Some of the most retarded things I've seen in trading:
1. I streamed all my trades from Jan 2024 till ~Aug 2025 my entire run from 30K to multi 8 figs on my mentor's discord, an unprofitable trader who watched everyday stayed unprofitable trading their own style for majority of it.
2. A trader spent a decade trading everyday for multiple tens of thousands of hours and still remains unprofitable. I found him interesting and we were on dms for awhile. I was honestly trying to learn from him. Later on I suceed heavily and hes never once asked me for help even tho I got him sponsored by my rich friend to trade with more funds.
3. I recently tutored my good friend's friend for two sessions as a favor as they were interested in starting trading. That person had a bunch of things they wanted to explore but I tried to help them focus on a few ideas. It was clear they wanted to explore their own style and I was left on read (thank god).
4. At the beginning I was in dms of 3 ex pro players daily about trading. I reached out to all of them about trading with me more closely. They all rejected or wasn't too interested at the time even though I was starting to find sucess. Most haven't reached out to me since or took like 1.5 years to do so when its too late.
And many more...
All these retards wanted to "be themselves" and "find their own way." They don't want to admit they are heading the wrong path and they don't want to ask for help untill its giga undeniable (too late).
Honestly this is probably just normal human (retard) behaviour.
And they think I am eGomAXxing because of how I speak.
Realistically more real and humble than any negative trader.
The first real hope I found in trading when I first started was from going through a paid discord looking at how people talk and msging the people I considered the smartest to teach me something. Most rejected and didn't offer much but @gabriel__daher who was profitable at the time helped me and taught me some shit.
Reached out eventually and turned out he was no longer profitable. I taught him some shit for a few hours and dropped him off in another discord with some profitable traders as repayment for his kindness. Though basically I just left him a new starting point. He msged every fucking profitable trader there endlessly till he found a mentor. And now hes BALLIng.
Honestly almost every 8 fig trader I know has found their initial sucess through some mentorship or from working together with other traders and developing together.
I've personally learnt a lot from a lot of different traders throughout. But how do you get help from other traders?
At the end of the day its all about give and take.
Surprisingly people nowadays don't quite understand that.
Instead they are entitled and demand help. They annoy you and threaten you instead. Their idea is if they are terrible to someone they will get help from them eventually.
Bitch I rather burn all my fucking money than help you.
It's honestly just a sense of pride and honor as well. As a taker you need to know your place and to at least try to give back or at least feel in debted to try to help them out later.
Some people don't mind teaching a good guy who has potential and willing to work hard. Maybe try to be funny? Make them feel good for helping you.
The people who leech more than they give will be cut out eventually or just receive less.
For me how I got to learn from traders was by sharing to them than they did to me. Or if anyone ever shared something with me thats +ev first I would tax myself to give something back of value. But if those people take it for granted then thats that.
As an example some people taught me some shit first like @irigstocks or Zero and I was too bad to help them back but now I have returned the favor to help them out of being WASHED AND TRASH AS FUCK.
And of course my mentor who I have no idea where I would be now without him. But also without me I think he would be at 1/3 as well.
Give and pay your debts. I still have some left to pay.
(was gonna write something but im hungry peace)

There's a major risk that your hotkeys will be completely lost or rolled back randomly.
This has happened to me before and several other traders over the last few years. It happened to one of my friends yesterday so I decided to make a post.
I have the fix here:
1. Go to Hotkey menu and look for "browse" on the bottom right-hand corner
2. Open that and it will bring up your hotkey file folder
3. Find your current Hotkey file, by default it will be "hotkey.htk"
4. Rename the file to something else like "HotkeyBackup2025.htk" or whatever
5. Copy that same hotkey and paste it back in, rename it to "hotkey.htk"
6. Go back to Hotkey menu and select browse, make sure to select hotkey.htk so it loads as your default
-- Details --
The issue is that at some point the file stops being modified properly, it will change so you won't notice it day to day but if your file says something like "date modified 9/3/2022 11:33 PM" (see screenshot) then there is a major risk that your keys will be reset years at RANDOM.
That OLD file will continue to "update" when you change it but will continue to say "date modified" as the OLD date, meaning there is always a risk you rollback entirely for no apparent reason.
Even if you're new to DAS and only have a few weeks or months, it has still impacted traders by rolling back all of that progress.
I would suggest to check this file and see that it is modified after each change, you should see the last modified date and time change.
Periodically make backups to your file if you make any major hotkeys that will be a bitch to recover. Basically whenever the modifications stop recording on the file explorer, you need to update your default hotkey to a new version and backup the one you're using.
Good luck! I hope that this saves many of you before you get your stuff deleted.

Having kids really does make life better. I’ve made and lost lots of money over the years and nothing compares to seeing them succeed. My daughter made the gymnastics team at 6 years old and my son just got his first stripe in Jiu Jitsu at 4. That said I was terrified at first, but you adjust over time. Go out and create some babies!

The most satisfying part of my day is when I check the execution data and see that I kept my losses small.
This is what I think is the “falling in love” with the process aspect of trading.
All I want is daily, monthly and career-wide consistency, the money is secondary.
You have to be able to determine which wins are losses and which losses are wins.
It’s not enough to be purely happy/driven/inspired/content with $ results, under the hood you have to know you’ve traded well.
I would never be proud of a trade where I broke every rule in the book, even if it was a career trade.
