Key moments
[01:45] "Being able to look at the trade setup that you know is your bread and butter trade—to kind of have those A, B, and C setups marked out."

[02:56] "Once you learn that you can’t really beat your emotions, you just have to game plan to not get to that point. It makes you re-examine your whole psychology."

[03:28] "A good psychology strategy puts you in the driver's seat of making sure you don’t get to that place of doing dumb decisions by not putting yourself in very over-stressful situations."

[04:06] "Stop trying to keep up with what you see other people are doing, and just kind of run your own race in terms of your own account size and things like that."

[06:09] "If you know that once the heat gets turned up, you start to learn this is something that's unavoidable, and the only way I avoid it is by not putting myself in that scenario to begin with."

[06:56] "Mapping out my emotions, really getting a better understanding of what emotionally is causing me to get to these certain places and basically creating a map of that stuff."

[10:06] "Pretty much, you can win with any strategy. As long as you know your system in and out and you know what causes you to get in on the market, you can be profitable."

[13:46] "If you haven’t backtested, it’s basically just practicing. So if you haven’t practiced, how are you going to be great at trading?"

[26:56] "You really need to have a transparent conversation with yourself around, when you get funded, are you able to actually manage your account with risk?"

Key moments
[04:25] In order to succeed in this profession, it genuinely needs to be a passion.

[08:53] Confluence is when you analyze the markets or your reasons to believe something will occur.

[10:25] The more technical confluences you have aligning in one specific area, the higher probability of success that trade idea should have.

[12:54] If you universally agree on the fact that a certain area in the market looks attractive for buys, well, that's in your favor.

[14:41] You just got to adapt, and you got to be monitoring everything all the time.

[19:24] It's the most subjective profession in the world.

[22:01] Discipline is obviously extremely important.

[24:39] You want to wait for the markets to come to you and not the other way around.

June 10, 2025305. The ONLY Difference Between Me and Losing Traders Is This…

Full episode + show notes: https://tradingnut.com/emmitt-smith-2/
Key moments
[01:15] The higher the barrier of entry into the markets, the easier it is to extract money from the markets.

[02:38] If you don't have at least six months of capital saved up for your life, trying to make a transition into trading will likely result in emotional trading.

[05:09] Routine is everything; waking up at the same time, trading the same pairs, and following the same setups leads to consistency.

[06:26] Sticking to a foundation and getting your routine is what brings you to a level of being able to make minor adjustments to become a better trader.

[08:27] Math doesn't lie; understanding the probabilities and executing a system consistently is key to profitability.

[10:19] If the data you're looking to optimize is skewed by emotions, you won't achieve the results you're looking for.

[12:11] Emotional trading is what catches 98% of failing traders; it's crucial to be real with oneself about trading performance.

[15:58] FOMO can be managed by sticking to a personal trading routine and avoiding distractions from social media.

[23:07] All doubt comes from a lack of confidence within your system, which can be overcome through time and data.

[30:33] Things take time, and executing the same exact strategy over and over again will lead to improvement.

Full episode + show notes: https://tradingnut.com/will-thefxace/
Key moments
[10:30] Find a system that suits yourself, your mentality, your time frame.

[11:36] Start small and consistently build over time. Get yourself consistent on a small scale and then scale big as you build your mindset and grow.

[12:15] The markets are a reflection of who you are when you start trading; everything that's going wrong in your trading is a reflection of everything wrong in you.

[16:02] Focus on yourself instead of focusing on everything else.

[23:20] If you're over trading, if you're getting aggressive, that's your ego. You have to pull back and look within.

[24:11] You're the block. And if you're not where you want to be, it's something inside you that's not.

[24:34] You have to be physically and mentally at your top level to be successful in trading.

Will, a 16-year veteran forex trader, began his trading journey in 2009 while on a work holiday visa in Australia. Initially learning through trial and error, he spent about 18 months becoming profitable, with significant guidance from a professional futures trader friend who taught him how to read market levels and momentum.
His professional breakthrough came in 2013-2014 when he started managing trading accounts for others, with a pivotal year in 2015 where he worked in Mallorca. During this period, he successfully grew a 50k account for a German investor and later a 100k account to 175k, earning around 220k.
