Tom - you're a true gem in the FinTwit world!! We appreciated the vulnerability and the tough journey back from the heartache you experienced. Just a stud of a trader all around. I'm a fan!!
This is the realest interview on trading I’ve ever watched. I’m super thankful For this interview. I’m gonna still watch it again and again. It resonates with me. Thank you so much Tom and Richard.
WOW! One of your best interviews!!! Every one who has been trading for a year or more should see this. The real deal. Thanks for Tom being so raw and honest.

Wow! Wow! Wow! This was a spectacular presentation by Tom. I've been trading a long time and can identify with everything he was talking about. Such a powerful message about your emotions and he was so forthcoming, sincere and down to earth. I really held on his every word. Thank you so much TraderLion!
This interview with Tom was the best find!! Tom is a real human being with all the real human emotions! Appreciate Tom very much! A big hug for him. Thanks to Richard for finding such a gem!
one of the best human MR Tom, I have come across beyond a great investor . All strength to you and what you have achieved not only for yourself but for your family also.
Thank you for sharing Richard. This is the most important and real interview I have ever seen in my ten years as a trader. And I have seen a lot of great interviews. Incredible reality shared by Tom here that any new trader or experienced should see.
By far the best video talking about the emotional aspect of trading. Only someone who has traded consistently will understand the trials and tribulations that us traders go through! Thanks Tom sharing your experience.
Wow. This was what I needed. I can relate to this guy so much in regards to emotions and keeping control of them. The "why did I do that" question is something I ask myself too often. Thanks for the interview Richard.
This was such a great interview. Tom is such a great trader. I resonate with a lot of things he said. I myself made the mistake of having a very big pisition and lost quite a bit of money. This thought me to always start small and add and sell along the way with predetermined stop loss.
This is a psychological thriller this guy is speaking the trader's truth he is giving away gold,diamond's and gem stone's.He is the real deal this is psychology at it's best and I'm not talking about making money.He is getting into the nut's and bolt's of how mind work's,great interview Rich thank's.
for me, probably it is the best interview from the psychology side, from the perspective ... that beside act as a trader we are also no more than a "basic common" human .... thanks a lot to TL's team. 🙏🙏👍👍
So right about avoiding the 'noise' of social media and constant stock market chat. It distracts, induces unnecessary fear and FOMO, confuses, creates bias. It's useful for the odd list of leaders, but apart from that, it's toxic to a successful trading mentality.
I asked a question earlier but I deleted. Cuz I realize Richard already gave me all the information I need. And I want it on a silver platter lol. I need to watch all your videos and pick it out myself for long term success 🙌 thank you for all your time and effort
28:20 time frame of trades 30min chart over 2-3 days- hit and run trades (big cap), 41:30 3-4 periods of 3 to 6 week windows in a year. 43:20 - enough time for year ! 1:06:45 -need just1 set up
Tom, you're such a great person straight forward no bullshit, thanks for sharing your experience and I wish you all the best. Richard: one of your best interviews, thanks 🙏
Great interview - I can relate to going to the market to tell me I am o.k.. I was in the hospital for major surgery, took a big leveraged bet in pre-op right in front of the FOMC - lost 80% of acct. I had been very consistent in making profits the last 2.5 years most every week up until my scary operation.
Omg this guys starting story is almost just like mine 🤦🏽♂️ started with $50k capital (on webull to be exact) blew that shit to $700 in LITERALLY 2 weeks. Took me about 2 and a half years to FULLY get comfortable with trading full time.
Wow amazing insights, learnt so much. specially the part where you take your most of the profit after 8-15 percent from pivot climax run. hoping for a 20%-40% mover is not realistic every time.
it must be nice to get bailed out with a 100k loan from your parents. That being said.. I did appreciate the insight from Tom and I got a lot of value out of this video so thank you Tom and Richard
Lordy. A 100k loan just handed to him. If I gathered the life savings of every living family member I have, maybe I would have 20k. Edit: Just to be clear, I still really enjoyed the video. Hopefully one day I get to the point where I'm so successful I start to worry about my giant position sizes. Edit edit: He's got a Michael Keaton vibe going on.

Every trader should watch this interview multiple times. Raw and Real stories about what it takes to become a full time trader.
I agree but think everyone should listen to the whole conference. 10/10. Well done
@@Karim.711 Thank you!
Fixing and fitting trades with market conditions, riding trends and taking stop loss when wrong. A good day: Only take a chunk of reliable moves
Yes 100k from your dad
love how brutally honest tom is. we need more of this from professional traders

@@TraderLion Alarming thu that this business is so hard that pro s turn into teaching selling courses instead of trading.
THIS IS THE MOST REALIST, MOST HEART FELT, AND HELPFUL PODCAST IVE LISTENED TO IN A LONG TIME.. every trader should listen to this..
Yes 🙌
Probably one of the best interview for me, its almost a relief to hear what he says. Thanks Richard for making this possible

Great interview - really like the focus on the challenges of being dependent on trading for your full time income.

Thanks for watching!

I had been very consistent in making profits the last 2.5 years most every week up until my scary operation.
I'm sorry to hear that, but glad you're doing better! Nearly every trader goes through one of these events (whether they like to admit it or not).
Omg this guys starting story is almost just like mine 🤦🏽♂️ started with $50k capital (on webull to be exact) blew that shit to $700 in LITERALLY 2 weeks. Took me about 2 and a half years to FULLY get comfortable with trading full time.
Thank you Gentleman’s I need it to hear that!
We all do at some point, that's why we shared it!
“…you just start making sh## up” -Tom 🔥🔥best quote
When someone tells me that they want to be trader, I will direct them to this interview
Wow amazing insights, learnt so much. specially the part where you take your most of the profit after 8-15 percent from pivot climax run. hoping for a 20%-40% mover is not realistic every time.
Thanks for watching
Thank you, great interview. Good lessons on position sizing.
Thanks for watching Sunil!
We need tom back on Twitter
Yes that would be awesome!
Would really like going over charts with this guy
Yes
nice interview top guy my respect for him, is hard for us as men talk about the kind of stuff
Pure gold.
Yesss!
Flat out AMAZING
would love if you had this on a podcast too
We will do that for sure!
Pure gold
I resonated with what he is saying
Glad you found it helpful!
awesome... and thank you
Sure thing! We're glad Tom was able to share his story.
Thanks
Wow this is amazing
“…why you buy so much” -Tom’s wife 🔥🔥great interview
it must be nice to get bailed out with a 100k loan from your parents.
That being said.. I did appreciate the insight from Tom and I got a lot of value out of this video so thank you Tom and Richard
good interview
Thanks!
THE BEST!!!!
100%
Lordy. A 100k loan just handed to him. If I gathered the life savings of every living family member I have, maybe I would have 20k.
Edit: Just to be clear, I still really enjoyed the video. Hopefully one day I get to the point where I'm so successful I start to worry about my giant position sizes.
Edit edit: He's got a Michael Keaton vibe going on.
Be at peace with who you are........thanks for putting your heart & soul...in this interview.... CARLOTHEMOVIE
half a million in an hour? I'd be crying too!!!
Tom made me laugh at how honest he was about this psychology of trying to win big
Tom did everyone a huge favor being as honest as he was in this interview.
What happened with the Twitter of Tom?
He's no longer posting, but last we heard he was doing great.
@@TraderLion lol
Damn his dad gave him 100k and I’m struggling through prop firms lol must be nice
Que gran entrevista tan real 👌
I cant wait until I can own 8,000 shares of a stock that isnt a penny stock. WOW.
👏👏
Too bad there was no screen share of his setup
Hopefully losing half a million scared this dude into using stops. How do you let a position drop like 70%?
Did you listen to his explanation? He had stops.
Twentieth Century Reminiscences of a Stock Operator stuff! Such great insights from a great guy. Gotta love @canny4
