Anton Kreil - Is It Even Possible for Retail Traders to Make Money Trading? 

🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Grant Todd 🤣👍

@Grant Todd I'm dead.. 😅😅😅

Lol

Why flip upside down? @Grant Todd

you think so? lol he comes off as a genuinely kind guy but that's still funny.

i think he is a true hero, who opens up peoples eyes for good

He does trade in bond, doesn't he?

"For England, James?" "No. For me"

Check out the BBC documentary he is in.

I lost more than that, and still not giving up. This is my fourth year, and my first successful!

@@yubakrarai Never ever give up keep going

@@yubakrarai what sort of stocks were you trading ?

@Deranged Seal 333 how can you lose 50k?! Looool. That’s insane you are making terrible decisions clearly.

@@yubakrarai I’m on year 7 now, and I will never give up on this game. I have gotten exponentially better every year.

Ian Hunt in what way?

Losing it.

Pay the market or pay someone

@@evantrades You'll pay the market regardless. Easy to pay someone, but you still need to build self-experience

So true

I was going to suggest to just buy shares of Goldman Sachs. However... Over the last ten years, Goldman Sachs shares has had a total return of 223%. During the same time, the S&P500 has had a total return of 288%.

Sir are you making money ?

Yep. Every trader has blown their account because they "knew" they were doing good. Hopefully you only blew a 500$ account and not a 50k$ account, though.

@@piyushdas5151 i lost. Now i will

this sounds nice but it makes ZERO sense. If you understood what makes a trader you would speak about that not about a vague notion 'experience' you didnt even address survivor bias...

piyush das Im pretty sure they are people who can make money, just common sense.

🤣🤣🤣

Don't know about trading but party? I can see he loves to party 😂

Drinks later at the pub 😂

No, it only proves that he's tired, nothing more, lol.

It basically means trading the same strategies etc. and mimicking what the elite performers do.

That's what his mentoring program is all about.

@@andreasmelkersson3592 yes, but what exactly are the elites doing in real time?

Hey look at that, someone using their brain.

@@jackhudkins542 insider trades if you want to add one, or what they'll call "following the smart money" that's the only way to beat that system, but you won't beat it every single trading session. Or like the videos says "you let the portfolio work" you have to know what to get into, and not just go all out in 2 stocks.

Because they're the one who make money while the vast majority of retail traders loose money and most of the ones who don't loose make so little they could just kept a normal job instead

any tips on how to learn more about phycology?

@@sobriquet5016 learn from an accredited phycologist

Damn really? I didn’t know studying algae was necessary for trading markets

@@Steves_fish lmaooo ☠️☠️☠️ OP made a mistake and said ‘phycology’ instead of ‘psychology’. Phycology is the study of algae, which has absolutely 0 importance in trading. It was just a typo Hahahaha 🤣🤣

Market volatility is tend to be driven by mass psycology, not math equation.

@@denpono9763 look up jim simons. There are probably a few more who played the market through math. Just pointing out that your statement isn’t accurate.

Simmons is old stuff nowadays

LOL. So true.

true

What does that even mean?

I mean just look at naked shorting as an example. Billions of synthetics, never have to cover, FTDs forever. DTCC is a joke

@@zytolen5356 it means goldman sachs (and other banks) can get away with cheating in order to win when they know there is a good chance they will lose

That last statement is facts… coming into trading in a hot market

Nobody forces you to take a broker that uses payment for order flow.

@@samuel.andermatt advanced market depth bid/ask info isn’t free. The depth of market we have in Metatrader or other trading platforms is just a joke for kindergarder children. A good DOM platform I think is esignal, even though I’m not sure. Even if it is what I think it costs from around 100 per month or even more

If you do your DD and are making a sound investment based on the available info with a long-term plan for exiting the position according to your own goals (price targets from institutions like Goldman Sachs can inform this), then it doesn't how much the order flow data gets exploited on a short-term basis to punish the shaky hands of retail day traders. A sound investment thesis will get supported by major institutions because they want to benefit from its soundness just like you do. An unsound investment thesis will get exploited because it's unsound and driven by greed, ignorance or outright stupidity.

@@zeharr you’re talking about investments. This video is talking about trading. The two are not the same.

What do you do once you hit the maximum (zero)?

Nice. About the only sensible comment about investing here. The rest of commentators have it all figured out - bullish 100% of the time.

Can you expand on that? Keeping short stops is one way. Another would be to buy puts or calls? Please tell..

People also are incredibly short sighted with their holds. They set a stop loss too short, even though the weekly trends show an increase over the course of 3-6 months. Its ok to be down 5 to 6 percent for a short while if you see the larger trend moving. Problem is these retail brokers flash big red numbers at you as soon as you drop below 0. This scares people into selling otherwise solid long term stocks that sometimes triple in price over 3 months.

he is talking about traders not investors. Hold stocks for years doesnt make you a trader it makes you an investor. Two completely different things.

@@alejandrosanchez2085 thanks for the definition.

alejandro sanchez Perhaps he meant the long game, as in “long” a stock = to buy?

@@alejandrosanchez2085 when did he say he is an investor? All he said was he has a small portfolio capital to trade with🙄

@@chorrellpique4057 no I think he meant growing slowly learning with each trade bcz with a small account he can take big volume trades

😂😂😂😂

They took the chart out it’s its now just a table in the MDA section under metrics.

That's comical. Tell me, what happens if you lose 20% of your portfolio three times in a row?What percent of your portfolio do you have left? 99% of wannabe day traders can't do simple math but think can rule the markets. Its very easy to have such a scenario. You can replace 20% with 10% if you want. Over time, if you don't know what the fuck you're doing you're going to lose your ass off.

Stop losses are to prevent large margin day traders from blowing accounts. The best traders don't put themselves into positions where theh will lose money to begin with. The problem is that poorer people want the money fast. If you are conscious of the larger trend, these stop losses can hurt you, because a temporary dip in price is irrelevant if you plan a winning strategy over the course of several months. These winning firms stick their money into long term winning assets. Temporary losses mean nothing if they know a stock will grow 30 percent over 12 weeks. They let it sit because if it's not broken dont fix it.

Actually bad traders use stop loss, good traders know how to size to begin with, if you're using a stop loss every time it means you're sizing way too much. Good traders know how to size, how to scale in and out, how much to risk on high and low volatility markets, trade very small for potential home runs, bad traders over leverage themselves with a tight stop loss and wonder why they get stopped often.

I’ve hardly ever used a stop-loss and made profits. The times I did try it (purely out of curiosity), I lost money...

really how many times has a trade hit your sl then just like that the trade goes your way

yes. But only for institutions. Not the kind you think of at the stock exchange screaming numbers.

@@MrSupernova111 he means computers run trading algorithms now

Would you happen to sell fireworks? Just a question. 😊

Well, they are not trading on their own. They have quants, risk managers, and most of the time they are making markets for their clients. Let's not forget that those banks have huge trading losses from time to time too.

I lost about the same amount. Haven't made it back yet tho, lol. One day! Good luck and keep it up 👍

Hei. .did u break even

I m in the same fucking path

Best wishes to u....sheesh....

i think ive found a retail trader 🤣🤣

you do whatever the fuck you want, don't be tied to religion and politics, be tied to what you want to do with your life or maybe you want to die with regrets. I don't want to live in a society where the group has to pay for one's mistake nor in one where we sacrifice one for the sake of the group. Tribes have got us very far, but that's history now. We adapt.

Women tend to go for jobs that involve people

They dont have take profit. They just let it run because enough is never enough for them.

Of course they use a stop loss, Goldman, like all other trading firms, have very advanced risk models that with strategic stop losses.

@@user-ri4qk1xy3c Their stop loses aren't the same as retail traders you clown, so it's irrelevant to the retail trader. They can absorb much bigger loses and market volatility than the average trader. Wake up.

So who’s losing. If retail are making more than hedge, then who’s losing for both the be winning

Lord Farquad everybody’s winning rn but the past month has been a little tough and it probably hurt retail traders more than hedge funds

@@lordfarquad5212 Melvin Capital. lol

sarcasm?

Do you happen to be a Korean hedge fund manager?

How often were you trading during those two years?

It would mean so, so much to me if you could briefly (in a couple sentences) list the most important things to becoming profitable. All the best & congratulations on working through it!

Seneca yamma number 1 is to accept a loss and don't extend your stop loss. Take the hit. You will have bad days where you lose your stop loss amount (500).. about half of days! It's hard to accept this. But remember ..on the good days you let it run to your profit amount..(1400) .. So over time you win. If you extend your stop...you will lose trust meeeeeeee

For anyone who is serious about trading they need either (or both) a degree in accounting/finance or math/statistics. Both types of degrees will help but lead to different strategies. You can learn much of what you need on your own but it will be a long journey and I definitely don't recommend trading with hard cash until a good educational foundation is in place.

@@MrSupernova111 so not true im a student in finance and control on the university. Its also a hard time for me

Lmao

You are ignorant like most people who believe in the fearmongering of trading stocks. Sounds like you've been snake-bitten, there are elite traders who regularly outperform the S&P 500.

@@andreasmelkersson3592 Sure, but at what cost to their time?

Warren Buffett analogy Value investing

Totally agree. It’s a myth that traders make more money than investors.

@@johnfurr5698 That argument can be made for anything that requires you to do so to become an expert at it.

And how do they trade? Do you have any idea where is a good source to research?

BLUEGENE13 I felt like that statement was meant as like a half joke cause he came from Goldman. Not really a joke though since he actually is a good trader haha

Belief is a powerful motivator that makes salesmen fortunes lol How can people be so stupid? There's nothing wrong with trading if you like guessing cos you can't learn away the randomness of the journey of price. Im not talking about investing where you own your speculation 100% and keep it indefinitely through difficult times when loosing but not lost. Remember you only win or loose when you stop a speculation and the poor muppets that set stop losses in day trading want certifying. Oh I can here them saying that stop losses are part of my strategies risk reward ratio, pmfsl. Hayden.

i dont think its fair to assume the 90% who lose money are the exact same 90% who like the video

Not true. I’ve been trading for 6 years, became profitable after 4 1/2 years after knowing what the hell is going on.

cope some more wont ya? learn first, then you'll have a significant reducement of loss

Nice try educator
