[04:11] "You have to teach yourself all of these rules that don't work anymore."
[05:12] "One day when you're not trading… sit quiet and start thinking about the mistakes that you made. Why did you do it?"
[06:27] "You have to replace them with the good ones… those are the rules that now need to run through your brain every day."
[08:29] "The more you can get your system to be automated and not need you, the more free you will be in your life."
[13:08] "You've already cashed the check in your mind. It's not yours because you didn't trade it. Until you trade it, the money is not yours."
[13:48] "Humans… don't judge gain and loss the same way. It's always about the loss."
[14:58] "Watch a professional poker player… if you want the skill, find the person who's mastered it."
[21:10] "You are always the limit of your success. Period."
[24:17] "The peer group keeps you honest. It makes it so you can't lie to yourself."

Key moments

[13:17] "No matter what you trade—options, futures, crypto—they all have volume, price, and order flow."
[17:30] "You have to be uncomfortable with not knowing 100% which direction the market is going."
[18:25] "The biggest problem for people that don't trade is the expectations."
[20:05] "It is really risk management. You can be a 30% trader with a 200% gain in a week."
[21:10] "For a professional trader, we're trying to make the right decision. Even if the right decision is to cut and take the loss early, it's the right decision."
[21:31] "It's okay to take small losses. It's okay to be wrong."
[22:25] "Look at the net profitable, your weekly goals, your monthly goals. Don't look at one trade."
[23:20] "You should be able to show everybody what trade you take. It keeps them accountable. If you don't want to share the trade, then you're doing something wrong."
[24:12] "To be a good trader, you have to be adaptable. You have to learn how to adapt on the fly."
[28:05] The best investment you can make is in your understanding. Always try to gain clarity."
[28:18] Never say that you're new. Say that you're a professional. Be a student of any profession you join."
