I hope you all enjoy this conversation I had with Matt. I especially enjoyed the parts about psychology and his emphasis on risk management. Take care!
Good video. As a fellow swing trader who is doing it almost full time now you can tell when someone is real and not BSing, open discussion of highly relevant topics and processes carried out by actual traders. Thanks; Regards
I love your interviews Richard, Matt story is exactly mine, I too was an architect switched to trading in 1998 and since then I'm a full time trader, since my first course when i saw my first chart I knew this was my passion and this is what I'm gonna do for the rest of my life, like falling in love from first sight.
love this one, self taught trader with a simple process. Matt also has a great voice for radio. Well done Richard, your content is very helpful to the traders out there.
Excellent interview, thank you! I especially like the end taking about risk management and how Matt considers it his "job". I bet that will stick with me
Hey Richard, I’ve always wondered how different swing traders manage risk. Like how traders position size in relation to how much they risk of their equity, etc. Really important. Thanks for asking your guests!
awesome interview! Matt laid down a wealth of knowledge in this one. You're a really good interviewer Richard, I appreciate how you let your guests ramble and really go into detail.
very good interview Richard! he was eager to teach/explain things like win/loss ratio, how he uses options, stop-loss, etc. very good. 1.he mentioned about ivanhoff, Dan Zanger. can you interview them if possible ? 2.can you make a 10-15 minute video on % wins/losers, size of wins/losers, what a trader should focus on, etc ? Thanks
After watching trader videos for 2 years now, I've figured out what's the final topic that all these traders need to address on these talks: please show us at least 2 years of bull market win-loss and at least 2 years of bear market win-loss. No more pre select charts on just two, three stocks. We need to see total performance.
Great interview Richard! I appreciate all the work you've done so far. I can't even describe how valuable your channel is. Would you mind showing us keeping a journal on excel some time? I am struggling to set up a good tracker.
How can I learn to swing trade? Everyone is talking about bits and pieces or just opinions but how do you actually do the swing trading, what time frame, how do you know where to enter, how long do the trades run,? I'm sure there's more
Richard, you mention a snippet of Mark’s book about cutting losses. There was a part about keeping your stop loss under 10% too. What do you think about that rule? I thought it’s too restrictive because you’ll trade very volatile stocks sometimes. Also it seems like he’s risking a large portion of his portfolio too because he doesn’t talk about equity risk.
Great interview, thanks! Richard you mentioned a trader around 40:00 who's playing range expansion but even at 52w lows - is that interview available or yet to come? Who's the trader? TIA
One was ivaylo ivanov. He’s been interviewed on chat with traders and some others. The other he mentioned was mark minervini. The info they provide are just pure gold. I’ll tell ya, for those of us that are serious and working hard to learn this stuff…it’s all there. I mean these guys are literally telling us how to be successful. We have to just keep going, keep learning…this CAN be learned.
Great interview Enjoy watching while walking dog Harper The yellow charts were great on IPhone Any chance of getting Guru David Ryan and or Charles Harris
bips or bps - Basis Points (1/100 of 1 percent)...He is stating 25 bps or 50 bps of Total Available Equity (TAE) is being risked by him on every trade (depending on market conditions and his own recent P&L performance)...So if the TAE is 100,000$, then 50 bps would be 500$ (0.5% of 100k) (and similarly 25 bps would be 250$)...Once the amount at risk for the trade is decided upon, say 50 bps and with 100k account, 500$, then one can use it for position and risk mgmt. IF the stop is say 2$ from your buy price, then if you want to risk only 500$, you should only buy 250 shares max

How can I learn to swing trade? Everyone is talking about bits and pieces or just opinions but how do you actually do the swing trading, what time frame, how do you know where to enter, how long do the trades run,? I'm sure there's more
An other excellent interview! Thanks

Richard, you mention a snippet of Mark’s book about cutting losses. There was a part about keeping your stop loss under 10% too. What do you think about that rule? I thought it’s too restrictive because you’ll trade very volatile stocks sometimes. Also it seems like he’s risking a large portion of his portfolio too because he doesn’t talk about equity risk.
The 10% was just an example mark used in his book, I keep my losses below 3.5% on average and I bet Mark does as well
Thank you!
Great interview, thanks! Richard you mentioned a trader around 40:00 who's playing range expansion but even at 52w lows - is that interview available or yet to come? Who's the trader? TIA
Thats Pradeep Bonde, great trader, its up on my channel

What's the name of the 3rd set of swing trading books which Matt referenced?
Hey there i am waiting for @Qullamaggie

How did he do in 2022 when the market “ crashed.”
Bring Qullamaggie after New Year...Happy Trading..
Interesting stuff
Thanks!
lol cackalate 😁 I too like pronouncing calculate this way
Noob question - What does Matt mean by bits? 25 bits, 50 bits. Etc.
bips or bps - Basis Points (1/100 of 1 percent)...He is stating 25 bps or 50 bps of Total Available Equity (TAE) is being risked by him on every trade (depending on market conditions and his own recent P&L performance)...So if the TAE is 100,000$, then 50 bps would be 500$ (0.5% of 100k) (and similarly 25 bps would be 250$)...Once the amount at risk for the trade is decided upon, say 50 bps and with 100k account, 500$, then one can use it for position and risk mgmt. IF the stop is say 2$ from your buy price, then if you want to risk only 500$, you should only buy 250 shares max
How old is Matt? Acts like he is Rick rule age and maybe 35-40? lol
Thanks
