[@renaldirizki8112]

2:18 What were you doing prior to trading, what were you doing before you got into this? 2:59 How did the interest in trading actually come a bit up? 4:43 What was your first introduction if you will, once you did start looking at the market... like where'd your experience begin there? 6:24 Tell me about, was it around 2015 that you started investing in or again a bit more active with the investing? 7:52 What gave you the idea to actually put your money into this lithium company? 9:57 Can you share just rough numbers about how much you made during this period? 11:24 Tell me about the motivator to go full time 13:58 Now I'm not sure where this fits into the timeline exactly but I.. did this may have also contributed in some way or being a bit of a motivator, you were diagnosed with some form of cancer right? 15:11 So what exactly is that (Hodgkin lymphoma)? 16:26 What causes it (Hodgkin lymphoma)? like is there anything they know of? or is it just pretty random? 17:30 How long did the chemo treatment take? 18:28 So you're all good now? 19:42 So how long have you been trading full time for, as of today? 20:20 When you did take the plunge to go 100% full time trading, was there anything else that you did to prepare? 23:35 Let me ask you, what misconceptions did you have or even if they weren't misconceptions maybe unexpected challenges or realizations that you came to, once you did began to trade full time? 25:26 How much money did you put in your actual trading account to get started? 27:29 So how much did you, what's the most you've drowned out on the account like you said? ... how much did you count down? 29:00 When you drew your account down to round about 8000 AUD, was there ever a point where you started to doubt your ability to be able to do this? 30:49 Did you have a point about or sort of an idea on you mind about when you may give up if this wasn't, like did you have a cut off point? 36:29 How have you been trading and has there been like obviously your account bounce from that 8000 AUD point, did you change what you were doing in any way? like was there a significant change, or did you just tighten up some things? ... give a real brief kinda overview to your style and approach to trading 38:15 So when you talked about scalping, how many trades just rough numbers here might you take on any given day? 41:04 When you drew your account down to round about that 8000 AUD mark, things kinda turn around from there ... did you do anything differently or did you just find a bit of groove in the market? like can you explain that a little bit 42:38 ... is this something that you'd like to see within the order book? 44:35 This particular example which you describe here, would this be something which you're looking to trade on a short sight, or is that a long opportunity? 46:52 Are there any steps you're taking currently, like deliberate steps to help you improve and get better? 48:15 What goes into the journal like if we would have look at that, what would we see? 50:35 Have you ever thought about specific goals for the upcoming 12 months? 53:36 Would you consider yourself to be consistently profitable? 56:07 One piece of advice which someone gave you or if they didn't give you directly maybe something you've heard or read somewhere that actually made a difference 59:54 Do you mind sharing some figures around there? 1:00:47 Would you mind sharing your handle (Twitter) This might help

I'm quiting a 150k a year job Thursday feb 6th 2020 to trade full time. I am excited to do this but a bit nervous. I too feel prepared and firmly believe I will succeed. Great story and thankyou for telling it.

[@deanoconnor6380]

Love the new angle on interviews .... this tangent is more around newbies and their journey .... love it!!

[@mypointofblue5260]

appreciate the newbie perspective. still learning and haven't traded anything yet.

[@ChrisJohnston364]

Keep interviewing these newer traders ! I believe it is what majority if your listeners will enjoy

[@mindgoesbodyfollows]

My partner is going through chemo for NHL. Much love to this guy, it is a tough cancer to deal with.

[@eightbo]

Such a good idea from Aaron! MASSIVE value in this type of interview; more please!

[@DONALD1951]

Nice guy...way too young to get sick...best of luck to you. Thanks Aaron for showing real concern and giving us some info other than stock trading.

[@recursiveset]

This it the type of interview a newbie trader needs to listen to!!!

[@nsanenaren]

Always look forward to your new interviews, these are real gems.

[@stanuel]

Keep the great content coming

[@AustinSilverFX]

Looking forward to more videos like this Aaron, thank you!!

[@ToyLatrine]

Very interesting. I've been thinking about getting into trading on and off for years and listening to this guy kinda has me excited. Just gotta make the plunge!

[@c7ulm]

Really good to hear a new trader's story, brings it back down to earth a bit more attainable. Keep it the good work man.

[@mypointofblue5260]

Thanks for sharing your experience! I'm about a month into studying the very basics of investing\trading, with a direct interest in active trading. Very insightful!

[@XSAoRAD]

Listened to this episode for the 3rd time, would be keen on a follow-up

[@Essays4College]

Oh I love this!

[@Quantumfuturestrader]

Because you are on your own it is imperative to have a great environment. Plants music, good light maybe an exercise bike.. what ever. Then yes your monitors desk chair. Good interview. On a side note i would never give a broker more than 10k in an account. It's more than enough. Trade small it accumulates

[@melbournian100]

What an interesting and inspiring interview. Josh's story is somewhat similar to mine. I am day trading US stocks partime and worked full time as psychiatry nurse in one of public hospital in Melbourne. Hopefully in near future I will transition to full-time trading.

[@ricardoklestorny6944]

Wow, me too!

[@kngu32]

What is your trading style? Im also based in Melb trading the US market.

[@melbournian100]

@@kngu32 I don't use specific style, I trade depends on the market trend. I buy deep in the open and scalp a lot

So much respect for him

[@CigRacing]

Excellent - thanks!

[@elgerardoedwardio2498]

HI, great interview, this is a great idea to get in some traders who are starting out or just becoming established. If you could ever secure an interview with Dan from 'The Chart Guys' that would be AMAZING. Regardless, keep up the good work 😎👍🧡

[@handyrams4664]

Thanks for the content!

[@patrickmcfly3264]

Hey Aaron, you need to encourage Josh to start his own KZbin Show! It will grow your legacy!

[@patrickmcfly3264]

because of Josh, I liked and subscribed!

[@chris.t9523]

Great interview man

[@craigmoore9194]

A great interview Aaron. Keep it up!

[@tigger6602]

Great Interview! Where can I specifically find the other "New traders" interviews? Thanks :)

[@isthisnecessary11]

Best one yet

[@xxpjhxx]

I think Josh should become interviewer ;)

[@MelbourneShorts11]

Awesome stuff.

[@DONALD1951]

Is everyone a “ daytrader”. Or can you make some trades a week apart or so as the price changes.. Do most of you get in and out in a day?

[@aylo3882]

you can also make money trading the longer timeframes no problem

[@maxlucke158]

i think these terms arent that strict ... its just to put people in some kind off category to name these groups of people easier ^^

[@duanejackson6718]

Yes you can take longer term positions, it's called "swing trading". That's what I do, I take positions and hold them for several days and some times a month. Depends on the trend.

[@mostafamohammed3275]

We need an EP with Brian beamish Aaron plz

[@melbournian100]

Stock trading brokers in australia they're charging too much. US stock brokers are charging way... way cheap. I pay $5 per trade flat rate. I tried IG to trade CFD they are charging ridiculous amount of money. Anyway US brokers are way better than local once.

[@ricardoklestorny6944]

Check out Interactive Brokers

[@AmerKhalid]

Loved this interview

[@fishpiana890]

Tightttttttt

[@adamtownsend7829]

I’m on the fence with order flow..I’ve heard several 20 plus year traders say watching time and sales and level 2 is completely pointless due to dark pool orders but then a ton of people say it made a difference in their trading. I guess it depends on the trader..

[@Corey-pd3mi]

How can time and sales be pointless, it's a realtime record of actual trades. Agreed, just level 2 can be misleading due to spoofing but that's mainly in futures and extremely liquid markets. There are many markets where that type of activity is not worth their time.

[@ionluv]

I wonder how he is doing today.

[@DONALD1951]

What equipment are you referring to? Any particular program...do you watch individual stocks on each screen? Thanks

[@restbythebeach]

Any way to get English subtitles?

[@moakm9626]

Guys I'm a newbie,Do you think Pro Traders watch trading KZbin content ?

[@arnavrohan3623]

I think they do... btw, I would encourage you choose a Platform even if you are new to Forex, there are beginner friendly platforms like trade earn (over 10 millions users) that offer you an interesting opportunity to follow the best traders and copy their transactions.

[@aylo3882]

they sure do ..if you are serious about it you are also serious about getting better

[@arnavrohan3623]

drop your mail so we can converse better okay

[@faicheng3751]

I do trades on the platform from Asia, I didn't want to write the review until I make my first withdrawal, because of it the most important for the work with the broker. But now the money is accepted to my Neteller e-wallet, and I can definitely say, that it's safe to work with Trade earn platform, Regarding the rest of the moments also no problems either with deals - execution or with commissions - everything works smoothly

[@handyrams4664]

Is the audio on this public domain for live stream or do I need permission to use?

[@feipan3227]

Motivation is save tax

[@faicheng3751]

With minimal risk involved I get to profit over 250% of my income tax each time I invest on the trade earn platform through my account manager Stewart fraser.

[@sagargoradia2854]

Sorry this question is off topic but what is the reason for his cancer the doc said some extreme ... Can u help with that ??

[@chop00011]

@Cheryl Brown I contacted heather to see if she could tell me why I had cancer but she didn't know.. what a letdown :'(

[@Shawk95]

Does Josh use any indicators? If yes, which ones? How much in capital gains tax has he paid?

[@melbournian100]

From my experience using indicators is wasting time, as long as as you master Price action, volume and risk management. You can do very well. If you want use one VWAP is better indicator than any of the indicators. Enshe Allah.

[@Shawk95]

@@melbournian100 I agree fully. However, I use EMAs but don't see any utility in using VWAP.

[@melbournian100]

@@Shawk95 My advice don't focus on indicators. You can trade with out indicators successfully and can make decent income. That is what I do.

[@Shawk95]

@@melbournian100 Your advise is well taken. I do focus on price action and keep my exposure small. I use 5 EMAs and multiple time-frames to determine and go with the direction of the market.
