9 years Trading, 6 years consistently Profitable

I am nothing but grateful for my humble beginnings and where they have lead me...

My family always had food on the table and I never had to worry about having a roof over my head but as a first generation immigrant, it doesn't take long to learn about the importance of money.

To be honest.. I don't remember when I first heard the term trading or even investing... but I immediately fell in love with the idea of what I thought was "making money from doing nothing"

At 16 I got a job washing dishes and making fries at a fast food restaurant and l immediately started investing in long term stocks.

By 17 l had made almost double my initial deposit and my account was sitting at $3200.

Then.. good ole Greed kicked in.. or "ambition" if you're kind enough to call it that!

I didn't know much about trading but I liked the lucrative aspect of it and after all I had just doubled my money in less than a year.. so who could tell me I wasn't the next market prodigy?!

Turns out.. the markets could tell me so;
I lost $2800 in my first week of daytrading.
This was a devasting reality check.. but truth be told at the time it was such an astonishing amount of money to me that I didn't even consider quitting as an option.

So I got back to the drawing board.
Spent years studying the markets and journaling every single trade.

Until in July 2020, 1049 trades later since the start (1 counted my journal) | finally had my first ever profitable year as a day trader.

Since then I have scaled my $7,000 small accounts to over multiple six figures and I have also coached hundreds of new traders to achieve profitability just like me.

The market will recover. The question is whether you'll still be in it.

Working overtime to afford things you bought to feel better about working overtime.

Buying $PRFX only as a day trade, absolutely not holding this into next week. I’m bullish short term because the float is tiny, momentum is insane, and these low float biotech runners can squeeze hard once volume hits. Breakout entry for me is above $10 targeting $12-$13. If it fully dumps, I’d only buy panic dips around $2-$2.50 for a bounce back toward the low $3's. Extremely risky and historically very dilutive, so treat this as a quick momentum scalp only.

Money problems are just math problems you've been avoiding

I’m buying $SIDU here for a bounce trade, not a long term hold. I’m bullish around the $5 area after the offering dip because these space names are still riding the SpaceX IPO hype and SIDU has a history of bouncing hard after dilution news. I think a move back toward $6 is realistic short term, but I would not hold this into or after the June 12 SpaceX IPO. Great momentum trade right now, just don’t get greedy chasing higher if you missed the dip.

Nobody went broke taking profits. Everybody went broke waiting for more.

[Top Trader Sam @toptraderSam]

I���m not buying more $LUNR up here. Still bullish overall, but I’m mostly locking in profits instead of chasing now. I think the stock can still push toward $50-$60 into the SpaceX IPO hype, but we’re getting close to peak euphoria and the risk/reward for new entries isn’t great anymore. If you already have a good average, I’d keep trimming into strength. If you missed the move, I’d wait for a real pullback instead of FOMO buying these levels.

Day trading is just a faster way to give your money to hedge funds.

Some of the best traders spend a lot of time waiting.

If your thesis changes every candle, you’re reacting emotionally.

The market rewards discipline quietly

I’m buying this $LUNR dip. I still think LUNR is one of the best space stocks right now. The selloff came after missing a NASA contract, but I think the reaction was overdone and the bigger SpaceX IPO hype is still alive. Around $34 looks like a solid buy zone to me and I think we can move back toward $40+ with a possible retest of the $45 highs before the June 12 IPO hype peaks. I already trimmed some profits earlier, but I’m still bullish overall.

People get trapped because they keep expecting “one more pump”

[Top Trader Sam @toptraderSam]

I’m not buying $MNTS for a multi day hold. I’m only trading the momentum and taking profits fast. The stock is ripping off space sector hype + the SpaceX IPO narrative, but MNTS has a history of pump/dump moves and heavy dilution risk. If it breaks above $20 with volume, I could see a squeeze toward the mid-$20s. If it pulls back, I’d only be interested around $10-$12 for a bounce trade. Personally, I’d rather own stronger space names like LUNR overnight.

If you feel pressure to make money quickly,
you’ll probably force bad trades.
