Ok. Good information. But I want to trade. How do I begin? How do I get started. Great question. Some people want to invest in the stock market. Some people want to day trade. Some people want to swing trade in the stock market. How do you begin?
I discuss that in this video . . .
NOTE: This is not an investment or trading recommendation. The losses in trading can be very real, and depending on the investment vehicle, can exceed your initial investment. I am not a licensed trading or investment adviser, or financial planner. But I do have 13 years of experience in trading and investing in these markets. The Challenge accounts are run for the education of other traders who should make their own decisions based off their own research and risk tolerance

Hey Dan, it’s good to hear the war stories man…good judgement comes from experience….and experience comes from bad judgement, lol. Some brokers offer the ability to make mock trades with play money…do you think there is any value in that?
Thanks Airelon

No, you’re not smoking crack at all. Absolutely there is. Any CPA should offer services to have your accounts audited.

Wow… I thought I was crazy pushing close to $1000! Damn…
I decided early on that the ones that were going to be any useful at all were the ones that did not have hype and/or came from Dr. Van K. Tharp. Then I also got myself a mentor and he me very much!

Dan,
I think I heard you say in one of your vids that there is a way for someone to “AUDIT” your trading account like if they don’t believe you are making money trading.
Some of my family and friends just find it hard to believe that someone can make money trading so I was thinking if there is a company or group of accountants that can do 3rd party independent review/audit of the trading activity so that they believe. Is there something like that or am I smoking crack?! lol

Do this.
Google “airelon economic spin network” and listen to the podcast.
If after listening to that podcast you can even begin to keep up and even understand what I’m talking about? If by “retard” – you mean an IQ of 173? Then yes, I guess you’re right and I’m a retard.
Then, if you want to possibly begin to understand how to make money, you can write me, address me as either “Sir” or “Mr. Shy”, and then, perhaps, I would consider unblocking you kid.

Once you get this trading bug it grips you with all your heart and soul, cant wait to go in full time now, should be next couple of months as my IT Entrpreneurship winds down to make way for a new life. Good luck people You cannot come into trading half heartedly coz you need balls of steel to carry you through the losing streak

Great vid.
Im into trading for three years. ONLY NOW do I believe after losing all that time several tens of thousands of pounds do I now believe Im just about able to stick to my plan and stop over trading. Its such a difficult thing to do. the battle is with yourself let lose in a huge playground & without doubt EVERYONE losses money. The typical cost is about 20-60K cost. Larry Williams strategy is perfect for me! hes the one I best match with, stopped me overtrading! Enter wisely peeps
Minus the joint …
Minus the joint venture it’s pretty much my story, only mines a step lower – I thought that being on top of the world of warcraft auction house markets would give me the understanding of price action I needed to trade real money. Too bad you can only get so far only knowing what supply/resistance is, managed throw out 4-5k so far for a 12 month incredibly expensive/humbling educating experience making every DO NOT mistake in the book. Wish I’d watched your video first haha

It’s a viable way of trading, but not investing (since there is no cash flow generation from wealth creation principles). But as with all trades, it has to have defined entrance and exits.

I wont invest in stocks in bonds, too risky for me. I prefer investing in precious metals and land, things with an actual underlined value. What are your thoughts on precious metal investing?

Absolutely. In fact, I think I have a video on that later on in this series, regarding “paper trading” or “demo trading”. I think ThinkorSwim has the best platform for demo-trading … at least of the platforms I’ve seen.
