  1. When it comes to investing, we want our money to grow with the highest rates of return, and the lowest risk possible. While there are no shortcuts to getting rich, there are smart ways to go about it

  2. Day trading is worst than Roulette. Long term trading is better. Especially at least one month wait. There are stocks are on the upswing. And rise during seasonal or perhaps natural disasters. Upswing stocks: are future proof to likely do well. Seasonal is during x-mas…what company is likely to do well for example. Natural disaster is when hurricane hits… what stores will do well. Speculation on minerals is one of the riskiest thing to invest in. Unless its lithium due to cars going from gasoline to EV progression.

  3. It´s always nice to hear from people who had losses from trading (please don´t understand that wrong), because I am so EXTREMELY fed up with being in day-trading / stock forums on the internet where I will constantly have to hear from people who took big risks and are now bragging about how they won. I can´t remember that even ONE user in those forums ever told about a personal trading loss. However having losses is also what improves ones trading. I´ve had some substantial losses on my day trading, however nothing that ruins me or blows my account – and those losses from mainly 3 trades only occured due to my own stupidity – so I learned a whole lot from those.

  4. If only you know what the future says, you'll know that indeed cryptocurrency is the future, investing in it now will be the wisest thing to do..

  5. Dude 👆🏻perfect does all of this to make us happy. They are legends.

  7. In conclusion, you tried every way possible and lost 350k… why just pause, build your own strategy (I haven't heard anything about that) and focus on ONE product?

    I was so successful in the beginning and felt untouchable.
    Then I took two trades I held and lost 40k in two days.
    After a few other unsuccessful trades I paused.
    Here is the catch:
    Then I began working on my own strategy by using Trade Ideas and focus only on the daily top penny stock(s).
    Most of the time I only use technical analysis and news for confirmation.
    Focus on what matters!

  8. I don't think most people understand doing stocks is a probability game. End of the day being right 100% is impossible, you control your risk to reward along with probability of your play working out. You have certain guidelines that allow you to take the trade and you have your stop at a certain level. This becomes more complex when people don't want to lose and are scared of losing money. End of the day trading isn't for everyone

  9. You are Lack of Technical Analysis my Friend you're only Just focusing on Fundamentals.

  10. I love that you talked about stop-losses and managing risk. Every day trader eventually learns this lesson…some harder than others…

  11. Diversified closed end fund trading even with leverage would have been much better for you, good luck 🍀 in your future investments.

  12. Moral would be.. Don't go by sentiments..only numbers…

    I would divide my investments in 10 different sectors equally…

    As soon as any of them gone 5% up…would sell them..and then choose 2 emerging stock in that sector or the second best stock ( based on charts and company books )…

    I recovered the lost amount and now operating other people accounts on 25% yearly profit sharing..

    Over a period of 11 years..Learned Day trading.. Short term positional trading…long term trading…currency trading..and now doing options since last 2 years

  13. Didn’t you know day trading is gambling ? I make money the old fashion way….mutual funds. I started with only $100k, 25 years of compound interest, and now I have $1M.

  14. Man this video made me feel better invested 30k got up to 60 grand! Then lost all profits and Got out with 27k! Stock trading is very stressful

  15. I made $80,000 in a couple of hours last week and today I gave it back with one mistake daytrading. I am devastated 😩

  16. I'm sorry that I laughed so hard at this. This was probably a distressing event for you. As an experienced trader I'd like to leave them advice for whoever is entering into an investment like this. Open a chart of the asset that you intend to invest in and place a 200 day moving average on your chart Only buy that asset when it's above it's 200 day moving average and only short sell it when it's below the 200. If you're long and it dips below it 200 that's where your stoploss should be placed. If you haven't been trading for years and don't know how to trade, then this simple procedure will protect you from the vast majority of catastrophic losses. Put it on your charts and see if most of the worst losses aren't, in fact, underneath it.

  17. Thanks for sharing your journey and your life tips. A lot of what you said is very true, trading alone you are at a huge disadvantage, and 90% of daytraders lose. Just curious if doing this Youtube channel is your main source of income now, because you sharing about your life is valuable to others so they can learn from that. Interesting that even after you backtested a few systems, it made so little. That's a good lesson learned. Consistent losing could be a form of addiction and wondering if you went to therapy/life coach to understand yourself better, why you would let yourself lose that much money/what you value in life. 350k is not just a lamborghini, it's the cost of raising one child to end of college or so. So for ppl who lost that much, they lost a child. Or a house. You can think of it that way. I wish that you can stop losing and that God will bless you. I think you are doing the world a favor by sharing your story. Thanks

  18. Lost half of my portfolio today and trying to deal with the losses. So I’m on a binge of watching others big losses 😭

  19. Wait I have sooo many questions like what effect did loosing 350K have on your mental?? Because you don’t even sound fazed…also why do you still trade after losing so much money??? As I see you trade Crypto currencies….You then say it’s not much to learn from losing $350,000 so then why did you make this video??? and lastly are you suggesting to not daytrade?? Because you didn’t leave us with any final thoughts

  20. also im suprised that you would deploy an algorithm then be suprised by the commission fees… that should have been backtested and paper account tested rigorously before deployment

  21. i did find it rather funny when he said he likes to work in nice clean offices but the video is being filmed in a shed with stuff laying everywhere… sorry for sounding like a jerk lol

  22. I'm at about -400k unrealized losses. I have yet to sell, and I came across this video. I was actually UP 500k.. so had invest 450k, doubled it to 950k, but I didn't sell? Something was wrong with me? Why didn't I sell. I was going through alot of family stuff. Now my 450k investment is worth 150k and I haven't sold yet. So I have 800k unrealized loss right now and I'm sleep n my truck since last August waiting for my stock to go back up but it didn't its just going down all year

  23. What you should learn are risk management and trading psychology, technical analysis only is not enough to be successful in day trading.

  24. I have a similar story but fortunately for me the 300k I lost in options trading were profits I had accumulated a month before.. pretty much racked up 300k in profits in one month and lost it all a month later.
