    In this video, I challenge myself to turn $1,000 into $5,000 by day trading futures with no previous experience. What could go wrong??

    I think this experiment reflects that of many people trying out day trading for the first time. Maybe you have some luck and you feel like you know what you're doing - until it all goes against you. Without a strong, backtested strategy and unemotional trading, you will fail as a day trader - like I did in this video.

    If you start with say 1k$ and you make some profits never use it in the beginning. Always use your first 1k$ till you made enough to now invest 2k and so on.
    Also set yourself a goal for the day/event. Do not get greedy. Say your goal is to make 100$ a day then just stop if you reached it. If you can hit this amount everytime or it getting quicker set a new goal and stop if you hit it.

Buffet and his gang of dip buyers start squeezing wholly owned subsidiaries and selling more auto insurance-- if the dividend isn't high they sell; and that's a glue to always make money; they buy back there own shares; or hedge w/gold which is what the small guys do. I don't do day trading because I never identified an error in short position trading, which is all day trading really is. It's not the way you trade it's how you read the markets.

    The number one way you messed up was what you said at the beginning, you didn't have a good plan and then secondarily you were basically risking too much each day. You should never risk more than about 10% (i'd say as a seasoned trader - but a new trader, 1-2%) of your overall account on any trade. Though I get what you were doing and honestly, most people do that exact thing, take the little bit of money they have, and trade on it each day. I started with 1,200 dollars and and in the beginning I would take a 100 dollar trade with a stop loss of 5 dollars (basically if i lost the trade i would come out with 95 dollars). It worked well for me and it really helped me get through the learning phase, because there is only so much paper trading can do and with small trades, i get all the experience and my bad trades were minimized and my good trades even if making 10 dollars or 15 dollars, were accounting for any losses i incurred before so for my case after 6 months i was break even and then i closed the year out with about 400 dollars profit which was amazing
    but very enjoyable video subbed.

    Dude! I have mad respect for you! The level of transparency you maintained *even while losing trades* was the model of how this should be done for most youtubers, especially businesses. Kudos! I found you while searching for something unrelated (though I've been searching for a lot of trading vids lately). I started March 2021 with $1,000. so your title grabbed me. But what blew my mind was the info on futures. I knew nothing about them and your video opened up a new world for me. I'll be deep diving your pool of knowledge and let you know how I fare after an initial test run. Thank you ever so much!

    As a former trader on the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, I have to say this video was quite refreshing. It's nice to see honest content about how quickly things can (and probably will) go against you. One thing, and maybe I missed it, is I think you should show how much your commissions were. Yes, you lost 1000 bucks, but I would bet that you actually traded very close to neutral, and that your commissions were the 1000 bucks you lost. That's what usually happens to most people since they are essentially flipping a coin. I'd also think another video explaining your tax situation after trading is something that merits investigation. I think most young traders go into this not realizing that at worst they might get a surprising large tax bill, but at the very least are complicating their tax situation--you probably won't be able to file that 1040EZ (if that's still a thing) anymore. Anyway, you earned a like and a sub from me. Great video!

    If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions and and look outward, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability.

    There's something interesting about just starting out and making solid gains. You have a different mind set initially; no biases. You're open to the market information, and not willing it to go in some direction, or another. You simply observe, and respond. After a few days of success, you think you've got a handle on it, and that's where you start making mistakes. That's the key to "beginner's luck", and I think the knack lies in getting back to that mental state when trading.

If I get to the point where I started the day with 5k I made trades and now I have 6k the moment I come back down to 5k I’m done for the day also I typically shoot for a 3-10% depending on how comfortable I was with the day determines the finishing gains idc if I’m in a short squeeze idc about nothing my max gain every day is 10% I’m not looking for 11% idc about making 50% or even more than that, I’m done for the day after 10% greed has killed my vibe greed has blown up my account greed will have you watch 9k turn to 75k and then you watch it go all the way back down to 25k I’m not making dumb mistakes like those ever again.

But with knowledge, discipline, and an understanding of the above principles, you can ensure you don't. You won't lose money on a US treasury bond held to maturity for example. You can even be sure to make that profit quickly, depending on how close the bond is to maturity. But in that case the profit will be very, very small.
