Key moments

[04:10] If there's a person out there that made it possible and made it happen, everybody else can do it too.
[09:15] You have to understand one thing, the profit and money is never yours until you close.
[12:20] You have to be very sharp minded, and you have to be very disciplined. And you have to be logical about everything and strategic about every single movie you take.
[16:02] You have to really lock in in this industry, if you really want to make money, you have to really lock in.
[16:54] 97% people fail in this industry. You know why? Because they don't try.
[17:15] You have to detach yourself from the blue screen. You have to detach yourself from the Rolexes, chauffeurs, all that crazy lifestyle that has to go away from your mind and you have to just focus on this, trading

Key moments

[09:10] Losing is [part of the game], you need to figure it out by yourself and people don't know that.
[11:08] Never give up. This is not a fast process. It takes time.
[14:41] You need to first look at the chart, study how price moves and then you make a plan.
[16:25] You need to learn yourself how to enter and exit the trade.
[20:34] When you lose your money, it hurts. When you lose a funded account, it's not going to hurt too much.

Show notes

Cas Daamen shares his journey to becoming a profitable trader and offers advice for aspiring traders. He emphasizes the importance of transitioning from discretionary to mechanical trading and keeping a simple system.

Full episode + show notes: https://tradingnut.com/cas-daamen-3/

Key moments

[01:09] Most people have a discretionary style of trading, but discretionary trading relies on experience which you don't have as a beginner.
[06:50] If you analyze the performance of hedge funds and really good firms and good traders, they don't win every month.
[06:57] Having realistic expectations, knowing what you can achieve with trading, combining that with the right chart knowledge, is a great way to start and develop as a trader.
[08:41] Becoming a profitable trader really comes down to three main things, having a strategy with edge that fits with your personality, having the balls to trade the strategy during the good and bad periods, and being
[11:43] Focus on learning how to properly back test something.
[14:38] Learn supply and demand, learn a bit of order flow and level 2 data.

Full episode + show notes: https://tradingnut.com/jason-shapiro/

Key moments

[08:01] Being a contrarian can get you very run over, if you’re doing it in a weird, stubborn kind of way.
[08:46] No matter what you do, no matter what kind of trading you do, you have to let the market confirm what you want to do first.
[16:33] If you’re trying to beat the market, you have to beat the discounting mechanism.
[18:22] You’re certainly not going to predict the future better than the market because the market is everyone in the world predicting the future at the same time.
[21:11] You just have to keep sticking to the process and let it work for you over time.
[29:05] You’d rather be in the trends that are not crowded and not be in the ones that are massively crowded.
[44:21] Quit trying to outsmart the market and just focus on making money.
[48:06] The only difference between a guy that works for a hedge fun and manages $1Billion and you or some retail trader, the only difference is the business cards.
[49:13] If you want to be part of a very small amount of people, then you have to think differently than the large amount of people.
[57:38] The more in life that you give, the more you get back.

Full episode + show notes: https://tradingnut.com/the-hunter-setup/

Key moments

[13:44] If you take away the timeframe, you have no clue what chart you’re looking at.
[15:27] All these concepts are kind of laid between two candles, one’s telling the story, the other’s going to give you the opportunity.
[41:51] Understand the fractality of the market, understand that this happens all across the board every timeframe.
[43:38] Taking breaks from trading was good on the mental space.
[46:09] Go look at one candlestick and how it evolves. That’s a huge foundation.
[47:10] Go study one candle, watch how it uses the opening price, watch how it forms a low and then trades back the opening price and study how quickly it runs after that opening price.
[47:26] Just look at the internals of one candlestick and start to get familiar with what a 60-minute candle looks like on a 15-second or 1-minute chart.

Full episode + show notes: https://tradingnut.com/emmanuel-osahon/

Key moments

[07:57] In life, if you are hungry enough for something you really want, something you are determined, you are willing to push through, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.
[10:52] If you want consistency in the market, you have to approach the market with a high degree of consistency.
[13:56] As a trader, your goal is to build the reticular activating system of your brain to recognize patterns.
[34:35] Trading is very lonely and very monetary.
[37:42] Trading is like a mirror. It is a reflection of you, and it has a way of bringing out the things that you’re experiencing.
[46:35] In order for you to be a great trader, you have to be a good loser.
[48:27] If you come into the market, you have to understand that you are going to lose and you’re going to have problems that you’re experiencing.
[49:24] If you can solve the problems that you are experiencing, it will allow you to go to the next level.
[51:45] Don’t focus on the money. Don’t focus on the lifestyle. Focus on mastering the craft in order for you to go to the next level.
[52:34] You have to first give the market consistency. Consistency in your learning, consistency in showing up at the same time every single day.
[53:28] You need a strong level of mental fortitude in order to be a trader.

Full episode + show notes: https://tradingnut.com/arturo-pestana/

Key moments

[05:17] Even if you don’t have the money to invest, you can still invest the time.
[05:52] To become a profitable trader, you have to look at certain setups that works for you and only trade those setups.
[08:06] The thing about the market is that it repeats itself over and over again.
[10:20] If you don’t know what you’re doing, you’re gambling.
[11:25] The best way to test a strategy is with the robot.
[23:51] Your strategy shouldn’t change whether you’re winning or losing.
[26:27] You as a trader aren’t defined by a winning or a losing trade.
[45:56] Don’t rush that process. You have your own journey. Pay attention to your own life, take control and really dial in.
[46:39] If you’re up $6000 on your funded account and you make $5000 at your regular job, stop trading.
[46:52] Take it slow, secure the bag and just focus on you.
[47:19] Mastering your journal is going to be your best mentor.

Key moments

[04:23] You need to have that hard work mentality, not giving up the winning mentality.
[07:21] Sports and trading have one similar thing; you have to perform by yourself.
[35:53] Just remove everything. Just don’t watch any social media. Don’t watch any other traders.
