That was, without doubt, the finest most content filled video I have ever watched on the art and skill of successful trading and I’ve been watching several each week for almost one full year. I’m not your typical beginning trader. I’m 83 years old and embarked upon this journey in an effort to maintain my mental sharpness and if successful I would be able to increase my ability to step up my charitable giving. So thank you Mike for sharing your superior knowledge of the necessary skill sets that I am now positive that all profitable traders must enjoy in common.

It doesn't matter what anyone does or what image I have of the type of trades pros take. This is a personal journey and I'm continually delighted to be guided by you and the tribe at SMB. Thank you!

Appreciate the stories shared in the video. Moved by the related experience in strength and sports training/competing. Definitely see the correlations in recognizing when to size up in trades when the opportunity arises with appropriate risk management and when to wait for the signals. Day to day practice/building with records and milestones set through time, solid foundation, and test of challenge. Excellent trade example and I’m noticing to stack up fundamental variables w/ technicals. In the past I was primarily trading on strong technicals. Game changer learning the other component through SMB and being able to add this in trading process analysis. Great to be a learning, sharing, and growing from this trading community. 🏋️♂️📈

I started to get a traction when a) focusing on "stocks in play" trading stocks only b) drilling down intra-day to look for tight consolidation areas, wedges and areas around VWAP c) looking for intraday swing type of trades from established S/R levels. I'm not a CPT yet but thanks to SMB I feel like "not yet" instead of "not ever", I feel like I have a chance at least. Thank you.

I know that with your teaching I would have achieved my dream of becoming a professional and consistent trader. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video on how to become a consistent trader. I liked the video from the beginning to the end, especially the part about the playbook. I know that it will help me to improve my trading because I usually only look to make a technical trade with a proper set-up to open position based on my indicators. Now I know that professional traders take more variable in consideration to take a trade. Mike I think that you are a great educator and hope to learn a lot from your videos.
