@TheStonkDad What is generally your stop loss dollar amt per trade?

[TonyT @misotesla]

@DodgysDD I took a paper trade off a 15sec iFVG after it manipulated Asia High this morning and set my Target to London High. Thanks for your education!

When markets are bullish just remember most traders are over-leveraged at the top and not at the bottom..

I am always looking for capitulation before the turn.. inside of the range extremes is where I make my money.

I don't care to pick tops or bottoms..

[Trader Theory @tradertheory]

Pros make it look easy.

It's not.

Five years of blown accounts.

Thousands of failed trades.

Mental breakdowns.

All so they can execute without thinking.

You see the effortless part.

You missed the years of hell that built it.

[EliteOptionsTrader @EliteOptions2]

Let me tell you why 95% of people reading this will never be consistently profitable.

And before you get defensive and close this - that reaction is exactly why.

You can't handle uncomfortable truths.

Here's the fatal flaw: You want trading to be easy.

You want a simple strategy that prints money. A magic indicator that "works every time." A Discord alert service that makes you rich.

You're looking for the shortcut. The hack. The secret.

And I'm here to tell you: It doesn't exist.

Trading is a profession. Like being a surgeon or an attorney or an architect.

Would you expect to watch 50 YouTube videos about surgery and then perform an operation?

Would you expect to read a few books about law and then argue in court?

No? Then why do you think 6 months of screen time makes you a professional trader?

Here's what separates the 5% who make it from the 95% who don't:

Time horizon.

The 5% are thinking in years. "I'll master this over the next 3-5 years. I'll lose money learning. That's the cost."

The 95% are thinking in months. "I need to be profitable by next quarter or this isn't worth it."

That's the difference.

The 5% treat it like medical school. Long education period. High cost of tuition. But the payoff is a career.

The 95% treat it like a get-rich-quick scheme. "I watched some videos. Bought a course. Where's my money?"

And when they don't see immediate results, they quit.

"Trading doesn't work."

No. You don't work. You're not willing to put in the actual time.

Here's another uncomfortable truth: Your problem isn't knowledge.

You already know what to do.

Cut losers fast. Let winners run. Don't overtrade. Be patient.

Everyone knows this. It's Trading 101.

But you can't execute it. Because execution requires discipline.

And discipline is built over years. Not months.

You want the results now. So you skip the discipline-building phase.

You force trades because you "need to make something happen today."

You hold losers because "it might come back."

You cut winners early because "I don't want to give back profits."

All the things you know you shouldn't do - you do them anyway.

Because you haven't built the discipline to override your impulses.

And you can't build that discipline in 6 months.

It takes years of doing the right thing when you don't want to.

Years of sitting still when you're bored.

Years of cutting losses when your ego wants to be right.

Years of letting winners run when your fear wants to lock in profits.

That's what the 5% understand. This is a long game.

The 95% want it to be a short game. So they keep losing.

Here's my challenge to you:

If you've been trading less than 2 years, you're still in tuition phase.

You should be losing money. You should be making mistakes.

That's normal. That's the learning process.

But if you're expecting to be profitable already, you're delusional.

And that delusion is what keeps you stuck.

Accept that this takes time. Real time. Years.

Accept that you'll lose money learning. That's the cost of education.

Accept that most of what you try won't work. That's how you find what does.

Or don't accept it. Keep looking for shortcuts. Keep jumping from strategy to strategy.

Keep blaming the market when your account shrinks.

That's the 95% path.

The 5% path is longer. Harder. More expensive upfront.

But it actually works.

Your choice.

Huge Milestone: Meet Sandra. My FIRST Female Six figure student. She came to me a broken and hopeless trader on the verge of quitting and going back to her corporate job. This was less than a year ago.

Since then, she has been to more of my in-person trainings than any one else. She has put in a ton of work and has now crossed $100k in trading profits!

An amazing turnaround and she deserves it, as she puts everything into her trading game! Super proud of her. And this is just the beginning for her I can tell. Please congratulate Sandra below as 6 figs is no easy feat!!

Hoping this inspires some of you to get to work!! And we ABSOLUTELY need more women traders!! Have a great weekend wolves!

I've been the trader making $50 / day, then $500 / day, & now $5,000+ / day

I followed a strict set of steps to level up consistently

I'll lay them out: A thread 🧵 $SPY

[Brian Lee @BrianLeeTrades]

To be a winner, you must be a good loser.

Risk management is the beginning and end of a trader’s life cycle.

That’s why it’s principally the most important aspect of trading aside from having an edge.

6/

[Brian Lee @BrianLeeTrades]

No actually just continuously risking my standard R at 2% and compounding it as I usually do.

I don't make windfall profits from one or two big trades but rather the aggregate of many good trades compounded.

[Jdun Trades @Jduntrades]

$30,000+ on the day ❤️

Worked, prayed, and failed over and over to finally get days like this

Just a kid from the bottom who refused to give up 🤞 $SPY
