBC or any other network because it is a waste of time and also affects my own judgement and analysis. These networks have the large brokerage houses and fund companies as clients and their agenda is to keep people in "the game" no matter what. They collect billions in fees etc for doing absolutely nothing while investors lose their life savings. Also risk management is VERY important. I try to keep losses to 1% of my account on any given day. It has taken me years to develop my models I use and also learn to manage risk. Thank you for a great presentation!

Well informative video, The reason why a lot of people suck so much at trading and investing is due to the lack of adequate experience before venturing into the financial market. That is why i do advice people especially beginners to first of all start trading with the help of a professional(Trade manager).

What I like about these seminars is there’s no fucking bullshit, no idiot trying to tell you how easy life is. But telling us how hard life is, and therefore how tough we must be.

I never understand why many traders act like they are high and mighty. In reality trading really doesn’t contribute anything to society. What do we provide other than liquidity. At least investors give money to an entrepreneur to hopefully produce something that people need or want. They don’t pull their money out the next day and change their minds. I enjoy trading because short term it’s just a game. Listening to these people talk like they are gods is ridiculous.

16:52 bless your heart. Uncertainty and edges Ross.

Demos are for refining and creating strategies. Many people learn better hands on or visually. You can get used to the ui, execution, and how different products (shares, different options) and how different markets move. Like you said, you learn a lot when you lose. Trading isn't very competitive either, you just need to make money. You're definitely competing against yourself yesterday though. And technical tools are just tools, not oracles. Everything else is spot on, but jumping in head first invites disaster. Planning is essential.

Brilliant talk. Thank you Ross

Great, man ! I'll probably follow his example.
