This week Nick talks to Steve Ruffley Steve Ruffley is a professional trader of nearly 25 years. Steve offers personalised trading risk management and mentoring packages and is a published author with The Pro Retail Trader: How to Generate Professional-level Returns as a Retail Trader. The discussion explores Steve Ruffley's career in financial markets, detailing his journey from a university dropout to a professional trader. Initially working at PricewaterhouseCoopers, he later discovered his passion for trading in Gibraltar, where he joined a proprietary trading firm. Ruffley reflects on the challenges of professional trading, including high financial targets and the transition from floor trading to electronic platforms. After a stint in risk management, he returned to independent trading, focusing on indices and forex. He emphasises the importance of discipline, confidence, and quick decision-making in trading, distinguishing between retail and professional approaches. Steve also shares insights on market adaptability, critiques the growing influence of AI in trading, and discusses his latest book, The Pro Retail Trader, which aims to guide retail traders in advancing their skills.

In today’s episode, you’ll discover how a retail trader like you can beat the pros at their own game.

Andrew Aziz is a Retail Trader, Founder of the Bear Bull Community of Traders and is author of Amazon top-selling book, ‘How to Day Trade for a Living: Tools, Tactics, Money Management, Discipline and Trading Psychology’. Andrew talks about his journey into trading after completing a PhD in Chemical Engineering, then abandoning a career in that field to focus on becoming a trader. In this excellent interview Andrew opens up and shares his views on a wide range of themes, including how easy it is for traders to access markets but equally how difficult it is for traders due to the lack of mentors and guides, and how little good advice is available, allied to people’s over-optimism with regard to the realities of trading. Themes discussed in this podcast include self-awareness, and how this leads to greater self-confidence, self-management, growth and progress. We also talk about the dreaded ego enemy and Andrew shares stories of when ego got the better of him in his trading in ways that were to prove extremely costly. Andrews own humility shines through clearly in this podcast.

In this episode of the AlphaMind podcast we interview veteran retail trader Greg Gossett. Greg is well into his third decade of retail trading, proving that it can be done, and can be done well. In this excellent interview Greg shares with Steven and Mark his thoughts on the 3 key things he wished he had known when he started trading that he knows now. These 3 aspects are cornerstones to his trading method and his reflections on them are powerful insights in trading which carry important lessons for traders of all levels.Greg also provides a daily mentor and trading podcast which is available to all free on Youtube. Greg talks about his work mentoring traders on his Gossett Trading & Mentoring and how it helps him in his own trading. Gossett Mentoring & Trading can be found on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCviK0XeiDS0l1deHtEVmrKw.Greg's twitter handle is: @gossetttrading.The latter part of this episode looked at the ‘Performance’ aspects of trading with a rather unusual twist: Mark raised the idea that elite athletes are using ‘Chewing Gum’ to enhance performance, with the act of 'chewing gum' being related to improved performance.This performance aspect expanded out more fully into a discussion on performance, human biology, neuroscience, and trading. This was a great and highly inspiring interview which includes some great discussions and valuable lessons on the mental aspects of trading.

This is the second part of the interview Mark and Steve conducted with retail trader JJ aka vwaptrader1. In the first part of this interview JJ shared stories of his time as a Penny Stocks MarketMaker in a world immortalised in the movie ‘Wolf of Wall Street’. JJ talked about his rise and fall in that world and some of the scandalous behaviours and practices which were part of that world. He also detailed his move into retail trading, his initial struggles and the shock to the system being ‘on the other side’. In the latter part of this interview, JJ goes far more into the soul of retail trading. He discusses the concept of tape reading and how this ancient art is still the skill which lies at the core of trading. This led to a more detailed talk with JJ opening up about what he learned about himself through trading and how it tested him by sparking the demons within. This was a fascinating chat which moved towards discussions on personal psychology, ego, dealing with stress and anxiety, using practices to help you cope with this and the value of having a support network around you. This chat will prove insightful and informative to traders at all levels who will recognise many of JJ’s own experiences and to new and novice retail traders keen to learn some of the potential pitfalls and challenges which they need to be aware of.

Former Penny Stocks Market-Maker, turned Retail Trader, Trader Educator and host of the superb ‘Confessions of a Market-Maker’ podcast JJ aka 'vwaptrader1' talks to Steven and Mark about his colourful career, his time as a stock manipulator, how he helped take companies private, his rise and fall, and his new career retail trading. JJ spent 2 decades working in the mad and crazy world of market-making in penny stocks which was immortalised in the classic film ‘Wolf of Wall Street’.In that time JJ came to accumulate the sort of wealth most people come into trading for, only to see it disappear just as easily. He then suffered the near-death experience of heart attack, followed by a triple heart-bypass. More recently JJ moved into the world of retail trading. His journey into this world was anything but smooth, and he soon found that his 20 decades in market-making was of relatively little value in the challenging world of retail trading. This interview is the first part of two interviews with JJ where he talks candidly about the world he inhabited, the people in it, and the challenges of making it as a retail trader.We discuss some of the learnings and insights he has made since becoming a retail trader, and about what he has learned from some of the great guests he has had on his show. We also discuss the MarketProfile tool and associated methods he uses to help him find value in the markets.

The other day, I was asked “How can a little guy like me make money in the markets? Is it even possible?” I understand the question. In a world where power is controlled by: Big government. Big business. Where big money talks and can even buy you justice in the courtroom. It can be hard to believe that people like you and me stand a chance. People root for underdog. David vs. Golliath. Mom and Pop shop vs. Walmart. Rocky Balboa vs. Apollo Creed. In trading perhaps the Institutions vs. the Retail Trader (you). On numerous occasions I’ve had people “How can the little guy make money in the markets?” You feel they have unfair advantages. That the markets are “fixed.” The markets are manipulated by the big money. Bottom line – you’re making excuses for yourself. So we seem to have it in our nature to root for the little guy or the underdog. Study done by Joseph Vandello of the University of South Florida: We tend to assume that the underdog has better personal character. This is why in Presidential elections the candidates FIGHT to be viewed as the underdog! In the most recent presidential election here in the US: Even after a strong performance in Iowa, and he went way up in the polls, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper asked Bernie Sanders if he still considered himself an underdog. Sanders seemed upset and answered “Of course I’m an underdog.” Hillary Clinton, though part of the establishment of Washington insisted she was an underdog because she was a woman. Donald Trump insisted he was an underdog because he wasn’t part of the political establishment. In the 2008 election, both Barack Obama and John McCain referred to themselves as underdogs! Vandello found that between 2/3 to ¾ of people are susceptible to the underdog phenomena. Possible explanations: Our enjoyment of drama and excitement. Our quest for fairness. Do you root for the underdog in sports, biz, etc. because you identify with them yourself as a bit of an underdog in life. Why? RELATE to them. That is YOUR self-identity. Many of us feel under-compensated on the job, in relationships, etc. We feel we’ve worked hard and aren’t rewarded enough. I’m going to challenge you. Crabs in a Barrel Example: When harvesting crabs and putting them into a barrel, the group will pull  back those about to get out. We see this in humans too. People become jealous. Someone else getting out of the barrel takes away our excuses. We’d rather pull others down than to pull ourselves up and then help others get out. Out of spite or envy we try to halt the progress of other so we all stay on the same level, even if it’s to our own destruction. Back to the title of this podcast: “How the Little Guy Can Make Big Money in the Market.” They can’t! The “little guy.” Don’t be that – you want your wife to call you the “Little Guy” in bed? Mr. America: “don’t wish it was easier, with you were better.” This has nothing with how much money you have. It has to do with your self-image. If you have the right self-image, even though you don’t have the money, you’ll get the money. CHANGE YOUR SELF IMAGE NOW!!! Your check will only be as big as you are. So don’t be a frickin piker!!! I understand how this can be challenging specifically in the world of trading. Large firms are allowed to: Rent floor space at the exchanges to put their computers between you and the exchanges computers. Buy and Sell in “Dark Polls” so their price and volume don’t show up on your charts in real-time. Engage in high-frequency trading with mind-numbing computer power and speed using the best of the best mathematical and computer geniuses to create superior algorythms. In addition, they often use microwave technology rather than fiber optics so they gain literally nano-seconds over you and I, and to arbitrage between currencies, countries,

Die original Shownotes findest Du unter: http://tradingpodcast.net/23 Am 7.4.2018 war ich auf der Super Conference des Institutes für Trading & Portfolio Management. Eine Organisation ehemaliger Hedgefund Manager und Investmentbanker die sich zum Ziel gesetzt haben Retail Trader (also Trader wie dich und mich) in den selben Techniken auszubilden, in denen sie ausgebildet wurden. Gleichzeitig sagen sie, ein Ansatz wie ihn 90% der Retail Trader fahren ist zum Scheitern verdammt. Die Ausbildung, die man von den meisten Brokern und Retail Trader-Instituten bekommt funktioniert nicht. Es ist also interessant Anton Kreil und seinen Kollegen zuzuhören und zu testen, was wir davon für unser Trading nutzen können. Was habe ich auf der Konferenz gelernt: - Warum man in der 2018/19-Korrektur Optionen beherrschen muss, um nicht zu verlieren - Was ein Consensus-Trade ist und warum er gefährlich ist - Welche Fundamentals man bei Öl checken sollte - Welche Pain-Trades in 2018/19 alle überraschen könnten

You often hear traders and non-traders say that the markets are rigged, that they are all manipulated and Wall St is one big casino out to rob the unwary.

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.
