Full transcript
- 0:00what is Good Guys welcome back uh
- 0:02welcome to boot camp I believe day 13.
- 0:06um hopefully you guys are ready to get
- 0:07into some disciplined stuff and uh for
- 0:10most you guys today is going to be
- 0:12relatively easy for others
- 0:15um you know you might be able to learn a
- 0:16little bit more but
- 0:19today we are going to talk about
- 0:20something very basic which is just risk
- 0:24management and really the first part
- 0:26about risk management in
- 0:29um uh in just trading uh and that is
- 0:33literally how much you are risking
- 0:35because when people say risk management
- 0:37is the most important thing
- 0:40they're you know like it's it's true but
- 0:43also like
- 0:45it's it's the most important thing
- 0:48because of how hard it is due to all the
- 0:52other emotions so in this video we're
- 0:55going to talk about what risk management
- 0:57really is which is literally just how
- 1:00much to risk and when to risk it
- 1:04um and all those other emotions and
- 1:07things that we have to deal with that
- 1:10comes from discipline um so when people
- 1:11say yeah risk management is the most
- 1:13important thing they it's not wrong but
- 1:16it's
- 1:17um
- 1:18this thing on
- 1:20um yeah it's not it's not wrong but it's
- 1:22also I guess just not phrased the right
- 1:25way I would say discipline is the most
- 1:27important thing and just having a stable
- 1:30um and strong like headspace is is the
- 1:34most important thing and not many people
- 1:35have that uh you know believe it or not
- 1:37in this world and you tend to find that
- 1:39you know you find someone that's super
- 1:41disciplined they're making a lot of
- 1:42money same thing applies to trading if
- 1:44you're super disciplined that money will
- 1:46come
- 1:47um just like with any other job right if
- 1:49you put in the work the money will come
- 1:51right back to you
- 1:52um you know you just got to do the right
- 1:54stuff and don't slip up okay so today
- 1:58it's going to be relatively quick video
- 2:00but it is very important if you don't
- 2:02know anything about it and like I said
- 2:05um all over Tick Tock and like I've said
- 2:07at the beginning we are doing this from
- 2:08scratch so this is essential for me to
- 2:10mention
- 2:12um especially because I feel like a lot
- 2:15of you guys come into this thinking
- 2:18you are going to make 100K in your first
- 2:21year I hate to ruin your dreams I hate
- 2:24to break it to you bro
- 2:30you're not gonna make [ __ ]
- 2:33you're going to lose money probably in
- 2:36your first year probably in your second
- 2:39year
- 2:39imagine this is like college tuition
- 2:41you're paying you're paying for the
- 2:43lessons Okay so how can we make it so we
- 2:47lose the least amount of money because
- 2:50it's kind of impossible to to just start
- 2:54off OfferUp even if you've been trading
- 2:56on demo even if you go from demo
- 2:59profitable on demo to live there is
- 3:01going to be an in-between where you are
- 3:03losing money
- 3:05um
- 3:06just because your emotions it's it's so
- 3:08hard and that's why half of this literal
- 3:10boot camp is all dedicated to emotion so
- 3:13hopefully we can start nipping those
- 3:14things in the ass and you know like cut
- 3:16out a lot of these problems that you'll
- 3:18face along the way as long as you guys
- 3:19listen as long as you listen Okay so
- 3:23today what are we talking about we're
- 3:24talking about risk management how much
- 3:26you should risk per trade and that's
- 3:28about it and how often you should trade
- 3:30because that's really all risk
- 3:31management is right what are we doing
- 3:33managing our risk how do we do that
- 3:34understand what we're risking and
- 3:36understand not to overdo it okay so how
- 3:39can we do that what I like to do very
- 3:42simple okay risk one to three percent of
- 3:45your account
- 3:48and that's it okay you're risking one to
- 3:51three percent of your account size per
- 3:53trade okay and depending on if you do
- 3:56Futures if you do options if you do
- 3:58Forex there's a bunch of different ways
- 4:00to calculate this and figure out your
- 4:02risk
- 4:03um and it's relatively easy on all of
- 4:05them and a little simple Google search
- 4:08can help you out how do I risk one
- 4:10percent of my account doing options with
- 4:13this stop loss how do I risk one to
- 4:16three percent of my account doing
- 4:18futures
- 4:20with you know a two-point stop loss with
- 4:24a five-point stop loss with a ten point
- 4:25stop loss right how do I calculate you
- 4:29know how do I figure out one percent
- 4:30risk on this account size with this pip
- 4:34stop loss for Forex for example okay
- 4:36simple Google search or literally just
- 4:38looking up lot size calculator position
- 4:40size calculator all of those things work
- 4:44um that's not for me to do that's for
- 4:46you to do that's your homework there you
- 4:48go that's one step of your homework okay
- 4:50you can figure out where you can find
- 4:53out to calculate that that's not what
- 4:55I'm here for Google can do that in two
- 4:57SEC seconds and I'm not going to waste
- 4:58my time explaining that so that being
- 5:01said you're going to risk one to three
- 5:03percent of your account why are we doing
- 5:04this well let's think about it logically
- 5:07right if we are risking one percent of
- 5:09our account per trade that means we
- 5:10would have to lose a hundred trades in a
- 5:12row to lose that account completely will
- 5:15that happen rarely right you may be
- 5:18asset trading but you will probably get
- 5:22at least like two out of your ten trades
- 5:25say it take profit
- 5:27um whether it's from luck or just
- 5:30yeah it'll probably be from luck if
- 5:32you're a terrible at trading right
- 5:34um so right it's pretty much impossible
- 5:37to blow your account risking one percent
- 5:40per trade because that pretty much means
- 5:42you would have to lose 100 trades in a
- 5:45row and you aren't going to do that and
- 5:47then from there it's like okay let's say
- 5:50like even then like let's say you're
- 5:52losing 80 of the time if you're only
- 5:54risking one percent
- 5:56then like
- 5:58you know at the end of the year you'll
- 6:00still have 20 of that account left and
- 6:01that's still money that you saved right
- 6:05instead of blowing all of it in two
- 6:07weeks and then having to refund it right
- 6:09so let's think about this logically
- 6:11would you rather be able to keep the
- 6:13initial account that you started with
- 6:15or
- 6:17or would you rather keep having to fund
- 6:20that same amount of money that's in your
- 6:22account right now every [ __ ] week
- 6:24because you keep losing it
- 6:27all because you want to get rich quick
- 6:28and we know damn well you aren't right
- 6:29we talked about this at the very
- 6:30beginning you will not get rich quick
- 6:32doing this get that [ __ ] out of your
- 6:34head
- 6:37okay get it out of your head and once
- 6:39that's gone say okay cool I'll get rich
- 6:41slow relatively slow right
- 6:45um so I'll get risk slow how do you do
- 6:47that by risking one to three percent of
- 6:49your account okay what else does this
- 6:52mean this also means okay yeah we're
- 6:55risking one percent per trade that means
- 6:57it takes 100 trades for us you know to
- 7:00lose everything however
- 7:02what happens if you take 100 trades in a
- 7:04day that means that account will be gone
- 7:06in a day and we can't risk that we can't
- 7:08this is a risk on Marketplace this is a
- 7:11risk on asset this is a risk on job okay
- 7:13if you if you are the type of person
- 7:17that needs instant gratification and you
- 7:19need it every second of the day this is
- 7:21not for you because with trading you
- 7:24literally
- 7:25trading is not what people painted out
- 7:27to paint it out to be trading is waking
- 7:31up and doing something emotion like
- 7:34without emotion
- 7:36and and you have to you have to be able
- 7:39to make up to upwards of 60k in a day
- 7:42and be emotionless and also lose you
- 7:46know up to like 20 I lost like 27k like
- 7:49two weeks ago in one trade in a day
- 7:52and you have to be emotionless because
- 7:54the second the second your emotions
- 7:56plug-in boom you're [ __ ] that account
- 7:58consider that gone literally considering
- 8:00gone the second you start over trading
- 8:02the seconds you start taking more than
- 8:04the set amount of Trades that you wanted
- 8:06to take per per day
- 8:08the minute you start doing more than
- 8:09that
- 8:10that's when you screwed the minute you
- 8:12start risking more that's when you're
- 8:14screwed and you're probably thinking no
- 8:16no that's not going to be me it's not
- 8:17going to be me I'm going to follow tjr
- 8:19it's trust me you will make this mistake
- 8:21without a doubt but again remember what
- 8:23we said last time last last discipline
- 8:26class
- 8:27understand when the mistake happens and
- 8:31never do it again right it's like
- 8:33imagine you have the best the best job
- 8:35in the world and you have a boss and
- 8:38you're getting paid millions of dollars
- 8:40a year
- 8:41and you [ __ ] up you make a mistake and
- 8:44your boss comes to you and says I can
- 8:47fire you right now or I'll give you one
- 8:50more chance but you can never make this
- 8:52mistake again
- 8:54right
- 8:56never make that mistake again because
- 8:58this is literally the exact same
- 9:00situation because you are literally on
- 9:02Pace
- 9:04to pretty much an infinite source of
- 9:07money with this skill
- 9:09as long as you follow these damn rules
- 9:11because think about it this way if you
- 9:13had two hundred thousand dollars in your
- 9:15trading account would you be trading the
- 9:17way that you are now
- 9:19would you be risking 20 to 30 per trade
- 9:22would you be risking your entire account
- 9:24on a trade would you be taking 10 trades
- 9:27a day and would you be okay with losing
- 9:2910 trades every single day with that
- 9:31high of a risk
- 9:32you probably wouldn't especially if it
- 9:34was two hundred thousand dollars
- 9:36and you're probably saying tjr my
- 9:38account's not at that size right now I
- 9:40know it's not at that size
- 9:42but you have to treat it as if it is at
- 9:44that size because that's just like you
- 9:46know some [ __ ] ass kid in high school
- 9:48or in college saying I don't got to do
- 9:51this I don't got to do that I'm not in
- 9:52the NBA yet well how the [ __ ] do you
- 9:54think you're going to get into the NBA
- 9:56how how the [ __ ] do you expect yourself
- 9:59to get to that point if you can't even
- 10:02act and hold yourself like the people
- 10:04that that are already doing that are you
- 10:07know how do you expect to get there you
- 10:09really think you're going to do it a
- 10:11different way you really think of all
- 10:12these people that are doing this
- 10:13successfully you really think that you
- 10:15can do it a different way
- 10:19right let's let's think about this okay
- 10:22so
- 10:24now that we understand all that
- 10:26perfect
- 10:28[ __ ] stick to it that's what risk
- 10:30management risk management is clap it up
- 10:33you figured it out you're done
- 10:36now you just gotta stick to it and
- 10:38that's the hard part so
- 10:41super [ __ ] easy video today write
- 10:44down in your notes risk management what
- 10:46am I risking one to three percent per
- 10:49trade
- 10:50how many trades am I taking per day
- 10:54this is what I would like to say risk
- 10:57one to three percent of your account per
- 11:00day
- 11:01that just makes it easy that makes it
- 11:03the easiest thing possible because then
- 11:05it's like okay I can take
- 11:09two trades with 1.5 risk
- 11:12or I can take one trade with one percent
- 11:14risk I can take one trade with three
- 11:16percent risk I can take three trades
- 11:18with one percent risk
- 11:20either way you're still within that
- 11:22threshold
- 11:24and you can take you know one or two
- 11:26setups right if you see two setups for
- 11:28the day perfect and guys the nice thing
- 11:30is you're not always going to see
- 11:32multiple setups every day you know who
- 11:34knows some days you might not see any
- 11:35setups and you risk zero on the day
- 11:37other times you see two setups and you
- 11:39wanna you know go heavier on the wrist
- 11:41because all the biases are aligning
- 11:43right and that we'll cover that in this
- 11:45course as well but for risk management
- 11:48one to three percent a day because all
- 11:52you're doing here is living to trade
- 11:54another day if you can live to trade
- 11:55another day there will always be setups
- 11:57tomorrow this Market is not going
- 11:59anywhere this Market's not going
- 12:01anywhere so stop trying to rush the
- 12:03process drop like you guys realize
- 12:05you're trying to go from zero to 100K in
- 12:07under a month do you realize how [ __ ]
- 12:10stupid that sounds you are
- 12:12me okay that's you that's you it is you
- 12:15okay that is that is you if you think
- 12:18that is possible if you're the if you

- 13:23right and under understand that this
- 13:25will take time okay the money's not
- 13:28going to happen in one day but again
- 13:30think about what we've said previously
- 13:32we are here to learn the skill initially
- 13:35the money will come and that is very
- 13:38very difficult for Traders to understand
- 13:40especially new Traders or Traders people
- 13:42learning how to trade
- 13:44they want money first
- 13:47and that's it they don't they don't even
- 13:49think about the skill they're just like
- 13:50me want money give give it okay [ __ ]
- 13:55you won't get it okay you're not you're
- 13:59not going to get that money because you
- 14:01could give a [ __ ] about learning the
- 14:02skill all you want is the [ __ ] money
- 14:04why don't you dedicate instead of
- 14:06dedicating your life to I want to make
- 14:07money
- 14:08dedicate this [ __ ] to I want to actually
- 14:11learn how the [ __ ] these charts move
- 14:13because once you understand that
- 14:16money is [ __ ] Limitless if you know
- 14:19where a chart is going to go that
- 14:21literally
- 14:22is is a is literally showing you where
- 14:27the economy is going in terms of like
- 14:29the S P 500 or literally the dxy if you
- 14:33can read that chart you have Insider
- 14:35information
- 14:36and that it that in itself is an
- 14:38infinite money glitch
- 14:40and that's what you have to understand
- 14:41it's the skill that's the glitch
- 14:44it I don't know I don't know what you
- 14:47think I don't know what you think you
- 14:50know your [ __ ] ass over leverage

- 14:58Banking and hoping that you can get one
- 15:00trade to hit one trade to get you out of
- 15:02the fat ass hole that you've been in
- 15:04news flash buddy you're digging it
- 15:06[ __ ] deeper with every single one of
- 15:08those that you take because guess what I

- 15:26literally like beating my ass over the
- 15:29money because it took me a while to get

- 15:33um so yeah don't fall into the stupid
- 15:37ass trap of thinking you're going to get
- 15:38rich quick and risking a lot this is a
- 15:41risk on game and there's no point in
- 15:43risk putting risk on when you don't when
