Build your trading career like a business. There is no shortcut to succeed in trading. If your goal is to make a lot of money fast, go to the casino. If your goal is to build a life-long career in trading, where you can repeat a process to make consistent and predictable returns over a very long time, take it slow. Trading is a marathon, not a sprint.

In this conversation David sits down with Sasha, a regular at the Friendly Bear Conferences who lives in Los Angeles and has become a familiar face in the community. They dig into the real realities of trading while raising a young child, the psychological traps of prop firms, the power of in-person trader connections, and why Sasha is slowly shifting toward stocks.

Price Action Rose joins David Capablanca ahead of Friendly Bear Conference 7 in Los Angeles.

Rose is a full-time ES futures trader. She walks through her path from corporate marketing and a jewelry studio into trading, why she left stocks for the S&P 5-minute chart, and how she reads bars as a conversation — not indicators.

The core of the episode: stop-order / trend days vs limit-order / bet-against days, why “choppy” is the wrong word, how tight ranges are a retail scalping edge, and how she used prop firms as funding instead of a same-day gamble.

See Rose live with Tom Hougaard and me on October 12, 2026 at City Club LA, 51st floor.
