I must say this happened the same to me too . Last year, I quit my job to pursue trading which was a horrible idea to do it and I ended up losing all my money. And even worse part was that there was no job to be found due to pendamic but luckily last year before Christmas I found a job with the competitor organization giving me a better pay. But I will not give up because I knew then and I know now that I can do it. Just gotta be more disciplined. All the best to all the traders out there!
Yeah. You have to always stick to what works for you. For me. I follow the macd with a 10 time average and go from there. I made 14k out of the 25k I put into my account. But as soon as I increased the amount I trade with I'm currently down 4k because I got scared, didn't wake up almost every day ( I try to trade every day) and left a Position thinking it was gonna fail when in reality it moved in my favor. Lol
OMGEE I did the same thing!!! I quit 2 different jobs on my third soon. I just got funded but quitting those jobs helped a lot! I was able to dedicate time to learn. But this job is remote so I’ll be here for a little bit.
focus on price action and smart money concepts learn them thoroughly and understand them because strategies are temporary they are always changing and you will lose a tonne of money all the best
Trading is mostly between your ears. It is a lot of reading, practicing, learning, adjustment, and managing your emotions. No wonder very few try this or give up in the early phase. Stay strong!
The authenticity of sharing your journey and the comment section is all I needed. Didn't realize how similar my path was to many others. Thanks for sharing
when you come back from that depression phase, that is when you are your strongest. Most people can't get over it. Just keep showing up and getting that screen time. I went from I gotta get this down in a x amount of time to I'm sticking thru this because this is what I want to do. If your WHY is money, you will never make it. Find your why and fill in the gap to your why
Your energy is contagious, man. Thanks for sharing. I'm at the part where I know my edge, but I still struggle with the discipline required to execute it without all the noise. Taking trades that my own rules dictate I shouldn't, because I'm focused on getting that profit, instead of trusting it will come.. its easier said than done. Quit my job and after a year got a part time job on the weekends to help pay the bills. Here's to not blowing up my account. 🙏
Hi Invest in a secure platform and broker where you will not lose your funds. I'm new to trading, but I met Mr. Raini Titan here on TH-cam where he teaches people to trade forex and stocks. which he guides me with a super platform and amazing strategy. I thought it was a scam, but finally I cashed my first $ 57,000 profit last week, he is very reliable and honest, he always tells me the actual time of buying and selling with 100 profit from his one-on-one master training.....Stay bless..
Same situation. I've seen a number of comments to this effect here too. I was lucky enough to go through that first round (I got laid off), but then jump to the part where i found the easy gig to allow the side gig as well. Now focussing on the discipline part, which is truly the hard part. Nice to see you make it through to the other side B. Good luck all! Don't quit 💪
@@thegravelbro It was a interesting the way it worked out I suppose. I was trying to climb the corporate ladder (=lots of hours) when i got laid off. I took a year off, realized I wanted to trade, but also realized I needed a job to pay bills. I purposely found a 'demotion' of a job that was more entry level with the ability to fully work from home (that was key). So, my position is just.. easier. I can accomplish what I need to quickly, allowing me time to multi-task and keep working on trading. I hope this helps and you find what you're looking for 🙂
Omg what a life changing video! So glad I came across this. I am actually walking the same path you already walked. Literally Im talking to myself about quitting my corporate job because I work and trade and multitasking had me hit major losses. Also the last sentence, its all in your head and how you view yourself as a trader. I need to break that barrier.
Thanks Alex! Just a few days ago I was feeling like I finally dialed it in and everything “clicked”! Then the last two days I completely couldn’t make any trades work but came back today and broke even but felt like a degenerative gambler today without a solid process. Thanks for your encouraging video!
Every "single" word make sense. And I assume that high percentage of traders that just watched this video felt, experienced the same way on part of their journey. Thank God I found your video I'm almost at my mental breakdown chasing what I loved and what I really want.
You said almost everything that happening to me right now. I’m almost ready to quit my job to day trade . Yes it is very hard to make that decision. Happy for you . My plan to quite my job with in 4-6 months from now. I prepared my self almost like what you do . I will give update when I quit. Thanx for you inspiration video.
I quit my job for a short period about 5-6 months . Unfortunatly i lost all my trading money(a lot) . Now i got a new job . Now I belive stock option trading is wasting money , time and health. i dont want and i am not going to trade stock option again.
Thanks for sharing, I'm sorta in the middle of a similar journey... While I currently live on the other side of the world, I work my day job, and learn to trade at night. After 4 months Im still keeping it small, but actual money... Basically breaking even at this point and I'm proud of that!
Thank you! I am back at a job I quit to pursue trading and have been extremely hard on myself as I distanced myself from a passion I had which was trading. This gave me goosebumps and reminded me I’m not alone in this journey.
Wow inspirational story everything you described is what I’m feeling and going through and as 38 yr old with 3 kids and a wife it is not easy to quit your job and start over but for once in my life I truly feel I found my true passion your story just motivated me and I will take notes on everything you just explained hopefully I can become successful at trading one day and you can interview me lol great job keep up the good work true motivation.
Very inspirational, thank you for sharing. I've been wanting to quit my job for many years now but haven't built up the courage and the funds to do so yet. The pandemic was a blessing in disguise for me because it gave me a chance to put more time into trading so it helped me to see what strategies that I was good at, and not so good at. I basically broke even, but what started to trip me up was the money I had saved up was getting lower and lower and no income coming in really messed with my psyche so I had to get a temporary job until my industry opened back up and I could go back out to work. Now that I'm back to work my goal right now is just to save as much as I can (more than a year) because the time off proved to me that I can do it but I just need to ensure that I have enough money put away to allow that to happen.
My situation currently is kind of the same like you was. I asked my employer to give me night shifts only so that I could have all morning and afternoon to trade. At the beginning of this year 2022 I started with a plan. I got 2 loans which add around 6.5k together. I said to myself I can use that money to day trade instead of waiting a year of money saved. I can make huge gains and pay down the loans with the gains in no time. If this works i’ll quit my job before 2022 ends. Boy was I wrong too. First month and I have made nothing. 3 months before 2021 ended I lost a lot too. So Im on my 5th month of loosing money. Luckily for me, I have not quit my job and I’m barely making it. I still have about 60% left from the loans but its all in swing trades, waiting for it to back up. I feel a connection with you when you say that even though you were loosing and not making any gains you still loved what you were doing. That’s exactly me. As soon as I learned about the stock market I knew this is what I want. I have had jobs of all kinds, I don’t like anything. I have really fell in love with the stock market and I won’t quit.
Thank you so much for sharing this! This really helped me out with my mindset and beliefs about what I do. I have been swing/position trading for almost two years. It is the most challenging and rewarding career I have ever endeavored.
This one hit home... I'm in the "work from home and trying to multitask with trading" phase. Thank you for making this video, this has given me more hope.
Great video and great introspection man. I just quit my corporate job to trade as well and you are hitting home with these points. Luckily I started off on a foot where I doubled my initial investment (I also saved about 1-2 years worth of expenses). I definitely got lucky.
Love hearing your adventure, great energy, and channel you’ve built. Wonder do you still trade yourself - is there an interview of you and your own current style and preferences?
Sounds just like me man. I’ve quit my job twice and now I’m in my current job thinking about quitting again to trade. Just have this strong urge to keep at it
I quit my job for the cause. I found it impossible to focus on trading and work a full time job. Even if you’re right on a trade you miss the exit because you were in a meeting. Yeah, you can preset buys and sells but you need to study live price action in real time over a long period of time to really get an understanding of what’s going on. Ive learned so much about trading and myself over the last 6 months by sticking my face in it every day. What’s fascinating is I used to loath Monday’s, now I can’t wait for Monday morning. Then you run into a week like this week and realize you still have a lot to learn. Geez, what a circus, 1000 point swings multiple times a day 🤪 There is no magic bullet, just keep doing it and you’ll get it.
@@2birddogsandawolfdog945 😅 Yep, My boss would get pissed when he’d hand me paperwork and tell him “wait a minute”. That’s probably the only benefit of being a vested employee. Who do these people think they are? I had to get out.
i agree with you, and think the same. it’s really hard to work and daytrade, for me aswell it was mostly contra productive. how is it going? market has been catastrophic this year.
@@nina777_doit Im surving this turbulence. For a while I was swing trading to avoid the daily stress, but Ive recently switched back to day trading with a new perspective. So far it’s working. I think the most important thing in this environment is to look a week out on market news, earnings, global politics, and try to anticipate any large fluctuations. Like today’s action, up up and away, pretty much for no good reason … until tomorrow. I think there may be short covering going on today, there really isn’t anything major tomorrow except for some earnings and housing numbers so who knows. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride to the elections so buckle up. And now Mr Xi over in china has acquired a lifetime time appointment so there’s another question mark surprise at any moment, of any day, of any week. One things for sure, gotta be careful, this is no time to be a hero, if you get a profit, take it, a twenty dollar win beats a twenty thousand dollar loss every time.
AWESOMMMMMEEEEE video. Your emotions and sentiment are vivid in this video!! Feels like trading. You're smiling, excited, then you have some not so happy topics, etc. Whewwwww!!
I don’t usually leave a comment, but I wanna say thanks for sharing your experience B. What you had was GRIT my friend, and that’s why you are where you are today, to be quiet honest if I was advising the old you, I would’ve said don’t drop everything you worked hard for, for something you are unsure of.
Thank you for sharing this story! While it's nice to hear about success stories for inspiration, when you're still at that 1-2 year mark ... content like THIS just resonates so much more! It gives me faith that there's still hope for me if I'm not profitable yet. Haha. Keep up the great work and content man!
Last part made me sad. I’ve lost 25k. I know a setup. But I keep trying to play every one. Gotta focus just on the one that matters. Thank you for sharing. I’ve quit my full time job and am working part time retail till I find a work from home job. (And trading) What kind of camera do you use? It’s very clear image quality.

This is hilarious and also very relatable. I’m in senior management in finance and contemplating the same. My spreadsheet says I’m gonna be super successful as a Trader…my spreadsheet that is! It’s harder and more mentally grueling than I thought. I’m going to keep my job or a similar remote job for at least 8 more years til I’m 50 😂. My responsible side is talking!!
I'm going through almost the exact situation. this is so helpful thank you for sharing! I've added this video to my list so I can go back and watch it whenever I need a reminder.

I am changing my job so I can focus more on trading. I have been break even for a year and feel confident I will be able to break through. I found this video randomly, but I’m excited that you have found success! I am hoping I can find success as well!
Awesome video dude. Funny enough am at the same spot right now. Been scared of leaving my job for the past 3 years but I feel am at my point. Where I rather take a stab at it than to never do it. At the end of the day side gigs are all over.
Oh man. You got me today. As I watching your video it was like as I’m telling my own story. I’m now on stage 2 of the journey und got back to work in Nov. again for the second time , lol. Luckily I’m living in Europe and should work from 12 pm to 8 pm EST. This is hard no doubt and isn’t for anybody seeking comfort in the process. Market got choppy for the last 3 month for me. But I’m doing it anyway, learning and adapting as mich as I could and I love it despite of all setbacks and emotional holes. I really really Thank you for sharing your journey and helping me and others. This really helps and glad being part of the trader community.
I have been working from home since the pandemic, but we are going back to the office in September. My job is easy enough for me to practice and trade. I went ahead and invested in a mentor, so I can finally trade the right way and Im glad I did. Instead of quitting I plan to retire. I don’t quite have the age for the full benefits but that’s how I plan to exit. My job is good about rehiring retirees. So that’s my plan by the end of the year.
I run two businesses, one a consultancy with a slow pace, one a web app. I work from home. I have a second screen and I paper trade. My dream is to make that second screen my first.
I hit a similar situation where I started running out of cash lol. Luckily I went back to my parents, no girlfriend or anything serious. Been paper Trading for 6months. Trading for over a year and a half. That's my huge advantage
I don't recommend paper trading. It'll not prepare you for the emotional hardships you'll encounter with trading. Trade with small, symbolic capital. Like 5 bucks.
Agree 100%. Paper is not reality, not emotion surging stress of risking giant money to try to grab 1/1,000th of it for day trades. Not even close…. And then I do it 70 times a day.
A great honest video and a good lesson for any new trader. I've always thought if you can't consistently trade profitably in a paper account throwing real money at it won't suddenly make you successful.
I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 80k in stocks (with the help of my Financial Advisor of course) and made about 246k, but guess what? I put it all back and traded with her again and now I'm rounding up close to a million.
The pandemic came and taught everyone the importance of having multiple stream of income, unfortunately having a nice paying job doesn't mean you are financial secured anymore. So we all need to put in an extra-income earning chance, like investments.
I agree with you, Covid taught us the importance of having a plan "B" income. You are not safe with just one paying job, when nobody knows what will happen next. Look at what happened to so many of u... Read more
Investment is that tiny line that separates the RICH from the POOR. The foolish from wise sorry to say. I can proudly say I am wise today because I can provide for my family through my investments.
Take it from one who has it and buy a house in Missouri and dream Wrangler with forex trade profits. I started with Mrs Dawn Fitzpatrick of financial education and she has been my handler and guider for the past years
WOW! This is basically my story. I saved up a year's worth of income, quit my job, and failed that year thinking I knew it all. Inspiring to hear your story. I'm saving up for round 2, but instead of going full-time like you did I have a part-time job so I can day trade every day and be stress-free. Even though I wanna quit badly, I'll be staying until I'm consistent which I know will take years. But I love day trading so much just like you that I cant even imagine myself doing anything else in the future.
Thanks for sharing this video brother, I'm in that boat where I really want to quit my job and pursue trading. It not that I hate my job but it's been very hard on my body and also I am growing to be miserable while working there cause I'm not growing and rather be trading. It's always uplifting to hear stories like this.
WOW! This really resonate to me because I'm in this phase right now. I just quit my Job as a nurse because I want to focus trading. I'm on my 18th month of trading now and I had a good track record in trading so far. Since I quit my Job I don't know for some reason I havent perfoming well.
Love your genuinity in your content. I think anyone who wants to get into trading full time needs to understand the importance of having multiple other sources of income not only for the inconstancy of the markets but to reduce the desperateness of "needing" to take a trade. I dont really know of any pro/successful traders who do not have other sources of income as well.
you havent looked very far then. There's 1000s of traders that have trading as an only source of income (outside of passive income with funds earnt from trading)
Reading about people grabbing multi-figures monthly as incomes in investments even in this crazy days in the market, any pointers on how to make substantial progress in earning? would appreciate..
You make it seem unreal to make up to that as a passive income annually, when its clearly possible. I have made over 1Hunred thousand dollars from May till now with no joke game plan. She’s a masterpiece and her name’s Magaret..
@@kevineleven8720 You don't have to be surprise because I'm also a huge beneficiary of Expert, I keep on earning $15,000 every single week with her trading platform.
5:11 man... My parents said they were really disappointed in me that I left school to pursue day trading. Now I'm paying their rent. It really bums me out cause now they tell everyone " oh yeah, I always knew he was smart" and all this other bs. It made me have such a deep core of resentment towards them, I rarely see them as a result now, but knowing they don't have to pay to live in their home makes it easy for the both of us to not communicate lol, I'm glad you have a supportive family and wife man. That is more rare than a profitable day trader. 😂
Some parents want to brag about their kids for good and bad reasons; so now, yours can brag. Do what you can to restore that relationship before they pass away.

Wonderful video - I loved going back in time to see you interact with your friend the day you quit, that was wild! Amazing person and amazing story 💪✊🤜👍👍
One thing Ive learned is don’t panic trade because you have to make money immediately. Be patient, wait for your set ups. What I’ve found is when you get into that nervous “I need a win” mindset you start seeing things in the charts that aren’t there. Its a trippy mind game when you put yourself on the line but in my opinion it’s worth the risk. I don’t think you can do both at the same time, working a job and trading, eventually you’ll lose your money working while trading or you’ll get fired from your job for trading while working.
Thanks for the transparency brother! I am going through this journey, i am going through the route to work and trade the same time. Trade first hour or two trading then i go to work around 11am, pacific time.
Enjoyed your video Bro! I've done the same thing...been in and out of jobs for the last fifteen years or so. Got into day trading in 2007 when I inherited 100k from my Grandmother when she passed. I "gambled" with it slowly, didn't put it all in at once. This was 2007 and 2008 right when the market was on the verge of a major crash. No one saw it coming! I was listening to the talking heads on CNBC, Jim Cramer and the likes. They all kept saying buy buy buy! But the market kept sinking! I had no clue as to what I was doing. I got into it because I was in a horrible hated job and I kept looking at the market at the end of the day and thinking Geez. If had bought 1000 shares of this or that, I would have made 3 or 4 thousand dollars today. That was like 2 months salary for me back then.Anyway, the market blew up and I ended up taking massive losses like 10 and 20 thousand dollar hits on single trades, till the account was drained. What an idiot!! Long story short, If had of just invested the money long term and never traded it. I would be sitting on over a million dollars today!! But, I still have not given up hope. I still day trade and am getting better at all the time. But, i still hold a day job. Its not too bad. You just have to understand what it is about day trading that makes you want to get into it. If youre thinking youre going to quit a comfy job and sit on the beach all day and sleep in a million dollar mansion with a Lanbo parked in the garage...think again! Aint gonna happen. i just want the freedom from having to be somewhere every effing day, and to be able to just relax and have time to enjoy myself. Very simple, I think! Anyway Good luck to all, and never give up!
1. You have massive ballz 2. You are absolutely nuts for leaving your job without having a test trade account consistently making money! Shows you have heart (but obviously a dumb choice) 3. You're my idol. 4. I'm a physician in the US working telemedicine at home, and want to eventually be a trader. You'd call me crazy if you realized what kind of a job I would be giving up but you have to do what makes you happy, makes money, and is not as time consuming (what makes you happy just does not cut it anymore).

I nearly blew up another account this week. I keep failing just like you but I keep coming back to it. Im stuck between a rock and a hard place and I just can't figure out what to do.
MAKING SO MUCH LOSSES ON TRADING PERSONALLY. I HAVE TRIED WATCHING VIDEOS AND REGISTERING ON VARIETIES OF PROGRAMS. I DONT SEEM TO BE GETTING THIS RIGHT. I STILL DONT UNDERSTAND WHERE THE ERROR COMES FROM. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE AN IDEA THAT COULD HELP OUT 😔.
I could say the same for me, I don’t know why. My portfolio has been running at serious losses anytime I try to trade,l can’t figure out what’s wrong. It would be nice if anyone has an idea that can help.
It’s risky to trade as a beginner without the help of a Professional. Busy investors also seek the help of professionals to help them monitor their trades
The basic rule is +1 is better than -1, this rule hasn’t failed me before honestly. Incessant loss would only lead to liquidation. I’ll advise you seek knowledge and guidance from Mrs Stephanie P. HODGES, she’s a great coach.
My ignorance made me lose over £2,000 on trades until I was introduced to a great professional Mrs Stephanie Hodges, an amazing coach that helped me recovered my losses and even made excess profits of over £4,500 more
I must say this happened the same to me too . Last year, I quit my job to pursue trading which was a horrible idea to do it and I ended up losing all my money. And even worse part was that there was no job to be found due to pendamic but luckily last year before Christmas I found a job with the competitor organization giving me a better pay. But I will not give up because I knew then and I know now that I can do it. Just gotta be more disciplined.
All the best to all the traders out there!
Yeah. You have to always stick to what works for you. For me. I follow the macd with a 10 time average and go from there. I made 14k out of the 25k I put into my account. But as soon as I increased the amount I trade with I'm currently down 4k because I got scared, didn't wake up almost every day ( I try to trade every day) and left a Position thinking it was gonna fail when in reality it moved in my favor.

How has day trading been treating you? Update?
Same I've made more money and more time with trading.... thats why i quit my job
Hope it worked

And the fact that practice still doesn’t make perfect pushes people out as well

Thanks for sharing, I'm sorta in the middle of a similar journey... While I currently live on the other side of the world, I work my day job, and learn to trade at night. After 4 months Im still keeping it small, but actual money... Basically breaking even at this point and I'm proud of that!
Thank you! I am back at a job I quit to pursue trading and have been extremely hard on myself as I distanced myself from a passion I had which was trading. This gave me goosebumps and reminded me I’m not alone in this journey.
Love that flashback video! Must be great to look back and reflect on your progress.
Wow inspirational story everything you described is what I’m feeling and going through and as 38 yr old with 3 kids and a wife it is not easy to quit your job and start over but for once in my life I truly feel I found my true passion your story just motivated me and I will take notes on everything you just explained hopefully I can become successful at trading one day and you can interview me lol great job keep up the good work true motivation.
Is refreshing watching your vids. No magic turn a hundred dollars into a million in a year, and actually honesty.
Very inspirational, thank you for sharing. I've been wanting to quit my job for many years now but haven't built up the courage and the funds to do so yet. The pandemic was a blessing in disguise for me because it gave me a chance to put more time into trading so it helped me to see what strategies that I was good at, and not so good at. I basically broke even, but what started to trip me up was the money I had saved up was getting lower and lower and no income coming in really messed with my psyche so I had to get a temporary job until my industry opened back up and I could go back out to work. Now that I'm back to work my goal right now is just to save as much as I can (more than a year) because the time off proved to me that I can do it but I just need to ensure that I have enough money put away to allow that to happen.
My situation currently is kind of the same like you was. I asked my employer to give me night shifts only so that I could have all morning and afternoon to trade. At the beginning of this year 2022 I started with a plan. I got 2 loans which add around 6.5k together. I said to myself I can use that money to day trade instead of waiting a year of money saved. I can make huge gains and pay down the loans with the gains in no time. If this works i’ll quit my job before 2022 ends. Boy was I wrong too. First month and I have made nothing. 3 months before 2021 ended I lost a lot too. So Im on my 5th month of loosing money.
Luckily for me, I have not quit my job and I’m barely making it. I still have about 60% left from the loans but its all in swing trades, waiting for it to back up.
I feel a connection with you when you say that even though you were loosing and not making any gains you still loved what you were doing. That’s exactly me. As soon as I learned about the stock market I knew this is what I want.
I have had jobs of all kinds, I don’t like anything. I have really fell in love with the stock market and I won’t quit.
Thank you so much for sharing this! This really helped me out with my mindset and beliefs about what I do. I have been swing/position trading for almost two years. It is the most challenging and rewarding career I have ever endeavored.
This one hit home... I'm in the "work from home and trying to multitask with trading" phase. Thank you for making this video, this has given me more hope.
Great video and great introspection man. I just quit my corporate job to trade as well and you are hitting home with these points. Luckily I started off on a foot where I doubled my initial investment (I also saved about 1-2 years worth of expenses). I definitely got lucky.
there's no way to dislike you bro. Every content you put up is a topnotch!. Everything you say comes from the heart! Your amazing!
Wow Rommel, your too kind, thank you so much! Thx for the channel support too!!!!!!!!
Man I shed a tear, laughed and related so close to this story! Thank you!
I can't even count how many things in your story match mine. Thanks for putting this video out.
Love hearing your adventure, great energy, and channel you’ve built. Wonder do you still trade yourself - is there an interview of you and your own current style and preferences?
sub'd. bro you're the man. this is the real story i havent heard amongst traders on youtube yet.
Sounds just like me man. I’ve quit my job twice and now I’m in my current job thinking about quitting again to trade. Just have this strong urge to keep at it
I quit my job for the cause. I found it impossible to focus on trading and work a full time job. Even if you’re right on a trade you miss the exit because you were in a meeting.
Yeah, you can preset buys and sells but you need to study live price action in real time over a long period of time to really get an understanding of what’s going on. Ive learned so much about trading and myself over the last 6 months by sticking my face in it every day. What’s fascinating is I used to loath Monday’s, now I can’t wait for Monday morning.
Then you run into a week like this week and realize you still have a lot to learn. Geez, what a circus, 1000 point swings multiple times a day 🤪
There is no magic bullet, just keep doing it and you’ll get it.
Process over profits is the key for me.
Gotta love managers throwing a tantrum about looking at your phone to make more in an hour than they do all week. 🤣
@@2birddogsandawolfdog945 😅
Yep, My boss would get pissed when he’d hand me paperwork and tell him “wait a minute”. That’s probably the only benefit of being a vested employee. Who do these people think they are? I had to get out.
i agree with you, and think the same. it’s really hard to work and daytrade, for me aswell it was mostly contra productive. how is it going? market has been catastrophic this year.
@@nina777_doit Im surving this turbulence. For a while I was swing trading to avoid the daily stress, but Ive recently switched back to day trading with a new perspective. So far it’s working. I think the most important thing in this environment is to look a week out on market news, earnings, global politics, and try to anticipate any large fluctuations. Like today’s action, up up and away, pretty much for no good reason … until tomorrow. I think there may be short covering going on today, there really isn’t anything major tomorrow except for some earnings and housing numbers so who knows. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride to the elections so buckle up. And now Mr Xi over in china has acquired a lifetime time appointment so there’s another question mark surprise at any moment, of any day, of any week.
One things for sure, gotta be careful, this is no time to be a hero, if you get a profit, take it, a twenty dollar win beats a twenty thousand dollar loss every time.
AWESOMMMMMEEEEE video. Your emotions and sentiment are vivid in this video!! Feels like trading. You're smiling, excited, then you have some not so happy topics, etc. Whewwwww!!
I don’t usually leave a comment, but I wanna say thanks for sharing your experience B. What you had was GRIT my friend, and that’s why you are where you are today, to be quiet honest if I was advising the old you, I would’ve said don’t drop everything you worked hard for, for something you are unsure of.
Thank you for sharing this story! While it's nice to hear about success stories for inspiration, when you're still at that 1-2 year mark ... content like THIS just resonates so much more! It gives me faith that there's still hope for me if I'm not profitable yet. Haha. Keep up the great work and content man!
Super tough career. I’m glad I’ve been able to stay working and pursue trading simultaneously
Awesome! What platform do you use in trading
Last part made me sad. I’ve lost 25k. I know a setup. But I keep trying to play every one. Gotta focus just on the one that matters. Thank you for sharing. I’ve quit my full time job and am working part time retail till I find a work from home job. (And trading)
What kind of camera do you use? It’s very clear image quality.
Hi Invest in a secure platform and broker where you will not lose your funds. I'm new to trading, but I met Mr. Raini Titan here on TH-cam where he teaches people to trade forex and stocks. which he guides me with a super platform and amazing strategy. I thought it was a scam, but finally I cashed my first $ 57,000 profit last week, he is very reliable and honest, he always tells me the actual time of buying and selling with 100 profit from his one-on-one master training.....Stay bless.

This is hilarious and also very relatable. I’m in senior management in finance and contemplating the same. My spreadsheet says I’m gonna be super successful as a Trader…my spreadsheet that is!
It’s harder and more mentally grueling than I thought.
I’m going to keep my job or a similar remote job for at least 8 more years til I’m 50 😂.
My responsible side is talking!!
This video helped me a lot. I just quit my job to pursue full time trading. The second I quit I had the same feeling you did.
How's it going now? I'm really want to quit m you job
Great video Alex, nice to hear the honesty especially given I left my job at the end of 2021 to pursue trading this year.
how is it going jack? the market in 2022 didn’t start out well, unfortunately.
I'm going through almost the exact situation. this is so helpful thank you for sharing!
I've added this video to my list so I can go back and watch it whenever I need a reminder.

I am changing my job so I can focus more on trading. I have been break even for a year and feel confident I will be able to break through. I found this video randomly, but I’m excited that you have found success! I am hoping I can find success as well!
were you finally able to break through the break even phase?
Wow, This hit Home! This was what I needed to hear, and I can relate..I'm literally at the breakeven Point in my life! Looking for part time work!
Your last quote was so personal to me. Never knew i needed it. Thanks a lot🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Awesome video dude. Funny enough am at the same spot right now. Been scared of leaving my job for the past 3 years but I feel am at my point. Where I rather take a stab at it than to never do it. At the end of the day side gigs are all over.
Great video my guy!!! You have no idea how many people this video will help!
Oh man. You got me today. As I watching your video it was like as I’m telling my own story. I’m now on stage 2 of the journey und got back to work in Nov. again for the second time , lol. Luckily I’m living in Europe and should work from 12 pm to 8 pm EST. This is hard no doubt and isn’t for anybody seeking comfort in the process. Market got choppy for the last 3 month for me. But I’m doing it anyway, learning and adapting as mich as I could and I love it despite of all setbacks and emotional holes.
I really really Thank you for sharing your journey and helping me and others. This really helps and glad being part of the trader community.
Thank you for this video, I'm in that time where I need to hear something like this.
Love these episodes about your journey! Thanks for sharing the challenges and hard times of making it
No prob Karen thank you for watching todays
I have been working from home since the pandemic, but we are going back to the office in September. My job is easy enough for me to practice and trade. I went ahead and invested in a mentor, so I can finally trade the right way and Im glad I did. Instead of quitting I plan to retire. I don’t quite have the age for the full benefits but that’s how I plan to exit. My job is good about rehiring retirees. So that’s my plan by the end of the year.
I run two businesses, one a consultancy with a slow pace, one a web app. I work from home. I have a second screen and I paper trade. My dream is to make that second screen my first.
I would love to see an updated video from your wife with all this volatility and market downturn. As well her insight on your current growth status.
I hit a similar situation where I started running out of cash lol. Luckily I went back to my parents, no girlfriend or anything serious. Been paper Trading for 6months. Trading for over a year and a half. That's my huge advantage
I don't recommend paper trading. It'll not prepare you for the emotional hardships you'll encounter with trading. Trade with small, symbolic capital. Like 5 bucks.
Yes.. for the first 3-6 months it’s good to learn what kind of trader you are but after get in and start with real money
Agree 100%. Paper is not reality, not emotion surging stress of risking giant money to try to grab 1/1,000th of it for day trades. Not even close…. And then I do it 70 times a day.
Great video man. One of the best episodes I’ve listened to.
Going through the same thing right now Alex. I'm on my third time quitting my day job to pursue my passion.... I hope there's not a fourth time.
Going through the same journey. Thanks for sharing!
Much love brother
Same to you brotha!
A great honest video and a good lesson for any new trader. I've always thought if you can't consistently trade profitably in a paper account throwing real money at it won't suddenly make you successful.
So glad I watched to the end because man… that last line was it.
My pre trade video for this morning as I began my ritual before the market opens. Thanks dude, was a good video!
I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 80k in stocks (with the help of my Financial Advisor of course) and made about 246k, but guess what? I put it all back and traded with her again and now I'm rounding up close to a million.
The pandemic came and taught everyone the importance of having multiple stream of income, unfortunately having a nice paying job doesn't mean you are financial secured anymore. So we all need to put in an extra-income earning chance, like investments.
I agree with you, Covid taught us the importance of having a plan "B" income. You are not safe with just one paying job, when nobody knows what will happen next. Look at what happened to so many of u... Read more
Investment is that tiny line that separates the RICH from the POOR. The foolish from wise sorry to say. I can proudly say I am wise today because I can provide for my family through my investments.
Take it from one who has it and buy a house in Missouri and dream Wrangler with forex trade profits. I started with Mrs Dawn Fitzpatrick of financial education and she has been my handler and guider for the past years
WOW! This is basically my story. I saved up a year's worth of income, quit my job, and failed that year thinking I knew it all. Inspiring to hear your story. I'm saving up for round 2, but instead of going full-time like you did I have a part-time job so I can day trade every day and be stress-free. Even though I wanna quit badly, I'll be staying until I'm consistent which I know will take years. But I love day trading so much just like you that I cant even imagine myself doing anything else in the future.
Thanks for sharing this video brother, I'm in that boat where I really want to quit my job and pursue trading. It not that I hate my job but it's been very hard on my body and also I am growing to be miserable while working there cause I'm not growing and rather be trading. It's always uplifting to hear stories like this.
WOW! This really resonate to me because I'm in this phase right now. I just quit my Job as a nurse because I want to focus trading. I'm on my 18th month of trading now and I had a good track record in trading so far. Since I quit my Job I don't know for some reason I havent perfoming well.
Takes time. Don’t rush. When you leave your job it’s tough because you start to focus on making money and not trading well.
@@BTheStory Thank you Alex! I appreciate you bro. all the best
Too much mental/emotional stress on yourself. It’s making you trade irrationally.
Everyday you seem more and more natural ... Keep up the good work
Love your genuinity in your content. I think anyone who wants to get into trading full time needs to understand the importance of having multiple other sources of income not only for the inconstancy of the markets but to reduce the desperateness of "needing" to take a trade. I dont really know of any pro/successful traders who do not have other sources of income as well.
you havent looked very far then. There's 1000s of traders that have trading as an only source of income (outside of passive income with funds earnt from trading)
Reading about people grabbing multi-figures monthly as incomes in investments even in this crazy days in the market, any pointers on
how to make substantial progress in earning? would appreciate..
You make it seem unreal to make up to that as a passive income annually, when its clearly possible. I have made over 1Hunred thousand dollars from May till now with no joke game plan. She’s a masterpiece and her name’s Magaret..
Have heard lots of exciting things about this broker lately but have no idea how to reach out to her.Any idea?would really appreciate please🙏
This lady right here, I tradrewith her she’s inventive and the Proof of trades are no jokes, i won’t look awestricken you made mention of her
@@heidisure5111 its quite easy to reach her on tele gram with her user name *investwithmagy*
I took skeptical decisions to start trading with Her as a youngie and i am glad it isn’t a regret, proved me it’s worth it.
Love your story! Love trading but still learning
THE BEST DECISION I EVER MADE IN MY LIFE WAS
INVESTING IN FINANCIAL MARKET. TRUST ME GUYS, IT
PAYS!
Crypto trading is very profitable when you trade well.
Many of us don't know where to invest our money so we
invest it in wrong places and to the wrong people
@Kimberly Lien Wow!! Impressive you trade with Pamela Morgan too! I thought people don't know her that well.... She's really awesome!
@@kevineleven8720 You don't have to be surprise because I'm also a huge beneficiary of Expert, I keep on earning $15,000 every single week with her trading platform.
I Came across her on twitter but never knew she was this good, just happened I met her and decided to give her a try.
"I wanted to trade because I love it." Thank you so much B, we Filipino traders love you. very inspiring! :)
5:11 man... My parents said they were really disappointed in me that I left school to pursue day trading. Now I'm paying their rent. It really bums me out cause now they tell everyone " oh yeah, I always knew he was smart" and all this other bs. It made me have such a deep core of resentment towards them, I rarely see them as a result now, but knowing they don't have to pay to live in their home makes it easy for the both of us to not communicate lol, I'm glad you have a supportive family and wife man. That is more rare than a profitable day trader. 😂
Some parents want to brag about their kids for good and bad reasons; so now, yours can brag. Do what you can to restore that relationship before they pass away.
A slap in the face that I definitely needed, thnx

Great video. Thanks for being real - and optimistic simultaneously.
Thanks for sharing, very good content and experience teachers wisdom.
This was excellent! And right on time
Wow... that ending there was so profound!!!
You hit a nerve buddy!!!
Thanks for your story man!
Wonderful video - I loved going back in time to see you interact with your friend the day you quit, that was wild! Amazing person and amazing story 💪✊🤜👍👍
enjoy your interviews man. your authenticity shows. curious what that remote part-time job was???
Realist shit I've heard in a while. You get a like.
After 14:20 if felt as if you were talking to me directly man bc That’s literally me right now. Holy shit brother I needed this.
One thing Ive learned is don’t panic trade because you have to make money immediately. Be patient, wait for your set ups.
What I’ve found is when you get into that nervous “I need a win” mindset you start seeing things in the charts that aren’t there. Its a trippy mind game when you put yourself on the line but in my opinion it’s worth the risk. I don’t think you can do both at the same time, working a job and trading, eventually you’ll lose your money working while trading or you’ll get fired from your job for trading while working.
is it possible to interview a trading psychologist on the show? to assess and explain why cutting losses are hard
I just love this channel you are really good motivated people like me. Thank you 🙏
Great advice mate! There is no option to quit iff you love trading
Thanks for the transparency brother! I am going through this journey, i am going through the route to work and trade the same time. Trade first hour or two trading then i go to work around 11am, pacific time.
Good luck Kris! I am rooting for you!!!!!! LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Diggin that RED B! bro!
Amazing attitude, engaging, and mature. Keep it up!
Needed to hear this
Inspiring story!! Thank you for sharing
Man this is an awesome video! Thanks for sharing your story!
Thank you bro
Enjoyed your video Bro! I've done the same thing...been in and out of jobs for the last fifteen years or so.
Got into day trading in 2007 when I inherited 100k from my Grandmother when she passed. I "gambled" with it slowly, didn't put it all in at once. This was 2007 and 2008 right when the market was on the verge of a major crash. No one saw it coming! I was listening to the talking heads on CNBC, Jim Cramer and the likes. They all kept saying buy buy buy! But the market kept sinking! I had no clue as to what I was doing. I got into it because I was in a horrible hated job and I kept looking at the market at the end of the day and thinking Geez. If had bought 1000 shares of this or that, I would have made 3 or 4 thousand dollars today. That was like 2 months salary for me back then.Anyway, the market blew up and I ended up taking massive losses like 10 and 20 thousand dollar hits on single trades, till the account was drained. What an idiot!! Long story short, If had of just invested the money long term and never traded it. I would be sitting on over a million dollars today!! But, I still have not given up hope. I still day trade and am getting better at all the time. But, i still hold a day job. Its not too bad. You just have to understand what it is about day trading that makes you want to get into it. If youre thinking youre going to quit a comfy job and sit on the beach all day and sleep in a million dollar mansion with a Lanbo parked in the garage...think again! Aint gonna happen. i just want the freedom from having to be somewhere every effing day, and to be able to just relax and have time to enjoy myself. Very simple, I think! Anyway Good luck to all, and never give up!
1. You have massive ballz
2. You are absolutely nuts for leaving your job without having a test trade account consistently making money! Shows you have heart (but obviously a dumb choice)
3. You're my idol.
4. I'm a physician in the US working telemedicine at home, and want to eventually be a trader. You'd call me crazy if you realized what kind of a job I would be giving up but you have to do what makes you happy, makes money, and is not as time consuming (what makes you happy just does not cut it anymore).
Thank you for sharing!
well done, great journey
This is exactly where I am personally. Great video!
Why not do both? I own a business and do trading. Double income

@@alecmiller6262 tell him that Glenn Redhead recommended him to you
I nearly blew up another account this week. I keep failing just like you but I keep coming back to it. Im stuck between a rock and a hard place and I just can't figure out what to do.
MAKING SO MUCH LOSSES ON TRADING PERSONALLY. I HAVE TRIED WATCHING VIDEOS AND REGISTERING ON VARIETIES OF PROGRAMS. I DONT SEEM TO BE GETTING THIS RIGHT. I STILL DONT UNDERSTAND WHERE THE ERROR COMES FROM. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE AN IDEA THAT COULD HELP OUT 😔.
I could say the same for me, I don’t know why. My portfolio has been running at serious losses anytime I try to trade,l can’t figure out what’s wrong. It would be nice if anyone has an idea that can help.
It’s risky to trade as a beginner without the help of a Professional. Busy investors also seek the help of professionals to help them monitor their trades
The basic rule is +1 is better than -1, this rule hasn’t failed me before honestly. Incessant loss would only lead to liquidation. I’ll advise you seek knowledge and guidance from Mrs Stephanie P. HODGES, she’s a great coach.
My ignorance made me lose over £2,000 on trades until I was introduced to a great professional Mrs Stephanie Hodges, an amazing coach that helped me recovered my losses and even made excess profits of over £4,500 more
Wow It’s surprising that you just mentioned and approved Expert Mrs Stephanie, I felt I was the only one trading with her.
Thank you! I feel better...
