I started off with 3k. Got my account up to 100K and now I'm down to 45K. Yup, that's how much I loss in just a few months. What did I learn? I got lucky on some nice swings. As far as actually day trading...I was making all the usual mistakes and loss over 50% of my account in just a few months. Now, I'm using risk management on each trade (no more than a 2% loss) and noticed my account is moving back up. Right now, I'm trading with all profit now. My original 3k got put my back into my bank account. It still sucks losing over 50K, even if it's all profit. Hard lessoned learned. But now, I made a bunch of rules and I follow them to the T. Now, my wins are a lot bigger than my 2% losses.
Steven this is one of the best videos (if your RUclips contents are this good, no one will buy your dvd) I've seen from you. I've been following you for over a year and I must admit your contents are the most relevant. You're one of the reasons I've been profitable and slowly building up my stats.
Thank you, great video I have experienced all of these aswell! My biggest loss has taught me to only use x1 leverage never use anyone elses money because if you do an lose, you won't have the equity to gain it back!
One thing that helped me was to stop looking back on stock prices after I got out. I did that for a long time and it always caused me to hold on too long the next time. I also stopped looking at dollars made or lost but instead only look at percentages.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. Watching this just reminded me I have broken one of my rules. Lost 100% of my profit and pulled out of the market for nearly 3 months. I feel like I have amnesia. Thanks again, Steven.
Great advice, especially about not trading the same ticker multiple times. 🤔 I think each time you trade and lose, you attached biases around your thought process with that ticker, therefore each successive trade results in less and less clarity.
Hey Steven thanks for talking about these losses. I took some big losses before from over trading several times and with size, and letting my risk fly. I would probably be a millionaire already but I literally have that one day I take a big loss every few months. Trying so hard to stop it by sticking to 2 try rule
The reason your overtrading is becuse your trading any patterns. Stick to one pattern. First test your pattern and find out the win percentage. Then just trade that pattern.
Good video steve #2 is REVENGE trading not over trading but yes more or less same concept, there is a difference between overtrading and revenge trading
Yeah, similar concept, also something I experienced before. I lost 50% of my account because of this. However, I learned to control my emotions, and regained what I lost. Trading you need to be humble, or get humbled!
That is where I'm at now. I had a lot a money and now pretty much lost it all and now can only make 3 trades a week. Hard to live with. But will say. Got lucky when I started trading 3 trades a week starting Oct. 25th but have at least stayed green with all winning trades but one and that should have been a tiny loss but held and cost me pretty good but still green. So working hard on it. Now I have to build my account where I can trade all I want again. Thanks for the Video. Appreciate it. :)
The worst trades I get are the ones that have huge range in the pre-market. It spiked huge, but then fell down really low. So on the open push, maybe lowish float, you don't know where to set your limits at when there are so many tops in the pre-market chart. Could it be here? or one slightly above? That's what happened. 1) average push %... okay entry. nope. 2) okay, it's gotta be at the whole number. break through that. 3) now at the PMH. definitely gotta be it here. nope. 4) slightly broke PMH, then halt up. since it broke PMH, you just wait, because it could go long. but then 3 minutes later, it cracks huge red candle, and you were not in at all. just close the laptop.
Hello steven thank you for the videos. I have a question. what brokerage do you use the short stocks because a lot of brokers dont have most of the stocks that gap up in the day as Easy to borrow. Can you help?
Thank you for the video Steve! I’m currently thinking about buying 1st Tier or 2nd Tier and I’m wondering if I get the same Chatroom access with 1st tier as 2nd tier?
All in bad down trends if you went calls. Theta killer since all move extremely slow. Cut losses would be what I do and reposition on pypl on a red month by going a leap. You'll get your money back
Hi Steven i ve a question am doing my data statistics andIneedyour help...if a stock gap up and run for 2-3 days 500% should i track the 3 days as one or separate? Thank for your help
Steven, if I have an 85% probability that stocks with defined criteria will not gap up more than x% in current market conditions, then why would that be a beginner mistake to short into that zone with defined risk above that level?
I made a similar mistake and blew up my account and lost about $250K in CAR when it kept halting up. I thought it was impossible to rise that high in one day, but it did. Be very careful guys when trading halt. Stock has a way of doing what you think is impossible so accept your small loss before you lose everything.
@@bartvanneste9301 , I shorted at $325. Could have gotten out around $300 and book $25K profit, but I decided to hold thinking it would go down to $250, but it didn't. Eventually, it did go down to $250 as I predicted, but a few days later. Thanks for the advice. I'll keep it in mind.

Thanks great advice Steven , that is exactly what I have been doing over trading and ending up losing more.
Make your adjustments and learn from your mistakes as I do.
Training emotions definitely need to be in check in my case ...still learning everyday
This is tough Steve but I will keep trying. Thank you!
You got this!
These are actually pretty good advices in general. As a trader, I can for sure relate somehow
Thanks especially for that last tip. Capital is what keeps you in the game. Without it you're toast

Glad it was helpful!
Hi Steven can you please show us an example of how you read past stock data to plan future strategies? Thanks
Can you explain how you track your statistics? I day trade and I am trying to track my day trades. Thank you for the video.
You are clearly highly skilled and intuitive with the market.i am trying to absorb as much of that as i can😅😉😁

is Gold VS USD is good for beginner trader? many thanks
Love the vids 🔥
What scanner you are using to find the potential tickers to trade?
Steven, if I have an 85% probability that stocks with defined criteria will not gap up more than x% in current market conditions, then why would that be a beginner mistake to short into that zone with defined risk above that level?
Not making other trades before my initial trade covers it's own losses or what would be a loss given the next purchase.
Hello Steve thanks for your videos. I want ask if you can make for us a cours
