What a GREAT explanation! Being both a gambler and an investor, what you said makes perfect sense. Both are all about the edge and if you're able to find and exploit that edge, you'll come out a winner. The keys to investing which can be applied to gambling: 1)Look for a minimum 2 to 1 profit loss ratio 2)Set a stop loss 3)Set a profit target 4)Rinse and repeat without being greedy 5)Remind yourself to ONLY play when you have the edge
Exactly what I was thinking too! It's like I understood the first time, without confusion and this has just opened up my mind to possibilities. I studied this for several years (several years ago), and never really understood any of it.
@@shantanumarathe5 Agreed. I've seen the (important) concept of 2:1 profit versus risk explained elsewhere - but very few people do it with the clarity and panache of this guy! His casino analogy is a good one. Success isn't really about any individual trade on any individual day, it's about having the discipline too apply a consistent system where the odds are set up in our favour over time. Far from being like gambling, it is being like the house - just as he says.
Walter Neumann can you help me to know what app or apps to use for investing in the stock market...I'm starting from scratch and wanting to buy small first
@@TheFartKing88 bro if you are starting from scratch I recommend you to start with paper money instead of real money. And take some courses or read books.
For anyone wondering this is the secret, sadly it takes a while for the brain to comprehend what is being said, and how to apply it. Took me four years, this video changed my life, the key is to find a system that works through back testing repeatedly and account management. Now I can finally make double my account trading only twice a week
People just said I should make 1:2, but rarely explain WHY or where did that ratio came from. Your video make me finally understand, in very clear explanation. Thank you very much!!!
After this video I can no longer walk into a casino haha. I prefer day trading in the stock market - better odds. This is the best explanation about profit-loss in trading and I have watched so many paid videos already. Amazing how he gives it away for free.
@@rajthanya You clearly don't trade or didn't understand the video. Trading at the end of the day is a game of PROBABILITIES. He gave a perfect example of using casino rules in your trading. If you have been trading for long enough you would understand this.
Hey guys! Does anybody know, when he analyses the stock market trend graph, what time frame is he using, like is he looking at the trend of one day,? One month? Or the year?
This is the best video about trading on the internet. Totally changed my approach towards trading and finally understood what trading actually is. Thank you Adam Khoo for sharing this knowledge.
January 2 2020, I found the teacher I love the most. I heard of Forex and stock trading in 2019 but could not find anyone to clearly explain to me what it was so I brushed it off until I came across one of your videos. I am 21 and I will update soon and let you know about the African girl you just helped turn into a millionaire. Please keep on teaching, these videos are the most informative videos ever. Thank you.
This information is pure gold. Do this with stocks like Tesla, Amazon, Apple, google, shopify, and facebook. If you get the buy sell cycle right, you can make crazy money. Keep an eye on the volume, if the volume thats being traded starts to erode from the day before, stock will probably start sliding down.
Most people are visual base. I love it that he explains it visibly and very easy to understand. One word that does stick out to me light a light bulb is, "DUH".
It's the downfall of all rookie traders, I made this mistake many times in the past, it is in our nature to be hopeful but in the game of trading it does not work.
Come back when you've done some trades and invested some significant amounts and you'll quickly learn why it gets hard. Theres a million reasons why its hard.
Discipline is key. Stick to your initial bias. You can't keep on adjusting that stop loss. Cut without mercy. Don't fear missing out on the upswing. You don't want to end up with wishful thinking. Plan your trade, trade your plan.
In my opinion, the way I win money (20-24%) over time in stocks, tracking 4-5 stocks closely over a period of time. And only focus on those. Have a mix from different segment, One Oil (BP, Shell or Dig Company like Nabors), One Historical Blue (Walmart), One Tech (Apple, Fitbit, Google), One High Risk (Falling Star like Ford, GE), One Health (Walgreen, J&J). One Weekly Stock (This will be a news stock which changes from week to week or have upcoming earnings with some edge as Adam explained in video) All stocks have somewhat cyclical pattern, seasonal pattern, falling pattern, upward pattern; you can then play strategy week after week. Stick to selected stocks for 3 months at least. Hope it works out for you guys. I am not endorsing this strategy but it works for me and wanted to share for educational purpose. The moral is though, as Adam explained Stocks can be great instrument to make money, given that you do not get greedy or emotional (stop loss) and study your basis.
Thanks Shaun. I like the idea of getting to know a particular stock. Having one from each of the major sectors is a good idea also. No harm in having them on a watchlist to monitor. You're right about the emotions also, i think that's the number one killer of trading accounts; emotions (mainly fear and greed). Good luck man.
yes. totally agree. also, just putting my two cents... what discourages the instant gratification crowd is that some stocks have patterns that you only see when looking at long time spans. look at stocks like LEN or AT&T or even Chevron. these stocks might reach resistance this year then next year fall to a support level. years of waiting, lol.
This is the best trading video I've ever seen, to date, including all the shit I've watched on Fib retracements, candlestick analysis and EMA crossover studies. This 16:53 mins is pure gold. Thank you, Adam.
The most challenging part about this is identifying consistent patterns to make trades. Casinos create the statistical edge, traders have to find the statistical edge.
That is an excellent point. This is important math to understand and apply but it does need to be paired with a trading strategy that has an edge and that’s something everyone needs to work to develop on their own in accordance with their personality. In my opinion you need both of those things working in tandem to have the best long term success. I focus on identifying a swing low on one time frame and then adding to my position if/when there is follow through that creates a new swing low in a higher time frame. This process should keep repeating until the stock is making new highs on all time frames or I get stopped out by my trailing stop. Same process for compelling short opportunities using a swing high instead of swing low.
ahh.. Stop loss is the key to a successful trader. I need to implement this. I knew it was an important aspect in my trades but as a novice (a good portion of us) I tend to not follow principals and instead I let emotions take control of my trade. Apple and Tesla had a huge pullback after the split, I held onto my options instead of bailing. Could of save half of my option investment but I let my loss ride in hopes it will turn up (green), well I ended up losing the max. Thank you Adam for this refresher, you explained it in a way that made easy sense mathematically and made trading fun again. I'm a natural gambler, but tired of being the player!!!!
This was the most surprising video i have ever seen. Honestly, I entered because of the Title and i just wanted to see where you are wrong. But you were not wrong. Simple, educating, funny. Well done.
Sir, you're a truly gifted teacher. Your expressiveness and your lucid explanations will no doubt come to mind and serve as guidance on more than one occasion.
In the last month or so I've been watching you tube videos of maybe 4 or 5 traders to try to explain trading in the stock market, most of them helped me as I'm a complete beginner. Most of them were very motivational. But this guy explained it in this video in such a way that it now makes sense to me. For me as a complete beginner this is I think my light bulb moment when it comes to trading in the stock market. The journey continues and I hope the destination would be sweet. Thank you sir and I wish everyone to be as profitable as a casino. 🙂🙂🙂🤪🤪🤪🤘🤘🤘
Wow. Everything I’ve read and watched over the last few weeks has gone over my head. This video just made a lot of stuff make sense. Your voice is loud, assertive and crystal clear. Your method for explanation is 👍👍👍. What a fantastic teacher. Much thanks.
I think this is the most critical mindset for traders to possessed while surfing in stock, futures, forex, crypto market. thanks Adam, it's really the game changer knowledge for trader
I wish I had seen this video 3 years ago when I started trade. Very knowledge condensed in few minutes. Thanks for sharing Mr. Adam Khoo. I learned this knowledge in a different way. By studying Kelly's formula and applying it to a large number of randomly trades in Excel. The end result don't lie: Profit. In my opinion: Professional trade = edge + money management. No Edge = No play. With Edge, play small to survive a series of losses. It's gonna happened. It's statistical. Even with your edge work fine. Always use stop loss and accept it as part of the game. In the end, your Edge will recover of your losses and give you a nice profit.
You are very knowledgeable on trading. I just joined E-trade as a beginner. I'm not buying any stock yet. Just reading and watching videos to gain knowledge before buying. Your video enlightened me a lot.
this is the most useful 17mins video I've watched in TH-cam, I've learned a lot than watching any random trading videos, i feel like I'm a pro trader now haha
Hello Adam, Recently I got into the youtube financial niche, and I’ve taken a deep dive into investing, particularly in fx, stocks, and ETFs as they interest me. Tried several methods trying to figure out the best approach to building my portfolio. So far, I’m making progress with the help of my technical trade analyst. I’ve been able to compound a substantial amount in profits from my trades. Back to the video, wonderful job there, always look forward to your next content.
After 4 years, this video is mind blowing, because we know this, in our head we know this, but our emotions plays better than the maths. So, this is the deal, put your entries and stop losses and never but never look the chart again until you see that all the trades are finish. And thats it. And of course, Stick with your strategy no matter what.
Agreed, and thank you for this perspective. The trickiest part is sticking to the game plan in the heat of battle. This is what i am currently working on in my trading, how to think statistically and your casino analogy helps. Also the way you said "...it's just luck" revealed a lot to me, regarding how one must view each trade. Thank you for that insight.
The prob with this math is... when u blindly invest, the numbers may be like this. But if you read it wrong, it is 100% failure. You will never put your money in when you think you are wrong. You only put it in when you think you are right. It is those times that when you lose your ass completely.
Fantastic ideas! You are helping a lot of people out there! I already knew about the technical analysis aspect, but putting the profit target twice as high as the stop loss was something new for me. The farther the target is, the harder it will be for the price to get there, but in a stock that has had a regular pattern, repetition is more likely than random chance. Using those strategies, I really think that it is possible to have an edge. I appreciate you helping us out!
Lol now i clearly understand the statement " don't be greedy " . i use to aim for more than 70% win rate. now i know that with a 48% win rate i can still profit because as explained by the 2:1 win to loss ratio. This has put me on another level as a begginer
that is like the best explanation one could ever get on how to trade like a pro SOOO good and it all makes sense. TY for providing this info for free! :D
@@zino7417 How about you? How are you doing? For me I finally settled on a very descriptive trading plan, and the only loses I got from it (which were few) came from emotions.
Your lesson is very clear and very knowledgeable. However the math for 1to2 ratio is 33% win rate. Price have to travel twice the distance to hit your take profit against one time to get to your stop loss. 1/3 equal 33%. However any ratio you choose 1 to 1 or 1 to 2 as long that you stick to it and don't keep changing it will eventually be 50/50 chance statistically speaking. What will make us profit is the edge we have against the market and the experience predicting which direction it will go that will add to our 50% chance
This video needs to be a mandatory part in gambling addict counselling... Degenerate gambler always end up ignoring the statistics because emotions end up getting over them.. Degenerate gamblers don't keep spreadsheets of their wins & losses so they is no way of analysing their bets. Furthermore they don't know what position sizing and consistent money management means.. All this is derived from risk/reward ratio
Gambling addiction is a DSM-5 recognized mental disorder. Just like you can be addicted to substances (caffeine, alcohol, meth, heroin, oxycontin, etc.), you can also be addicted to processes and behaviors (shopping, plastic surgery, eating, gambling, etc.). The research base in this area is substantial. As someone in the mental health field, I find it offensive that you refer to the "degenerate gambler"; many gamblers aren't degenerates at all; they have a diagnosable mental disorder; they're sick, quite literally. Would you call someone with cancer a degenerate based on being a cancer patient?
@@numinous4789 most people are addicted to Television, but will never admit it. Think about your TV watching and you'll probably see that you're on autopilot. Get home...Turn on TV. Dinner...Sit in from of TV. Friends over...Turn on TV. 6PM...Time to watch the bnews. It's too quiet...Let TV play in the background. Almost bed time... lemme watch a little TV. Etc. The worst part is that the networks know this...So they throw in commercials to plant ideas and hypnosis.
Thank you very much Adam for sharing your knowledge all the trading techniques, much appreciated. I dont have any doubt that is why your successful on your career. I have learn a lot from you I am just about to start to trade and I am still on learning process, studying and learn the system that I could used when I will start to trade. I am looking forward for more educational video. Thank you very much indeed and may God bless you and your family.

@Lician lonut Cocos
Can you share any channel or book to learn how to trade ?
This is easy to learn, hard to apply. But in the end, he's right...
because of the lack of long term discipline (that separates good trades from bad). And long term I dont mean months, but years.
Add trailing stop, to ride your profits while staying protected.
Come back when you've done some trades and invested some significant amounts and you'll quickly learn why it gets hard. Theres a million reasons why its hard.
He's right in theory
Discipline is key. Stick to your initial bias. You can't keep on adjusting that stop loss. Cut without mercy. Don't fear missing out on the upswing. You don't want to end up with wishful thinking.

Trade Like a Casino for Consistent Profits by Adam Khoo
In my opinion, the way I win money (20-24%) over time in stocks, tracking 4-5 stocks closely over a period of time. And only focus on those. Have a mix from different segment, One Oil (BP, Shell or Dig Company like Nabors), One Historical Blue (Walmart), One Tech (Apple, Fitbit, Google), One High Risk (Falling Star like Ford, GE), One Health (Walgreen, J&J). One Weekly Stock (This will be a news stock which changes from week to week or have upcoming earnings with some edge as Adam explained in video)
All stocks have somewhat cyclical pattern, seasonal pattern, falling pattern, upward pattern; you can then play strategy week after week.
Stick to selected stocks for 3 months at least.

Sir you're being unselfish. Thanks for the Idea. Just please keep it up. Don't mind those negative and bad comments. You're inspiring people.
The most challenging part about this is identifying consistent patterns to make trades.
Casinos create the statistical edge, traders have to find the statistical edge.
CaliCoin Digital no, you create one just like them. Find a pattern, use it to your advantage. That’s an edge brotha
That is an excellent point. This is important math to understand and apply but it does need to be paired with a trading strategy that has an edge and that’s something everyone needs to work to develop on their own in accordance with their personality. In my opinion you need both of those things working in tandem to have the best long term success.
I focus on identifying a swing low on one time frame and then adding to my position if/when there is follow through that creates a new swing low in a higher time frame. This process should keep repeating until the stock is making new highs on all time frames or I get stopped out by my trailing stop.
Same process for compelling short opportunities using a swing high instead of swing low.
You have to backtest like you’re training for the trading Olympics. Then you HAVE to let the probabilities play out once you’ve identified your edge.
ahh.. Stop loss is the key to a successful trader. I need to implement this. I knew it was an important aspect in my trades but as a novice (a good portion of us) I tend to not follow principals and instead I let emotions take control of my trade.

I wish I had seen this video 3 years ago when I started trade. Very knowledge condensed in few minutes. Thanks for sharing Mr. Adam Khoo.
I learned this knowledge in a different way. By studying Kelly's formula and applying it to a large number of randomly trades in Excel. The end result don't lie: Profit.
In my opinion:
Professional trade = edge + money management.
No Edge = No play.
With Edge, play small to survive a series of losses. It's gonna happened. It's statistical. Even with your edge work fine.
Always use stop loss and accept it as part of the game. In the end, your Edge will recover of your losses and give you a nice profit.

This man is doing god's work , God bless brother
After 4 years, this video is mind blowing, because we know this, in our head we know this, but our emotions plays better than the maths. So, this is the deal, put your entries and stop losses and never but never look the chart again until you see that all the trades are finish. And thats it. And of course, Stick with your strategy no matter what.
Agreed, and thank you for this perspective. The trickiest part is sticking to the game plan in the heat of battle. This is what i am currently working on in my trading, how to think statistically and your casino analogy helps. Also the way you said "...it's just luck" revealed a lot to me, regarding how one must view each trade. Thank you for that insight.
Such a professional I’m 15 and he makes complex topic super easy(by the way I’m am not really smart so if I can understand ....
This is the best explanation I’ve seen, thank you.!
Yes good, i using a strategy grid called "hedgestrategy1". It works good from many Years. It's a different approach, but with math component.
The prob with this math is... when u blindly invest, the numbers may be like this. But if you read it wrong, it is 100% failure. You will never put your money in when you think you are wrong. You only put it in when you think you are right. It is those times that when you lose your ass completely.

I couldn't find anything more valuable than this today in internet....thank you so much for all the information you gave in this following video
I was judgemental when I thought I will not learn from you.
But now I understand moren specially I work at the casino 😆
This is the best video i've seen on stock market advice so far thank you!
man, man, your psychology just blew me away. thanks.
I have done this all strategy 10/9 times works in my sides 60 40 %formula and stoploss
Are you using price action ? What indicators are you using ?
The best trader teacher ever
Fantastic ideas! You are helping a lot of people out there! I already knew about the technical analysis aspect, but putting the profit target twice as high as the stop loss was something new for me. The farther the target is, the harder it will be for the price to get there, but in a stock that has had a regular pattern, repetition is more likely than random chance. Using those strategies, I really think that it is possible to have an edge. I appreciate you helping us out!
Thank you for your generosity. this is the first time I see a lesson so rich that is free
Lol now i clearly understand the statement " don't be greedy " . i use to aim for more than 70% win rate. now i know that with a 48% win rate i can still profit because as explained by the 2:1 win to loss ratio. This has put me on another level as a begginer
Simple and clear...will I say that stumbling upon this video is just a good luck..?
to be honest! he is the best trader i have ever seen. the way he explains is miraculous
that is like the best explanation one could ever get on how to trade like a pro
SOOO good
and it all makes sense.
TY for providing this info for free! :D
So, 2 months later, how you doing friend after doing 200 trades?

Don't Read My Profile Picture Its been a month.. how are you doing?
@@zino7417 How about you? How are you doing? For me I finally settled on a very descriptive trading plan, and the only loses I got from it (which were few) came from emotions.
In my personal opinion. This is your best video. I come back to it all the time every few months.
Your lesson is very clear and very knowledgeable. However the math for 1to2 ratio is 33% win rate. Price have to travel twice the distance to hit your take profit against one time to get to your stop loss. 1/3 equal 33%. However any ratio you choose 1 to 1 or 1 to 2 as long that you stick to it and don't keep changing it will eventually be 50/50 chance statistically speaking. What will make us profit is the edge we have against the market and the experience predicting which direction it will go that will add to our 50% chance
Can you recommend any materials or channel to learn deeply in technical analysis ?
That roulette wheel was a perfect circle with one stroke of the pen .....this guys a genius.
no it wasn't... but he is good
The Ultimate Algorithm for Trading/Gambling
You totally left me speechless after the video even though I know your topic you're just full of energy so enthusiastic teacher.
This video needs to be a mandatory part in gambling addict counselling... Degenerate gambler always end up ignoring the statistics because emotions end up getting over them.. Degenerate gamblers don't keep spreadsheets of their wins & losses so they is no way of analysing their bets. Furthermore they don't know what position sizing and consistent money management means.. All this is derived from risk/reward ratio
Poker and other chance related games all have similar concepts.. Combination of game theory, psychology, statistic probability and luck
MARK YEN hey mark, are you still an active trader
Gambling addiction is a DSM-5 recognized mental disorder. Just like you can be addicted to substances (caffeine, alcohol, meth, heroin, oxycontin, etc.), you can also be addicted to processes and behaviors (shopping, plastic surgery, eating, gambling, etc.). The research base in this area is substantial. As someone in the mental health field, I find it offensive that you refer to the "degenerate gambler"; many gamblers aren't degenerates at all; they have a diagnosable mental disorder; they're sick, quite literally. Would you call someone with cancer a degenerate based on being a cancer patient?
@@numinous4789 most people are addicted to Television, but will never admit it. Think about your TV watching and you'll probably see that you're on autopilot. Get home...Turn on TV. Dinner...Sit in from of TV. Friends over...Turn on TV. 6PM...Time to watch the bnews. It's too quiet...Let TV play in the background. Almost bed time... lemme watch a little TV. Etc. The worst part is that the networks know this...So they throw in commercials to plant ideas and hypnosis.
give this man an award
