Ultimate Beginner's Day Trading Guide 2025: Mindset to Strategy

Welcome to the beginners's complete day trading tutorial for 2025. If you guys are brand new to day trading or if you

guys are just getting into day trading, this video is going to be for you guys because this is going to be my longest,

biggest, and honestly just like full compiled thoughts on how to start day trading in 2025. It's going to give you

guys every single thing that you guys need to know. It's going to take literally hours worth of content that

I've produced and given out to you guys throughout the years of me being online teaching you guys how to day trade and

putting it all in one place so that you guys can get started and understand day trading from A to Z. If you guys don't

know me, my name is Tyler. Everybody online knows me as TJR. And I've been full-time day trading for the past

couple years now. And I've been able to change my life completely. Literally did a full 180 of my own life thanks to day

trading. And I've helped others do the same. literally thousands of other people through free content such as this

video that you guys are watching right now or through personal mentorship. But that's besides the point. In this guide,

I'm going to be breaking down literally everything when it comes to mindset, risk management, strategy, understanding

confluences, understanding where price wants to go at certain times, understanding why the chart is moving at

certain times, understanding where price wants to go. All of these things that are going to help you guys make money

from the markets. And all of this stuff took me countless hours of trial and error. And it kind of led to this one

big culmination of all of these videos that I've put out online. Every single video that I put out online is to help

you guys become a better day trader. Whether it's mistakes that I've made in the past, whether it's videos that I

wish I had as an unprofitable trader back when I was starting. And the goal with this video is to put it all in one

place so that you guys can just have this fast track to profitability so that you guys don't have to look anywhere

else when it comes to finding any sort of day trading education. This is essentially just going to be your guys's

free course, free guide to becoming a profitable day trader in 2025. And that's exactly why the majority of

traders fail. You guys always hear the statistic of day trading is too hard. Day trading doesn't work. And that's not

the case. It's the majority of day traders actually end up giving up. They don't end up failing. Failing comes with

any new skill. Every time I attempted to take my first trade or a couple first trades, I sucked at it. Just like any

other skill, if you try and pick up a basketball for the first time, you're going to suck. Every skill takes trial

and error just like day trading does. And that's where a lot of people get caught up. They think that they're going

to get rich tomorrow. They think that they're going to get rich within the next month. But that's not the case. And

something that sucks with day trading and honestly all these other side hustles within the online money space is

that it's very difficult to find all the right information and compile it into one single video or just put it into a

playlist for you guys to be able to learn what you guys are supposed to and tune out all the noise and all the BS

that's online because there's a lot of it that's circulating the web and you guys can get super confused. You guys

can mix up strategies. You guys can mix up confluences and in turn it takes you guys a lot longer to be able to turn

profitable. So, the goal with this video is to put everything, all the good information in one video that you guys

can just press play and watch it start to finish and have all the education necessary for you guys to turn

profitable. And that is my goal with this video, just putting everything in one place for you guys. I'm so excited

for this video because it's going to be an absolute banger. I'm taking every little piece of knowledge that I've

dropped throughout the years of me being on YouTube and just putting it in one place. And it's literally just going to

be a full a toz guide on how you guys can crush day trading going into 2025. So, before we get into these first

couple videos that we are going to compile for you guys to help understand what day trading really is, I need to

readjust what your guys' headsp space is when you guys are going into learning how to day trade. Because a lot of

people kind of misconrue what they think day trading is. They think that they're going to jump right into it and they're

just instantly going to make money. That is not the case. Just like how I was explaining before, day trading is a

skill. Just like anything else, you guys are going to suck at it at first and you guys are going to be really horrible at

it at first. But that's okay. As long as we are making these mistakes and then learning from them, never making those

mistakes again. That's how we're going to grow. So, I don't want you guys to come into this just thinking, "Holy

[ __ ] this is going to turn me profitable today once I grind through however long this is going to be, like

15 hours or 20 hours worth of content." But you guys need to keep in mind that all of the education within here is

going to help you guys stay on the right path towards profitability. And the problem with a lot of these other day

trading gurus online or with all these other day trading videos online is they're saying like, "Hey, this one

strategy will turn you profitable in 5 minutes." And then you guys go and watch that video and then you're like, "Okay,

cool. Let me go apply this." And then you guys lose your first [ __ ] 10 trades and you're like, "God damn it.

Why didn't I turn profitable in 5 minutes like the video said I was going to?" So, I need to reshift you guys'

headsp space and help you guys understand what day trading really is, how we can actually get good at the

skill and put you guys in the correct headsp space when you guys are going into this education. So, first of all,

what is the goal with trading? It's not to make money. Every single one of you guys probably thinking, "Oh, day

trading is to make money." No, day trading is about finding and being able to get into the marketplace and

accurately predict with a high probability on a daily basis where price wants to go. So again, let's repeat

that. What is day trading? Day trading is getting into the markets on a daily basis and being able to accurately

predict with a high probability where price wants to go. And the awesome side effect of that is making money. Now, if

that's our main goal, there's two sides of this. Goal one, make money with trading. That is going to lead you guys

to take actions to get results that you guys are not going to like, which is losing a whole bunch of money. Because

if you guys get into the market every single day and just think, how can I make money? You're going to be placing

trade after trade after trade after trade and you guys are going to end up losing money. versus if you guys go into

the markets with the headsp space of how can I predict where price wants to go using the confluences and using the

strategy and using the headsp space and using the risk management that I'm going to teach you guys in this video then

that changes the game a little bit where instead of us thinking I want to make money right now you are thinking how can

I predict with a high probability where price wants to go today it's going to help you guys avoid taking trades that

you guys shouldn't be taking and it's also going to encourage you guys to be taking trades that you guys should be

taking and then in turn what is that going to lead us to the awesome side effect of being able to predict price

action which is money. It's just like any other skill. But with trading, there's a super strong correlation with

money where it's like you are risking money on this trade and you are either going to make money or lose money. We

need to detach ourselves from that and instead be thinking when we get into the markets, we are not trying to make

money. We are just trying to predict where price wants to go. And by thinking like that, it's going to help us stay

away from taking trades that we shouldn't be taking and it's going to encourage us to take trades that we

should be taking. And on top of that, it's going to help us get over these speed bumps that we are going to face.

Again, like I was saying, this isn't going to be help you guys get rich quick in one day or one week or one month.

This is going to be a long time in order to grow and build this skill of day trading. And hopefully you guys can

understand that. I'm not going to get on here and BS you guys and say that you guys are going to be able to get rich

right after this video. That's not the case, okay? I'm going to keep it real with you guys. You guys are going to

have to digest all this content and then from there apply it, make mistakes, learn from those mistakes and that's how

you guys are going to grow as a trader and that's how you guys are going to be able to accurately predict price action

with higher probability instead of just thinking I want to make money today. There's no room for growth in that

because it's either make money or lose money. So if you're just getting into the market saying I want to make money

or getting into trading saying I want to make money, you're in it for the wrong reasons because what is the core of day

trading? It's predicting where price wants to go. Like I was saying before, that's going to help us avoid a lot of

these early beginner mistakes that a lot of you guys are going to face. So, in order to get good at trading, we need to

instantly shift that in our head. And that's what I'm going to cover in all of these videos that we're just going to

dump you guys straight into to be able to shift your guys' headsp space from I want to make money with trading and

instead get into how can I predict price action consistently on a daily basis with a high probability. And then the

side effect of that is money. It's just like any other skill. If I want to make a lot of money as a basketball player,

what do I have to be good at? I have to be good at putting the ball in the hoop. I have to be good at dribbling. I have

to be good at passing. If you want to make money as a basketball player, you don't think, "How can I make more money

playing basketball?" You think, "How can I get better at basketball?" And then in turn, what's the side effect of that?

You make more money. So, it's the same thing with trading. So, we need to detach ourselves from thinking trading

is about making money. No, trading is about getting good at trading. Okay? And in turn, just like any other skill, once

you get good at a skill, there's a high and awesome reward at the end of the [ __ ] rainbow. Okay? And hopefully

this video is going to help you guys get to where you guys want to go. So, keep that in mind when we go into all of

these videos. This is what your guys' headspace should be when you guys are getting into these first initial videos

that I'm going to dump on you guys. So, with that being said, let's jump right into it. This is kind of going to be

like a primer to help you guys get your mind right and help you guys understand what it takes to become a profitable

trader before we can even get into any sort of education because a lot of you guys are going to come into this

thinking education is what I need. I I just need to learn more. I need to learn the strategy. I need to learn this. I

need to learn that. And it's not the case. Strategy is is honestly like far from the determining factor of you guys

being profitable or not. And the real determining factor is going to be time and consistency in the way that you act,

in the way that you operate. So what I kind of like to talk about is um skills. We can treat trading as a skill where I

love using this analogy. If you tell a basketball player or sit sit someone who's never played basketball down uh

before and tell them, you know, every single day for a month long, they have to watch an hourong video of basketball

training videos. So, they don't get a basketball, they just have to sit down and they just watch these training

videos going over the basics, dribbling a ball, shooting a ball, and you know, between the legs, behind the back,

layup, jump shot, three-pointer, whatever, right? And then at the end of that month, you give them a ball and you

have them play basketball, right? They're going to be at a certain level after watching those videos. And then on

the contrary, if you give just another person who's never played basketball in their entire life, give them a ball and

say, "Look, you know, you have an entire month and you have a single hour every single day and you just have to figure

this out. Figure it out." You know, they've never played basketball. They don't know how it works, but they have

to figure it out. all they know is the rules and you know what they're supposed to do. Odds are the person that has the

basketball and is able to practice and and just learn from mistakes over and over again is going to be a in a lot

better position than the person who just sat on their ass watching basketball skill videos.

Which now leads me to how this correlates to trading. It's the same thing. It's the same thing as a skill

where if we sit down a trader and we say, "Hey, look, watch this monthlong, watch this month-long series or, you

know, this literally year-long series of me um teaching you guys how to trade concepts on trading. And if you guys

don't apply it, if you guys don't practice it, you guys won't get anywhere. If you guys just watch it and

like think that you're learning stuff by watching it and then like the next day you just like boom try and apply it and

instantly expect success, you're not going to be successful. Versus if you guys were to just sit your ass down, sit

in front of the chart and practice and drill. You know, maybe you guys don't even nec like again let's apply this to

trading. Let's say we sit someone down and say, "Hey, just watch again for a month. You have an hour each day and you

guys are going to watch trading videos and then you know boom, see how they see how they act in the market and then we

have another person who's never done trading in their entire life and the person just sits them down and says

figure it out. You have an hour each day for a month long. I guarantee you without a doubt in my mind that the

person who who has to actually be trading live trading is going to be a better trader because they're going to

start seeing patterns, repetitions within the market, they're going to fail and they are going to learn from it. So

what happens when we can combine the two? What happens when we can watch videos that are helpful that teach us

skills that can hopefully get us over some of those beginner mistakes, some of those beginner failures that we have?

And then along with drilling it and learning we are going to be a great trader. Similarly with the basketball

analogy if we give them the opportunity to sit down during that month and watch an hourong of tutorial v videos on

beginner videos of people playing basketball and then right after that they get an hour to practice it and to

drill it. They are going to be a lot better than those two people who only had one of each. And it's the same thing

with trading. Okay? Okay. So, if I teach you guys a a strategy or if I teach you guys concepts or if I teach you guys or

if I give you guys a lesson, it's not as simple as just sitting down and digesting the YouTube video and writing

notes on it because that's just step one. Step two is actually taking action and practicing it and repeating it. And

I feel like that's what that's this hole that people get sucked into is this YouTube

just black hole of information where they sit down and they watch every single two billion ICT videos and they

never end up applying it. And the only time that they try and apply it is when market opens and they only get like one

shot because they hear TJR or they hear ICT say, "Hey, only take one to two trades, one to two trades a day." And

then it's like, wow. So, we're consuming way more than we're practicing. And that's the biggest issue. We need to be

practicing almost equally with consuming. And then we get to the point where we've consumed everything that we

need possible because same thing with same thing with trading and basketball. Okay? If we think about basketball, the

best basketball players in the world, the skills that they have, they're just really good at the basics. We think, you

know, what makes Stephen Curry one of the best players in the world? He's just really insanely good at shooting the

basketball. If if we compare Stephen Curry to one of the Globe Trotters, the Globe Trotters are arguably

have better, more crazy skills, but they're not as good at shooting as Stephen Curry. It's the same thing. I've

heard this analogy before, as being healthy. If you want to get healthy, stop trying to look in the 1%s and look

at the 99%. If you want to get healthy, that special running shoe isn't going to make you healthier. That little Whoop

bracelet on your wrist that tracks your heart rate, that tra that tracks everything isn't going to make you

healthier. What's going to make you healthier? Four things: sleep, working out, hydration,

and eating healthy. Those four things. If you do those four things really, really well, you're going to be one of

the healthiest people ever. And it's the same exact thing with trading. So, if you guys can just understand the basics,

which is what I'm going to be teaching you guys here, and honestly, like throughout all of this, I'm going to be

teaching you guys everything. But it's going to get to the point where you guys, again, like I was saying in the

first video, where you guys can kind of pull away and be like, "Look, I think I have everything possible. I think I have

everything that I need where you guys have to step away and then just practice and practice and practice and fail over

and over and over and over again. Another analogy that I like to use is a construction worker, a really bad

construction worker versus a really good construction worker. If we give the really bad construction worker a toolbox

and blueprints and all the tools necessary to build a house and it's their first time building a house ever

in their entire life, they're going to build a really shitty house. Versus if you give a really good construction

worker who's built who's built millions of houses before that same toolbox those same tools and the same blueprint,

they're going to build that house much better than that construction than that shitty construction worker. And the only

difference is repetition. So if we think about that shitty construction worker, that first house that they build,

it's going to be really bad and they're going to be like, "Man, that was horrible. There's a bunch of things that

I can work on and I can identify the things that I can work on. Maybe I sit down and I watch the really good

construction worker and see, okay, what did he do here? What did he do here? Okay, got it. Got it. Got it. Boom.

Build a second house. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. It's a little bit better than the first house, but it still

sucks. And then he builds five houses and they're all and they continuously get better than that first house house

that he built. And then he builds a thousand houses and there and that thousandth house is going to be so much

better than the first house that he built. And then the 10,000th house is going to be so much better than that

thousandth h house that he's built. So it's not the tools that are the issue. It's not the concepts in trading that's

the issue. It's not the strategy in trading that's the issue. It's the repetition and it's the

practice that's the issue. It's the time that's the issue. You guys are lacking time and you guys are lacking repetition

within the market and that's your biggest issue. That's it. This video is going to be

rather short because I need you guys to understand this concept because I'm going to continue trying to pro provide

value because right now I'm a good construction worker and you guys are bad construction workers, right? You guys

are unprofitable. If you guys are watching this, you guys have never traded before. You guys are on your

first house. I'm going to lay out tools for you guys. I'm going to give you guys your toolbox and then I'm going to give

you guys your blueprint through strategy, through confluence. But I can only give you guys those pieces. I can't

force you guys to build your houses. You guys have to take it upon yourself to build your houses. You guys have to take

it upon yourself day in and day out depending on how much time you guys have within every single day and how how how

bad you guys want it to see how many houses you guys can build. So let's say again we take the super we take two

people who have never built a house in their entire life and we give them the same toolbox and the same blueprint and

the same tools necessary to build a house. And the first bad construction worker builds one house every single

day. Will he eventually get to that good construction worker spot. Will he eventually get there? Yes. Okay. His

timeline is going to be however long. Let's say let's say for him to be a good construction worker, it's going to take

10 years for him to be able to perfectly make houses over and over and over again. And there's always going to be

room for improvement for him. Now, let's say we have that second construction worker and we give him the same tools,

the same toolbox, the same blueprint, the same materials, but he makes five houses a day. He is going to have way

more time building houses. He's going to have way more repetitions. He's going to have way more experience. He's going to

have way more mistakes than the person who just builds one house a day. So, by the time that 5-year period is up, the

person who built five houses a day compared to the person that built one house a day is going to be so much

better. But again, with trading, this is why it's difficult with building a house. Are they leaving any of their

tools out? Are they go straying from the blueprint? No. If they stray from the blueprint, they'll never be good at

building houses. If I or if we go back to that construction worker example, if we take a shitty, let's add a third one

to the mix. That third construction worker, he has the same tools, he has the same blueprints, he has the same

materials as those other two guys, and he makes 10 houses a day, but he leaves out pieces of the blueprints every

single time he builds a house. Every single time he builds a house, he builds it differently in the wrong way, and he

doesn't apply and doesn't use all the tools necessary. By the end of that five fiveyear period, that guy will will be

in a worse position than the person who built one house every single day for 5 years consistently doing it the right

way. He will also be so much farther behind the person who built five houses a day correctly for 5 years straight.

So, how can we apply this to trading? A lot of you guys who literally know everything necessary

in order to turn profitable are not profitable. And why is that the case? Because you're not doing what you're

supposed to. You're not following the blueprint. You're not following your trading plan. You're not following your

strategy. You're acting on emotion. You're you're trading not based on confluences. You're not trading the same

every single day. You're switching your strategy every single day. It's the same thing. Imagine if we throw another

construction worker into the mix. We have four construction workers now. But the fourth construction worker, we give

him different tools and different blueprints every single month. That's what you guys are doing with your

trading strategy. You guys are implementing a new strategy every single month and you're pretty much putting

yourselves back to square one. that person if he gets a new blueprint and new toolboxes and new materials every

single month, he will be nowhere near again where that person who did five houses

the perfect the right way, consistently for 5 years. He won't be near them. He won't be near the person who built one

house consistently, correctly for 5 years straight. And he'll probably be on that equal level of the person who

skipped out on on on steps in the blueprint and somebody who who didn't use the tools necessary. So, we have to

understand how we're acting within the market. We have to act with discipline and we have to act with consistency. And

those are probably two of the biggest lessons and two of the hardest things to learn within trading. So, before I

wanted to get into any sort of tools or strategy or concepts, I need you guys to circle back to this

video every time you guys feel yourself straying away. Because as you guys start straying away,

you guys are giving your guys you guys are literally starting new. You guys are setting yourselves back to square one by

watching a new strategy, by implementing a new thing that you guys saw on YouTube versus if you guys take just what you

guys know will turn you profitable, the basics, just like how Steph Curry is the best shooter in the world. Why? Because

he shot over and over and over and over and over again. And he's really good at that one simple thing. He's also really

good at other simple things. He's really good at dribbling the ball. Is Steph Curry one of the best basketball players

in the world because he's good at a triple behind the back spin move reverse layup? No. So advanced. He doesn't need

that. He needs the basics. It's the basics that make you good. So that's my issue with a lot of these traders out

here because they keep throwing different strategies at you guys and that's not what I want to do. What I

want to do with it with this is not even necessarily give you guys a strategy. is just to lay out the tools and the

blueprint and the materials necessary for you guys to learn how to build a house on your own, to learn how to

become a profitable day trader on your own. Because again, similarly with those construction workers, with those NBA

players, Stephen Curry is really good at shooting the ball. Kyrie Irving is really good at dribbling. They're both

really great players in the NBA, but their skills are on two different basic things. It's the same thing in trading.

If you guys suck at a concept, you know, maybe you guys can take time out of your day to drill it, to get better at it,

just like a basketball player who's bad at dribbling, but really good at shooting.

Okay, but what would they want to do while they are still bad at that skill? They're going to want to utilize their

good skills. So for me, if I'm really good at executing on a single concept, why

should I come through and try and add a new concept and add a new thing, add a new tool, add a new material that I've

never used before, that I don't understand completely, that I'm really bad at, and try and build a house with

it, try and make it a part of my game, try and make it a part of my strategy. It doesn't make any sense. You have to

utilize what you're good at. And that's what trading is. I'm going to give you guys concepts and I'm going to give you

guys tools in order to become a profitable trader, but you guys are going to be good or better at certain

tools than everybody else. Okay? There are some things that are going to click in your head that make sense to you. You

have to use what makes sense to you because if it doesn't make sense to you and if it doesn't work for you, don't

use it at all because it's not helping you. And maybe you do want to get good at it because you know it's a

fundamental and you know it's necessary to be a really good trader. Just like understanding what a candlestick is,

like the open and the close. That's a really basic thing. If we can understand that, we have to understand that to be

good at trading. And maybe it takes longer for you to understand that. So, what are you going to do? You're going

to drill it in silence. And I know I was just talking about that with a beginner concept, but we need to think about that

with our strategy and with how we take trades. Because if I introduce order blocks and it really makes sense to your

friend Jeremy, but it makes no sense to you and Jeremy's hitting a thousand winning trades on it every single day,

day in and day out, and you're like, I want to be like Jeremy or I want to be like TJR who's trading this certain way,

but you don't understand how it works or it doesn't make sense to you, you won't be a good trader. And instead, if you're

really good at entering off of fair value gaps or spotting a liquidity sweep and that's what works for you, it

wouldn't make sense for you guys to try and only enter off of order blocks if you guys know liquidity is your forte.

You guys have to do what's best for you and what makes sense for you and what you're best at. And then if you want to

add something new to the mix, don't add it in live trading scenarios. Add it in back testing. add it in private until

you get so good at it where it's literally so overwhelmingly obvious that you need to add it to your to your

arsenal to your toolbox and then you'll have another tool that you're really good with and then that's what will make

you a good trader. So, I'm going to end this video here and hopefully that changed your perspective on trading and

maybe you know you you guys are a five-year long trader and this is was the missing piece for you and you guys

can be done off of this because a lot of you guys so many of you guys you guys have already gone through my boot camp.

You guys have already you guys already understand the fundamentals of trading and I'm going to start with the

fundamentals. I'm going to start explaining candlesticks. A lot of you guys already understand that. A lot of

you guys are pros with that already. A lot of you guys really understand strategy. You guys understand you guys

literally have the tool. You guys already have the toolbox, the tools, the materials and the blueprints in front of

you and you guys just haven't been practicing. You guys have just been watching. You guys have just been

consuming. Or you guys have been consuming and not practicing enough. Or in some people's case where you guys are

full-on beginners, you guys haven't consumed at all. And you guys haven't practiced at all. by putting you guys

your you guys' head in the right spot, by understanding that trading is a skill and teaching you guys how skills are

made. It's by consistently doing the same thing over and over and over again until you get really good at it. So,

with that knowledge, I will see you guys in the next video where we can start adding tools to our toolbox. A lot of

times you guys just have problem solving issues. Ever thought of that? You guys need to work on your problem solving

skills. And for whatever reason, I've gotten really good at problem solving. I had this seventh grade teacher in

computer science and we had a problem-solving checklist and it was pretty much so he didn't have to answer

dumbass questions. What the checklist was was like literally just go down all of this checklist before you even ask

him a question. It's like check all plugs and connections. Check if the Wi-Fi is good. Restart it. Do this. Turn

the power off. Turn the power back on. Unplug it. Plug it back in. And then like it was just this this like

sevenstep list that was a problem-solving list. And more often than not, you would go through that list

and you would never have to ask him a question ever. Obviously, there's more problems to solve than just like, oh,

the computer's not working in like computer science class in seventh grade, but it's pretty similar where it's like

if you guys can really work on your problem solving skills, then you'll be able to solve problems. Um, but anyways,

my mastermind student asked me a question. Said, "Hey, what are good psychology books?" And I said, "This is

a good psychology book. I wrote it myself and I opened up a text box and wrote it down." And it goes like this.

Learn a strategy. Perfect. I'm going to teach you a strategy. Don't ever change it. Don't change it. Don't change it.

I'm going to strangle you if you change it. Go back to the construction worker example. Literally, I don't know how

many times I'm going to have to yell at you for you guys not to change it because you guys are going to change it

every other day because you're like, "Training's not working." Yeah, cuz you [ __ ] just learned it.

Understand that good things take time. You're not going to get rich quick from this ever, ever in your entire life. And

if you think that's how it is, guess what? You're going to die unhappy because your life's going to suck dick.

Okay? Good things take time. Learn a strategy. Don't [ __ ] change it.

Do it forever. Trade it forever until you get good at it.

Manage your risk. Meaning, you know, make it so you can live to

trade another day. Don't be a dumbass. That can be applied to all of you. Don't overtrade.

Don't overlever. Probably one of the biggest ones here, circling back to never changing your

strategy. Don't have multiple mentors. I was in my mastermind class again today explaining

order blocks, how I mark them out, how I trade order blocks, how order blocks work for me. These people, they pay me a

certain amount of money to teach them how I trade. And somebody goes in there, TJR,

this guy on YouTube, Mark, I'm Who? Is he me? No. You literally paid me money to teach you how I trade and

you're saying this person I don't give a [ __ ] I don't give a [ __ ]

Because guess what? The second you say, "Well, the you're [ __ ] you screwed up, bro. You're already changing [ __ ]

Make it as simple as possible." Have one single mentor. If your mentor is a good trader and knows how to trade and has a

good strategy that works for them, that makes them profitable, guess what? If you use that strategy, if

it makes sense for you, if it works for you, and you continue to trade at it, and you get good at it,

then it'll work for you, too. It's awesome how that [ __ ] works. But the second you guys start over

complicating it, say, "Well, TJ, well, TJR trades marks out order blocks. You guys are so annoying. You guys over

complicate trading for no reason, bro. for no reason at all. You guys are just overthinkers and underdoers.

Wow, that was a [ __ ] awesome quote. You guys are overthinkers and underdoers. You guys think way too

[ __ ] much and don't do [ __ ] ever in your entire life, bro. So, stop saying like

TJR, you mark out order block like this, but this one guy on Twitter who has 1,000 followers said he does it like

this and it works for him. Then, then guess what? if it works for him and you want to trade like him, bet. Go do it

with him. But the second you start [ __ ] flipping [ __ ] the second you start

marking out order blocks like that person does and then you're trying to use my strategy where I mark out mark

out order order blocks differently and oh wait, now you're trying to pull in support and resistance, throw that [ __ ]

into TJR's strategy and I don't even use that [ __ ] either. And then you say, "Oh no, I'm going to throw on some Ballinger

bands." Next thing you know, you don't have a strategy that [ __ ] works. Stop having multiple mentors. Have one single

mentor. Have one single person that you learn trading from. Whether that's me, whether that's anybody, I don't I don't

care. Choose one singular person and learn from them. It's going to confuse you guys way too much. It's going to

cause you guys to hip hop from strategies. It's going to cause you guys to get information overload and start

thinking, "Oh, well, price price came down, bounced off a support, but wait, TJR said this is a fair value gap, but

wait, ICT said this is a PD array, but wait, there's a like, shut up, bro. Like, shut up.

Your brain is going [ __ ] berserk. tell it to shut up because if you look at how I present

trading, I literally it's like a stepbystep playbook. It's like this happens, then

this happens, then this happens, and you press buy or sell, and you take your hands, you shove them into your ass, and

you don't do anything until stop-loss or take profits get hit. And oh, would you look at that? The next

chapter in TJR's trading psychology book is don't overthink. I didn't even read that far. Don't

overthink. You guys sit down. This is what you guys do, bro. And for all beginners watching this,

remember this video because this is going to be you guys when I start introducing concepts. Don't do what I'm

about to do and it will benefit you so much. Well, on the weekly time frame, we got a breaker structure. Oh, wait. Um,

okay. So, this is an order block right here. And then we tapped into this. But then

if we go into the daily, we're in an uptrend right here. And then there's a fair value gap right

here. So, we're bullish right here, but bearish right here. And then the equilibrium, it came in here. And then,

and then we had a higher high, higher low, but then we broke structure right here. So, I thought we should have gone

down, and then we broke structure again, and then we actually went down, but then we we liquidity sweeped and then broke

structure again. And then we're ready. This is what I want you guys to do.

Just like if you guys could do me a favor, if you guys are actually passionate about trading and and if you

guys want to learn from me, if my concepts make sense to you, if the way that I trade makes sense to

you, if you guys just like me as a mentor because I can teach [ __ ] [ __ ] simply to you guys,

stop overthinking and just forget everything that you've ever ever ever ever, ever, ever in your

entire life learned about trading? And you know what's crazy? I went into the mastermind the very first lesson. I was

like, yo, literally take everything that you've learned from trading besides the basics like what a candlestick is and

what an uptrend is and what a high or what a low is and throw it out the window.

And it's crazy because we when we were talking about [ __ ] that you would think is like a basic ass thing

like literally what a high and low is these pe like that guys my mastermind's hardest subject to understand

was how to identify highs and lows in the market, bro. And I And this is as simp and this is as

simple as I put it. I'll give I I'm going to teach you guys the same exact way that I taught them. Not like this is

just a a shortened version of it because for them it took a full hour to get this.

A high is a two candlestick pattern. A move up, then a move down. A green candle, then a red candle. A low is a

two candlestick pattern. A move down then a move up. A red candle then a green candle. That's it. That's it.

That's it. That's it. You would think that it would have ended there.

There were questions for about 30 minutes. Let me try and find the example that

somebody used. This is This was it. Again, I I know if you're new here, if you're just getting into trading, trust

me, this will be beneficial for you. I know you don't quite understand what I'm talking about right now, but like trust

me, we have to just throw out the garbage. We have to stop overthinking because if we can stop overthinking and

just take it for what the information is and stop thinking this is some [ __ ] hard ass impossible weird that you have

to just wrap your brain around like it turns out it's pretty easy. This is what they said. I remember what

did I say? A high consists of a move up and a move down. It's a two candlestick pattern. Two candles. What do the two

candles have to be? Green then red for a high. The guy said, "Well, what about this? Is

this the high right here? Why isn't this the high? Do you see a a a down candle following

it? It literally took like 10 plus minutes to explain that this is the high. And the awesome

thing is is like if he was able if if we were able to like identify that money would have been made on this day.

I made money on this day. It's [ __ ] like that where it's like you guys are just over complicating this for

no reason. For no reason at all. Stop over complicating it. The last line on the

book, I know I just deleted it or it might be still be on here. I think I deleted it. But the last chapter in the

book was just execute. My psychology can be broken down like

this. Do what you're supposed to do and don't do what you're supposed what you're not supposed to do.

Again, it's literally as easy as that. What are you not supposed to do in trading?

You're not supposed to overtrade. You're not supposed to overlever. And if you're doing either of those, you have an issue

bigger than trading. You just have a life issue in general. That means that if you tried to stop any

of your bad habits right now in life, you wouldn't be able to. Which means you have no hope in trading whatsoever. Ever

in your entire life. Like ever. If you can't if if it's so if it's literally that

hard for you where if you truly want to become a full-time day trader, it should be so easy to just be like don't

overtrade, don't overleverage and execute on the strategy and just let time do its thing and you will get good.

It literally could be I could end the trading transformation here and you guys could use grab a strategy from the

internet and get going, get started with it. The problem is some of you guys just must not want this [ __ ] enough because

if you wanted it it enough, you would know exactly what you're supposed to do and you would do it and you would know

exactly what you're not supposed to do and you wouldn't do it. So then it comes to an issue of like

what are you even doing this for? Are you doing this just like are you doing this because you it's you put in your

head that trading is a get-rich quick scheme because trading is not a get-rich quick

scheme. Anybody that says it is is a [ __ ] idiot. Because get-richqu schemes, there's no

such thing as a get-richqu scheme unless somebody comes to you, which I'm not doing, and says, "This will change.

You can make like $100,000 from this in a month." And you believing it and then you trying

to do it and lose all your money doing it. That's what a get-richqu scheme is. I'm telling you guys right now that

trading is a skill and it's not a get-richqu type of thing. And I told you before it's going to take

a long time to get good at this skill. So if you truly want it bad enough, you will literally start today doing the

[ __ ] that you are supposed to and stop doing the [ __ ] that you're not supposed to.

And it re it like it really shouldn't take more than that for like it shouldn't take

more from me than that because if if you're unable to do that, you don't want to be a trader.

Like simple as that. Or you don't want it bad enough cuz if you wanted it bad enough, you

would have been doing the [ __ ] that you were supposed to do and you wouldn't be doing the [ __ ] that you're not supposed

to. It's as simple as that. And some people genuinely just don't want it bad enough. So, I'm glad that I made this

video today. This can be kind of like our filter of who wants to be good at trading.

And the question that I'll leave you guys with this with this video, hold on, Chug Jug.

The question that I want to leave you guys with is why do you want to trade? Do you want to trade for the money that

you see on the internet that comes from trading? Or do you want to trade because you genuinely enjoy being able to come

into the markets day in and day out and predict where where price wants to go. If you said the first answer,

thank you for coming to my trading transformation. Take everything that you applied and apply it to another business

that you genuinely enjoy. And I just saved you thousands of dollars on courses, on live accounts, on funded

accounts, on Discords, which you guys shouldn't be joining anyway, on signals, which are useless.

I saved you a bunch of money. You're welcome. Because if you sit down on the chart and

if you look at the chart in the morning and think I cannot wait to make money today,

you are doing something wrong. Versus if you come into trading and you sit down and you're genuinely excited

because you cannot wait to be able to predict where price wants to go or you just love being able to be I'm like look

bro I'm a [ __ ] narcissist. I'm I'm a hotthead. I'm stubborn. I love being right.

And you know what the best thing is? Being right in a market where everybody else is wrong.

And that's why I love trading. Literally today or the other day, I talked about this Bitcoin chart.

Everybody on crypto in crypto Twitter was bearish within this area. I think it's going to go lower. 30K. 30K. I

said, "No, I expect dick-sized candles within the next one to three weeks." Said that at that green line.

Boom. That is what makes me happy. And my bank account, my crypto wallet

is just part of that because you guys can only imagine the money that I made from that move. But

that's not what makes me happy. Again, it's not I love being right.

I love it. It's the best feeling in the world to me. [ __ ] love being right and I love helping people. Let that kind

of sit with you for a bit before you guys go on to actually start learning concepts. Because if you start learning

concepts and you're like, "This is boring. I don't like this. This is lame."

Choose a different business. The best business that you can be in is a business that you can work on forever.

And and what can you work on forever? Something that you love. Because work won't feel like work. It'll feel like

fun. When I was learning trading and when I am trading, I'm genuinely having fun.

When I'm making these YouTube videos teaching you guys, I'm genuinely having fun. I'm enjoying myself. It's awesome.

I love it. And And I can work I can do this forever. I can literally I It's crazy,

bro. I can do this [ __ ] forever. Forever, bro. I love it. It's awesome. Like, that's what you guys don't

understand. I love this. I love this. I love teaching. I love teaching people about this. It's like

two passions in one. It's awesome. I'm I got a Kimbo passions, bro. And some of you guys, trading is just

not your passion. And just get lost, bro. You're welcome. I saved you a bunch of money. And I swear I swear some fe

some people are going to get through this and be like, "He doesn't know what he's talking about. I got to make a

million dollars. And then like months from now, you guys are going to be thinking back to this video and being

like, damn, I should have listened to to that one dude, TJR Trades. Because the only way you're going to be

really good at something and make a ton of money from something is if you love doing it, bro. Swear. That's the only

That's the only way. The only way that you're going to make ridiculous amounts of money. Money that you can't even

imagine. money. Money where it's just like everywhere is not by pursuing money itself. It's by

pursuing your passion. Because how do you make money? You work. And if you love your work,

you'll be able to work forever and you'll be able to make insane amounts of money. So sit with that. Drop in the

comments if you guys genuinely like are like me and you just love being right. Love being able to predict where price

wants to go day in and day out. If that's you, awesome. We're nerds. We're nerds together, bro. Love it. If that's

not you, dip out. No hard feelings. I'm glad that I could help you. Akimbo Passions. Anyways, I appreciate you

guys. I'll catch you guys in the next one. Peace out. I wish there was like a way for us to touch lips after these.

sucks. Focus. Okay. So, what I want to talk to you guys about today, I want to talk about how trading can be really

easy if you just simplify it. And I know I talked about that a little bit in the videos at the very beginning of this

whole thing, but I'm just going to continuously hammer home the mindset that you have to be in when

you get into trading and the things that you have to be doing when you're getting into trading and the things that you

should not be doing. Okay? Because again, successful people, it's not necessarily what they do that makes them

successful. It's what they don't do that makes them successful. Because I've even seen it within my mastermind where I

grilled them for like the first week, everything, psychology, just rewire their brain and they were like, "Boom,

we got it." And I was super hyped. I was like, "Awesome. Y'all are going to kill it." And then I start laying out the

tools. I say like look here's candlesticks you know like or they already know candlesticks but you know

like here's break of structure here's liquidity here's fair value gaps here's order blocks and after all that I start

seeing in the chat and it's like they're doing everything that they're not supposed to be doing they're taking too

many trades a day they're over risking they're over lever like they're just [ __ ] up and I'm just sitting there

Like, bro, what did we even talk about for the first week then? It's almost like I need

to do a psychology mastermind where it's just like a full month where if you like already know a strategy that works for

you, like let me just grill you for a full month until you get that [ __ ] through your head. This is how easy

trading can be. Don't overthink. Don't over complicate. and

let's lay out what we shouldn't be doing and what we should be doing. Okay. So,

I'm kind of going to put you guys onto the charts here and we're just going to make a little

text box. Okay. Talk this one out. Let's see. Bet.

So, we're going to make a little box talking about what we should not be doing.

Okay. And this is going to apply to life. And this is going to apply to trading. And if you can't apply it to

your life, you'll never be able to apply it to trading because that's just how this [ __ ] works. If you're undisiplined

in one area, you're going to be undisiplined in every other area. So just how life works. If you fold in one

area, you're going to like you're going to fold all over again. Okay? So I want you guys to kind of do this along with

me or write this down with me. I'll give you guys time to pull out your

notebooks, pull out a pen and paper. And you guys should be doing this honestly like every single day until you get it

through your head and until your subconscious is like just knows exactly what to do. Literally just write this

[ __ ] out every single day. Okay, so number one, even though we haven't got there yet, or first of all,

let's just talk about what this is. Whoa. It's your trading mindset shift. Can't

type at all today. This is going to be your trading mindset shift. Okay. And what we have to know and what

we have to understand about changing how we trade is we have to do pretty much everything that you guys are

not. We have to stop doing everything that you guys are currently doing right now. Okay. So, if we think about it,

what are you guys currently doing right now that's causing UDIS to be unsuccessful within the market? Let's

just write out what unprofitable traders do in the first place. We'll set this to the side.

Unprofitable mindset. Okay. So, let's start off on this one.

several strategies. A lot of you guys, Oops. A lot of you guys are trading,

multiple different strategies every sing every single day. You'll take one trade with TJR's strategy. The next trade,

you'll watch a YouTube video on Mamba FX's five minute strategy. You'll take that one. The next trade, you'll take

Lambo Raul strategy. You guys have like 20 different strategies that you're trying to work at all together

and you're never going to be successful doing that in trading. You know why? You're stretching yourself thin. It's

like saying, "Hey, I'm going to try this one, this one, this one, this one, this one, this one, this one, all at the same

time." And you're going to suck at all of them all at the same time. and you'll never

get better at all of them at the same time because you're trying to do them all at the same time. So if you want to

get good at a skill or get good at a strategy, you have to have one single one. So unprofitable mindset number one,

a lot of you guys have several different strategies. Along with that, a lot of you guys have several mentors.

Choose one. You have to choose one. A lot of you guys watch my videos. A lot of you guys watch ICT videos. A lot of

you guys watch, you know, other people's videos. I don't care who you watch. Even if this

means you guys stop watching me. All I want is for you guys to turn into profitable traders. I'm fine with you

just saying, "Look, TJR, I [ __ ] with you, but this guy's strategy works better for me." Awesome. We'll dap up. I

did my job. I did what I needed to do. You can step out here and and then boom. Okay. just have one mentor because again

with several strategies I teach certain confluences a different way. Your other mentors have different strategies. Your

other mentors, sorry I'll boogie. Your other mentors trade differently than me and they teach

things differently than me. If you guys want to be successful in trading, you need one single mentor and you need one

single strategy because it's the same thing. You're stretching yourself too thin. If you learn trading from me, you

learn trading from Raul, you learn trading from ICT, you learn trading from somebody else. Again, it's like input

one, input two, input three, input four, and all of them are just little trickles instead of just one boom full power

faucet. So, have one strategy, have one mentor. moving forward.

You guys overthink and you guys over complicate trading way too much, bro. Way too much. You guys get into trading

and think you need to be able to solve the [ __ ] like the cure for cancer in order to be able

to be successful in trading. It's not the case. Simple simplicity is better within trading. Guess what I taught my

mentorship students, okay? And I'm going to keep bringing them up because th these people are are

going to be killers after this [ __ ] And I I taught them. I said, "Look, I'm going to give you guys a strategy. You

won't be able to take a trade every day. You probably won't be able to find a trade every single day, but I guarantee

you if you stick to these rules 100% of the time, stay disciplined, don't over risk, and obviously don't overtrade

because you're sticking to the strategy, you will be profitable straight out of this

because I gave it to them." So simply, it's literally step one, step two, understand what you're looking for. Step

three, step four, execute. And and it's like the e like I gave them literally one. It's just a checklist and then it's

execute hands off. And I guarantee you they will be profitable if they follow that checklist.

The problem with a lot of you guys with trading is you guys are looking at 20 different time frames. You guys are

looking at 30 different confluences. You guys are looking having 10 different strategies in your head and you have

three different mentors giving you their daily bias for the day. We need to stop that. My mentorship

students, they're only looking at four time frames and it's three confluences

off of those four time frames. It's as easy as that. You don't need to be looking at some bull like bro trust me

right now another basketball analogy for you guys when you guys are looking into these

advanced ass concepts which is one of the reasons why I'm not necessarily a huge fan of like these people who are

teaching like 30y year plus complicated ass concepts to people who are just trying to get into trading today.

You're one giving them the opportunity to overtrade and two giving them the opportunity to

over complicate the [ __ ] and overthink everything. If you guys just keep it simple and just

say like, "Look, I understand that right now my strategy is simple, but I know I'll be successful with it." Just do

that. Right? If you just learned how to play basketball and you know for a fact you'll make that layup every single

time. Wide open layup. That's the only shot that you know you can hit that you know you're successful with

and then the coach puts you in the game and then you try and hit a behind the back 360 reverse layup, you're obviously

going to miss. You're obviously going to be unsuccessful. Versus if you have that open layup and you just shoot the ball,

you're probably going to make it. you have a much higher probability of making it with a simple shot compared to just

as like a twomonth in basketball player. You guys have to think about it like that. You guys are like literally

several months into trading like barely even into this [ __ ] and you guys are trying to do [ __ ] that people who have

been in the market for 30 plus years. I'm not going to name any names, but there's somebody in in here on on

YouTube that is doing this to you guys and he's teaching you guys [ __ ] that he

understands because he has 30 plus years in the market, but you guys have no [ __ ] clue what he's talking about and

you guys think you know what he's talking about. It's like LeBron being like, "Yo, peep this super advanced

[ __ ] basketball move." and you're like two months into trading or two months into basketball

and you barely know how to dribble with your right and your left hand, you're never going to be able to make that shot

ever until time catches up with it. You know, once you have time, that's okay. You'll be able to get there. But for

now, let's focus on the easy [ __ ] And trust me, with the easy [ __ ] we'll be successful. So, let's make it easy first

and be successful with the easy [ __ ] So, stop overthinking and stop over complicating. Keep it, y'all know the

saying, kiss, keep it simple, stupid. K I S S. Keep it simple, stupid. Okay, that's what I need you guys to do.

So, you guys have several different strategies, several mentors, and you guys overthink and over complicate.

You know what else you guys do? you try and get rich quick. You need to understand that this is a skill and this

is going to take a long time to be successful in and it's going to take take a long time to get rich in it.

Right now you guys have super low starting capital. Okay, funded accounts can help with

that, but you also don't know how to trade yet. So, one, you should not be trading on a live account right now.

Okay? Why would why would a coach if a coach sees, hey, man, you're two months into playing basketball. You've never

played in a game before. We don't know if you're going to be good. Matter of fact, come join the NBA. You're going to

be starting. That's pretty much what you guys are doing by jumping into a live account and putting like $5,000 on the

line. You're going to get eaten alive by this market. You have no experience. You have no clue what you're doing yet. Bro,

get on demo and get some reps in first. play in games that don't [ __ ] matter before you go into the [ __ ] playoffs

and in the NBA championship. This is not a get-richqu scheme. You guys make it up in your head that it's a

get-rich quick scheme. You guys think you're going to get rich quick by doing this. It's not the case.

You will never get rich quick doing something. I will tell you, if you follow all my rules, all of my steps

that I'm going to give you guys throughout this trading transformation, you will be able to make money quicker

than other professions where you have to clock in, clock out, climb up the corporate ladder. But you guys have to

understand, it's not going to happen in a month. You're not going to make 100k a month in a single year.

You probably won't even make 100K in a single year after like two or three years of trading.

But again, eventually you will be able to get to that point. It's just not as quick as you dream it up to be.

Okay, moving forward. What else do you guys do?

Let me think. What else do horrible traders do? You guys have a bunch of different

strategies. You have a bunch of different mentors. You guys overthink everything. And you over complicate

everything. You really do think you have to be [ __ ] Einstein to solve this [ __ ] You really don't. It's lit. Like

literally, if you guys keep it as simple as possible, bro, you'll be able to be profitable. You won't be able to take a

trade every day, but that doesn't matter, right? If the shot's not there and you you only know that you're going
