@NWM667 What's your favorite confluence to confirm? I like to see the M portion going into some sort of HTF imbalance, sweep, or SMT.

I've been a fan my entire life. Bidwell has to go. You ran Bruce Arians out of town because he didn't win a SB, you can't hire a coaching staff to save your life, we suck in the draft, our facilities are trash, employee fiasco(DUI, sexual harrassment), FA's don't care to come to one of the best places to live, we get suckered into paying Kyler. Time to sell Michael.

@JebraFaushay Lol it's so funny that as a man if you simply control your urges and give up "p*ssy" they literally have nothing left to hold over you, and they know it.

@L2WTrades Whether the story is true or not, it's the truth.
English

sat next to a 20 year old guy on a plane who casually mentioned he made $4.5 million last year
didn't look rich
t-shirt
jeans
beat up backpack
i asked what he did
"i trade futures"
"full time?"
"yeah, about 3 hours a day"
"$4.5 million in 3 hours a day?"
"well, it's not really about hours, it's about decisions. i probably make 10-15 decisions per month that matter. the rest is just waiting"
"what do you mean?"
"most people think trading is constant action. it's not. it's 99% waiting for your setup, 1% executing. that's why most people fail. they can't handle doing nothing"
he pulled out his laptop
showed me his calendar
90% of trading days marked: "NO TRADE"
"this is march, see? 31 days. i traded 7 times. made $380k that month"
"7 trades made $380k?"
"yeah, because they were the RIGHT 7 trades. everyone else took 200 trades that month and lost money because they were WRONG trades. quality over quantity"
"how do you know which 7 to take?"
"i don't trade unless i'd bet my house on it"
"what?"
"every trade, i ask myself: would i bet my house on this setup? if the answer is no, i don't trade. most setups? the answer is no. but 7 times this month, the answer was YES"
he kept talking:
"the biggest mistake retail traders make is thinking they need to trade every day. you don't. you need to trade WHEN YOUR SETUP APPEARS. some months that's 15 times. some months that's 3 times"
"what about consistency?"
"consistency isn't daily trading. consistency is ONLY taking your setup. if your setup appears once a week, you trade once a week. if it appears 5 times in a day, you trade 5 times that day. the market doesn't care about your need for action"
"but i feel like i'm wasting time if i'm not trading"
"that's employee mindset. you think time = money. it doesn't. correct decisions = money. i make more doing nothing 24 days a month than you make forcing trades every single day"
he was right
i was trading out of BOREDOM
not opportunity
i tested this for 90 days:
BEFORE "house bet" filter:
- 156 trades
- 41% win rate
- -$3,800
AFTER "house bet" filter:
- 11 trades
- 73% win rate
- +$14,200
11 trades in 90 days
because i stopped trading
and started WAITING
the plane guy was right:
"most traders are addicted to action. they need to DO something. that's why they lose. the real money is in doing NOTHING until the perfect setup appears. but doing nothing feels like you're not working, so people force trades"
"how do you handle the boredom?"
"i have a life outside trading. i go to the gym. i read. i travel. trading is 3 hours a day MAX. the other 21 hours i'm living. you guys are staring at charts 12 hours a day hoping something happens. that's not trading. that's gambling addiction"
he closed his laptop
"here's the secret: the less you trade, the more you make. i know guys trading 500 times a month making $0. i trade 15 times a month making $400k. the difference? i'm SELECTIVE. they're ACTIVE. market rewards selectivity, punishes activity"
flight landed
he gave me his card
"if you want to make real money trading, stop trying to trade every day. start waiting for YOUR setup only. 90% of trading is waiting. 10% is executing. master the waiting and you'll make more money doing nothing than everyone else makes doing everything"
i never saw him again
but i think about that conversation every single day
the math is simple:
you're not paid by the trade
you're paid by the CORRECT trade
taking 200 trades with 40% accuracy = -$5k
taking 20 trades with 70% accuracy = +$50k
same account
different approach
completely different outcome
most of you are over-trading
thinking activity = profit
it doesn't
selectivity = profit
the traders making $500k+/year
they trade LESS than you
not more
they're better at WAITING
not better at TRADING
master the wait
make the money
English

Yeah but your income is not already sourced from tax dollars is the point lol. A police officer’s salary literally comes from taxes already. All dollars created essentially end back up in the governments hands until they just print more, devaluing the currency. $1 is printed, how many times is that single dollar taxed over its existence. When you understand that, you’ll understand the point. Here’s another one for you.. if the government can only create new money by borrowing from the privately owned Federal reserve on interest, where does the money come to pay back that interest? It simply doesn’t and will never exist.
English

@BryanFutures @2a4x4Accountant @redpillb0t They pay taxes on their wages like everyone else. It’s not taxed money, it’s public services funded by tax revenue.
The restaurant brings that money in as revenue, not profit, so no they do not “pay taxes on that same money.”
English

I’ll accept I’m retarded if you can explain why when a dollar is printed it is taxed more than once for the same purpose. Example. $1 is paid to me, I then pay taxes on that dollar, a portion goes to state taxes, those dollars are used to pay police officers who then pay the same income tax on said dollar. I’m saying income tax for tax funded jobs is retarded.
English

@BryanFutures @JeremyTreadway @Holt_LFC @redpillb0t You're all retarded. The first 16 seconds is patently false. I'm not getting into it with a bunch of retards. Trust me, I get the premise, but she does a piss poor job of explaining it.
English

@JeremyTreadway @Holt_LFC @2a4x4Accountant @redpillb0t Their salaries literally come from taxes and then they turn around and pay taxes on it lol come on man. Fine, pay federal taxes, but its literally state tax money that funds their salaries.
English

@BryanFutures @Holt_LFC @2a4x4Accountant @redpillb0t because the free market isn’t truly free if comparable salaries and wages get preferential treatment depending on your career. you’re also saying “taxes on wages” like the federal government is the one paying for firefighters and police, when they’re not
English

@Holt_LFC @2a4x4Accountant @redpillb0t Taxes on wages that come from tax dollars, how many times is the same dollar taxed is the point. It's sort of not "irrelevant" and the reason the government keeps devaluing our currency through inflation and taxation.
English

@BryanFutures @2a4x4Accountant @redpillb0t They are paying taxes on wages, it is irrelevant where the money comes from.
If I just hand you $500 as a gift you do not pay tax on that. Shit I could gift you $1,000,000 and you wouldn’t owe a penny of tax on it.
English

@redpillb0t Love ya redpillbot, but as an accountant, this ain't the way it works. Carry on. 🤓

@AZCardinals All I want for Xmas is Bidwell to sell the team to someone who can make us good. Please, you can be a billionaire man. Just let us have a real owner who doesn't wipe out endzone seats for Cabanas.

@saylordocs Tell me you know nothing about the importance of decentralization without telling me. Not one mention that these "tokens" are what secure and allow you to use a decentralized network 🤦♂️

@KINGKLC001 Because losing your ass is part of the journey. Will the fire forge you, or will it destroy you?

You folks realize they’re just telling you this so they can roll out UBI to American citizens as a way to get people onto CBDC’s and track every purchase with programmable money, right?
*If you decide to comment, please ensure you know the difference between “digital” money and “programmable” money.*
The government will pitch this as “oh look, we stopped all the fraud and now Americans will benefit with all this new found money that we will track/program.” People will celebrate this new money given to citizens as they’re being led right into unfathomable control.

On my first day @USDA, we told every state to send us their SNAP data so we could make sure illegal immigrants aren’t getting benefits meant for American families. 29 states stepped up. 21 blue states refused — and two SUED US FOR ASKING! 🤦🏻♀️
And guess what? In just the states that cooperated, we’ve already uncovered massive fraud.
The Democrat Party has turned its back on working Americans and built its entire strategy around protecting illegal aliens. They know if the handouts stop, those illegals will go back home, and Democrats will lose 20+ seats after the next census.
There’s a new sheriff in town. @POTUS will not tolerate waste, fraud, or abuse while hardworking Americans go hungry.
English

@Marresecira Don’t hop strategies. Stick to 1-2 strategies that have 60-70% accuracy and follow them religiously. Target 3:1
Be okay with not taking a trade every day.
Don’t revenge trade.
English

@joseftrades The crazy part about this post, although it’s one of the best posts I’ve read about the trader’s journey.. Until you’ve truly lived every stage, every break down, this post can’t fully be appreciated, but this is 💯
English

I don’t know who needs to hear this…
but TRADING IS HARD.
Not “oh it takes a few months to learn” hard.
I mean soul-testing, mentally exhausting, break-you-before-you-build-you kind of hard.
You’ll wake up confident and go to bed questioning your life choices.
You’ll stare at charts for hours, take one bad trade, and feel like you’ve learned nothing.
You’ll swear you’re done - and somehow, you’ll still show up the next morning.
Everyone loves to post profits.
But no one talks about what it feels like to take 3 losses in a row and still have to show up with composure and discipline the next day.
Not living off affiliates.
Not living off subscriptions.
Trading as a main income - that‘s hard.
You carry pressure every single day.
The pressure to perform.
To stay patient when nothing’s setting up.
To trust your edge when everything inside you screams to cut early.
You start realizing it’s not just about the charts - it’s about managing yourself.
Your ego.
Your impulses.
Your emotions.
That’s what makes trading different from anything else in the world.
Because when you sit down every day and face uncertainty - with no boss, no paycheck, and no guarantees - you’re forced to grow as a person, or the market will break you.
I respect the real traders…
the ones who don’t fake wins,
who admit when they struggle,
who stay in the game when it would be easier to quit.
Because if you’ve ever truly been down bad, and still chose to sit back at your desk, review your plan, and execute again - you’ve already done what most can’t.
Trading will humble you before it ever rewards you.
It’ll test your patience, your mindset, your belief in yourself.
But once you’ve survived the pain, once you’ve learned to stay calm in chaos, that’s when you start to see what this game is really about.
It’s not about flexing wins.
It’s not about catching every move.
It’s about becoming the version of yourself who’s disciplined enough to survive long enough to win.
That’s trading.
And if you can handle that, you can handle anything.
English

I think Props just need to actually find traders to actually copy and the business model can thrive. It’s these firms that just pay out from eval fees that aren’t actually copying profitable traders. Eval fees are a fine model, but copying truly disciplined traders is the only way to stay in business.
English

Prop firms are dying.
No one is buying courses anymore.
No one wants to pay monthly fees anymore.
No one wants to invest anymore.
People are in debt.
Suicides are increasing more and more.
But your favorite guru sells you a different narrative, the government gives you different data, and the TV and news give you different data.
It’s only just beginning.
English

Here's the thing about PropFirms...
They are great schools. They teach you that in order to become successful at trading you need a system. When you have a $50,000 account, you don't. You have a $2,000 account because that's the DD. Stick to your system and ONLY take trades that fit your system with a 2:1 or 3:1 RR for 60 days straight and watch what happens. @TopOneFutures @Topstep @ApexTradeFund @TakeProfitLLC
