“Don’t Manage the Money… Manage the Trade” - Scalping w/ 2yrflipper

4/25/2024
Jeff (2yrflipper) is back for a deeper dive into the art of scalping, as he emphasizes the importance of knowing when to scratch a trade and how to catch edges. Jeff discusses the significance of correlations in scalping and the importance of staying organized, as well as his use of delta and timers in his trading strategy. Jeff recommends starting with a one-lot position size to maintain consistency and learn from each trade, and to focus on managing the trade rather than the money. Developing quick twitch muscles and practicing clicking fast can benefit new scalpers, as well as looking for anomalies in the DOM and time and sales to identify opportunities for scalping. Scalping requires dedication and the ability to stay focused for long periods of time, and Jeff emphasizes the importance of executing trades only when there is a perceived edge and staying away when there isn't.

Apex Fills & Using Momentum - Roundtable

4/14/2024
This week’s roundtable features a lively discussion around Mr. Banks’s recent “experience” with an Apex eval account, and Fleri shares some ideas about how to incorporate momentum into our trading. The panelists discuss their experiences with Apex, highlighting issues such as lack of transparency and poor customer service while also mentioning Top Step as a prop firm with good customer service. In terms of gauging momentum, they emphasize the importance of watching rotations and levels, as well as volume and tape reading, to determine the strength of a move. They discuss the significance of counter rotations and the disrespecting of support or resistance levels as indicators of momentum. The good, bad, and ugly highlights the importance of taking a step back after an unfortunate event and everyone makes Bold Masters Predictions in honor of Baba Yaga!

“Only a Trader Could Understand This” - Humanity w/ Anthony Crudele

4/11/2024
Anthony Crudele, host of Futures Radio Show joins Cleo and me to share how he got into trading and podcasting, and the (mostly) positive impacts of them on his personal life. The conversation then shifts towards sustaining success and how it can be harder than attaining it initially. Anthony shares how the pressure to keep what you have and continue building on it can be overwhelming… External and internal pressures, such as expectations from others and the fear of losing what you've gained, make sustaining success difficult. Navigating this requires envisioning yourself as a successful trader, acting as if you are already successful, and seeking guidance from mentors or successful individuals. Anthony then talks about his growth as a trader and how he has learned to slow things down and be more patient. He shares how his relationship with trading has evolved and how he now sees it as a puzzle to solve rather than a constant chase for profits. They also discuss the challenges Anthony is currently facing and how he deals with losses and setbacks before concluding with a reflection on how trading has shaped him as a person.

Cleo returns in a new installment of The Humanity of Trading, this time with fellow band member Perdue to discuss the psychological challenges he encounters in trading. While talking about the importance of finding focus and flow in trading, Perdue shares how he creates an environment that allows him to be in his zone and perform at his best. He also talks about finding outlets for frustration and how he channels his energy into other activities like working out and pursuing adrenaline-inducing hobbies. Perdue shares his personal rituals and triggers that help him get into the trading mindset before moving on to overcoming internal obstacles and the role of personal development in trading. Other topics touched on include the benefits of listening to music and motivational talks while trading, the influence of Rich Friesen on positive self-talk, understanding meditation and mental discipline, the importance of putting in the work in trading, recognizing negative self-talk and reframing, the problem with proprietary trading strategies, the value of sharing and giving credit in trading, the culture of scams and predators in trading, finding outlets for anger in trading, and knowing your place in the market.
