ex Goldman Sachs Trader Tells Truth about Trading - Part 2

[@mwilliamsonn]

8 years later, I’m coming full circle and what he is saying holds so much more value. Context is king here. This is great

[@Siegefya]

And the stuff he's talking about here is literally still going on...brokers taking the other side, yep...that's why I don't know why people still claim to trade CFD's, or are acting like they are doing any serious damage on PFOF brokers...all of that sht is things a broker does to eat off of you, they don't care about having a high turnover.

[@InstituteofTrading]

Yes this channel is tun by Anton (me). I dont get to reply every day, but try every few weeks. Pretty busy with other stuff. To answer your question. Not huge and not a loss. built it up slowly and when i got into a position to play with the houses money i bet big on winners with tight stops and concentrated IPO portfolio in the late 90's.

[@InstituteofTrading]

....you are fighting the machines. If you want to do well in trading you have to take a more protfolio based approach and emulate hedge funds. This is exactly what we teach on the PTM Video series at the Institute website. We give you the skills to enable you to realise where the opportunities are across all asset classes, so you dont become a 1 dimensional trader (like one that ONLY trades ES). You can trade anything. And you go where the opportunities are. Thats your job as a trader. Follow $

[@stressboy4326]

Hi, can I ask =, what does it mean by asset classes? Like it was mentioned in the video by Anton that for new beginners, "your time horizon should be 1-3 months on each position, across asset classes." Does it mean like 3 Months Stocks, 3 Months Bonds, 3 Months CFDs, 3 Months Forex? And what does that entire statement mean in general? Would you be able to explain. Sorry, I'm also pretty new at this.

[@InstituteofTrading]

in the terms and conditions when you apply for an account AND ask them on email to confirm how they provide liquidity to the products you are trading.

[@InstituteofTrading]

You leverage as a broker by borrowing money and lending it to the accounts that always lose or are down, then hedge the positions on the other side of those that win by buying or shorting the underlying asset. Its not rocket science. Bucket them, 80% chance of winning, leverage it by borrowing money at close to zero and re-sell the leverage with a markup. They cant lose. Thats why they teach you to over-trade so you keep paying them.....

[@XTen1000DaysX]

Nothing beats screen time- -get in there, trade with a small account, or paper trade. You'll start to see what you're better at spotting, me particuarlly I'm good at shorting into resistance, and then longing the grind-up action anticipating a short-squeeze. I know how to do that because I focus on shorting, so spotting a short squeeze/grind up action is relatively easier for me because i was afraid of it, so now i use it to my advantage. I never short low floats, typicaly i go long on them IF the volume is there.

VWAP of course. But its not exactly beneficial to a trading strategy. Only slightlybeneficial to execution.

[@manictiger]

It depends on what kind of penny stocks you're talking about and what your strategy is. I tend to surf them, jumping from one to another. This gives me more experience, more opportunity exposure and, theoretically, better profit potential, but requires a mastery of emotions and good planning (before the day even starts). Start small and don't listen to anyone on which ones to be bullish or bearish on. Numbers and patterns never lie, scam or have bias.

Thanks for the comments Kenny. Appreciate the support....

[@InstituteofTrading]

Totally opposite. Successful traders dont have the time to live the models and bottles life. That life is for poor traders, back office morons pretending to be traders and brokers spanking their AMEX taking their clients out. If a trader HAS to go out with a client because they want them there, they will more than likely leave at 11pm these days. In Bull Market days '02-'07 out all night was required but far from models and bottles lifestyle. More like Fine Food & Wine, Champagne & Cigars

[@InstituteofTrading]

Hi Mark. Yes I do still trade and No you can not hire me to make you richer and No I will not answer to you as my client by managing your money for you. What you can do however is learn how I do it and emulate it by applying it yourself. This is why I created the Professional Trading Masterclass educational Video Series. It can be found at instutrade dott comm in the education section. Regards.

[@InstituteofTrading]

By S&T i think you mean Sales and Trading? Two very different functions. I would say however, 90% of the time you require top degree from top school these days. Also you need to build a track record. If you dont have top degree from top school, a track record is an absolute must!

[@InstituteofTrading]

Hi Tom. You just need to ask the broker. It should also be in their T's&C's when you apply / open your account. Shame is that most people dont read them and even if they did they wouldnt know what it means. On both sides of the pond it always takes the regulator a decade (minimum) to catch up. Usually after high profile screw ups and nasty things occuring to retail. Any of the guys on the accounts section will let you open for lower, but we state a minimum to eliminate gambling.

Don't over complicate trading - work out a method to pinch just a small % of an expected move, you don't need to be in the whole move, which is extremely hard to do anyway - little bits, lots of times = big profits - I've traded my own money for years regularly turning £20k into £100k in a year - I'm the other end of the trading spectrum, I'm lazy, I don't work many hours, I hate greed and If I make say £100k I'll take the next few years off, then start again once the funds drain down

He's right Equities is more volatile but it's a matter of how you're looking at it, Best to trade Forex on the long term, but with the cleaner charts there's much better chance of higher accuracy, and with the high leverage on that accuracy money can be made quicker. So it's a matter of lower risk, less accuracy but more frequency vs less frequency higher risk and higher accuracy.

Very nice. Old yet new info. I wasn't aware of my broker going against me. I think there is a computer that sees numbers and makes a move automatically. IF there is something that will go against something in particular, but not after an individual.

[@tensevo]

Nice insight that as culture changed and trading became cheaper through technological advancements, traders moved to make money for selves as individuals rather than for the firms they worked for, less capable ppl were hired to run these huge firms (ppl who probably knew they had no clue but wanted the glory) and of course we know what happened in 2008.
