@aryan97158@Positive_Equity Join a firm and work with experienced traders and learn on somebody else's dime. Bar that, read everything you can on trading and the products you want to trade, spend 10,000 hours on simulation or until you have repeatable edge.
If anyone has trading questions, post them below.
Happy to let you pick my brain a bit.
Just not too much… I still need it for trading, my wife, helping my kid with algebra homework, and working with the trainees and traders at @Positive_Equity
Time to sell? Caught myself checking P&L too much this week. Never a great sign.
When traders start watching net worth instead of process, things can get a little bubbly.
Anybody else seeing signs?
Spoke with a trainee today fighting for his seat.
Expected bad trading. Found edge and consistency.
Problem is he trades almost everything the same size. Great setup appears… nothing changes.
Consistency keeps you alive.
Sizing properly is what changes your life.
Vol traders have had a great run since March.
But markets change.
Easy trades disappear.
Small losers start showing up first.
That’s usually the signal.
I’ve slowed down and gone back to grind mode.
Some are still swinging hard.
Are you adjusting, or fighting the tape?
Speaking to traders today:
Vol down. Big trades done.
Small losing days creeping in.
Short bull run — less chaos, less opportunity.
In-between market.
Don’t force it.
Don’t dig holes.
Keep the powder dry.
Be ready to attack if things shift.
Until then, grind it out.
From recent conversations with traders I’m mentoring: Simulation is an amazing tool. It costs you nothing but time. The mistake? Going live too early. You can never go live too late—but rushing early? That’s when people overestimate their edge. Build consistency first. No rush.
@jrouth9@Positive_Equity JR: Best trainees don’t ask better questions. They watch more tape and find more edge.
Edge comes from screen time. Seeing it thousands of times until it’s obvious.
Brains and skill matter.
Hard work and grit beat both.
All four together = game over.
@yogesh234@Positive_Equity Good q Yogesh: can t cut losers fast enough, lack of intellectual curiosity, poor work ethic…don t trade enough, try 2 do it their own way, ignore advice, afraid of taking risk, afraid of loss, low standards, low expectations of success, some are hard 2 see, some are easy.
