 Not the first time a troll wanted to fuck me and then I he became a fan All right guys we're gonna start I was away for five days I went to Paris and then all of a sudden my buddy Tim Sykes saw me in Paris He goes dude. I'm over in post-itado Italy so I fucking I literally just fucking booked a Flight like a few hours like ten hours before the flight and I flew out there Had no sleep because the flight was at six in the morning But I made over there see him. It's been a while long times. I've seen him a lot of people go Hey, did you hate Sykes back in the day? You know what man? I know Sykes before Sykes with Sykes I know him before he's his big trader guy persona. So I know his real personality He's a really nice guy very generous He's actually a goofball Dork a nerd whatever you want to call it. He's a really nice guy But then he became famous because he created his alter ego You know it was this douchebag guy and it worked It worked dude. He he became a very big big guy. So hate him what you want But you know what man? That was by design his personality is by design Oh flip the camera. Let's see what I forgot look like Yeah, I'm a hatch today guys Oh Okay, so so Sykes is actually a good guy so You know the point of the story is this guys You know what man in life You you know you choose what you want to be in life, you know people hate him But he's so successful in what he does and now he's building schools His goal is to build a thousand schools. He built a couple hundred schools around the world special Asia, so I I might M. I see actually might build schools along with that M. I see actually donated some money To his cause which is the Afghanistan. So go to the Tim Sykes Karma Walga, whatever and how you pronounce it And donate for a good cause guys as much as you guys may hate Tim Sykes He's the guy that got most of you guys into the game. You know I'm saying marketing wise He got you guys thinking about trading and so that's how you end up in my seat a lot of the students from From Sykes program goes in my seat, too. So it's not like No, but you know, I hate it's him back in the day because he was pumping dumb, but to be honest I was pissed because You know, who's this guy how he gets so popular? Why is he so why people know him instead of us, right? And so a lot of the times guys is you know, it's kind of jealousy Envy whatever you want to call it, you know, I'm a big enough man to admit that, you know I was wrong about him back in the day Just like a lot of people have been wrong about me and M. I see and Alex and all that So, you know that I've been friends with him before the persona that he blew up and then I realized that that was just his persona That's not his real thing, right? And so me walk around this fucking pond I don't fucking sit around here and walk upon all day. Oh, that is what I do to teach you guys because you know It helps me exercise. It's kind of like, you know, it calms me down But I'm not sitting here fucking walk around the pond every single day I do this for you guys. So that's my online persona. When you look at me, you know, oh, this this guy drinks a lot He parsed a lot. Maybe I do maybe I don't but the point is if I could do it guys, you guys can do it, right? If I am not a perfect guy, I drink at party I don't wake up on time and I still managed to do white quite well trading you guys can do the reason why I'm able to do that is because You know, man, I humbled myself today just humbled myself to admit why the hatred between Sykes And we're not really a hatred. It was just me trying to help him because I used to be his friend And he I thought he kind of went the wrong path. And so now he came back to the right path You know, and so it all worked man. That's how friendships happen You all fight with siblings brother sisters, but then at the end of the day, you're still brothers and sisters, right? So that's Sykes man Tim's gonna be my friend forever Because I know his true self. He's one of the most generous guys in the world man He set up a car for me to go to post a tunnel He laid out the red carpet. The house was amazing. He paid for it. What can you say about the guy, right? So look past what you want. You can say anything, you know, man You could be an angel and still be someone that hates you. So it doesn't matter Bottom line is this okay when it starts there. So so as well as I was away to on my vacation damn I look like shit. Where's my hat? Yeah, as I was away from vacation Damn, this is ugly. It's gonna see me, right when I was with you on vacation. I Had so much formal guys. So what I did was this I actually did quite well I traded three days on vacation three days. I Made three thousand dollars each day Walk around just like this in Paris. You saw me. I posted on that. I'm walking around and doing touristy stuff Placing trades on my freaking laptop not nothing that time my phone. I mean my phone You know what I did I use Alex's watch list once again because I'm lazy, dude. I mean I should be around vacation. So I don't know what the hell's going on So I'm actually so Alex at least each day in his watch list along with Tom diesel some other moderators They're watching this basically they tell in detail The plays that they're looking at so they scour all the scanners for you And so I'd use that as a cheat code right a cheat sheet And so I'm like, okay, these are the players that are happening I'm gonna pick the place I like and they're gonna trade them and I did one thing further guys I eliminated the day one place. I stuck to the highest probability Place which is for short trading is called a low-hanging fruit. That's what we created We actually created this strategy called the low-hanging fruit It's a day to continuation breakdown kind of play and so that's all I did because I don't want any stress day was you can get trapped You can trade day ones perfectly, but then if you overstay and if you're on the mobile phone And something happens your Wi-Fi which happens all the time when in Paris goes dead, right? I can get squeeze But the highest probability for a low-hanging fruit. I'm telling you like 90 something percent But when it doesn't work, I stopped out so I stuck to the low-hanging fruit I made three thousand dollars each and every day walking The streets of Paris guys Think about this. I made nine thousand dollars During the three days. I was in Paris 9,000 bucks guys That paid for the vacation You know So I was very blessed and the reason I'm able to do that is I've been doing this for a long time we share and we The strategies that I use strategies that Alex uses The members learn and all I'm doing is I'm pulling up the watch list I'm seeing what the low-hanging fruits are and I'm avoiding day one place and I'm making three thousand dollars a day guys placing fantasy orders on my phone and then when they fill placing the covers You can also use OCO orders So you don't have to check your phone at all the OCO to order we talk about the conditional trigger order where it says if you feel You're gonna just do this at the entry price The stop price and the exit for profit price all in one order. It's called OCO. We talk about this We teach this it's called trigger OCO order. We have videos on this in our video library People can claim they have the largest library in the world, but without search. It's useless We actually have a search on our video library. So if you want to learn about OCO orders trigger orders, whatever you Go search that up. Okay. So while it's on vacation think about this man. I mean 9,000 bucks Trace both sides. I'm also in the big size. I am on my fucking phone. So can you do that? That is legitimately trade from anywhere So you can trade from anywhere guys The key is to know which stocks to avoid People are trading their phones the what we call the hot chicks of the day the most volatile crap That's how they lose that's gambling man I can barely you know, man, you can barely trade on the laptop You can barely trade on the home computer How the hell you gonna trade like on a fucking little phone, right? And so I limited all the risky place I did only the low hanging fruit shorts You can make a living off of that. I think about this. I made $3,000 every day Well, I was there three days. I was there make $9,000 guys trading the plays that people forget The the plays I played it was not the ones are on scanner These are the low hanging fruit that broke down for the day before and we have this part of our watch list guys We teach you how to trade these so if you want to trade one set up If you are short by starting you want to trade one short setup It is the low hanging fruit that M. I see teaches guys And it's like dude, I was so I'm you know when you make money that easy guys Seriously, be honest. I don't so fucking pissed because in my head. I was thinking fuck if I make $3,000 walking on the streets I could probably make $10,000 at home. So I'm like, maybe I should run a mind fucking uh Hotel start trading on the laptop, but that's how you get greedy guys That's how you blow up, you know, you take what the process gives you the process says This is how you're gonna trade You know, you don't want to force anything you trade something The reason I made that is because I traded a size that was comfortable for me while I was walking around If I was oversize walking around, I'd be fucking Cooking refresh on my phone. I'd be nervous wreck. I would not have enjoyed my vacation So I walked around me to grab I made that within the first 15 minutes of each day first hour of each day And I'm just walking around. I'm not even refreshing my phone because the low hanging fruit I'm so confident because I put a stop loss out there right so you can put a stop loss out there as well, so How do you currently use hard stuff? We have videos on how to properly take a stop. Like you guys you guys have no idea you join M. I see you watch that It'll change your fucking perspective on how it stopped take a stop loss But in short most people take us lost a stop loss at the herd level. That's why you lose You put at an obvious stop and everyone gets jacked up. I don't use those obvious stops I use time based off says one. That's one thing that no one talks about time based stops We talked about them another thing is you can see percentage or whatever So the common thing that people do is okay if it's bricks if it breaks the seven dollar line I'm gonna take a stop loss. So what happens is the algo goes hits you similar to it comes back down. You know, oh fuck I'm out of the top, right? But so we talked about this guy's you guys do not be cheap at Alex. We still have that cell for 99 bucks Alex likes putting the cell I don't I don't want to devalue and my seat But you know, I've had people don't believe that M. I see works guys already my seat does M. I see work Does the process work here in the M. I see every day tell everybody that's not in the M. I see How am I see it? So, you know people think oh, there's no way about mixed money. There's no way out to make money. I Not gonna wait. I think I just It's been like two weeks as I've had a red day, you know, not gonna whip and then, you know Even on occasion. I made three days of three thousand profit, you know today I came backs and I made money and the scary thing Alex we sell the cell 99 dollars go to our website guys sign up for the 99 bucks before it's too late Because when that site is gone, maybe we're gonna change our race because Alex wants to raise race because it's kind of pissed off You know, like we do so much work and no one appreciates it. Seriously. I mean I am even on vacation I'll go on vacation. I mean in my seat chat on my phone on my slack You can ask the M. I see guys. I'm answering DMs on my vacation. I'm in night You know, that's that's the whole thing, you know people don't understand until they see it I mean these strategy we have fucking work It will fucking strategies For some to supplement your income, you know, if you want to be a guy making million dollars a year You can definitely do it. You know what a million dollars a year is $4,000 a day $4,000 a day That's it man. I mean three thousand a day walking on pairs on my phone It's not a million dollars a year, but shit man Even if I made a supplement I'll give a hundred grand, you know a year that's fucking life changing for most people, right? You keep your day job. Don't don't fucking lose your day job So that covers Paris, you know, I So the key is you know back in the day you want to be in the action now I want to stress free day. So we picked the easiest stocks to trade It's never easy. I'm talking about easier trades easiest trades of the hard bunch and that's why different in Paris Right, so I walked around click the few buttons and made money Um Zombie rule saved us from SPRT. I posted that in Twitter take a look at my charge on Twitter I covered it right at 10 30 zombie rule and from 10 30 right on so zombie rule helps short sellers Avoid being squeezed like SPRT as well as it helps long-bites traders make money guys If you're a long-bites trader do zombie hour is your hour SPRT I even told the guys when I covered I posted a charge This is gonna zombie, you know, I didn't go long. I'm not the best trade in the world. I was the best in the world I'm fucking switch buys, but you know, I do what's comfortable for me. I stay within my niche You know, I could make money and go in both ways, but there's certain styles that I like prefer and I stick to it You don't have to be the best trade in the world guys, you know I mean if I can make a million dollars a year of trading, you know, I mean, I'm happy with that shit, right? I don't need to make 10 million being stressed out So and then when I come back from trading guys, it's very important because I today man, I find had good sleep I was jet lag and I woke up like oh my god. I want to trade. I want to bank I'm gonna come back and just kill it and that's the mentality that's gonna get you killed So today I made a conscious as effort to say bow Do not get FOMO. Do not get FOMO I know you really want to treat today because you haven't traded in a week on your on your computer So size the fuck down obey your lines obey your risk You know, and so I did that and I did great today, you know, I always made what I made in the week in in Paris, you know but um and Then when you make money, you always think a damn man if I sized up I would bank it But that's how you lose your money guys keep your process size to the appropriate level That the secret actually guys is to size down and widen your stops. That is the remedy for most Traders that are inconsistent because they First of all, they don't know what a stop-loss is don't use risk management They wait don't wait for the lines, but one of the key things is size downs guys Well, you have problems size down and why do you risk? Let me see what else I want to bring on a oh, yeah one last thing man There's a lot of people that are having difficulties in this market Last year when there was a pandemic Soxies went up and up and up and up people thought I was gonna go down there's short squeezes So you just make mistakes break rules and get away from it. I see traders throw risk management out the window and making millions and Me and Alex is looking at you like Wait until that shit doesn't work anymore all it takes is one two bad trades And you're gonna wipe out your account and that's exactly what we've seen today We are seeing the market shifts back to choppy self and you see these traders. They used to be so arrogant I'm the best. We the best. Why are you in my room? I'm the fucking best No one trades like me. I'm a thousand percent win rate. Whatever the hell it may be right and then boom Night and day. Oh my god. It's manipulation. There's algo. I can't do this Fuck up, dude. That's cuz you fucking funky man. You can only trade easy markets You see how ridiculous if your guru is complaining Right now get the fuck out of your room What you can only you can only trade the easy shit So you're telling me it's like a basketball player. All I can do is a layup Nothing else. No free throws. No three-pointer. No, no fucking shooting can't guard all I can do is Fucking layup. You want that guy to be on your fucking team? No, dude Last year was a fucking layup for most traders That's why they have the best careers of their fucking life and then last year people People all become fucking grooves. I'm the fucking best. I'm the best. I'm the best join my service I'm you see how many how many fake traders Started a service last year because I have one good year or one good month. I see YouTube fuckers who barely started trading Podcasters start services and pretend of the best and now they're like, I don't know what the fuck to do You you guys have not even seen a bear market. It's me the 12 year bull market run wait until The bear market comes I've been there man I see a lot of motherfuckers because of the dot-com when everything went up They thought they were great. Where the fuck are they now? How many guys are still alive and still doing this? Not many me one of them, you know during these giant runs It's not my style to make tens of million in one year. I don't risk that I don't need to risk it guys I am a very consistent normal guy making my money every fucking day. You know man I make more money. I can spend right now, you know, I don't have a big lifestyle. I'm not buying fucking private jets You know, I'm taking care of my you know my my my family. I'm good enough, right? So you're gonna see the markets change You're seeing these guys complain and I don't know what the fuck to do because they're not real mentors They haven't been through it. They had one or two consistent years and now they're crying They don't know what the fuck to do. I see one guy the pupper guy said I want to stop trading in my big account I'm only use my little dick account my little count my small account because that's a pupper account so I can pump more people I don't know what to do. I'm gonna stop trading my big account because I want to close this month green What the fuck? Why who does the fucking clothes this month green? What the fucking difference? Oh, I know because they're trying to pump it for their service guys They don't know what to do when they lose they the problem they have is this They can't understand Why the markets is doing what it's doing you dumbass you think the markets can keep doing the same thing over and over It's gonna give you layups over and over That's because you have no idea how to fucking properly trade You're you're a fucking donkey. Oh you do is bye bye bye Yeah, no risk and then and then you have fucking then you revenge trade you and you go. Oh, oh, oh The algos the algos the algos manipulation it's it won't bounce. No shit won't bounce donkey You have no risk management You think Doc should do what you think it does you would be a billionaire by now Why is it that your best year is in the year of the pandemic where it was a layup? think about this I Made money through the toughest markets in the world and I'm still here These guys make money in the easiest markets in the world And then they cry when it doesn't do whether Man, I don't know why you guys paid these fuckers man.

I think we he was on IG live to and then I mean, it was not overnight. Obviously, he worked his ass off for a few months And then he started learning it and then we made him a junior moderator Because John I'm like, holy crap. This guy went from To learning and the reason we made him a junior moderators not because he came consistent and good trader It's because he started to help so many members. I'm like, dude, this guy's a good guy. That's how easy fucking he's humble He's also travels the world guys. He's living his dream. He doesn't have a job and job is trade right now So he may have a junior moderator because you know what that he helped people, you know And then now we do his charge of it in my he's I'm gonna holy shit today actually commented On slag like dude, I gotta learn from you Steve. I gotta hold on for the years to congratulate something that and so So so now he went so now I wanted to I talked about that dude this this guy needs a promotion So, I mean, this is not a corporation actually where he's making thousands of dollars 100s of thousands of dollars a year This is more of like a ceremonial thing And uh, he's gonna be trading for the rest of his life now see if you are all your way to trade for the rest of your life We are promoting you to a full flow moderator, man. So congratulations. Wow. We love you. Thank you. Thank you brother. Yeah So so so uh, tell tell them what what's going on. So tell them about yourself and awesome And what you do and all that says go sure. Well, first of all, I really appreciate that I I appreciate you guys to support My passion is obviously traveling Uh trading and I love helping people. So this is like a perfect fit for me I want to get to more countries do more meetups I really want to meet more of these members and do fun stuff and cool stuff and I'm really excited And I really appreciate the promotion. It's just awesome Um, so right now I'm in Marcos got Croatia. Here's the view for my balcony It's a beautiful coastal town If you've never been to Croatia, I really recommend it. It's just amazing Um, this weekend I'm planning a trip. I'm going to spain Not sure where pama visa Alcantar, maybe I'm I'm really not sure yet, but I'm I'm going to book the ticket today or tomorrow. So yeah, I travel funded by your trading Sorry, oh, yeah, so I I basically like I quit my we did a youtube interview about this like, uh, I don't know A while back, but I quit my job a couple years ago. I left the us I kind of had enough of the rat race and I'm like, man, I'm just gonna like You know do follow my passion. I love trading and traveling. I'm just going to follow it So I just left the country and I've been doing it ever since And I found a home at him in my seat Like I said, I brought a lot of bad habits But after so many charts with EMAs and bow and all the guys are slapping me. Hey get that stuff off your chart So I dedicated myself to the mc process a hundred percent And uh, you know, it's not overnight takes a little time, but everything turned around and I couldn't be happier. I mean You know, it's just it's life changing. M. I see is the best thing that one of the best things that ever happened to me I mean, it's just let me ask you where where I've never asked you this. So like today. Are you green today? Oh, yeah, you're green yesterday Uh, yeah, I think I had a red day. I I think I had one last week So how many red days a month now are you fucking doing? Um, I mean honestly, I I want to say like between one and three maybe four But like the way I really The thing that really helped me is not so much focusing like Profit, it's just like making good charts making good charts process. So it sounds yeah, like it sounds crazy But when I was focused and I mean taught me this like if you're if you need the money and you're focused on the money You're not gonna make much money So now like I do track I save all my charts I take a photo of my pnls and just to put it in the records And I go back to my charts and I study them later But really like I just try to trade well And and I tell new people all the time like when you come in and you say I need to make money I'm going to make so I'm like man. You got to slow down focus on your education first And money second because when people are focused on their money first They're not going to make money And I mean taught me that and it was a kick in the ass, but it's it's dead on true You need to focus on process and education and that's where mic comes in And if you think you could join for a month and learn everything and then go make money I mean you've really you got to dedicate yourself to mic and I keep saying this again and again And some people listen some people don't But you know monthly you could you could check it out. But I mean really you got to you got to commit yourself I mean correct It adds up fast, right steve. You know it adds up quick Yeah, I mean when you don't have these big losing days and when you lose You know your days are not big either They're not big losing days because you have proper risk measures. I see that on your charts. Yes. Yes. Yeah, I keep I keep a max daily loss I've got a max daily shares. I've got stop losses I've got an auto liquidation For one stock versus a daily loss. I mean you that's smart, you know, it's all about risk management It's all about risk management without that. You're not going to make it and that's that's basically something that you never had before I mean that most And I remember because I'm the same way as you you're like fuck man. I lost a month of work, right? Yeah, yeah, it's tough. Yeah And that's why people quit because Not only financially it's the mental strain of like I can't tell you what what the hell am I doing, right? I take one step forward and three steps back So I beat it. I beat into all the members who's team including myself and newly alec risk management risk management max Daily loss No one teaches that except m-i-c and everyone else is revenge training revenge training They have million dollars of losses, right? And now I do I never want to screw that again guys Never I mean walk the fuck away You can have one bad day. Do not have a fucking bad life, right? Because of one bad trade. So right, right? Yeah, my opinion, sorry go ahead good My opinion two things you need in trading and especially if you're new but you need it no matter what Education and risk management Yep, that's it. I mean people are like, what's the secret sauce? What you know, what do I do and that's it Education risk management. So that's the thing. So you've been doing this. So you went from an unprobable Kind of stupid forestry. I call everyone's work straight, you know, I I don't know any single Yeah You Yeah, whatever but but but so Steve actually trade off a laptop Tell us about your laptop. Yeah. So like what I do is I've got here it is here. I've got a little laptop And what I do is I I don't want to carry a big setup when I travel So I htmi it into a tv And then I split screen it and then I could see everything there this place I'm only here a few days. So the tv is not so big But usually when I go to an airbnb I want to see like a big big tv and I usually pick that one How much of your rental today? So here's the thing like I Generally and people are usually surprised what I've been traveling around europe in the middle east for the last little over two years And I basically my monthly expenses are between two and three thousand bucks Now if I trade a lot but that's a lot though for over there Well, no, but that's like everything. I mean that's rent. That's food. That's like taxis Uber I mean if you could think of it, those are all my expenses dialed in Alcohol that's going out. That's dinners. I mean that's like everything now When I'm in some areas like turkey or eastern europe like not crecia, but nearby here Crecia is expensive, but I could spend even a thousand or 1500 a month So it really depends on where you were. I'm just saying like an average But I'll basically now so now you kind of stress free training because you know, yeah Only takes a few days to make your buck, you know, if you do it, right, right? Yeah, and so and when you make it you're a fucking not giving that shit back That's the key guys when you make it do not give that shit back It's like you're fucking booty tight as hell in prison, right? Keep it So I mean you're you're fucking living the dream that people want so this is the thing guys We always talk about you know, man supplement your income Steve right now is basically as a u.s citizen his supplement his income Which is no income to travel the world But I mean now but now that you're you're stacking now, right bro I mean you must be stacking now saving some money up and then You know, I yeah, so my savings actually I've got I left with about what I thought would be two years of Of uh, you know money to survive and I figured hey if I make it I make it If not, I'm gonna have an experience on my life, right? But right now my bank accounts have a little bit more than what I left No, including yeah, yeah, so you not only save money you are living your life, bro So I could probably survive out here if I stopped trading right now for another two three years maybe That's awesome, man So people ask like when you're coming back. I'm like, well, I'll come back to visit I don't know if I'm moving back So it's only been like what a year since you won the lifetime. Um, I don't remember. I think it was yeah less than a year Yeah, shit, man. So all that time You you you so tell us the real learn of learning curve. Okay, so the thing is steve has a worst learning curve It has to unlearn all the bad things about the bullshit. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So talk about the what they can expect What can people expect to get from where you got? formal bad Experience if that happens all that to be where you are today You mean like how I got here or what changed so tell tell the people like if they were to join What can they expect in terms of time frame in terms of studying what they need to do So, okay, here's the so here. Okay. So here's my opinion if you join like fresh and you never belong to another service like Some services I think they're not so bad, but I keep hearing I got my foundation there, but couldn't get the next level. We might see brought me the next level So maybe some aren't so bad but my experience and what I mainly hear a lot of them are scammy And you get bad habits people come in with all these indicators and I mean honestly like if you use it More power to you, but RSI and stochastics all this kind of crazy shit. Like it doesn't work You use it you use the I know because I so I had to learn all this stuff like in my sees process is really simple Like but the thing is people don't believe right? You're like, how could this simple shit work? No, they don't believe it and they want to keep you I see they send me charts with all these indicate. I'm like, why can't even see your chart? You gotta people think it's complicated because you're making money. It should be hard But when you over complicate things like the thing is scammy services They they oversell these indicators or they sell you the indicators because They want to make you think like it's easy if you just follow this a b and c you'll make money But it's not like that. You've got to learn a process. So when you join m. I see Fresh without any of that baggage Um, I don't know. I mean it depends on you, but I've seen people Start being consistent three months could be six months. I mean it could be a little bit longer But when you join with all these bad habits The quicker you dump your bad habits the quicker you'll get consistent in my opinion If you hold on to them for a year and just forget about it if you Can't use basic risk management and aren't dedicated your education Then honestly like I hate to like I hope this doesn't hurt, but just don't join them. I see it's it's just You're you're looking for pumps. You're not going to get rich quick So like you got to work you can't become like you can't go to college for free in one day I mean you've got to dedicate yourself to it. It's a thousand times easier than being a doctor But it still takes some work Yep, and the thing is man now now you learn a skill for life, bro Right and no one can take that from you. Yeah, you don't need you don't need To have to be pumped to you don't need to follow anybody You are now a self-sufficient trader can wake up This is the thing I love the most to power someone because this is the feeling I got when I became consistently profitable To be have I call like an x-man superpower to be able to make money, dude I'm serious. I wake up when I wake up in the morning. I expect to make Seriously, if I don't make money, I'm like what the fuck is going wrong? What the hell's going on? You know, I don't know what's going on. I expect to make money. This is how good This is how good the process is, you know, you you don't make money all the time obviously But you don't wake up like before thinking Oh, I I don't know if I'm gonna make money gamble right gamble So so you actually now can go anywhere in the world with a laptop I'm not giving money, dude. That's a superpower, bro It is and people think like it's just some crazy guy on the internet or it's not possible but like I mean, there's people watching this like doris who is one of my buddy's ex-wives and Like these people are normal people and they know me for my normal life And they know what I've been doing for the last two years. This isn't something that isn't accomplishable I mean, you could accomplish it. You just need to if it's your dream You just need to follow it you have to use You don't need to use the money to travel you could follow like whatever dreams you have I mean, even just supplemental income is great. Who doesn't want to make another 500 or grand or two a week Yep, I mean like That's like that's like changing money for most of them And and things you have to be realistic, right? These guys are being scammed by the lifestyle Services. Yeah, it was driving an embo. I mean so when they so I get guys that coming from these pump services And the first week they're complaining to me I'm like bow. I'm not consistent. What the fuck is going on? It's like they join they say where's lambo? Where's lambo? It's like bro, uh, it's been one week. You have not watched a single video All you're doing is gambling You know, I mean it doesn't work like that guys. You get what you put in so there's two ways to trade Actually, there's one way to trade that works, but uh The way is to learn edge key like Steve says edge key and risk management the other way I don't call a trade I call it gambling and that's the lambo. Yeah, the lambo expectation you extra. It's like being a doctor You know, I like dude we make more you can make more money trading within one hour Most doctors think okay, but doctors go to school for 12 years And you expect to become a doctor, you know by by what by reading a wikipedia one page Yeah, so you have Expectations so Steve, how long did it kick you tell people like real estate like Your your four experience and then the m-i-c experience and the game you really have it like months. How many well, yeah so so for me, I mean I traded like crypto and forex, I don't know I want to say You're in a half or two years. It's so embarrassing, right? But like six months I know yeah, I'm stubborn like I'm just stubborn. I'm it's just the problem for me It was a year. It wasn't stubborn. It would have been faster. It was me screaming. What the hell you doing? Yeah, so probably yeah, like six months things got better probably a year I started like during the lot, you know pretty good. I mean something like that But like I said, I'm the most stubborn guy I mean even when I joined at first I was like, okay, but let me let me solidify this forex thing Once I can make money there. I could also make money here and just I'm like I need to learn from my mistakes Like I can't somebody can't tell me and I'll learn. I need to do it So it's good and it's bad That's because you're too smart man the smart people always think they know what they're doing So, you know, it takes a lot of The smarter you are bigger ego you have the longer it takes you to unlearn bad That's it. Yes, you know, like I still I still a lot of bad habits, bro So so so how long it takes you to unlearn them? Oh to unlearn it. I want to say A good six months. I mean I remember sending some charts to mean before he was a moderator And I would say like because I saw his trading was awesome and he would like give me some pointers and he's like, bro Don't send me any of these EMAs Take these off your charts and I'm like Is the exponential moving average by the way? Yes. Yeah It doesn't work for a style. So yeah, I mean if it works for you great, but for most I think it's just you know It clutters your screen. So EMA EMA is actually for longer term trading. Yes swing trades long term But we are not for stopping intraday intraday day trading EMA doesn't work swing trading it's yeah, they could use it for that It's great, but I was showing him scalping charts with the EMAs and all this crap and I mean He was blunt because he was like, bro, don't send me any charts with this stuff So I'm like, okay So I took it off But yeah, it took me a little while because I'm stubborn So six months you started to take it off and then how so so what so what happened once you took it off What did you start doing? How how'd you start? Yeah I I honestly just gave up on like the other stuff I learned and I started following the process I mean, it's sad to say but even six months into it. I was kind of like wait when this hits this EMA I'm gonna shore, you know, it was like Why don't you just follow the lines bro? Like, I don't know I'm stupid sometimes, you know So I I didn't believe it was that easy. I didn't believe that it was that easy. So I still get that today guys I the hardest part is like How could this fucking work? It cannot be this simple You know, it's like so my so I tell everybody small size tiny size do it repetition over and over until you believe it You know, so it's kind of like The thing with your kid, right? You touch the stove was You keep touching until you bring your whole Yeah Right, right, exactly Yeah, so now like I'm a thousand percent dedicated. They might see process I don't have any issues with with any of the old habits Um, the only thing that I learned before there was beneficial is like a little bit of volume Like understanding volume a little but honestly 99 of what I learned is all wasted time Just wasted waste because you because you know what man? We are carrying such small positions in terms of relations to hedge funds that we are actually nimble enough to go in and out And so that's why we don't need all these fancy long-term shit because you cannot get rid of 50 million shares in one day So they use the MAs they use all these fucking fibonage or whatever the hell they use, right? But for us we have the advantage. I mean Making a thousand dollars a dream for many people But make a thousand dollars if you notice man, this doesn't doesn't take that much size You know if you it adds up very quickly guys So so that's why these indicators it may work for you But that's why I don't use them because first of all the key the key to anything in life is simplicity You know, I was an engineer the best designs are not the over complicated designs. They're most simplistic designs That's where the genius comes people think that if you see someone talking all fancy, they don't know shit I'm very college educated. I have degrees in engineering math philosophy But you know, I don't come off as a fucking scholar But if you want me to debate scholar stuff or mathematical fucking shit, I can't I'm like see you at it So I see these guys trying to create new mathematical bullshit They didn't even go to fucking finish high school And and that's the thing guys I call it keep it simple stupid kiss. Hey, I said I was that from engineering Um, what the answer to most things in life is the most obvious Simplistic answer do not overthink You know, do not over fucking think Uh trade what you see You know, that's what it is the lines are what you see So I'm glad see I mean dude So tell us your tell me your your plan now for the future. What is your goal for trading? Like do you have plans to like how do you increase size? What is your goal to to get to the next step or to be honest? You don't need to get to the next step guys most people are happy making what they're making Don't get into this belief that you have to compete with anybody else except yourself You know, so go ahead. Yeah for me a lot of people might think it's strange, but I Like when you travel you're kind of a nomad you can't really Be attached to material things because like My car I I left it and my parents took over the payment and it's theirs now I mean, I I don't I can't like travel my most valuable possession is like my laptop, right? Like I don't have Anything valuable because that's the life I want to live right now. I want to travel and I want freedom So that being said keep it simple keep it simple and I I don't like a lot of stress I mean the reason I quit my job was to get away because I I used to develop real estate, right? I developed shopping malls and condos and hotels and I it's uh Fun, but stressful, right? So I wanted to get away from all that I wanted to simplify my life Honestly, I had some AFib, which is like a heart palpitations a couple years back And I said man, I got to get rid of the stress So they did a surgery they fixed it And I said man, I just need to like live my dream and have like as little stress as possible So for profit life life is short, man Yeah, like it's all about your freedom and enjoying your life as far as I'm concerned So for profits, I don't even have this crazy goal to make like a lot of money. I just want to bank Two to five grand a month. I could do whatever I want with that. I could put a little in savings I mean, even if I ever got to like a really high level of trading With skill, I probably won't even put a lot of size on because I just don't need the stress It's just it's based on your personality. Some guys could handle that stress well But I just need a little money to to just live my life five grand a month Maybe a little more You're a little money is a lot of money from mc Oh, right? Life is all about being it's perspective. So let me tell you my story So that when I was young dude, I was I want to make the most money bank bank bank bank And I actually went down in size I'm like Steve now. I'm like, man, I don't want this fucking stress I have I have this famous thing. I said, uh, you only you only need to get rich once Once you get there, don't fucking lose it. I don't want to be the guy that's the bounce back kid No, dude I'm like, dude Like down a million up a million, you know, yeah And then how about you? You only need to get rich once when you get rich fucking lock that shit up like tighter than a butthole in prison, right? So But uh So I I doubt sign it and so basically I'm trading to support my drinking habits or whatever it may be We should still line up like today I mean, I made somebody last weekend today, you know, so I mean my drinking habits are larger than most but uh I'm just joking about the drinking bit maybe but um, but you know, man, you trade to your own lifestyles There's no competition and that's the problem before because in trading you can never be the top You make a million dollars a day Million dollars a day every day You will be nothing compared to Steve Cohen who makes billions of a year, right? So so there is so I realized in life I mean, dude, I my biggest day. This was Jesus This is like almost 10 years ago. That's a lot of money 10 years ago. Okay, like 1.4 million one day four hours You imagine with inflation how much that would be back then right like three four million, right? So I mean nowadays it's so basically that that that actually was a One of the happiest of trading days, but also the saddest because I'm like now what I didn't mean it did not make me happy. I realized that now what man I I fucking was dude. I didn't take a vacation for years by You know, I went through a divorce It was fucking miserable. I was the richest of my life Making more money. They can possibly ever fucking spend each day on making $50,000 a day Like waking up and like dude for what irs takes most of it my ex wife took most of it And so so that I realized you know, man It's not worth it It was only for ego And it's like a video game with no ending I hate those video games because I love I mean, I love role-playing games I stopped playing because I could play that shit for three years and there'd be no ending Your level thousand barbarians now your level 2000 Tell me there's no ending. You're right And so it's got this is an endless game of High scores and so so the moment you realize perspective how much a hundred dollars really is guys you make a thousand dollars a day $500 a day Go walk into a normal store target Costco Can you fucking spend that? I mean just being a normal human being right not buying some stupid Gucci shit, but Like Steve says man fucking two five thousand a year you can travel the fucking world Um, you can't fucking yeah, you can't go London or Paris, but Western Europe. Yeah, you know, I mean you need a little bit more for sure, but like generally Yeah, so average, I mean That's that's what I'm trying to tell you guys man So when I'm looking at my P and L seriously when I make some days I make it so easy guys like you make five grand so easy, right? And I'm a five grand within 15 minutes. I'm like Seems fucking too easy and I'm getting greedy. I'm like, why can't I make 10? Why can't I make 20? And that's how you lose your money back, but then when I go think about this Fuck man, how can I spend five thousand dollars in fucking one day? I mean, you know, I fucking tried unless I'm buying stupid shit, obviously, but I can eat the best restaurants $200 for myself 300 bucks 500 bucks doesn't buy fancy as ball one $30 ball one It's still not gonna be five thousand you say whatever it may be in your lifestyle That's my point. This is why each week I walk at into a Costco To remind myself how much a hundred dollars really is Because when I was young man hundred dollars like holy shit, you know, that'd be allowed for a fucking month, right? Um, and so I'm looking at these iPods, huh 150 bucks Eh, I'm like dude 150 dollars. That's my low-key bill. Yeah My commission's these days already like 500 800 dollars a day, right? And so I'm like but then in real life Hmm So that's why so the alice keep the section one dollars on his desk for that reason remind him But that's also because uh, some other reasons that he needs one But that's exactly what it is man, you have to follow yourself guys You know when I was making that much money back then I was looking at guys making more money. I like And I like fuck dude You know, so you have to this is a secret trade also you have to be Equated back to reality and that's what keeps you in check. That's what keeps you from blowing up, you know You have goals you have payments to you know my goal to make a thousand dollars So I can pay my payments this year whatever it may be right this month So when you make it lock it up things like that so But great any last advice see Yeah, I mean I do so like And I I say it all the time like to people i'm gaming or in main uh after hours, but here's the thing If you're struggling, I mean, there's no secret. It's really simple and bow said it earlier You need to size down Trade smaller shares use maybe wider stops if you're getting stopped out all the time And dedicate yourself to education first Yeah, because you know what man, I see guys trading strategies that do not work, but they don't know it So they're chasing down the wrong radical all the time such as Steve was trying to make EMAs work for day trading I mean what shit doesn't work doesn't fucking work You know, and so you you have to learn from someone that's been there that shows you that these are the proven strategies So so that's what's very difficult. You are trying to reinvent the wheel the wheels already been invented It's it's and it's easy Yeah, it's simple not even simple yet the hardest thing is the mental right the mental The mental the risk management part that was probably my biggest struggle and and I struggled with that for a while Uh, it's not easy. We all struggle that we all struggle that and you know how you mitigate it guys Do not trust yourself You have to have the broker checks that you do right? because we we Break our fucking rules every fucking day And think we can get away with it Oh shoot Steve went dead Croatia end of that Hey you back Steve I'm back. Sorry bad connection. Yeah Croatia, bro So so I showed so I told I was talking about Humans cannot be trusted man You have to put the broker checks in it's like having a seat belt and an airbag and a bumper in front of you If you want to go racing put on your seat belt I'm telling you that the seat belt won't work. You need an airbag and a bumper Yeah, so you need many forms of checks Right, so so Steve not only has tell us tell us all your your checks before we log off. Ah, so I've got uh max daily loss Auto liquidation and then I've got max loss per ticker Right, and that's a different amount. Yeah, so I can't lose more the next amount on one ticker Then I can't lose x amount in a day. It all auto liquidates me. Okay Uh second. I always use stops. Sorry That's good. So you have four checks Always use stops and I've got a max shares because I talked to somebody a while back who put on 25 000 shares by accident and You know had a bad day. So I use the max shares. Yeah Yeah, I do that too. I have max shares on my account, so um You don't want to hit the wrong key. Yeah So how why is your max loss that how many days of losses? To So it's two for my max It's two for my max and it's like a little or around one for my each ticker That's smart, bro. That's smart. You see how he does it. Yeah on his worst days He does not want to give back more than two days of hard work And that's how you do it and not more than one day on one ticker. Yeah, if the ticker's not treating me right I'm done with it. You know what I mean? Like it's it can't hurt me that bad So that I just want to notice what steven. This is what changes Trading in my opinion. It's the fact that he went from a guy with this is absolutely no risk management whatsoever to now being the guy that's like overly riskful, which is good And trading is fucking good and he listened to all we said And unfortunately, unfortunately, I learned it the hard way because I was stubborn You guys don't need to be so stubborn. You don't need to think you're so smart You need to humble yourself come in fresh learn everything you can dedicate yourself to my C Be in it for the long the long haul. I mean if you just join on a month I don't know what you're going to learn in the month. You got to dedicate yourself to the community Dedicate yourself to education risk management first p&l is later The more you focus on it before you know what you're doing the more you're going to get in trouble Yep, so all right. Thanks, Steve. We'll see you back in the room Appreciate you. Congrats. Congrats, man. You're now with the misc forever. So I appreciate it brother. Thank you very much.
