- 2:19kind of suck the life out of you a
- 2:20little bit when you're when you're doing
- 2:21these day in and day out and then also
- 2:23trying to manage
- 2:24you're trading manage three businesses
- 2:28it's it's a lot
- 2:30um and and I'm doing this solo over here
- 2:32it's uh it's pretty difficult but
- 2:36um yeah I to be honest I don't really
- 2:37know what this uh what the psychology
- 2:39vid is going to be on today where we're
- 2:42kind of just shooting the [ __ ]
- 2:44um
- 2:45let me think what have we already
- 2:46covered covered how to take a loss
- 2:49covered how to take a win
- 2:51um we covered
- 2:54covered greed in the market a little bit
- 2:58um see I wish I could make that trading
- 2:59plan video today
- 3:02um
- 3:05let's think what was something that I
- 3:06was uh
- 3:08oh here we go perfect
- 3:10let's talk about overconfidence bro
- 3:12let's talk about some overconfidence
- 3:13because
- 3:14um today this is this is something that
- 3:16I was that I was thinking about and that
- 3:18I very easily could have fallen into so
- 3:21today we we obviously hit a great trade
- 3:23you guys probably saw the trade recap
- 3:25video right we hit all of our take
- 3:26profits and you know as a beginner
- 3:28Trader if that if I if I took that trade
- 3:31as a beginner Trader I immediately would
- 3:33have been got would have got back right
- 3:34on the charts and started searching for
- 3:37another trade started searching like how
- 3:39can I turn these profits into something
- 3:41even more and that is a terrible mindset
- 3:43to have that's like that's that's that
- 3:45greedy mindset that's that
- 3:47overconfidence right you need to
- 3:48understand that we're playing purely off
- 3:50of probabilities over here
- 3:52right and damn that damn shoulder vein
- 4:00um but yeah we're playing purely off of
- 4:02uh off of probabilities and that's what
- 4:04trading is we're playing off
- 4:06probabilities and the lower probability
- 4:08that you have
- 4:09um the the less likely you are to to win
- 4:12right so if we if we go into a trade
- 4:16right at the beginning at the beginning
- 4:18of Market open right based on how we
- 4:21trade that is when right price and time
- 4:24theory that is when we are going to be
- 4:26most probable right because that's where
- 4:27new money comes into the market we
- 4:29usually see a liquidity sweep we see
- 4:31orders get filled all these new orders
- 4:33that are coming into the market they
- 4:34have to get filled to push price in
- 4:35whatever Direction it wants to
- 4:38right and this is why I always say I
- 4:40only want to take like one to two trades
- 4:42if anything like one trade is best a day
- 4:44because
- 4:46right
- 4:48you're taking that first trade that's
- 4:50super high probability and then
- 4:52everything after that volume starts to
- 4:53die out right
- 4:56um you won't be able to catch the top or
- 4:57the bottom of the move you're catching
- 4:58retracements you're catching lower risk
- 5:00reward trades you have to wait for
- 5:02trades to develop longer because
- 5:05um they're literally just taking a while
- 5:07to um to play out and that's never fun
- 5:11um so yeah let's talk about
- 5:13overconfidence
- 5:15um and that isn't even like
- 5:17this also isn't even like a like
- 5:20something where um
- 5:22you know like where where it has to do
- 5:25with over trading really because like
- 5:27yeah you can be overconfident and take a
- 5:29bunch of Trades and then lose a bunch of
- 5:31them because you think every single one
- 5:33is like the trade that's gonna make you
- 5:35guess what you're not going to take one
- 5:37single trade that's going to make you or
- 5:39get you out of that damn hole that you
- 5:40dug yourself in in the first place if
- 5:43anything if you're searching for that
- 5:44one trade to get you out you're
- 5:46literally way better off putting it all
- 5:48on black or putting it all on red bro
- 5:49like a hundred percent you are way
- 5:51better off doing it
- 5:53the gambling route then going through
- 5:55the trading route because one you're
- 5:58playing off of greed you're playing off
- 5:59of emotions and that already lowers your
- 6:02probability because you're forcing a
- 6:03trade that's low probability that you
- 6:05haven't even thought out that you kind
- 6:07of force your bias upon the market when
- 6:09the market isn't even primed for that
- 6:13um and and it's just going to be low
- 6:15probability and you're going to try and
- 6:16catch a crazy risk reward
- 6:18with crazy high leverage and it'll
- 6:21probably be like your fifth or sixth
- 6:22trade for the day
- 6:23um and that's just stupid okay so how
- 6:26can we avoid being overconfident right
- 6:28it's simple right understand that we're
- 6:30playing purely off of probability
- 6:34uh and also understand bro you are a
- 6:37beginner Trader why are you watching
- 6:39this video right now because you are
- 6:41unfucking profitable put it in your head
- 6:44that you are not profitable
- 6:47you are not profitable bro you are not
- 6:51profitable so stop stop
- 6:54leveraging and stop taking five trades a
- 6:58day at like you you think you are
- 7:01profitable
- 7:02profitable Traders don't do that in the
- 7:04first place
- 7:05so why the [ __ ] are you doing it when
- 7:07you can't even trade be open and be
- 7:10accepting to knowing that hey I'm not
- 7:13profitable
- 7:14and that's okay
- 7:16I'm here to learn
- 7:18so when you get into the markets with
- 7:21that headspace of knowing that you're
- 7:23not profitable
- 7:26it kills that overconfidence immediately
- 7:29and if you can sit there and think okay
- 7:32yeah I'm here I'm here to play off of
- 7:34probability and you have to understand
- 7:36yes I'm very very very open to taking a
- 7:40loss because I know at the end of the
- 7:41day once I get learn this skill once I
- 7:44get the skill I will be probable and I
- 7:47will be profitable within the market
- 7:49if you go into the market
- 7:52with such there's there's a very small
- 7:56line that you have to be in when it
- 7:58comes to confidence and trading there's
- 7:59the overconfidence side and then there's
- 8:01the under confidence side where it's
- 8:03fear you can't get caught in fear and
- 8:05you can't get caught in overconfidence
- 8:07you have to be confident enough to take
- 8:09the trade not overconfident enough to
- 8:11over risk over leverage and over trade
- 8:13and you also can't be scared enough to
- 8:15where you miss your entry and under
- 8:18leverage and you know not taking the
- 8:20trade maybe waiting like too long to
- 8:23take the trade too long to pull the
- 8:25trigger
- 8:26okay and that's that's the biggest thing
- 8:29with trading it's not falling in the
- 8:31into the Trap of fear not following in
- 8:33into the Trap of overconfidence because
- 8:35if you're overconfident in the market
- 8:36and you think yeah I'm going to be 100
- 8:39win rate I can take a trade whenever I
- 8:41want and it'll hit take profit or I know
- 8:43how to read the markets now so it's just
- 8:45going to go my way every single time you
- 8:47see how that's a bad headspace to have
- 8:49because then guess what guess what
- 8:51happens when you lose a trade
- 8:53uh oh boom kills that confidence
- 8:56immediately and now you're in that fear
- 8:58Zone puts you from all the way up here
- 9:00to all the way to back down there
- 9:02because guess what you were over
- 9:04leveraging and over risking now you just
- 9:05lost like a couple you know a couple
- 9:07Grand on your 5K account
- 9:10and you're wondering why that happened
- 9:15for really
- 9:18flow really
- 9:20you know what I'm saying so let's be
- 9:22realistic with it guys
- 9:24give me a sec
- 9:29understand you're not profitable you're
- 9:32here to learn you're here to learn the
- 9:33skill and once you do learn the skill
- 9:35once you develop that confidence
- 9:38don't get ahead of yourself understand
- 9:39that losses are going to come even if
- 9:41you get a win streak when I'm on a win
- 9:43streak you guys I almost am encouraging
- 9:46a loss I almost want to see a loss come
- 9:48because I it'll prove to me that I'm
- 9:50human again
- 9:51because when I'm on a win streak and I'm
- 9:53winning trade winning trade winning
- 9:55trade lots of money lots of money lots
- 9:57of money that can get into your head
- 9:59really really quick so if anything when
- 10:01that's happening I'm like I know a loss
- 10:03is coming I know a loss is coming I'm
- 10:05realistic I know a loss is coming I'm
- 10:07not perfect in these markets this is
- 10:09great this is awesome that I'm making
- 10:11all this money but I know a loss is
- 10:12coming so I can't get ahead of myself
- 10:13and you guys need to think the same way
- 10:15especially you guys especially need to
- 10:16think that same way because y'all aren't
- 10:18even y'all aren't even making money
- 10:19doing this yet right if you guys get
- 10:22like a little win streak say
- 10:25okay that's good I'm learning
- 10:28however we have to know that a loss is
- 10:31coming we haven't you haven't even
- 10:32proved it to yourself yet that you are
- 10:35profitable you haven't even proven it to
- 10:37yourself that over the like a solid
- 10:39course of time that you are going to be
- 10:41profitable Within These markets okay and
- 10:44then when you can prove that to yourself
- 10:45when you can prove that to yourself that
- 10:47you're profitable in these markets
- 10:49remember what got you there remember the
- 10:53skills that you learn to become
- 10:55profitable remember that okay well
- 10:58I was doing everything correctly I was
- 11:00using risk management I wasn't over
- 11:02leveraging I wasn't over trading I was
- 11:04doing everything correctly
- 11:06to get to this point so why would you
- 11:09change anything once you've proven to
- 11:11yourself
- 11:13that you're profitable and that you can
- 11:14do this wouldn't you want to keep doing
- 11:16the same [ __ ] that proved it to yourself
- 11:18in the first place why would you stray
- 11:19away from the [ __ ] that got you there
- 11:22you get what I'm saying so if anything
- 11:25this is uh this is kind of like a an
- 11:27in-between of like okay be confident but
- 11:30not too confident and also be confident
- 11:32but not
- 11:33fearful okay find that balance and find
- 11:37how it works with you and your trading
- 11:40whether that means like okay we're
- 11:42taking just one trade a day and we're
- 11:44seeing what my win rate is and we're
- 11:46seeing you know
- 11:48literally if we're profitable off of
- 11:49that and then it's like okay cool if I'm
- 11:51if I'm losing a lot no reason to be feel
- 11:54fearful no reason to be fearful means
- 11:57use a demo right no no reason to be
- 12:00fearful in the markets it means use a
- 12:01demo account you clearly aren't there
- 12:03yet okay Master yourself on demo gain
- 12:06that confidence over them demo don't get
- 12:09too confident
- 12:10right because the worst thing you can do
- 12:12is prove to yourself that you are
- 12:15profitable over demo and jump into a
- 12:17live account and then once you get onto
- 12:19that live account you understand that
- 12:21you're using real money and you have the
- 12:22potential to make a lot of money
- 12:24and start over risking and over
- 12:25leveraging
- 12:27that happened to me I was profitable on
- 12:29demo and then guess what happened
- 12:31boom go into a live account and not just
- 12:34get screwed because I knew I was using
- 12:36live money and I knew
- 12:38I knew I was using real money
- 12:42um
- 12:43and I wanted to make a lot of money
- 12:45because I was like well I already know
- 12:47how to trade I was profitable on demo
- 12:49let me just like up my leverage a little
- 12:51bit and and we'll do it a lot faster no
- 12:53bro remember what got you to the point
- 12:56that you're at
- 12:58and and I'm going to be a [ __ ] broken
