    In this video, I challenge myself to turn $1,000 into $5,000 by day trading futures with no previous experience. What could go wrong??

    I think this experiment reflects that of many people trying out day trading for the first time. Maybe you have some luck and you feel like you know what you're doing - until it all goes against you. Without a strong, backtested strategy and unemotional trading, you will fail as a day trader - like I did in this video.

    Shell-shocked financial backers have a lot to think about and losses to recover from after a terrible 2022. An expansion report and a wealth of other data did little to alter assumptions that the Central bank would likely keep raising interest rates regardless of whether the economy slows down, which implies that portfolios will experience more losses in the first quarter of 2023. I'm currently at a crossroads deciding whether to switch my $250k security/stock portfolio; how may I profit from the ongoing uncertain market?

      you can't. it's not said much but there are times when u. best stay out...volatility is useful, up to a point, but if fundamentals are awry the risk rises accordingly. once the risk is greater than 10% it's all no good, for safe money is better. Buffet and his gang of dip buyers start squeezing wholly owned subsidiaries and selling more auto insurance-- if the dividend isn't high they sell; and that's a glue to always make money; they buy back there own shares; or hedge w/gold which is what the small guys do. I don't do day trading because I never identified an error in short position trading, which is all day trading really is. It's not the way you trade it's how you read the markets.

    If you start with say 1k$ and you make some profits never use it in the beginning. Always use your first 1k$ till you made enough to now invest 2k and so on.
    Also set yourself a goal for the day/event. Do not get greedy. Say your goal is to make 100$ a day then just stop if you reached it. If you can hit this amount everytime or it getting quicker set a new goal and stop if you hit it.

    The number one way you messed up was what you said at the beginning, you didn't have a good plan and then secondarily you were basically risking too much each day. You should never risk more than about 10% (i'd say as a seasoned trader - but a new trader, 1-2%) of your overall account on any trade. Though I get what you were doing and honestly, most people do that exact thing, take the little bit of money they have, and trade on it each day. I started with 1,200 dollars and and in the beginning I would take a 100 dollar trade with a stop loss of 5 dollars (basically if i lost the trade i would come out with 95 dollars). It worked well for me and it really helped me get through the learning phase, because there is only so much paper trading can do and with small trades, i get all the experience and my bad trades were minimized and my good trades even if making 10 dollars or 15 dollars, were accounting for any losses i incurred before so for my case after 6 months i was break even and then i closed the year out with about 400 dollars profit which was amazing
    but very enjoyable video subbed.

    There's something interesting about just starting out and making solid gains. You have a different mind set initially; no biases. You're open to the market information, and not willing it to go in some direction, or another. You simply observe, and respond. After a few days of success, you think you've got a handle on it, and that's where you start making mistakes. That's the key to "beginner's luck", and I think the knack lies in getting back to that mental state when trading.

    One rule of mine is to set stop loses to prevent me losing gains from the previous day. If I get to the point where I started the day with 5k I made trades and now I have 6k the moment I come back down to 5k I’m done for the day also I typically shoot for a 3-10% depending on how comfortable I was with the day determines the finishing gains idc if I’m in a short squeeze idc about nothing my max gain every day is 10% I’m not looking for 11% idc about making 50% or even more than that, I’m done for the day after 10% greed has killed my vibe greed has blown up my account greed will have you watch 9k turn to 75k and then you watch it go all the way back down to 25k I’m not making dumb mistakes like those ever again.

      Question. I started a gofundme account to pay off my 80K mortgage within a year. I work a full time job and I cover my family's needs. I'm married with five kids who my wife and I homeschool. Am I wrong to ask for this? I mean I don't know if everyone realizes this but it would save me 40K in interest payments over the next 25 years and allow me to spend a few more precious hours teaching my little ones. It would also give my family financial independence which is something I want for everyone. Again, am I wrong for asking this?

    As a former trader on the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, I have to say this video was quite refreshing. It's nice to see honest content about how quickly things can (and probably will) go against you. One thing, and maybe I missed it, is I think you should show how much your commissions were. Yes, you lost 1000 bucks, but I would bet that you actually traded very close to neutral, and that your commissions were the 1000 bucks you lost. That's what usually happens to most people since they are essentially flipping a coin. I'd also think another video explaining your tax situation after trading is something that merits investigation. I think most young traders go into this not realizing that at worst they might get a surprising large tax bill, but at the very least are complicating their tax situation--you probably won't be able to file that 1040EZ (if that's still a thing) anymore. Anyway, you earned a like and a sub from me. Great video!

      @@DanielInskeep I go to a school called TradePro Academy online. They teach options, futures, trading psychology, and regular stocks too, and I personally really enjoy it. Great place to start. You know they're not a scam too bc they have a money-back guarantee if you don't like the school. You can also pay with PayPal. If you sign up with them and use their broker, you'll get discounted commissions, and you don't have to worry about the 25k rule. I'm not gonna sell you on it anymore bc I think the school speaks for itself, and I'm not being paid to advertise or something lol

    If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions and and look outward, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You most look outward if you wanna be successful in life.

      Success is grace and favor not hard work alone. I am successful today in the ways and manner I invested my daily earnings, and let's stop always looking inward.

      Fear is a total failure when you give up Ambitiousness; and Success is a game of dice, you throw your $coin while your investment decides your goal.

    Appreciate the honesty on this one. Just goes to show how careful you have to be and how quickly things can go south. I'd be interested to see you revisit this challenge once you've done more research and game planning.
