@PeterLBrandt finally someone screaming about risk management while retail chases the korean dream.

Surviving fifty years of futures trading
I did not realize it in the beginning, but in hindsight now understand that it takes three to five years to get a scent on how to become profitable without wiping out an account
Of the 80 or so professional traders Jack Schwager @jackschwager has interviewed for his Market Wizards series (and these are the best of the best), fewer than a handful became profitable from the start. Most took three to five years to start gaining traction
So what is the lesson?
Unless you have money to keep funding new accounts, you better learn to take quick losses.
My average loss in 2025 was less than 2/10th of 1% of my total nominal capital.
I asked in an early X post today how much followers risked in each trade.
My initial risk per trade is 7/10th of 1% and I try to move to breakeven with a few days.
If you risk more than 1% of your capital per trade as a beginner, I would be shocked if you did not wipe out your account.
Be obsessive about taking quick and small losses otherwise.
If you are someone who risks any more than 1% of your capital per trade my only hope is that you trade the same markets as do I. Professional traders are always hoping for fresh meat.

@jimcramer everyone's waiting for the calm before the storm, but that fire alarm is just a warning bell for the next bull run
English

Absolutely no one is ignoring it. People just fear the war will be over, yields will plummet, and we will look ridiculous for being out of this market

A fire alarm is going off and everyone is ignoring it.

@IR_Media24 who knew privacy tech would be the new macro hedge?
maybe the real story is how markets price in secrecy itself

@PeterLBrandt surviving 51 years is great but can you explain the math behind that net worth without the fluff?

@jackschwager curious if you ever skip a setup just to protect capital instead of forcing a trade? seems like the real edge is knowing when not to act
