Hi everyone, after 6 years of anonymity, here I am. Brando in the flesh. I’m a day trader with 14 years of experience. I started with $6000 and after many ups and downs I ended up living the life of my dreams. Here’s my story below. 👇 I grew up on the east coast near Boston. My Mom and Dad were war refugees from Vietnam. They came to the United States on a small boat 35 years ago in search of a better life. They did their best to raise me and offer the best life they could when I was growing up. I’ve lived a very normal and quiet life until I was 19 years old. This is when I discovered the stock market. One day,I looked at the company American Apparel and the stock price in the library and saw the potential of how much money could be made if I bought at a certain price and sold at a higher one. A friend of mine introduced me to options shortly after and the rest was history. I graduated from College and continued my journey towards becoming a profitable trader. The first 3 years are BY FAR the hardest. The number of strategies, indicators, stocks, and education available was a sensory overload. I didn't know what to use or what to read. So I just read them all. I was fortunate in my first few years to get lucky trading a few stocks such as $BAC $INO, and some weed stocks during that 2013 range that helped build up my account tremendously. After the first three years I realized that LESS is MORE. You don’t need 10 indicators to tell you a stock is going to go up. You don’t need 5 different strategies to be a profitable trader. You just need ONE. The most important thing that I found was helpful is PATIENCE. 99% of the world is impatient. I knew If I could master this, I could have a big edge against the majority of retail traders. I spent a lot of time meditating. I spent hundreds of hours sitting alone in silence trying to clear my mind and focus on the present. Eventually I got really good at it. I noticed my ability to wait for trades got better. In my 4th and 5th year of trading, I was able to wait days to weeks at a time for the best trades. This was one of the A-HA moments I had in trading early on. Since then I’ve refined and mastered the art of patience and leveraged it to my advantage. Fast forward 14 years. I’ve retired my parents. I’ve helped my brother, and countless others. I ask for nothing in return from anyone. I don’t ask for any favors and I certainly do not try and steal from anyone. I’ve lived my life with the utmost integrity and I did things MY WAY. I can’t be bought and sold. Money and Power have zero influence in my decision making. My sole purpose on this earth is to help as many people as possible. I look forward to teaching you all and guiding everyone through the stock market for many years to come. Cheers! 🙏

80% of trading is just sitting there talking yourself out of a disaster. • Chasing • Revenge trading • Sizing up after a loss Most of the job is just not doing something stupid.

16 years ago... I was working at a library while studying. My net pay was... well let's say it wasn't enough. My girl and I recently broke up, I had no money and genuinely thought college was my way out. I was sick of being broke. Sick of surviving, not living. Sick of college. Then trading entered the chat...

Most people will never respect what you do. Lose money starting a business: “It happens, better luck next time.” Lose money trading: “Maybe stop gambling and get a job?” Then when you make money trading: “You got lucky.” Nobody questions the person who spent 30 years at a job they hated. They call that responsible. I learned early to stop seeking approval for how I live. 6 years anonymous. 8 figures built in silence. The people who matter will see the life eventually. Everyone else doesn't need to know how it was built. Stop explaining yourself. The peace that comes from that decision alone is worth more than any validation you were chasing.

Hey, Are you listening? Good. The best trading advice is still: • NEVER • AVERAGE • DOWN Holding losers won’t make you a winner.

It doesn’t matter how long the journey takes. Stop measuring your progress against strangers on the internet. Most of them are performing, not trading. Every skill worth having takes years to build. Trading is no different. Stay in your lane. The timeline doesn't matter. Quitting does.

You have to care about trading to learn it. But the moment you sit down to trade, you have to act like you don't care. The more you care about winning, the worse you perform. The less you care, the better you execute.

What a way to end the week. We bought $MU 1000C at $8, sold it at $22.00 quickly.

TRADE PLAN for June 12th 📈 $SPX will gap through 7400 at the open, if it holds this level we can see a push back towards 7480-7500 before FOMC next week. Calls can work above 7400 for today $MU touched 1000 last night now its near 970. If MU pops back above 980 Calls can work for a move to 1000. MU through 1000 can run to 1100,1200. $QQQ fading a bit premarket, it touched 721 now its back near 716. If QQQ can get through 722 it can run to 731-735 range. Best to see QQQ build a new base above 712. Good luck today everyone!! 🫡

You will suffer in trading. You will Lose money that hurts. You will have sleepless nights feeling lost. But trading gives you something nothing else can. A real shot at the life you’ve always wanted. You can't give up. Never.

I have 245k followers. I want ALL of you to understand this. Analysis and execution are two completely different skills. I used to think the hardest part of trading was finding the right entry. It wasn't. The hardest part is executing the same plan when real money is on the line. On paper you catch every move. You never hesitate. You never exit early. You never feel fear. Then real money enters the equation and everything changes. The market doesn't pay you for knowing where price is going. It pays you for what you do when it starts moving against you. The truth is: most traders have an execution problem. My trading changed the day I stopped obsessing over finding the perfect setup and started obsessing over following my rules. Nobody withdraws paper trading screenshots. The traders getting paid are the ones who execute what they already know. Consistently. Every single day. No exceptions. Do you understand?

I won't lie to you. Trading is hard. 16 years in and this game still tests me. On the good days nothing makes more sense. You wonder how anyone does it any other way. On the bad days you question everything. Whether it's worth it. Whether you're wasting your life. Whether the people with stable jobs had it right all along. Both days are part of it. May you never give up on the hard ones.

Trading is the slowest way to make fast money. Read that again.

$SPX gapped up on Monday and Tuesday and faded lower. Similar price action happening again today, SPX tried to breakout above 7300 and failed, if it gives up 7230 range.. 7000 comes next $QQQ under 691 can drop 10 points very quickly next week, The market is still pretty tough to trade in this high volatility environment. SPX premiums are very inflated, be careful with your sizing.

TRADE PLAN for June 11th 📈 $SPX futures was 50 early this morning let's see if it pushes back higher, Expect to see another wide range today. SPX needs back above 7300 to start a bounce higher. If We see SPX gives up ydays lows near 7266 it can drop to 7200 next. $MSFT gapping lower with futures higher. MSFT to 390 in play if we see another tech sell off. Puts can work under 396 for today $QQQ unless we see 708 I'd stay a bit more bearish on QQQ this week. At the minimum it needs back above 700 to start a rally higher. QQQ under 691 can test 682. Be careful with sizing. The higher the volatility, the higher chance you have of being stopped out. Good luck everyone!! 🫡

6 money making rules I've followed for 16 years: 1. Size every position assuming it could go to zero. 2. Withdraw every week without fail. 3. Only trade when your level is undeniable. 4. Never average down on a losing futures position. 5. Never revenge trade. Close the platform and come back tomorrow. 6. When the market is choppy and directionless, do nothing.

TRADE PLAN for Thursday 📈 $SPX moved right near 7400 in the first hour then dropped 120 points. There's still lots of weakness in the market. If SPX fails to reclaim 7300 tomorrow we can see a dip to 7200 then down to 7000 after FOMC. I'd stay bearish under 7300 $QQQ all about 695 tomorrow, if this fails, QQQ to 691 coming. QQQ under 691 can fill the gap down to 682. QQQ June 12 690P can work under 695 $MU dropped 80 from the highs if it can't reclaim 900 it can drop to 850,820. MU June 12 840P is best under 900 this week. We had a massive 9 week rally and the market is starting to shift now. Be careful trading the upside over the next 2 weeks. Good luck everyone!! 🫡

Learning how to trade is better than going to college. Prove me wrong.
