This man is a literal gem. Come back Tom.
100% Agree, absolute legend.
I've listened to this probably like 5 times, I thought this was a new one. Dante, we need a new one!
you have a lot of free time on your hands. Lucky
@@shaunboy13 lmao stfu were in the middle of a quarantine
I listen to this while trading, best background motivation haha
@@rev0luci0n Dante is definitely the best motivation for trading lol. Once in a while I come back to these videos that I've listened to a ton of times and listen again.
10th relisten, great motivation when trading live.
Some things I picked:
-Don't leave trades on their own for hours.
-Use stop losses.
-Pull the trigger when it goes against you.
-Reverse wrong trades.
Basically is the opposite of investing for mid/long term. I reckon just few people can do the both successfully.
@AVLRECORDS you sound vaxxed and hurt
Miss your periscopes
Even one vid a year like this one would be ultra appreciated
Probably the 3rd or 4rd time watching this in the past 2 years and every time I learn something new from it, Thanks Mate
Tom, during these hard times we need to hear from you, much love
Seconded! Great video.
Dude you need your own podcast. This is so damn good
Yes daddy come back and share your losses agian
I believe him because he has 6 screens
Excellent Video! Excuse me for chiming in, I would love your opinion. Have you ever tried - Millawdon Future Ticket Trick (search on google)? It is a good one off guide for teaching children to read minus the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my buddy after many years got cool results with it.
I'll believe him if he's got a hot wife
glad im not the only one
real traders don't need 6 screens ...
@@Brownismyname LOL how many real traders do you know?
You fancy doing more stuff like this, Tom? Sitting listening to you talking about stuff is top class. You're a proper sound guy.
This is a gem honestly. Do more of these Tom, or start a podcast fam. Honestly love these stories
OMFG! I love your trader stories! Why aren't you doing more stories? You're a great story teller.
I genuinely enjoyed this. Best trader talk ever! Must watch!!
Dante, You the King my bro. First video and Ive watch of a genuine person and not some arse educator making money from beginners like myself. Help me ur servant my King
one of the best conversations i ever had without saying a word ;)
You are an absolute legend to share these experiences! Incredibly thankful Dante!
Tom you are a legend, appreciate all you do to help out new traders
I am your student from last 6 months I am watching your videos again and again , but I am not bored.
We have been waiting a long time for anything from the man across the pond. I’m gonna grab a beer and a notebook and enjoy. Perfect Sunday night viewing.
The Best trading video on UA-cam! All Traders from New beginners to professional's need to watch this video! Keep the videos coming Dante!
This is fucking epic and worth its weight in gold. Thanks Tom......look forward to watching many more.
The guy who was fading everyone is an absolute legend 😂😂
This man is my mentor and doesn’t even know it lmaoo. I’ve heard this mans voice over 1000 times in the past 2 months 🤣.
In terms of his time and genuineness, Tom is one of the most generous people I've ever seen in the trading community.
+1 monthly Dante podcast would be sick
Man hope for a part 3 ,..these two parts were the one thing that changed my trading.
Same here makes you trivialise trading into what it is when you hear someone talk about the markets like this. It becomes something more enjoyable than stressful ey?
Yes Tom. Absolutely love your trading stories. Legend!! Been too long since your last video!
I absolutely enjoyed your stories both part 1 and 2!
Awesome!
lookin forward to future videos Tom.
Enjoying this one.
Whoa look who it is! Glad to see a video again tom. So much knowledge
Thanks for sharing these stories. It helps put my own relatively limited experience in perspective.
Amazing to hear your stories. Had some major luck like you very recently. Don't know how but I survived complete account blowout by I shit you not less than 10 secs. Closed an open limit position that I was walking away from, just had a gut feeling. Looked at my phone 30 mins later, thanked my lucky stars and entered a long to make the best trade of my life!
I spent 2 hours looking for this video again, its such great video Thanks Dante!
That’s some crazy quality content, don’t stop, not the loss we are willing to take
I was long Euro Swiss, also with a stop. But I got bored watching it trickle sideways. I thought of switching to Euro Yen. So I closed out Euro Swiss first, went to the bathroom, came back to my screens and my wife called out "Can you open this tin for me ?" So I go to the kitchen, the rim of the tin was damaged, so the only way I could open it was to punch a series of holes and then lifting out the lid by forcibly levering with a screwdriver...so I return to my screens...and lo and behold....the swiss pairs are suddenly in the process of a huge fast whipsaw....talk of a narrow escape ! Phew ! I was so freaked I went for a swim and didn't go near my monitors for two weeks, LOL.
When you were talking about the Head Trader’s loss it reminded me of when I traded off my phone during NFP 1lot on 1K account… lesson learned. Loved this
26:39 had me rolling around :-) "just find a c... who does his a55 every single day and just do the opposite"
Great vid Tom. Pure gold, i have a feeling i will be revisiting this one on a regular basis.
This is really entertaining, wow
this man is a legend, so good voice to listen. thank You man
Appreciate your perspective, thanks for the video
Trading.. some GREAT insight shared
Ladies and gentlemen the goat is back🙌
This is an old vid...
@@ahmedbob423 I wrote the comment before watching the video then I noticed
Interesting video. Liked hearing your copper trade story and getting rekt, I think every good trader needs to experience this. It’s part of the passage of becoming a trader.
Love to hear these raw trading stories man. Thanks
I heard the opposite from renowned traders about the break even, that you only need to make some adjustments to be profitable.
I think its a very individual thing.
Hello, I just heard about your loss in copper. I had something like that my self,
2 weeks ago the eur/gbp went up hard and I was buying for a long time and accumulating , soon after I close my trades I went to withdraw money that I worked for about 2 months.
I cant describe the feeling of happiness that I felt that evening, so I decided to go sit somewhere nice and enjoy the rest of the night.
I went to a small local café and sate there to enjoy the music and a beverage, at that time I felt EGO and I wanted to trade more...
I opened USOIL chart and checked the price and it was on a perfect run on the trend so I put a couple of shorts on it (price 88)
immediately 5 mins in my lose reached 3k dollars , and I was like fk me I cant take this lose the price went to high and it has to come down , I was confident about that because it was all time high, so literally while I was thinking this the lose went up to 4.5k , at that moment I started to have a mental melt down,
I literally felt dizzy and something burning inside my heart , I ordered the check and wanted to grasp some air outside,
after I left the café, I went home to see what happened on my position, when I checked it was 7k loss.
I didn't know what to do, I couldn't think, and couldn't breathe, I went to close my position on 7k loss, my finger was on the close button but I was hesitating
in this moment (3-5 sec hesitating) my loss went from 7k to 9k and I closed everything at oil price 90 and lost 9k :(
30 minutes later the price of oil went to 91.8 which is 8 years all time high, I could have been liquidated and double my losses.
The big loss taught me a lot , mostly I was not able to trade for couple of days because of the mental trauma, I felt anything I do will go wrong side.
but slowly went back to my strategy and started to pick up the pieces.
Hearing your story made me laugh a lot on my self and made it easy, THANK YOU FOR SHARING
Traders like alcoholics after a successful recovery therapy: losing discipline one time could destroy you fully and completely and beyond that. You never know when it come, what will be the trigger event(s) an how deeply affect your mental state, judgement, discipline. Once your guard down you smashed. The real difficulty is that your discipline is working hundred times day by day. You have the sense you are in control what is true, until it is not. Could you keep up discipline for five years, ten years day by day? Even if you could still have other dangers lurking on the corner as we heard, like software errors, black swan events, etc. Knowing these spec rules should be implemented and practiced daily to minimize the probability of discipline errors an other threats. An it is still not 100% safe system, far from that. Welcome in the trader's paradise!
Thanks for this. Your honesty is awesome !
Good to see you again
Informative and hilarious!!!!! Glad I found Trader Dante! :-)
Literally reading flash crash this minute and trader dante 's name came up, so looked it up haha
I laughed so hard at the smashing monitors story
I love this video so so much
this was awesome. thanks for sharing!
Can you please go back on Chat with traders? Might sound cheesy but, you’re my trader Idol, even though you’ve never responded to anything I’ve ever said to you. I’d like to know how you’re doing and what you’re up to these days.
This is a great video. more of these please!
Love these stories, thank you so much for sharing!!!
Thanks a lot for these great stories, very enjoyable
Oh, this is the old one. Seen it multiple times.
Great video especially that last bit of advice at the end many thanks :-)
got excited, then realised Ive watched this to death! haha!
this was awesome - cheers man
That last story was so painful. I would have sobbed my soul out.
Can't wait for you to get back here in YT Tom. Please make more videos like this (If there is more).
The name's Bund. James Bund **sips martini**
Great goodnight stories. love it man. keep it up!
I really enjoyed this thank you for the wonderful insight!
I would love to hear the copper trade... I think it might be the one where you were crying on the bus at Moorgate from one of your earlier videos
Copper is an L...as in Looser...if you play this market like 1918-1945...you'll loose.
Keep posting man !!
Funny stories, the angry Greeks made me laugh!
very good re-cap loved those parts on CWT.
29:51 I think its important if you are a "breakeven trader: by cheating (revenge trading) or if you "just a breakeven trader" because trading breakeven over a long period of time confirms that your management kind of works, building the edge is a simple thing, but manage money is difficult.
Wow! Thanks for the video!
🙌 he's back
You tell a great story......great listen. 👍
Tom is great story teller
Gimme gimme part 2. You tell a great story for a Pom 👍🏼
Hi Tom, Love the video. Never laughed, so much!!!
Wow, i didnt see this coming when you said you need to to step up the youtube game.
Amazing stories.. Thanks for sharing
We really need a part 3
"Always ask the pin bar master before you trade"😂😂😂
DANTE WE WANT MORE STORiES!
amazing! really entertaining! And good points. lots to learn. Why did you stop posting?
This guy walks the walk
Man very good teaching lessons!
Hello Tom as a futures trader from London, could you do another part explaining what happened with oil crash traders (IB traders get funded back, nobody keep trapped?) and new stories from London's traders. Its a suggestion of course. Thanks from the new generation
The last story - I've had that happen to me. Fortunately I have a tight stop as a default and after 4-5 clicks I got nervous and phoned the broker. Also did not get caught in a big move. But still, crazy in 2020.
Amazing content ! Keep it up.
The girl hope shes alright.
amazing stories thanks for sharing !
Thanks Tom.
Absolute gold!
Youre great mate...watched many times over..
Legend
26:37 ....I'm crying!!!
Hey Dante, what's happening? Last Video one Year ago....
Hope you're doing good.
That data glitched happened to me on mt4 and IG charts. MT was running 20 min behind and I was literally looking into the future. Made $1000 USD in one day on a $3K account. Too bad it was a demo account.
How the fuck am I only finding out about this guy now lol…please do more on UA-cam your a breath of fresh air in this game
gotta love the greek guys lol😂
Great stories to hear.
Traders biggest enemy is trend flipping on A dime(e.g. 1H/lower time frame trend).Trend on 4H chart is the best trend guide for majority of forex traders( if one keeps trades for 2-5 days). By the time trader realizes that trend on daily chart is up, market has already gone up about 3-5 days & if you ask supercomputer for the mathematical odds, computer tells you that odds are negative right from the start.Trend based on the last 5-10,four hourly candles has enough players/juice behind it so that it would not flip on A dime, so trader has decent chance to make something without buying overpriced asset. We seek your wisdom?
