Learn How to Become a Better Day Trader
In no way is day trading stocks easy. That said, as a beginner trader, you can learn from the mistakes of others and save a lot of money. At Investors Underground, we teach traders to refine their trading strategies and maximize their potential to make money in the stock market. While this is not a science, we rely on certain principles to add more structure to the seemingly chaotic markets.
Technical Analysis and Chart Reading
We utilize pattern recognition strategies to create high probability trading opportunities. By analyzing stock charts and market data, we can take the emotion out of day trading and increase our odds of making money in the markets. These concepts are discussed in-depth in our educational trading courses.

Basically, every trader who watched this kind of video knows these things. It's not about hearing or reading them. It's about letting them be ingrained into your mindset by repetition.

[@youcefassou1592]

You can't say to someone you are drunk as he doesn't think so , he has to experience the hangover to realise the action done. Sometimes only sometimes I think we are gamblers with different name called Traders😅

1. Bet on winning set ups. 2. Don't play on Boredom Trades. 3.Never add to losing trade (it's going against you for a reason) 4.Take profits on winning trades. (Partial atleast) 5.Always trade with free and clear mind. 6.Dont revenge trade (when you feel obligated to make money) 7. Cut losses

[@mamor8292]

[@ChrisWill]

As a camera operator I can say that yes, going back and forth isn't as easy as babysitting a locked shot. If I'm directing this kind of thing and the presenter won't stay still I would just tell the CamOp to frame head-to-toe because moving back and forth is distracting, when really, it's what they're saying that's important, less the picture. You think this is crazy but imagine shooting sports!

[@Princeofpeace101]

[@itsyounmesweetie]

Not as bad as ice skating, but yes it's annoying as a camera person, (as I have done, along with follow spot.) And offen the speaker thinks it's motivational to move so much but their nervous pacing is really just distracting!

This is what they get paid to do. I feel no sorrows lol being annoyed is part of the job.

Study your loss much more than technical analysis. Then ,Apply mathematical rule to money management for tackling loss. Key to success.

[@zaabknow]

Can you elaborate more bro...

[@corporateraider9766]

Trust me traders, if one loss is enough to blow up weeks or months of your wins then your risk management is shittier than Bixby

[@VenkatRamakrishnan5]

any idea to maintain risk management

[@pavanKumar-nb6xk]

Have a strict stop loss and once hit close the system , assess how much you can risk/ trade. Afford to risk only the capital which you can afford to lose. Plan only 1 percent risk per trade of your capital, set your position sizing based on this

Steven ZJ this will solve your issue.... When your stop loss is triggered close A PORTION of your position... Example: Your long 100 shares...it hits your stop loss close 75-80 shares and leave the rest From here you will need to track how many trades ACTUALLY go for you when you believe the thoughts you just mentioned.. Maybe you find out that only 30% of your trades actually go into profit and 70% of your trades continues losing money and stopping it out was the best decision It's important to have proof ..not just feelings or it seems like...

It seems so easy when you hear it. Follow rules. Never deviate, etc... Why can't I just follow the rules!? I am getting better. I am learning to judge my trading day not on profits but on how closely I followed my rules, no matter the outcome.

[@khirshad]

[@seancullen99]

This is one of the most succinct and useful trading videos I've seen yet. To sumarize: 1. Only trade your max confident set-ups and be prepared to wait days/weeks for them (ie cut out the boredom trades). Because you're trading less, you can increase the size. 2. Cut losses fast 3. Scale out of your profitable trades in increments (I like to do this using chart levels and % gains) 4. Never revenge trade or trade if you are emotionally off kilter that day or seriously lacking sleep

"Mental stops" is a very slippery slope

[@YovanNoel]

Not necessarily - stop limit orders aren't always filled. Also - scalp trades can happen so quickly that you don't have time to create a stop order. Part of trader development is learning to robustly set and follow risk management. Mental stops depend on a traders' discipline.

[@gidalyahbrons5780]

@@YovanNoel That's what bracket orders are for. Stop orders are filled immediately at the best price upon being hit, so while there is slippage risk it's still the most solid protection you can have. Scalping with mental stops seems dangerous to me no matter how disciplined you are price moves really fast, like you said.

I really needed to hear this after today. For the past 2 weeks, I’ve given myself new rules that strictly cut losses and I only entered a few, but good positions w big money behind them and saw way more success than my previous strategy. Of course I’m really stubborn when cutting loss and I know I can get emotional and lost a weeks worth of trading w 5 bad trades today and yesterday bc I refused to cut loss and put a stop loss on my positions bc I refused to believe I was going to be wrong after a successful streak. Following your rules is so hard to get right, it’s tough to develop discipline and maintain it. But I definitely see the upsides in it. We’re trading to become a better trader, not to just make money. Money just comes along with it. This talk was awesome, hit everything I needed and was looking to hear.

[@af4396]

I did a similar thing, had one day that wiped out a week of trading. Sad thing is, I recovered 90% of my losses on that same day, but then went in to try to get green again. Shouldn't have done that...

[@arnelarson2849]

Experienced traders who sincerely care about teaching, as opposed to boasting and showing off, will emphasize the percentage win and loss and not the dollar amount. Everyone has different account balances and risk tolerances. A $5,000 loss might be career ending for a small trader, and is pocket change for someone else. However, if they are training their followers to look at %, they will be more focused on the process, and not the money.

[@TheRightMedia]

Wow. 3 minutes in, and the most important message here is that you learn from your losses. You don't learn from your wins. There's a saying on Wall Street. "Don't confuse brains with a bull market". And it was Friedrich Nietzsche who said he never learned anything from those who showed him good will. He learned from those who showed him ill-will. It carves away dead wood the SAME way that losses serve to make a more ideal trading strategy. For beginning traders, THAT is why it's important to stick to a plan. If you stick to it and it doesn't pan out, then you can adjust it. If you DON'T stick to your plan and it fails, you have pretty much nothing to point to for the loss and it remains lost in vain.
