5 Success Tips from 7-Figure Day Trader, Tim Grittani

Full show notes: chatwithtraders... - - Tune in to the journey of an incredibly talented intraday trader, who has transformed a $3,000 account into almost $3,000,000 - within the space of just a few years.
It was early 2012 when he first ventured into the jungle of penny stocks. After catching on to how these markets operated and understood the manipulation, he certainly mastered a few setups that paid him generously over and over again. Eventually he hit a few limitations, and now he’s predominantly a short-seller of NASDAQ stocks, which makes for an interesting segment during this interview.
He is undoubtedly one guy you should pay close attention to, and his name is Tim Grittani, aka @KroyRunner89.
Looking back, Tim has now pinpointed the 5 key factors that have contributed to the majority of his success to date, and breakdowns each of them over the next 40+ minutes.
Plus, you’ll also hear about the events that lead up to his gigantic single trade loss of $290,000 during October last year. This will give you a great appreciation of just how bad things can get when you go against your trading rules. Because as you’ll hear when the ongoing problem surfaced, it got ugly - real quick!

[@OneCreator87]

Practical points from 010: - Closing trades randomly or based on money (P/L) is not ideal, use the charts instead. - Register the performance for a set of rules for later self-reflection and analysis. - Focus and practice what you are good at. - Be selective and quick when trading promotions. - Refusing to cut losses, leads to BIG losses. - The 5 factors that lead to success: 1) Use the right broker for your strategy needs. 2) Focus on liquid/volatile markets: more meaningful returns. 3) Identify and focus on your niche (whatever feels comfortable). 4) Don't believe the hype (fundamentals), trust the chart. 5) Cut your losses the smart way, don't use arbitrary levels or numbers, use your charts. - Market scanners can be very useful tools.

[@visurame]

hi i have a question..what if i bought 10000 shares of 50 $ share....will it change the market?? by buying a 10000 shares will i make a great supply and make the stock to go down??

[@ChatWithTradersPodcast]

+viswa Rock - it depends how much volume is traded on any given stock, by how much market impact a transaction of this size would have.

[@arupian666]

If you buy that many shares of a highly illiquid stock, then probably yes... for instance... AMSF is trading at $58... it's average volume is 93,000/day... if you bought 10,000 shares, then yes, that would probably move the needle considering you just bought more than 10% of the entire average daily volume. MSFT on the other hand, trading at $57, has an average daily volume of almost 31 million. So in that case, no. Drop in the ocean.

[@jettcadet]

Viswa Ramesh depends on the volume float and outstanding shares. A $50 stock is most likely a large company with many outstanding shares so you would have to buy a lot to really influence the price. Typically institutional buyers and sellers have the power to influence a large stock.

[@stoicsthoughts]

[@Rainx-of4lg]

Im 16 and I'm really scared for my future. I dont want to work for a boss, I want to work for myself. The only option so far I'm looking for is the Stock Market. I'm really scared if I try it I will fail at it miserably. I need help where can I learn about the stock market? Should I just keep feeding myself these videos or find another source?

[@ChatWithTradersPodcast]

+Rainx5000 there's a good chance you will fail as a trader in the beginning - pretty much everyone does, but it's nothing to be scared of... Accept it takes time to build skill. So, learn as much as you can (these podcasts are a good resource, but there are also other great resources), open a paper trading account, and start out small.

[@schrodingerscat3912]

+Rainx5000 you need to have a strategy that is non-random. meaning it is a real profitable strategy that makes money in general. then you need a small fortune to invest. you have fundamental strategies, technical strategies, and quantitative strategies. The best 'technical indicators' are the ones based on statistics: moving averages, Bollinger bands, heiken-ashi, VIX-FIX, seasonality, etc. dont waste your time with superstitions like dow theory or market harmonics, stay close to science. statistics and fundamentals is your only weapon in this business. The best strategies are market neutral, and the most useful risk management tool is the kelly criterion. learn Warren Buffets value investing approach for investing, and Larry Williams strategies for trading. learn about other markets, bonds, forex, futures, options, alternatives, real estate etc.

[@tashee8772]

+Chat With Traders could you recommend a decent paper trading account service?

[@ChatWithTradersPodcast]

+Joel Cornette sure thing, I'd suggest Think Or Swim - they have a great platform for paper trading. It's quick and easy to get setup and start using.

[@RisheshSingh]

fully agreed.

[@R4HeR]

[@Shawk95]

Is there a futures market for OTC or penny stocks?

[@glennbaker972]

Great video for the basics

[@ynoter1]

What does shorting mean? For example you said Tim pretty much only short sells.

[@ChatWithTradersPodcast]

+ynoter1 trading a 'short' position is when you bet the price will decline, meaning you make money from the price going down. It's the opposite to trading a 'long' position, where you make money from the price going up.

[@benjaminhowell9014]

I will explain one way of shorting a stock. Say you want to short XYZ company. The current market price is $100/share. You go to your broker and borrow 10 shares and sell them for 100/share right away ($1000+). Two things can now happen. Say the price of the stock goes down to $50/share. One will then buy he stock and bring those shares back to his broker. The profit is $500+ (not including interest if there is any). another thing such as if the price goes up can happen, say to $150/share. Before it goes hirer so that you cut your losses, you buy 10 shares for $1500 and return those to your broker. You have just lost $500 (and probably your confidence lol)

[@ChatWithTradersPodcast]

+Ben Howell thanks for elaborating Ben.

[@dibblydooda7604]

I think it means he is a midget.

[@chicagomycity]

I do not get the allure of penny stocks.......why deal with unpredictable pumping/dumping, poor liquidity, wide bid/ask spreads and constant gapping when you can just buy options on large/mid caps stocks? Options renders the whole "my account is too small" logic null. Because you can benefit from the UPSIDE and the DOWNSIDE of equities that move at least a 1.00 per day on average without buying expensive shares.

[@booosbooos8806]

Truth is they make more money selling product than they do trading. So what? If they impart knowledge on you which makes you a more profitable trader, then it it's worth the cost, right? However, it would be nice for a little more upfront disclosure. Something like "I make roughly 5-8% of my monthly income from trading alone"

I don't think any real good traders give up anything really important...they say stuff that is common sense to me like "do what you're best at" well i'm best at losing money so guess i'll just keep doin that lmao. The only useful thing I saw in a comment summarizing this video (didn't watch video yet) was to not do a flat takeprofit / stoploss...which is probably good advice. It still doesn't tell you what to do tho just says "use the charts instead" lol i'm assuming trend / s/r but I mean that's the shit we want to really know how to do...patterns, strategy, etc. and these guys don't give out those secrets because if the 99% losing money learned that shit, then the 1% wouldn't be the 1% anymore

Absolutely ridiculous. One day, if I make it, I will give out my knowledge for free.

[@uniikkiz]

Trading consistently and profitably requires a very developed learning capability, working memory, reasoning ability, emotion management, innovative thinking skills and the ability to simultaneously address several problems. Its actually scary how closely these traits are connected to the traits they test in actual IQ tests. I bet one could find successful traders have a very high IQ. Statistics confirm that 10% are successful. You must have the IQ in the top 10% and that would be 121 or more to be successful. Case closed.

Poor interviewing skills, you have Tim on and you don't ask about size how often he trades what he waits for, just a simple of conversation I waited but nothing for the interviewer what a shame. He does the impossible and you don't ask him about size of trade to get there? too bad. I rated this a thumbs down only because the interviewer was poor. Tim well done sorry this guy wasted your time!

[@litt5211]

Size? Pff size is easy: You have a starter size when the move is in your favor and you build that size up as the move continues to be in your favor. So for example start with 500 shares (long or short depending on the move being in your favor off course long or short) and ad more size of 500 blocks along the way as the move continues: So you can end up with 1000/5000 shares in your favor making more profits as the move continues in your favor. And it is not about how often he trades: It's about how often will the market give you the opportunity to trade giving you the exact setups/patterns you have been waiting for.

[@manja7130]

how do you lose 292k with 5k shares.....?

[@zlisc561]

You're just an idiot. If you did research you would figure out Tim posts all of his trades on profitly with his share size included. Just because you're too fucking stupid to figure something out on your own does not mean that you should dislike the video. This channel is great and you are lucky you are even listened to this interview.

[@MatsuoKun]

Awesome, Budd. I'm always on the lookout for a great source for trading strats. Let me know when you start doing interviews better than Aaron's.
