 Trading has gr8 uncertainty associated w/it. It’s also a place that gives little to no security . Also, trading is confrontational ... u have to stare at ur mistakes .

It is natural to doubt your exit strategy. What is most important is to be asking the right questions. What is most important is to be thinking about the right stuff. And you are. You need experience exiting stocks that trade in your favor. After months of practice, you will improve. Just keep thinking about your exit strategy. 

If you cannot stay in the game, then you cannot take advantage of the good runs.

(Before you trade live, we review your work. We can tell how well you have listened by doing this.) If your demo trading shows large losses, then this is a signal that you are not listening. If your work shows that you are doubling down, then you are not listening. If you are trading too many stocks, then again, you are not listening. If you are trading the wrong stocks, then you are not preparing properly. Your work does not lie, and it best reflects your training effort.

you almost certainly will struggle when you first begin. This is good because the best educators counsel that you learn through struggle. Your goal is to improve every day, and slowly. If you sprint out of the gate too quickly, you might not be around for the finish, the best markets.

We do not trade with size when we first begin because our win rate will be poor. We focus on the process when a new trader starts because they are developing their playbook. Each trader must learn which trades offer the best win rate FOR THEM in THEIR style.

 Trading teaches you a great deal about yourself.

There is no shame in failing as a trader. The real shame is never trying if trading is your passion. If you are passionate about trading and you never give it a run, then you will live your life wondering what could have been. Having the nerve to take a chance and trade will serve you well later in life. Perhaps the next chance you take will work out. What you will learn about yourself is invaluable. What you soak up about the markets lasts forever. To try and fail because you were not good enough is honorable. It would be refreshing if this was the reason why all new traders failed. Unfortunately, as we have learned, that is rarely the case.

SURVIVE THE LEARNING CURVE

 Those who can give trading more time when they start have a better chance to succeed. you must be patient. But your time will come. At the start of your trading, you should trade with small size and with one stock. You should not increase your tier size until you are positive 7/10 trading days. You should set a small max loss when you begin. You should be limited in your buying power. For example, when a new trader begins, he should not write more than 10k shares in a day, total. you are not going to be a great trader on Day One Gladwell explains, “Working hard is what really successful people do.” t deep practice, often with continuous feedback, is necessary to become great. Concentrated practice is key Daniel Coyle in The Talent Code: Greatness Isn’t Born. It’s Grown. If you want to be good at something, practice. Practice deliberately, and do so for many years. FOCUS ON IMPROVING EVERY DAY “I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestioned ability of man to elevate his l...

 All great leaders in every walk of life are highly sexed, but they follow the habit of controlling their sex desires, switching them into a driving force behind their occupation. The person who has self discipline understands the emotion of sex, respects it, and learns to control and transmute it into contructive activities. Q: Just what damage is there in over-indulgence of sex? A: The greatest damage is that it depletes the source of man's greatest driving force, and wastes, without adequate compensation, man's creative energy. Controlled sex supplies the magnetic force that attracts people to one another. It is the most important factor of a pleasing personality. It gives quality to the tone of voice and enables one to convey through the voice any feeling desired. It serves, as nothing else can serve, to give motive power to one's desires. It keeps the nervous system changed with the energy needed to carry on the work of maintaining the body. It sharpens the imagination...

CAN A FIRM ALWAYS SPOT THE NEXT GREAT TRADER?

 No. But a prop firm can tell who has a poor chance to become a CPT. To be good at anything will take everything you have. Not having developed the skills to work hard is a turn-off. Trading is a skill learned by doing, not just by reading a lot, theorizing, or the faux art of “paper trading.” THE PROS AND CONS OF RECRUITING EXPERIENCED TRADERS Loyalty is a good thing to a point, but it cannot trump logistics and reality. losing money should really bother you. If I am negative three days in a row, I spend a long evening on my couch with a bottle of red wine and comfort food. As traders, we can all recite the memorable line from Wall Street: “A man looks in the abyss, there is nothing staring back at him. At that moment he discovers his character. That keeps the man out of the abyss.”  Traders don’t talk about how they want to trade, what they want to read about trading, or how they wish they could talk about trading. Traders trade, read about trading, and talk about trading.
