 By my second year trading, I learned what shorting was. Shorting is how you make money when stocks go down. And for me, this magical talent that I had of buying stocks and them cratering, my thought process was if I just shorted these stocks and they would crater, I would make a lot of money. So I still remember my first short trade. I shorted 2,000 shares of a stock, VGGL, it's not even trading anymore, and I made $1,050 a share in like a couple minutes and that changed my life forever. After that, what I started to do was I started to short every single stock that was up. And that is a surefire way to lose money. So by my third year trading, I started to have a routine. I started to have a process and I started to narrow down certain stocks that I was looking for that fit my criteria, that fit my strategy. And by the end of year three and year four is when I became a profitable trader.
