[@minht5588]

Props to Kristjan for being very open about his strategies, account size, etc. Sounds like a humble guy. I appreciate that he streams his trading session without any chatroom dues.

[@rashidkhan-xm4rl]

agreed with everything is said

[@50Options]

I have that feeling that he is a genuine person. I myself have switched from day-trading to swing and selling covered calls and NO more chasing penny stocks, and most importantly, I know how to control my urgency to not fall to pump up break out and FOMO mentality.

[@kiklocus4660]

he basically said simple things, cutting the losses fast.

[@swingtrader369]

@@kiklocus4660 simple things but most traders find it hard to execute it if there's no proper position sizing and trading plan which can cause emotion involved in decision making.

[@whathuh6965]

Streams where? because I never heard of this trader. For anything this can all be a scam to lead people to some course or membership. I personally am not convinced that he took $9,000k and converted it to $84million dollars. If that's the case, then I being someone who codes AI trading Algorithms should have no problem coding his strategy into a trading algo easily. I just need to verify if this is true or not. If it is and he is a legit individual, then I'll code his strategy into an algo.

[@jackwilson2756]

Most wise investors with crypto uses the opportunity of when there is a drop in the market to buy and day trade with a working strategy and a plan to navigate the market system using the low price in the market to trade daily speculating the increase in price. Get a working plan today for that profit-making. fact is, BTC is the future of crypto and the questions traders ask themselves now is if this is the right time to invest ? Before jumping into a conclusion I think you should take a look at things first,for the past few days the price of BTC has been fluctuating which means the market is currently unstable and you can't tell if is going bearish or bullish. while others still continues to trade without fear of losing, others are being patient. For me trading has been going well because I use a day trading system that helps m xde with signals which have made me to accumulate over 8.5btc in two weeks.get a working strategy with the help of an expert his on wtsap (+_1_3_4_6_3_4_4_7_1_4_5

[@ericson4534]

Thank u. 👌👍

[@marketdid2953]

Worth listening to. Very open. He tends to say "You shoud..." a lot. What he means to say is "this is the way I trade". He implies that what he does is what you should do (hence the constant 'you should's') ... also, he admits here 47:02 , that every word out of his mouth regarding what "you should do" doesn't work in a falling market. Again, worth listening to because the guy is self made millionaire from zero. The inspiration is that it IS indeed possible...but doing what YOU do and not necessarily what "he" does.

[@Qullamaggie]

No method works all of the time. Knowing when you push and when to sit on the sidelines are the biggest part in building an edge. Yes you are right, you should never do anything exactly as someone else, it's about finding your own style.

@@jakeschuler8069 I would like to tell it is different, but it’s so truth. I know some people that took courses from him and also one person that work for his investing firm in the past. They all are saying the same. He knows how to speak and catch people’s interest. But he makes his living by the money from others, which is not trading. He is a good sales person, like most in that industry, but there are far better teachers. Look up Larry Connor, Lina Raschke or Larry Williams. This a people you can learn from. Or look for people that are full-time trader, be willing to work for them for free, to learn everything from them.
