6 biggest reasons for why traders are unprofitable
Lack of data collection
(You will not grow if you don’t log everything and critically analyse for areas of improvement)
Treating trading like a game
(Gambling mentality in other words, thinking they can just over risk on funded accounts since they are “cheap” will lead to long term bad habits that will be hard to shake
No live account performance
(If you claim profitability but can’t grow live money in a real account with a real broker just stop talking)
Inability to handle losses
(You know how to win but one loss and you have lost all composure and you’ll go on to lose your account because can’t handle losses/losing streaks
You think more trades will be good
(You see these traders trading every single day of the month and think that’s how it all works, less is more when it comes to this space if you’re doing less waiting for A+ setups and staying patient that’s where the real winning is done
Inability to stay patient
(You watch guys on the internet that show 0 patience so that will obviously run off on you and you’ll want to take every setup you see and you won’t understand the importance of sitting on your hands especially when you’re not sure of the setup)
My trading track record for 2025 half way through the year, the numbers might not jump off the chart as something that’s “insane” but stability is a key for me and limiting the amount of trades I take per month as well.
This is done with a regulated broker as well, see you at the end of the year.
Just purchased my second investment property in Australia this was another milestone for me in the month of May.
Picked it up for a great price to, 3 bedroom 1 bathroom 900M2+ of land as well, currently in the process of building a property portfolio that will be able to give me a few hundred thousand dollars worth of passive income.
New trading world record with @FTMO_com
May 1st to May 27th the quickest time to secure prime elite status, essentially 4x payouts are needed for 4% returns each time
It took me from May 1st to May 27th to complete this.
Being a good trader was never about who has the most cars, the most designer or having the most watches.
It was always about having the ability to be consistent on a month to month basis.
This is my 2025 track record, red month or green month I will still share.
Last time I posted I shared my full trading track record for 2024, here is an update for 2025 track record on my live account and my fundeds that im rolling with
Talk again later this year, peace
For those that are interested here’s my track record for 2024 with my personal, bad month in January due to some personal issues but was able to make adjustments for it and I was able to finish the month slightly above 0% 😅 consistency above all else 🤞
A little over $19,000 AUD made in my first few weeks with ACG, thought I’d return to Twitter and start posting on here a little, max allocation with them and so far so good no issues glad to be making some consistent payouts also got another $15,000 AUD coming in tomorrow 🤘
Be very careful working with Australians
While I’m married to one & love some aspects of Aussie culture
In the professional world, this guy points out how Aussies often become extremely destructive when they’re jealous
It’s called Tall Poppy Syndrome & if they don’t think you deserve success, they’ll sabotage you to ruin your life. I’ve seen it out here a lot, it’s so common people just act like it’s normal
Even Aussies abroad often are involved in extremely toxic work behavior of slander, lawsuits etc - poor guy is getting the good ol’ aussie treatment
Chill people until you meet the wrong ones. That’s why Americans are so successful. We don’t punish people who are trying to get ahead, we team up with them and try to join in on the pursuit of success
I don’t get why people here are like that. Even if you talk about an accomplishment, they often talk shit behind your back & rip you apart. Lots of back stabbers. Google it, it’s genuinely a cultural epidemic & causes so much avoidable drama
95% of the people you meet won’t have that same mental maturity as you and you just won’t find them interesting.
Most people these days are just a copy and paste.
It’s so rare to come across people that are as driven as you as motivated as you and on the same path as you.
The goal with trading was always been to develop a skillset that you’re able to use to make yourself a bag.
Once you’ve got the bag the aim is to build businesses and invest your money into assets.
