In episode 94 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Gino Topini, a Forex, stocks & crypto-currency trader based in London, UK. This man is one of the smartest traders I've met. Gino has what I'd call a master drive to speed up his success in trading and he does it the right way. While I met him at the China Forex Expo in Shenzhen, I understood that Gino has taken sort of the "smart way to successful trading", which is very uncommon to start with. Starting to trade in 2007, he decided to go on his own in his trading Forex trading journey, and therefore spent more time studying and practicing his craft in the market on a daily basis. Gino is also the co-ower of a business named Mj Web Studio LTD, which specializes in SEO, copywriting and web development. That is an excellent example of creating multiple streams of income and not putting all your eggs in one basket (one of Gino's advice). Throughout this interview, we went together for the basic of trading that the trader so often tends to forget. Gino shares his personal ways of trading currencies, how he came up with winning trading strategies and some deep knowledge of crypto-currencies, mainly Bitcoins, as nowadays the market seem to offer a great opportunity for profit.

In episode 93 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Stacey Burke, a Forex trader who has learned about trading the hard way while blowing up some small accounts and making all the mistakes most losing traders make.  Through that process, however, he has able to identify where the real problems were in his trading and how he could finally turn the corner to become one of the few profitable traders. Coming from a sporting background in ice hockey and Ironman triathlon, hard work and a competitive nature are some of the attributes he believes are necessary to succeed in Forex trading. Stacey gives credit to other great traders for his success. Brent Penfold's advice on being "the best loser", but he also implemented things in his daily routine to help him continually keep getting better at the process of trading.

In episode 92 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Kiana Danial a trader with a special emphasis on building her portfolio over time. She is helping people grow their wealth by investing. Here it's not a matter of getting rich quickly. Instead, Kiana looks at the market from a long-term perspective and that's how she saw most of her success in trading. What's most interesting about Kiana's trading style, however, is that she is still very involved in the market. She usually knows what's going on and what it's best to look at. Kiana confirms the idea that successful trading isn't a full-size-fits-all activity. You cannot expect to succeed by copying other people.

In episode 91 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Mike Tedeschi, a day and swing trader running a portfolio as well as a trading chatroom. At the time of the interview, he has been trading for himself for over 6 years. Mike looks at the investment world through a contrarian lens. By going against the herd, he positions himself to achieve the largest possible returns in the quickest time frame with the least amount of risk. One of the topics we touch on is the need for a trading plan. Mike, like me, has also been developing a trading playbook that contains multiple trading strategies he uses on a daily basis based on how the market moves. We also touched on the topic of trading alerts. As the main takeaway, you can make money in the market without being involved in the market at all times. There are times when the market isn't producing anything worth trading and that is where you need to be able to step away. There are absolutely no reasons to go in the market when there are no trades.

Several months ago, I stopped using my favorite charting platform - Meta Trader 4 at the time - to do all my technical analysis on TradingView. After being asked on several occasions, I thought it was time for me to come up with a TradingView review and to discuss the things I like and don't like about the online charting platform. What Is TradingView? To start with, I just want to ensure I eliminate the confusion about what TradingView is and isn't. In short, it's an online portal with charts...but it doesn't stop there. TradingView is an entire social/trader's network where anyone can publish a trade idea. For some notable people to follow (if you have any recommendations, let me know!): Akil Stokes - https://www.tradingview.com/u/Akil_Stokes/ Jason Graystone - https://www.tradingview.com/u/J_Graystone/ Etienne Crete (yeah, that's me) - https://www.tradingview.com/u/EtienneCrete1/ The first thing I must point out is that TradingView is accessible pretty much anywhere (by that I mean it isn't blocked in China, and you can access it even from a mobile device). 3 Reasons To Use TradingView Ability To Draw Anything On Any Chart I'm a really visual person, and I felt kind of limited by the idea that I could only draw horizontal/vertical lines in Meta Trader 4. I know there are a couple of different shapes and other tools in Meta Trader, but TradingView is way ahead. Whenever I want to explain something to someone or draw for my own reference (where I think the price will go), I take the pen inside TradingView to draw freely. Not only that but literally all the trading tools you could ever think of placing on your chart are there. Not that I'm a fan of complicating things, but I know people who have complicated trading styles. Although it can be challenging to draw with a computer mouse, you end up getting used to it, and that allows you not to forget anything anymore. Ability To Split Your Screen Into Many Synced Up Charts Depending on your trading style, you might need to look at multiple time frames prior to entering a trade.  That can be a real pain! Often you need to click a button and switch back and forth between the time frames. Or, you can open up multiple charts in advance, in which case your drawings/indicators will only appear on one chart. TradingView makes looking at the timeframes much easier by allowing you to see multiple charts on the same screen. What's even better is that your drawings can be synced up on all charts if you choose to.  Then, whenever you look at various currency pairs from your watchlist, you can lock the timeframes you selected so that they remain the same whatever you look at.  That's probably my favorite thing in TradingView! But there's one more thing I want to mention...   Accountability By Publishing Your Trade Ideas Accountability is precious. I've personally seen traders significantly improved when they started sharing what they were doing with other traders.  Some experienced traders even go as far as sharing their stats every month with their wife or husband. That way they feel accountable to someone, and it pushed them to work harder. What's great is that, in the case you don't have anyone to keep you accountable, the online world becomes an amazing resource. TradingView has a social function through which you can publish trade ideas. Those ideas are images of potential trades based on your analysis. Publishing those trade ideas forces you to make sure that you respect the analysis part of your plan.  And the fact that TradingView is such a big platform makes it very likely that people will interact with your trade ideas, perhaps creating an opportunity for you to learn from other traders as well.   3 Reasons Not To Use TradingView You Have To Pay For Some Basics Features As TradingView offers some amazing features, a fraction of them is reserved for paid members. For instance, a screen with multiple charts will require you to purchase a Pro subscription.  For me, that's not much of a problem because I expect I'll need to pay if I want a very solid tool. However, it has to be mentioned as one of the reasons new traders may abstain from using TradingView. You'll Need To Have 2 Platforms At All Times TradingView by itself isn't a trading platform through which you can place trades. While it is true that TradingView associated with some brokers like Oanda and FXCM, in most cases you won't be able to enter your trades from the charting platform itself. That means you'll be required (pretty much all the time) to use your broker's platform in addition to TradingView. It can be a bit confusing at first, especially when you're used to doing everything with one platform. Charts Don't Always Sync Up One of the troubles I have seen on TradingView is that you never really know whether the drawings you made on your chart got saved. Sometimes, closing your browser too fast makes you lose all your recent analysis work.    TradingView Plans Right now, TradingView offers 4 plans with different advantages.  Although I am aware that these plans might change, here's a quick breakdown of what they include at the moment: Free: good for one chart at a time with indicators. Pro: great option to start and add a few more features to your experience (at $9.95/month) Pro Plus: pretty much all the features a trader could need and it's unlimited (that's the plan I'm on) Premium: includes a couple of fancy features such as SMS alerts   Is TradingView For You? For me, I think it became a must. When I travel, there's no way I'll run Meta Trader 4 on my Mac as it consumes way too much battery. Having a website I can easily access makes it easier to load a chart quickly and close it whenever I want. I can draw anything and share it with "anyone" (I include my trading journal in 'anyone'). However, if you're always trading at home or on a PC, TradingView might not mean the same thing. It's up to you to see whether you'll truly benefit from it - although I doubt you won't. You Turn... I hope this TradingView review has helped you understand what that tool was all about. I could go on and on talking about the things I like about the platform, but there are also other things not to like. That's why I need your help! Are you an active user of TradingView? What do you like/dislike about it? Comment below and we can chat! Disclosure: I am not paid by TradingView to write this post. I just love the tool :) This post may contain affiliate links.

Siam has a very interesting story of how he transitioned into trading and how he had to learn to trade the hard way. Today, however, Siam has used Forex trading as part of its other streams of income to become financially independent. His trading takes on from 5 to 10 minutes a day on average, which means that Siam has enough time to concentrate on other interests/passions/businesses.

Kunal Desai: Success & Growth Factors In Your Trading Career In episode 83 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Kunal Desai, a day trader by day and industry leading instructor by night. He is the Founder and Lead Instructor at Bulls on Wall Street and has helped thousands of traders reach their trading goals through his unique live trading courses since 2010. I enjoyed seeing how passionate Kunal was about trading and helping people. He inspired me to work even harder when he said: "if you want to teach, you must be willing to work harder than your students".  More About Kunal Kunal began trading stocks during the Dotcom Boom, experiencing several ups and downs while growing his account and his knowledge of how the market works. It didn’t take very long for him to realize he had a passion for trading, and that he was particularly drawn to the excitement and profit potential of day and swing trading. While he grew his skill set through experience and self-education, it was mentorship under Paul Singh that really helped Kunal recognize his strengths and weaknesses, and develop a trading system that fit his personality and goals.  After years spent trading and developing a winning trading system, Kunal founded Bulls on Wall Street to teach others how to take control of their financial destinies. It started with a chat room where Kunal could talk about the stocks he was trading and watching, and a series of blogs and videos to provide market analysis. The site grew from there, as Kunal began using his experiences as a trader and teacher to hold webinars and live trading course sessions. After years of trading and honing his system, Kunal created the Bulls Bootcamp, a comprehensive trading course to impart everything he’s learned as a trader and provide the mentorship that was so helpful to him as a new trader.  Today, Kunal is still trading and teaching. He’s spoken at the Trader and Investor Summit, Traders4ACause gala event, been featured in numerous podcasts, and covered in the Huffington Post, BroBible, and Inc.com. In 2015, he spoke alongside market luminaries such as Peter Brandt, Jack Schwager, and James Dalton. I'd love if you can take a few seconds to leave a review on iTunes or Stitcher.

Miguel Tiexiera: Trading Forex While You Travel Show notes: www.desiretotrade.com/miguel-tiexiera/ In episode 82 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Miguel Tiexiera, a Forex trend trader and active traveler who has spent years crafting his trading methodology allowing him to trade and travel the world at the same time. I brought Miguel on the show specifically because he has the knowledge of what is necessary to develop so you can trade and travel at the same time. This is also what I’ve been particularly working on in the past 2 months. More About Miguel I opened my first trading account in 1995 and with a few weeks of basic training, I thought I was ready to trade! Within a month I blew my trading account! Realizing my errors; no risk management, lack of knowledge… I still had a desire to succeed as a trader. I then enrolled in The Chartered Market Technician program. Over the next two years, I completed level I & II. During those two years, I didn’t trade as I had no capital! I spent many, many hours studying charts and the course material. Then in 1997, I got a job as a technical analyst on a forex desk with a bank and so began the next chapter in my trading career. I traded forex and interest rates over the next 12 years and in 2009 I left the bank to do some traveling. In August of 2014 while on a cycle trip from London to Lisbon I was doing 2 things that I really enjoy, traveling and trading the financial markets using a trend following approach and that is where the name “Traveling Trend Trader” comes from. I have since learned how to code trading systems and spend time doing research on new trading ideas, doing live broadcasts, writing blogs – all about trading of course and spending time in the DT community in between getting out on my bike and traveling.

In this Q&A episode, I discuss how someone can better trade with a full-time job. That involves knowing how to best manage your time and implementing a few things to make sure you remain effective. 2 Tips For Trading With A Full-Time Job Most people starting off in Forex trading don't have the chance to trade full-time from day #1. Tip #1: Establish A Solid Schedule And Block Off Time The first to trade while having a full-time job is to spend some time planning how you'll spend your time. I discuss how I block time off in my calendar constantly. That is very important for me to stay focused. Tip #2: Prepare, Trade, And Review Every Time While it can be easy to show up, trade, and leave, that is a sure way not to move forward. As a trader of any kind trading with a full-time job, you must combine 3 major activities. Even if you prepare or review for 5 minutes, that's still a good start! The advice shared in my Facebook Live Q&As are based on my own experience and the interviews I had with multiple successful traders on the Desire To Trade Podcast.

In this Q&A episode, I discuss the process of making your trading strategy better and I also do a review of my trading year. The Trading Year In Review It is very important for any trader to look back at the year that went by to evaluate things that went well and things that didn't go very well. Personally, I'm proud of the capital I've been able to collect in 2016 through a few investors. However, I'm not particularly happy with how I handled my July 2016 drawdown. On the positive side, I see this drawdown as a great learning opportunity. Making Your Trading Strategy Better Personally, every strategy I currently trade is composed of 4 parts: Market phase Support/Resistance areas Price action (including but not limited to candlesticks) Indicator All those factors, when combined, create confluence. Making your trading strategy better involves looking at the 4 parts mentioned above and adding criteria to limit yourself to trading higher quality trades. The advice shared in my Facebook Live Q&As are based on my own experience and the interviews I had with multiple successful traders on the Desire To Trade Podcast. Questions Answered: How can I improve my strategies? I trade with the 8 EMA and buy/sell when the price crosses it. What do you think of that? What's the best amount of leverage to use?     What is one thing you are going to implement after listening to this podcast? Leave a comment below, or join me in the Facebook group!

Michael Toma: Master In Risk Management & Futures Trader Episode 73 of the Desire To Trade Podcast is starting off the year strongly! I'm planning on bringing you the best trading-related podcast that gives results. Still, as part of the Holiday special, I'm interviewing for the second time Michael Toma. I selected guests that had made an impact on me throughout the year and Michael was definitely one of them. In short, Michael Toma is a futures trader and I consider him to be a master when it comes to risk management (although that's a wide topic) >> Listen to the first episode with Michael Toma I've had the chance to connect with him in person once and Michael always impresses me by the wisdom he has when it comes to the execution part of trading. As a futures trader, he understood that he didn't need to be active in every market to make money but that he did need to leave his trades run if he wanted to pay for his lifestyle. For this new year, I'd love if you can take a few seconds to leave a review on iTunes or Stitcher. Let me know honestly what you think of the podcast because the only way I can improve is through your reviews.   In This Episode, You'll Learn... A simple and clear definition of your role as a Forex trader. How to identify what you need to work on as a trader. Trading on-the-go and the importance of simplicity. How to use Market Profile in your trading (that's a really interesting part!) The places where Michael sees most traders fall short. Why it is essential (but weird) to scale up by increments when you trade. Michael and I share both of our experiences. The BEST advice Michael has to give in regards to 2017. That starts off the year really strong! And much more! What is one thing you are going to implement after listening to this podcast? Leave a comment below, or join me in the Facebook group!

Chris Claflin: Multiple Market Trader Episode 72 of the Desire To Trade Podcast is part of the Holiday special, during which I'm bringing back guests I've had previously on the podcast. I selected guests that had made an impact on me throughout the year. In this episode, I interview Chris Claflin, a multiple market trader, who is currently involved in futures and Forex. >> Listen to the first episode with Chris Claflin Chris started being more involved in the Forex market during the past few months. That makes him a multiple market trader. Throughout this interview, he shared his 5 keys to successful trading. Those apply in any market. In addition, we discussed some of the techniques Chris uses to trade on more than 1 market. The goal is to make trading multiple markets not too confusing. Patience is also a topic we dive onto as many traders I talk with are finding it difficult to remain patient and accept that successful trading takes time & effort. Share This! [bctt tweet="When you see the market as risk, reward, and money, it gets much less confusing." username="DesireToTrade"] In This Episode, You'll Learn... Why Chris started to trade currencies. Specific trading routines that give results. Chris' 5 key for successful trading & how traders fail at not following them. How being patient can help you. Managing your risk in trading (the proper way). Chris' challenge to make $1M before 30 and the reasoning behind it. And much more!

In this Q&A episode, I discuss the idea of relying on luck to make money as a trader. This is obviously a bad way to go about things even though several struggling hope their trades will work out without defining a process or a system. The advice shared in my Facebook Live Q&As are based on my own experience and the interviews I had with multiple successful traders on the Desire To Trade Podcast. Removing Luck & Simple Ways To Win In The Forex Market Once you've removed luck from your trading, do not fall into the trap of adding an unlimited amount of variables to your trading strategy. A lot of traders think they must find the perfect way to make money in the market... That is not your job. You and I, as Forex traders, need to make our plan as simple as possible. That is the primary reason why I use a One-Page Trading Plan. In my opinion, there's no need to look at other markets to confirm a trade you're about to place. In addition, if you are a technical trader, you do not need to spend hours trying to interpret the news in the Forex market. If you want to trade multiple timeframes, do not make the mistake of looking for trades on all time frames at all times. That's not the way it works. I explain how I do multiple timeframe analysis in this podcast episode.   What is one thing you are going to implement after listening to this podcast?

Houston Truong: Holiday Special with A Full-Time Retail Trader Episode 71 of the Desire To Trade Podcast is part of the Holiday special, during which I’m bringing back guests I’ve had previously on the podcast. I selected guests that have made an impact on me throughout the year. In this episode, I interview Houston Truong, a full-time retail trader who, in the past year, left his job to concentrate only on his activities as a stocks trader. Houston has made an immense impact on me. He was the one who inspired me to start the Desire To Trade Podcast in September 2015. He also taught me a lot about routines, mindset, and peak performance. >> Listen to the first episode with Houston Truong I currently co-host the Montreal Traders Meetup with him, through which we set up in-person events for traders monthly. In this interview, Houston and I went back to reflect on the year, the one in which Houston left his job. We also discussed how someone has to go about leaving his job to trade full-time. Houston is particularly concerned about the topic of continuous learning. Unfortunately, we’ve seen many traders who become consistent, and then stop learning forever. That is not a very wise way to go about it. Instead, traders from all ranges of experience should keep feeding their minds with useful information to keep growing. It is a fact that markets change, and that makes it necessary for traders to adapt.

In this Q&A episode, I discuss the 5 things I believe all traders must know before starting to trade Forex. Those 5 keys to trading are summarized below. The advice shared in my Facebook Live Q&As are based on my own experience and the interviews I had with multiple successful traders on the Desire To Trade Podcast. 5 Things You Must Know Before Starting To Trade Forex I wanted to share those 5 things you must know as they are often overlooked. Looking back at my trading, those are things that would have helped me without a doubt. #1: Track Every Single Trade If you do not track, you have no way to go back and find ways to trade better. That is the reason why I recommend you start tracking every single one of your trade from now on (no matter what). If you take bad trades, track them. If you take trades that do not respect your plan, track them. And obviously, do not stop to track when things are going well. And obviously, do not stop to track when things are going well. Keep it going! #2: Trading Is A Game Of Probability It's not because you read about a strategy and implement it flawlessly that you will see success. It is well-known by most experienced traders that any trading strategy goes through a period of consecutive losses. At that point, you need to remind yourself that trading is a game of probability. That being said, you can have a general idea of the win rate your strategy is expected to have, but you can never know how many losses you'll have to go through before you reach the win rate you expected from the start. #3: Trading Comes Down To 3 Simple Types Of Trades No need to complicate trading. Most often, when traders feel overwhelmed, it is due to the fact that they try trading everything at the wrong time. By focusing on understanding the types of trades, and then selecting one you'll learn to trade, you will be able to bring back a great chunk of the simplicity that surrounds Forex trading. Successful currency trading, after all, is about focusing on certain types of trades, and placing the odds in your favor (see #2). #4: Testing Builds Confidence The only way to build confidence as a trader is to see results. Those results can either come from a live trading account or from testing. The ladder is much less stressful, so I recommend you focus on testing before you ever put real money in a trading account. The more you look at charts containing examples of your trading setup, the more familiar you get with your setup. You no longer worry about whether your trading strategy works or not because you've seen more than enough trade examples. Testing definitely builds confidence. If you do not feel confident about your trading strategy, you haven't done enough testing. #5: The More You Automate, The Easier It Gets You do not need to create an algorithmic trading system that will replace you, but you absolutely need to understand the importance of creating successful trading habits. Those are things you do every time without thinking because you have created a routine. Good examples of automation could be: Placing a stop loss when you enter a trade Review your trades every Sunday Look at the news prior to entering a trade And much more... The way you want to go about creating habits is to do the action several times until you no longer have to think. You might want to start by placing a reminder on your screen until you no longer need the reminder. That has been a wonderful trick for me!   What is one thing you are going to implement after listening to this podcast? Leave a comment below, or join me in the Facebook group!

Moritz Czubatinski: A Successful Trader Traveling Around The World In episode 70 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Moritz Czubatinski, a Forex and futures trader currently living in Hong Kong. What I find really interesting about Moritz is that he has been able to travel the world while trading. That is definitely one of my personal goals (I’ll keep you updated!). Interestingly enough, Moritz transitioned from his career as a professional Poker player to a full-time trader traveling the world. However, he had to go through an office job in Beijing in-between. He is also the founder of the blog Tradeciety along with Rolf. Moritz places a particular emphasis on trading journals. For him, having a journal is essential to successful trading. In fact, “I’ve never seen a profitable trader without a trading journal.’, he says. It is for that reason that Moritz created Edgewonk, a trading journal software. Share This!

Day Trading Forex: How To Stop Impulsive Trades Before They Occur In this Q&A #7, I discuss the topic of impulsive trading, especially for people who are day trading Forex. In addition, I go through the 3 questions I ask myself weekly to identify the problem I face in my trading, and how to overcome them. That has made an immense difference. The advice shared in my Facebook Live Q&As are based on my own experience and the interviews I had with multiple successful traders on the Desire To Trade Podcast. This episode ends with a quick discussion on trading beliefs. Those can either make you broke or rich. Therefore, I suggest you spend some time evaluating your beliefs. A good way to start would be to listen to my interview with Dr. Van Tharp as he describes the belief examination process he makes his students go through. In This Episode, You'll Learn...

Anmol Singh: Mindset & Technical Keys To Trading Income In episode 69 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Anmol Singh, a stock, and Forex trader. The thing I find interesting about Anmol is the efforts he puts to trade those two markets both intraday and swing. In short, this interview is packed with very tactical and comprehensive tips in regards to trading routines and the “how-to-trade” aspect. However, Anmol surprised me by sharing great advice on building a mindset that will help you generate an income from trading. I sincerely believe that the way to improve the most consists of improving your mindset and state of mind prior to trading. Anmol had great tips on that. Overall, one of the biggest lessons you can get from this interview is the power of walking away from your trading desk. Often times, you are much better removing yourself from the equation and leaving the market do its job. Your job as a trader is to accept the loss or profit and to keep executing as you should. You shouldn’t be there to watch every single move the market does as this will often push you to act or feel stressed. It’s simply counter-productive. Share This!

ONE Simple Thing To Improve Your Trading & Using Candlesticks In Forex Trading Every Friday, I host a live Forex Trading Q&A on Facebook. In this Q&A #6, I discussed the ONE thing you can do to improve your trading quickly. In addition, I discuss the use of candlesticks in the Forex market. This is based on my own experience. As a matter of fact, I met a fellow trader in person for the first time around the month of June 2015 and that has made a significant impact on myself and my trading. It is also one of the major reason why I started the Desire To Trade podcast. When it comes to candlesticks, I believe that traders spend too much emphasis on the candle close. That might be useful on a high timeframe but it doesn’t mean much on a very low timeframe.

Jean-François Boucher: Trading Tips From A Forex Scalper In episode 68 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Jean-François Boucher, a Forex scalper located in Jasper, Alberta. Jean-François started to trade stocks in the 90s as he worked for IBM. After losing countless amounts of money in options, he discovered the Forex market. What I particularly like about Jean-François is his down-to-earth approach to trading. As a matter of fact, he knows there are no tricks to succeed quickly in trading. You must put in the work. He also mentions a crucial fact, that is, risking 1% per trades allows you to come back. While we often see people risking way more than that, Jean-François’ advice is still very important. You can’t expect to increase your risk too high and stay in the game of trading for very long.  As traders, we are professional losers, so we better account for that. Jean-François says: “it always starts small”, and that is the mindset you need to have if you want to see progress without blowing up countless trading accounts. Share This!

2 Reasons Why Traders Blow Up Their Accounts & The Power Of Consistency Every Friday, I host a live Forex Trading Q&A on Facebook. In this Q&A #5, I discussed reasons why traders blow up their accounts. This topic came up after I had multiple people reaching out to me, as they felt discouraged saying they blew up their trading accounts. In the end, there are only 2 reasons this can happen: You risk too much on any given trade (money management). You have no tested plan. As much as aspiring traders want a quick & easy solution, there's no need to complicate things here. Create a plan, test it, and ensure you have a way to stay in the trading game (hint: not risking too much money on any trade). A good way to put down your trading plan is with my One-Page Trading Plan Template (you can download it for free!). The second topic covered in this Q&A is consistency. Simply put, most struggling traders aren't consistent and focus solely on making money. However, once you become consistent in trading, doors open to you. As a matter of fact, I was able to trade for investors and other people because I had that consistency In This Episode, You'll Learn... 2 Main Reasons Why Traders Blow Up Their Trading Accounts How To Create Your Trading Plan In A Very Short Period The Money Management Guidelines I Follow How To Exponentially Grow Your Consistency In Trading Share This "The holy grail of trading is consistency.

Kevin Davey: Building Winning Algorithmic Trading Systems In episode 67 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Kevin Davey, an algorithmic trading system builder, and trader.

Trading Strategies For Trending Markets - Part 3 Trading Strategies For Trending Markets In episode 64 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I decided to discuss a very popular topic: defining a trading strategy. I recorded a 3-part Guide To Forex Trading Strategies so we can set you up with a plan as soon as possible. Part 1 is available here! Part 2 is available here!

I agree that executing on that plan will be the hardest part, but we have to cover things step-by-step here. In Part 3 of the Guide To Forex Trading Strategies, I'm explaining how to trade in a trending market. That can be a highly profitable type of trading, especially due to the fact that trends are usually strong in the Forex market.   What's Covered In This Episode?

Timothy has been one of the traders I looked up to as I opened my first trading account. His opening quote hit me. According to Timothy, we make things way more complicated than they are and we spend a lot of valuable time caring about unnecessary details. Like me, however, Timothy is of the opinion that there are no get-rich-scheme. He attributes hard work & dedication to his success in penny stocks trading. What is fascinating with Timothy is that he records a video for his students almost daily (even while traveling). Upon recording this interview, Timothy just got back from the Amalfi coast, one of the places he frequently travels to. There's something to be mentioned about the great lifestyle and freedom Timothy has been able to build from trading.   In This Episode, You'll Learn... How Timothy went from $12,000 to $100,000 to then $2,000,000. How any trader can trade and travel fairly easily! How Timothy detects the right stocks and trades them. The REAL reason why Timothy posts about his lifestyle (cars, trips, money, etc.). How to push yourself to grow as a trader. And much more!

I recorded a 3-part Guide To Forex Trading Strategies so we can set you up with a plan as soon as possible. Part 1 is available here! I've seen a lot of traders trading with absolutely no plan expecting they would succeed, so I want to make sure I address this topic.

I agree that executing on that plan will be the hardest part, but we have to cover things step-by-step here.

Albert Maté: Trusting Your Vision And Taking Action To Create A Winning Trading System Show notes: www.desiretotrade.com/albert-mate/ In episode 59 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Albert Maté, a good friend of mine in Montreal who, after being involved in the trading world for several years, is working on a very interesting algorithmic winning trading system. Albert started in scalping. He was trying to make less than a few cents by himself in a Montreal firm called Swift Trade. As his learning curve was fairly flat in the beginning, Albert learned things the hard way through the 2000's bubble. He ended up taking a break off trading, which was a very sound decision. According to a statistic mentioned by Albert, 85% of portfolio managers aren't able to beat the S&P500. That is a key figure to keep in mind. Albert's trading system performance is available on his website Albitrading.com. Although I thought this interview would be mostly useful for algorithmic traders, the conversation moved to a topic useful to any type of trader: how to find financing to trade. While it's good to trade your capital, sometimes having "outside money" can be of great help to achieve your goals. You just need to do te work and follow the steps outlined by Albert in this interview.

Rayner started trading at a young age, after he learned there was a trading competition in his university. He soon discovered that becoming a successful trader required a specific strategy.

During this interview, we discussed a few technical topics, but also how Rayner Teo makes his trading journal, and very importantly, the process traders have to go through to become successful while cutting down the cost of their education.

Patrick James: Working On Your Self-Images & Other Ways To Succeed If this isn't the first podcast episode you're listening to, you certainly know how passionate I am about trading. Sometimes, however, I like to expand my perspectives and bring guests outside the trading world on the Desire To Trade Podcast. These guests bring unique ideas based on their own field of expertise. So far, I've been greatly impressed by the advice the non-traders provided on energy & fitness.  And here's one more! In episode 49 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Patrick James, a charisma expert who shares his best advice on crushing it in life. The interview started with an off-topic conversation about charisma. Then, Patrick mentioned the book Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz. Psycho-Cybernetics is all about self-image. According to Maltz, “you will act like the sort of person you conceive yourself to be.” If you want to ensure you succeed in trading over the long-term, you must not only understand how to trade, but also how to manage yourself. That starts with talking to yourself positively. Affirmations are a great way to change the view you have of yourself. Another very practical advice Patrick proposes is concerns the speed of implementation. You must decide to take control of your self image, and then decide what you want it to be.   What's covered in this episode? What is charisma & why it's important for traders The impact of self-image & how to improve your self-image How to talk to yourself and empower you to succeed The habits that can help you succeed How to use the speed of implementation How to act like the person you want to become How to deal with people who don't support you And much more!

The Power Of A One-Page Trading Plan I resisted the idea of creating a trading plan for so long... but the moment I finally came up with my first trading plan, I felt much better. First, I no longer had to keep everything in my head as I used to do. Second, I had clear guidelines concerning what I was supposed to do. The problem: that trading plan took 30 days to write and was huge. It was very hard for me to go back in that plan to check something. A couple months ago, I came up with the idea of simplifying my plan on a single sheet of paper. The truth is, I've always been a fan of tracking checklists for their simplicity, but I wanted to bring the concept further. As soon as I completed my One-Page Trading Plan, I posted it on my trading desk. I has made a huge difference. Instead of having a set of entry rules, I have everything I need to see on that plan. In episode 45 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I share about my experience with trading plans and tell you precisely how to create a powerful one-page trading plan. [bctt tweet="Big trading plans bring confusion. Great traders have everything on one single page." username="DesireToTrade"] What is discussed in this podcast episode? I used to hate the idea of having a trading plan. Most people you see online recommend a trading plan that looks like a business plan...it never worked entirely for me when it comes to executing. How to create your one-page trading plan: There are a few parts: Vision (where you want to go with trading) Context (time frames, trading times, instruments) Trading strategy (signal, entry, exit) Support (money management, implementation plan) Examples (at the back of it) Making a plan isn't enough, you must make it visible!     What is one thing you are going to implement after listening to this podcast?

The Great Advice From Market Wizards w/ Jack Schwager If I were to ask successful traders the ONE book that influenced them and guided them through becoming traders, Market Wizards would definitely come up. The book contains interviews with traders who are living off trading from around the world. It turns out to be packed with great lessons and highly inspirational.

Trade Like A Casino w/ Richard Weissman "Trade like a casino" sounds like an awesome idea, right? After all, what do casinos do? They have a system/strategy to ensure that they are going to have an edge over the long-run. Does that mean the casino is going to win every poker game? Not at all, but over time, it is almost guaranteed to make money. In episode 42 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Richard Weissman, the author of Trade Like A Casino and a number of different trading-related books that showcase a very insightful and researched methodology to trading. The interesting thing about Richard is that he focuses a lot on research and backtesting. That allows him to develop mechanical trading systems that he is then able to use with a positive expectancy. During this episode, Richard and I discuss what it means to "trade like casino" and how traders can apply this principle in their trading. It's not only about the trading strategy, but also in regards to emotions and psychology. These days, Richard focuses on his role as the CEO of CNV Capital Management, focusing on trading and system development.   Question & Cheat Sheet - Richard Weissman What it means to "trade like a casino" & why it's crucial How to reach the level of trading like a casino Doing research Having a mechanical trading system Building confidence The types of strategies used by great traders How to backtest properly Discretionary trading like a casino And much more!

Finding Your Own Way To Trade w/ Dave Floyd In episode 39 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview a stock & Forex trader I really admire named Dave Floyd, the founder and head of trading at Aspen. Dave started trading in college while he was in Boston. He first read Market Wizards, a book showcasing stories of various successful traders (which I highly recommend!). The interviewed covered several topics, but one of them highly resonated with me. It is the idea of finding your own way as a trader. Once you get through the initial phase of trading, you begin to understand that copying others isn't what will help you succeed. Everybody's different and two traders almost cannot trade the exact same way. You must then find your own way as a trader. Cheat Sheet - Dave Floyd Balancing overtrading vs. not trading enough How to go through the hard learning curve of a trader: it is not about learning strategies from others. The transition between day trading and swing trading: that was a natural transition for Dave. Strategy differences between day trading and swing trading: find someone or a group that can help you in hard times and good times. The biggest mistakes for Dave as a trader: hint: the opposite of overtrading... Following your gut instinct is important but it's not necessarily for beginners. The commonalities between traders: many traders have creative endeavours according to Dave. Approaching stock vs. Forex trading: Dave uses fairly similar approaches. Why you MUST develop your own approach   What is one thing you are going to implement after listening to this podcast? Leave a comment below, or join me in the Facebook group!

5 Elements To Go From Start To Profitable Forex Trading In episode 38 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I share the 5 elements I have applied in my trading journey so far to go from scratch to profitable Forex trading. Read the whole article as I share the 5 elements with more details.   I see that a lot of aspiring Forex traders spend a lot of time looking at trading as being just entering and exiting trades. However, I know that profitable Forex trading requires more than that. Not anyone can start to trade and make money, but those who apply other elements to trading increase their chances to succeed. Cheat Sheet The 5 Elements Set your requirements: decide on the type of trading you are going to perform based on your preference and available time. Create a money management plan: decide on what is going to be your maximum risk per trade, and maximum drawdown so you never run out of money...EVER! Plan your market analysis: focus on ONE thing to trade. It's totally fine to try things and throw them away if you don't like them, but you must focus at some point. Get the right support: find someone or a group that can help you in hard times and good times. Review: review your trades to find patterns among the good/bad trades and focus more on the good to replicate it. Track everything!

A Truck Driver Who Blew Up 9 Accounts To Become A Profitable Trader w/ Ryan Herron Episode 37 of the Desire To Trade Podcast features Ryan Herron, a binary option and Forex trader. HIs story of how he became a profitable trader is very interesting due to the fact that he blew up 9 accounts but kept going. He could see a progression in his results, which made him think that by staying in trading, he would eventually make it. And he did!   During this interview, Ryan and I discussed the fact that, while most traders are looking to get rich overnight, the right amount of action over a longer period of time is required. An aspiring lawyer or doctor must go through a long education process and spend a lot of money. Why would aspiring Forex traders avoid that? Ryan mentioned the importance of focusing on ONE THING (one strategy or way of doing things). Then traders must not forget what comes after: being comfortable trading that one strategy. That strategy can be created or learned from someone else. Through backtesting, we, as traders, ensure that we know exactly what to do upon trading for real. What’s covered in the podcast? The difference between Forex and binary options How Ryan kept going after blowing up 9 accounts The steps Ryan took to learn and progress as a new trader What Ryan sees as the biggest mistake traders make (hint: adding to a losing trade) Examples of focusing on one thing to succeed And so much more...

The Development Of An Automated Trading System w/ Shaun Overton Watch the video interview! Episode 36 of the Desire To Trade Podcast features Shaun Overton, the automated trading system developer also founder of One Step Removed. Shaun started in the forex industry in 2005 working as a broker at FXCM. He led the sales effort for an automated trading fund, which led to his interest into automated trading. He then went on to create his own systems that now allow him to live off them. At the opposite of what I believed, Shaun says developing an automated trading system isn't so complicated. One must learn how to program first. Then, there's a clear process, described during the interview, anyone can follow.  Shaun spends his days researching. This is a passion for him, but his goal is to create more systems that produce positive results. He shared about the exact things he's looking at and the sort of system he has developed. Although this podcast episode appears fairly technical, there's something that can be learned by any trader. Both automated system traders and manual traders must backtest their trading plan. One of the common problem consists of backtesting only for a restricted period of time and optimizing the system for that period. The world of automated can be highly fascinating for traders with an interest for statistics and programming. For more on that topic, I recommend listening to DTTP 011: The Fascinating World of Automated Trading and checking what Shaun is doing at One Step Removed. What’s covered in the podcast? What it's like to be an automated system trader Examples of factors predicting the movement of a currency pair  The steps to develop an automated trading system The biggest mistakes made when developing an automated trading system What type of broker works best for automated system traders Best resources to learn to program And so much more...

Lessons From A Successful Forex Day Trader w/ Casey Stubbs Episode 35 of the Desire To Trade Podcast features Casey Stubbs, a Forex day trader and the man behind  Winner's Edge Trading. Casey usually starts his day around 6:30 am EST and is done with trading by noon. He specializes on trading the EUR/USD pair and uses only simple trading strategies. Upon finishing his trading day, Casey has the rest of the day for his other occupations: spending time with his family and running his website. Over the course of this podcast episode, Casey Stubbs mentioned the fact that traders must have their own trading strategies. Copying other traders' systems isn't a way to become consistently profitable. Aspiring Forex traders must firstly learn as much as possible. Then, they personalize their trading strategies. That helps a lot to stick to one strategy. As his last piece of advice, Casey mentioned the idea of trading small position sizes in order until becoming consistently profitable. Only then can Forex traders start to increase their position size. What’s covered in the podcast? The difference between simple and complicated trading strategies How Forex traders can easily get support Casey's biggest mistakes as a Forex trader The main objective for a trader (it's not making money!) What happens just before you finally stick to ONE trading strategy What keeps Casey motivated each day And so much more...

Trade With Edge w/ Mike Bellafiore Episode 34 of the Desire To Trade Podcast features Mike Bellafiore, the co-founder of SMB Capital, a well-known proprietary trading firm based in New York, USA. Mike is also the author of One Good Trade: Inside the Highly Competitive World of Proprietary Trading and The PlayBook: An Inside Look at How to Think Like a Professional Trader. SMB Capital’s trader-training program was highlighted in the TV documentary Wall Street Warriors. His firm has appeared regularly on CNBC’s Fast Money, CNNMoney, Bloomberg, and Fox Business. I first heard of Mike Bellafiore and SMB Capital through Mike's first book called One Good Trade. It describes how things are done in a proprietary trading firm and provides real stories of traders who had or hadn't what it took to thrive in this world of trading. I highly recommend the book! Mike has a lot of experience working with traders and came to understand what made them successful. He also knows what the learning process looks like for a trader. During this interview, we discussed the traits traders must develop in order to succeed. At one point, I asked Mike what advice he had for struggling traders. He pointed out something very insightful. In his opinion, traders can't start and be successful right away. Struggling is simply part of the progress. There is a process traders must follow if they want to see results. It takes time but Mike Bellafiore, without any doubts, know what it's like. What’s covered in the podcast? How Mike Bellafiore started to trade How the learning phase is broken down A great piece of advice for struggling traders The culture at SMB Capital Andrew's #1 lesson for any trader What keeps Mike motivated each day And so much more...

The Most Valuable Insights On Trading Psychology - Andrew Menaker Episode 33 of the Desire To Trade Podcast features Dr. Andrew Menaker, a highly knowledgeable and well-known psychologist in the trading world. Since 1995, Andrew has been coaching traders and top fund managers to achieve a better performance.  Being a trader himself, Andrew is frequently asked to speak at conference and is constantly being requested advices across the world.  I, personally, have been blown away by this interview. The depth of the information provided and the great interest I had in the topic made me listen very carefully to every single words spoken by Dr. Andrew Menaker on trading psychology. From the start, Andrew Menaker mentioned "no one can master trading". This is a substantial thing to understand due to the fact that most of our decision-making is made subconsciously. Those looking to become perfect traders do not have a single chance to succeed.  The next very interesting thing to note is that we, as traders, bring our own personality to trading. Two traders do not see the exact same chart the same way. In fact, "We don't see the market as it is, we see the market as we are" is a powerful statement! What’s covered in the podcast? Why no trader can master trading & what to do about it The source of our decision making The greatest ability you must develop as a trader What confidence truly is and how to get it Andrew's #1 lesson for any trader The true difference between a winning and a losing trade How to journal powerfully And so much more...  Show notes: http://www.desiretotrade.com/andrew-menaker/ Get the FREE Complete Price Action Strategy Checklist: http://www.desiretotrade.com/complete-price-action-checklist/ Get the New FREE Perfect Engulfing Pattern Cheat Sheet: http://www.desiretotrade.com/perfect-engulfing-cheat-sheet-5/
