  • to eliminate risk i mean

  • the only thing to eliminate trading is not trading, always are risk involve

  • bailnumberguy 5 figure losses? maby go to 2 grade and start to learn something :D what an idiot

  • @Kuziai yea hes a poser prick

  • @Kuziai Actually it's quite possible for anyone w/ the right knowledge and intellect, which of course rules you out :)

  • Today was my first successful trade, went long on Vodafone shares, 0.30p profit in about 15 mins. Hopefully will be like this guy in a few years!

  • go monkey long

  • ryan reynolds is a day trader??

  • i really want to get into day tradng but i am finding how to continue, but no beginer vids

  • Risk & Money Management is what all day traders eventually have to learn to master. No chance to last without it. So talking about the risk and educate traders is very welcome. Thanks for bringing up the subject.

  • He wanted no exposure overnight. He also had a MF Global account.

  • Please spend time talking to the mirror , tire yourself out, then come back and say something clear and concise. You have said nothing that an experienced trader knows about. Please take this off Youtube and retry your video. I really think you have something to say and contribute, but it really wasn't done here. Thanks, G.

  • @gregsbest You sure sound like an entitled little bitch.. Thanks, M

  • I want everybody to listen to what i am about to say! The entire Futures Market is being controlled 100% by a computer!! You don't believe me? Just check out my profile and watch my videos, you'll see what i'm talking about.

  • @OilTradingAcademy

    quit your conspiracy bs, hft is alive but who cares, money can be made..computers have short comings as well.

  • marky mark...

  • This guy reminds me of the scout from TF2.

  • Technical analysis is a joke...it's made up...

  • No money management? 

  • I like this guys approach

  • ive been trading 13 yrs. and this guy does exactly what i do. 

  • Hedge. Sell options. Collect dividends. Move on.

  • "a 5 figure gain today" no wonder it is addictive 

  • If you can eliminate risk then you won't ever lose. I've been trading for only 7 years, learning something new everyday and never have i been able to fully eliminate risk. Minimize it, yes, eliminate it fully, heck no. When it comes to day trading the only thing you need to fully eliminate is your biggest enemy which is your emotions: doubt, fear, hope, and greed.

  • Where is Pete Today? This is a Three year old video and now where is he?

  • @JamJells He runs his own money management firm in NYC with his brother Serge, its called Milman Capital

  • @JamJells I saw him the other day at the Lighspeed trading floor and he was trading with bigger size than ever. A very nice guy and very smart. But his Brother serge and Chad are much bigger players in that office. Pete is one of the best pure daytrader out there.

  • His advice his very subjective considering Warren Buffet built his wealth doing exactly the opposite.

  • this guy is juiced up - hes not tracking or talking clearly at all

  • At the end he says, "job has high risk, high rewards" but for the first two minutes he claims to "take the risk out trading".

    These two claims don't add up.

  • @rfwelsh - It make totaly sense to me as he might be talking about the job in an overall view and indeed it is a high risk job for anyone involved, I like to compare it with a battlefield. However when he talk about taking the risk ou trading, he is talking about his strategy, which also makes sense. One might choose an aproach with more risk but more reward or choose a more conservative, more secure, but also less rewarding aproach, which I guess is his choice.

  • this guy speaks to me :) i have such a similar philosphy

  • This guy seems to be one of the more rational of the gazillion day traders on YouTube. What no one seems to tell you in any of these videos is that there are hedge funds w/ unlimited funds that can pretty much dictate price moves during the day on stocks of their choosing. Apple stock is notoriously manipulated by hedge funds. I've day traded for a while and do pretty well, capital grows at about 35% annually. 5 figure gain days are common, of course 5 figure loss days also. Good luck

  • @bailinnumberguy I couldn't agree more. I've watched alot of these videos and this was one of the clearest and most defined in terms of rationality. I've also heard the massive manipulation of Apple stock by hedge funds. Was curious if you had come across any good sources regarding this type of issue. Thanks!

  • @bailinnumberguy yea sure, 35%...rofl.

    You would be richer than the richest if you can get 35% annually. Keep dreaming.

  • @Elbottoo OK, I'll keep dreaming :). No need to justify myself to you, pal.

  • @bailinnumberguy 35% every year for ten years, if you started at 100k, you would have 2 billion by now. If you had 1mill, you would have 20 billion. If you had 10mill, you would have 200 billion. Tell me, moron, on which Forbes list do you stand.

    keep fking dreaming, moron. You think people are stupid or something.

  • @Elbottoo LOL. Actually 35% compounded over 10 years is a multiplier of approximately 20, meaning that $100K can compound to approximately 2 MILLION. You obviously struggle w/ basic mathematics, so I'm not sure how you get off calling anyone a moron. I don't think people are stupid, but you've clearly demonstrated that you're a dim bulb. Not really sure why I'm arguing w/ you, but your analysis of compound earnings is good for a chuckle if nothing else. See you at mensa :)

  • @bailinnumberguy Ok, so youre a millionaire now huh. Why dont you go clean my shoes, shoecleaner.

  • @Elbottoo I'm surprised you continue responding to my posts after your unfortunate math error. Your calculations resulted in an error of a mere 1,998,000,000. If I asked you to multiply 2 and 2, you'd probably come up w/ 40,000.

    You're not too bright and these goofy exchanges aren't doing much for me. Good luck w/ your pathetic, uneducated existence.

  • @bailinnumberguy Im smarter than your whole stupid family put together, moron. You lost nothing but money this whole year and youre trying to convince us that you can compound annually 35%. Do you think we are stupid or something. If you can, you would be the richest motherfker on the planet, moron.

    Obviously something went wrong there cos youre whole networth is not even 50k. MORON.

  • @Elbottoo Brother, you'r really bad in math!

  • @Domibond007 Not as bad as you retards who thinks he can make 35% a year. Rofl did momma forget to gave you milk and cookies or something. Idiots.

  • @bailinnumberguy I dont think thats true mate.. markets move , not because of manipulation (which is largely a conspiracy theory).. a market moves up when there are more buyers than sellers and they move down when there are more sellers than buyers.. sure hedgefunds can be big buyers n sellers, but there are still patterns to the market and they still contribute to the pattern. Also remember that 80% of hedgefunds dont beat the indea..

  • @bailinnumberguy shut the fuck up u fuckin poser ur a fuckin prick u dont know shit about trading. 5 fgure loss days.... lmao stop making up shit u fuckin retard i swear ill fuckin find u and ur prick family and murder all of them in cold motherfuckin blood u fat piece of shit CUNT.

  • @rbtommmyboy You're psychotic, but thanks for your comments.I'd certainly agree that YOU aren't capable of making money in the market. Best of luck little Tommy...

  • @bailinnumberguy o yea shut the fuck up u fuckin cunt have fun suckin your mom's tits while shes tucking you into bed tonight u fuckin SCUMBAG PIECE OF SHIT NO LIFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  • @rbtommmyboy LOL. How old are you? If older than 12, you probably should seek treatment.

  • @bailinnumberguy shut the fuck up IM A MAN IM 40! ur a little poser cunt

  • @fadethetrade

    hey buddy try waiting for the re-test of support/resistance or supply/demand. let it break threw then when it re- test that level, you can get long or short. Another is to have a limit order right abouve your key level.... alot of people will push price threw levels and without an order near the top you won't be receiving a low enough price to have your stop underneath it not get triggered on the re-test... hope it helps.

  • رجل ذكي جدا يروق لي هذا المتاجر

  • you didn't say anything.

  • At 5:08, it went thru resistance.With me,everytime I enter a breakout like that ,the market changes direction and sells, hitting my stop.You don't talk about where your stop was.

  • Comment removed

  • "you keep every dollar you make" so what's this

  • I may be wrong but basically what hes saying is he has so much money to throw around on this day when google release some earnings he waiting for a good time to get in when the stock evened out and pumped in probably 500k-1m worth of shares helping it go up about $20 per share and profited 10k+

    Its interesting there is only 2 vids on this guy and nothing on google. Would like to see more with some actual information....this didnt have much but of course no succesfull traders want to give info..

  • @Jigabooz Actually, there's plenty of info abou Pete on Google. Just go to NYmag.com and you'll find some fun stuff about him. I know him personally cause I used to trade with him at the NY Lighspeed office and he was Huge!. He started with 50k back in 1999 and Now he is a multimillionaire on his own right. The day of the Flash crash in 2010 he made like 350k That day alone. Very nice guy, But Chad and Serge are way bigger traders in that office.

  • Most people here dont understand what he's saying. Yes, risk is risk, and if you listened at the beginning, he said 6 out of 10 times you win. Eliminating risk, is just a simple term for, " getting in at the CORRECT TIME" or Entry if you will.. Simple as that. If you have an angle that works, but it might not go that certain way, 4 times out of 10, your still ahead of the game, by 20%.. I totally agree with this kat, 100%. Knowing when to get IN is the most important part.

  • Listen closely! He actually says "this job has a lot of high risk". What does that tell you about his claims about eliminating risk?...it's complete nonsense!!!!

  • @48djm16 Your Right,wheres his stop?,etc. Breakouts never work for me,they always seem to reverse position enough to find my stop.I have to protect my other side.He doesn't mention stops,just overleveraging on a breakout.

  • it's not the risk....it's the emotions you have to control.

  • It's simple, if anyone says that you acn completely eleminate the risk, you won't make money. If there is any risk free system anyone would do it. You can reduce the risk to an acceptable level, but when they promoise you the world they are trying to sell something

  • charts don't work

  • @will1577 Charts dont work haha, please tell me what does?

  • Minimizing or eliminating the risk? Attacking the market? Is he deluded or what?

  • mark whalberg

  • Sooo.....How do you eliminate the risk in trading?

  • This is to all of the traders out there that want to know about the strategy used.

    It is very simple. Support, resistance, breakout , and pullbacks and a times and

    sales data screen that filters anything below a block trade (10,000 shares).

    Use no indicators. You should also be using at least three different higher time frames : daily, hourly, and 15 min charts.

    Stops placed below nearest support.

    Follow the above information and cut your learning curve in half.

    Happy Trading

  • @CataClone Amen to that. This is how i trade and i have a 80% win ratio.

  • @CataClone yea

  • @CataClone

    just a quick question. How much do you let the market fall back before you close the transaction? in other words, where is your stop loss? Thanks for your help.

  • @CataClone hey what do you mean by supply resistance and breakout?Thanks,

    friendly neighbourhood 14 year old trader

  • you guys just probably hating on this man! this guy seems like he nows what his doing!!

  • what did you drink last nite mate?

  • I love this video. I wish I had the balls to trade huge size on setups like that. What if for example it didnt break that level and you are stuck long 100,000 shares with very few bidders or a thin level 2 to sell out, or a head fake? You can get crushhedddd. Youve got a nice setup, you've got to have confidence and convicion in yourself and your trades in this market to be successful, and I can tell you do. I wish I could learn more from you man. Lightspeed seems like a great place to trade.

  • @neoclassical1985 come on it theres a few empty desk and the guys are willing to educate. He wouldnt be long 100k google thats for sure. Most guys build into larger positions as the patterns developing. To buy 100k shares of a stock you should be in something very liquid like AMZN or IBM or AAPL to name a few. You wouldn't try to build 100k in something like SAM intraday that would be asking for it anal. Come on in any day and talk to any of us before 930 or after 11am of course lol

  • @kpierre221 I would love to come talk to some traders from the lightspeed office but I live in canada and I work for a small trading firm on the east coast. I would assume there are no lightspeed offices in canada, where are you located?

  • Pete won a trading contest in 2010, I saw him on a Dukas video.

  • so let me get this straight...you "almost eliminate risk" by "getting in big and letting the chart do the work"? Yeah, that sounds counter-intuitive...

  • how much a broker working for a company or institution is allowed to lose a month and how much is allowed to risk?

  • Trading itself is the act of balancing profit and loss sequences. Losses are a natural part of the process... they cannot be eliminated without likewise eliminating profits. That fact is pretty hard for most people to grasp, because it seems perfectly illogical. One reason why professional trading, professional gambling and any other risk/reward balanced endeavors seem so easy but perform so hard. Human logic and reason get in the way of reality. Trading without risk=failure.

  • this is what bothers me about these types of interviews. as a trader when im listening to another trader i dont want to hear the hype and sizzle about trading. i want to hear an actual strategy thats being used. nice chair,nice monitor set up,great trading location,but what did i learn.. ziltch..... give us something to chew on ya know..

  • a sleep deprived mark walberg, mark walberg on crack

  • "Minimise or completely eliminate almost all of the risk" haha I love that one

  • Marky mark

  • Give the guy some credit. Obviously he's able to make a living at it and thats all that matters. Demo accounts are about 25% of knowing how to trade. Orders,stops etc are ll that they are good for. Emotions , panic, fear,greed you can only do that with real money. Go small on real accounts, make money with 100-200 shares for a month or two, the amount you make is not the point. Just win and learn how to lose. Then bump it up to 200-400 etc.

  • you remind me of Mark Walberg :)

  • Does anyone can find this guy on google , linkedin or anywhere on the web? no trace really fascinating.

  • Comment removed

  • attack the market???

  • You cannot eliminate risk in trading! you can only really mange it and try to minimize it, but it never gets eliminated!

  • @MrWTFNJ

    Wash your ears , he said almost

  • @MrWTFNJ Totally lies. I eliminated risk in trading by switching my car insurance to GEKO. GORDAN GEKO TO BE EXACT. MWAHAHAHAHAH BITCHES!

  • Thanks Strong Brother,no over night positions was Priceless.

  • Pete u should add some more videos abt ur experience , style, stratagies

  • Trading is a Test against Yourself. Are you going to listen to your own rules? Are you going to put in the time effort and learn?Do you have the power to detach yourself from the money when putting a trade? Do you have Patients? When shit hits the Fan, can you keep yourself from entering Tunnel Vision. Its a Test against Yourself.

  • @peruface tell me something i haven't heard.. they're all the same.. these rules aren't going to help anyone.

    There's only one rule you need to follow and that's called Persistence.. cause I guarantee you this.. when the shit really hits the fan.. everything else goes out the fuckin window except for this one rule. The less than 1% who keep this rule will be traders.

  • @peruface agreed, most people don't get that point I tell em all the time the theory is simple, its the self control thats a bitch. That tunnel vision is bad hahaha thats when you ask yourself about 1million times why am i holding this garbage, then starts the prayers, after prayers are unanswered you're left without religion and with less money for not sticking to the plan of reducing your risk based on your ability to act.

  • i only trade 2-3 times a month and average 40% per month. Took me 6 years to really find and perfect my own style that fit my personality sort of speak. Do your own research, trade alone, don't listen to anybody else's trade. Read everything you can about Jesse Livermore.

  • @peruface wow .. marty schwartz averages 25% a month over his lifetime.. and he's considered one of the best out there winning numerous national investing competitions. You can avg 40% returns a month? so you can return 11,000% a year compounded? lol.. if you're going to lie at least make it sound realistic

  • @LawrenceLugar1 good guys make millions like at any other thing

  • i love your chair.....blends well with my Acer predator.....

  • then how does the company make money?

  • 4 minutes of complete nonsense. This guy knows thing. The only good thing about this video was that chair!

  • UUUUH - you knuckleheads who doubt Peter's credibility...look at his other video - "the day trader" and look at the 1:25 mark.

    Check out the "buying power" in his account.

    Yes, that is 10 million dollars plus.

  • @specialotool actually my friend is 18,433,000 millions dollar.

  • @specialotool Actually hiz buying power is over 18 millions bucks.

  • He's got a touch of the Mark Wahlberg's about him. Have no idea if he's legit or not though. About 90% of people involved the trading industry are just scammers after your money. I think you have to learn on your own through demo trading and then small stake trading, and build up as confidence grows.

  • @kellyfortune that's very true. go on any website and you will have a lot of people wanting to teach you how to trade from $100-$10,000. it's up to you to figure out how you want to trade, what you want to trade, and how much you are willing to risk. in the end, there is no system, it's money management

  • @kellyfortune wow! u wrote one of the most ridiculous comment regarding trading of all time.......scammers??...LOL! So dat makes me a scammer eh.....do a thorough research kid.....

  • How do you know what system is best? Trading earnings is not easy. Most new traders don't ask enough questions if any at all. You have to have to realize that this business is not a guessing game. That's why only 95% of traders make it. Most guys just don't get it. Be aggressive when it comes to learning and take it easy when just starting. That’s it for today's lecture on how to be a player.

  • haha I go out with 50 positions every day! eek!

  • @jamesgambino hmm?? you are a potential suicide trader :D

  • If you took a systematic approach, should you let your system executed by computers instead of staring the monitorsssss wholeday long?

  • I've just been searching for about 30 minutes on different trading techniques and how to actually make money and I have never been bombarded with so many blatant scams, lies and bullshit in years.

    The only time that I've seen a trader make sense is when they openly brag about their success. I think I've learned far more about potential price movements in the Forex markets studying history and losing my first $400. I guess ignoring these assholes is the way to go.

  • I trade in bangladeshi taka's and I have 5 figure days all the time. ;-)

  • Here's something he could have said that is far better than the bullshit he speaks about. Most men are prone to over-trading. That is, you lack confidence in your positions so instead of maybe trading once every 3 hours you might trade nine times every 3 hours just to feel like you're in control of your money.

    This sends your money backwards. Try cutting down your quantity of trades by 30% and see how you perform.

  • @sabdow

    I totally agree,

    I trade during the morning run on London time and make my target in 1 or 2 trades.

    Then I try to go for some extra and start loosing money and end up having to compensate and start gambling and end up doing maybe having done 10 trades and have little or a negative result..

  • Nothing pisses me off more than listening to stock traders who talk BULLSHIT. Not once did this guy say anything that is concrete except "I made a nice 5 figure sum today" and that's not even concrete.

    The secret is not on youtube or in books. Your skills and efficiency in the market lies in your own willingness to trade and learn in the market.

    He is so shady. What the hell did he say? He talks like a nonsensical philosopher.

  • go out, play some galf!

  • blaa blaa blaa !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • aahhhh good luck buddy but youre a beginner

  • bs! no you dont keep all your money if you work in a firm you have to give them a percentage

  • I hope one day can be like you, thanks for the sharing.

  • Seems like a nice knowledgeable guy, but you didn't really explain how to eliminate risk.

  • Hi Pete,

    Nice video, i like the screen set up. One question, why can't you just trade just one stock?

  • i have a question ???

    how many times did you shit in your pants while you are trading forex loool

  • Hey pete, i really like your posts on youtube, I also read your article in New York Magazine, really cool and very impressive. I have being trading for about one and a half years and I am still learning patience, its tough, but with persistance I will get it. thanks for putting your posting online, we need more positive cool traders like yourself.

    Cheers

    Gerry :)

  • What he did with his Google trade; He waited for resistance to be breached , once it did Resistance became support and his position sat on that support ensuring good safety for position. Now he has a big position and moves the market, his own buying drove the price up and cemented it's own support unless a big Trader went against him and behind him the market he's almost ensured success. That's why he waits for these "setups"

  • He's trading with a lot of cash and moves the market, most people aren't going to be able to attack positions or go monkey long lol.

  • thats a lie

    Stocks can also go up overnight-after hours-the probability is 0.5

    And most good earnings drive prices up

    I dont agree with this novice

  • he didnt say they cant go up overnight he's saying the risk exposure is much greater overnight due to lack of liquidity and inability to exit trades if adverse news is released. Also, hes saying good earnings dont necessarily mean the stock will go up... it has more to do with the expectations of traders and how much has already been "baked in" to the current price. I can tell you he is correct... definitely not a "novice"

  • This guy seems a bit shady. A lot of words, but doesn't actually say anything.

  • there's another video of this guy (pete milman) here on youtube, where you can see his buying power or around 20 millions.

  • @Domibond007 Where???

  • am sure day trading works. but most successful traders are not day traders.

  • @databasemarketer - haha yea a lot of emotions but few words, definite meathead

  • i like to do that too

  • "a nice 5 figure today", HOLLY CRAP!!!

  • Yes very good.

    Most people concentrate on how much money they can make where in fact, they should concentrate on how much they could lose.

    We are designed to look for the profits when we should look for the loss, it is so hard to fight that.

    But he who is patient(all philosophical) stays in the game and takes money from the other 90%.

  • with all this money you make maybe you should buy a new camera, that flashing makes me feel like im going to have a damn seizure lol

  • great video, thank you!

  • You should do more videos. I've seen a few videos, and more people cannot speak on tape, and are downright boring or scary.

    Besides, I need a lot more help with trading.

    I've gone from doing very very well, to doing very very poorly.

    The more information the better, so make some more videos!

  • nathanielbriggs, the reason why you were doing well at first - and now you are not is because most so called "trading secrets" either don't work or you get lucky and catch a part of the market cycle that produce profits only short term. I recommend checking out Martin Cole. He has been trading for over 20 years and has taught live classes where they traded with real money. You will learn how the market really works instead of wasting your time with other "$97 secret sellers".

  • When I first saw the title of your video - I said to myself - "Here we go again". You can not eliminate risk in trading if you want to make a living from trading. And you know that because you contridict yourself in your own video by changing your words to "almost eliminate" lol. If there is no risk - then there is no reward.

  • To this day I do not know why people will not just buy physical 1 ounce gold bars. All the gains you make arent taxed because you dont report it. Gold is going to at least 3k at a minimum. Who in their right mind would trade in stocks? The game is so against you especially when it comes to taxes. When the dow/gold ratio hits 1 you cant just sell out of gold and buy stocks hand over fist at bargains. Guys, please, buy gold and stop making wall st rich with your commission dollars.

  • I put most of my money in physical gold bullion years ago at about 400 an ounce. I will hold until gold hits at least 4k. I will then sell my little pieces of metal and not pay once cent of tax on the gains because the govt doesnt know anything about me owning gold. While I make like 8 times my money, this daytrader probably barely made anything, not to mention he has an insane schedule D tax return with thousands of transactions and thousands in commission costs. Trading is useless.
