The Truth About Becoming Profitable

Most traders fail because they’re focusing on the wrong things.

Market structure isn’t going to make you profitable.

And meditating isn’t going to fix your trading psychology.

Here’s the truth: trading success boils down to two things—liquidity and mindset.

Liquidity is what moves the markets. It’s how big players, like banks, enter and exit their massive positions.

If you’re not trading with liquidity in mind, you’re trading blind.

How to Actually Use Liquidity to Become Profitable

✅ Identify where liquidity is sitting – This will be at key highs/lows on the 4H and Daily chart. Always ask yourself: where are the stop loss orders?
✅ Wait for a liquidity sweep – This prevents price hitting your stop loss before quickly reversing and hitting your take profit.
✅ Enter using a simple, high-probability model – FVGs, OTEs, or Order Blocks.

That’s it.

No market structure.

No VWAP.

Just a clear, reliable approach that works across all markets.

The Two Sides of Trading: Strategy + Mindset

Here’s the thing, most traders think success is just about finding the perfect strategy.

It’s not.

Becoming profitable is 50% technical and 50% psychological. If you only focus on one side and not the other, you’ll keep struggling.

Two years into my trading journey, I was broken and lost.

I tried everything imaginable, I had put in 12-hour days for years but I still had nothing to show for it.

I was at the point of giving up.

But then, something clicked.

Not because I found some magical new strategy. Not because I suddenly got smarter. But because I started reprogramming my subconscious mind.

Every day, I wrote:

I kept writing this on one side of an A4 notepad and imagined what it would be like to be a profitable trader.

At first, I didn’t really believe it, but it made me happy. And since I was miserable at the time, I kept doing it.

But then, everything changed.

I had a massive winning streak—10 trades in a row!

I thought it was luck—I was wrong.

What I had done was reprogram my mind to see myself as a profitable trader instead of someone trying to become a profitable trader.

I would read that last sentence multiple times if I were you.

And before long, I was up 15% on a $100K account—a lot of money haha.

The Psychological Side

Truth is, psychology will either make or break you in trading and in life.

For years, I thought like a poor man, and I got poor man results.

But as soon as I started thinking like a rich man, I became a rich man.

You see, you need to see yourself as a profitable trader before you actually become one.

You have to “fake it until you make it.”

Why does this work?

Here’s why:

✅ Reprogram your subconscious mind – If deep down you believe trading is hard, you will subconsciously sabotage yourself. You have to change this, otherwise, you will never be a profitable trader.
✅ Self-Image – You see yourself as a guy learning how to trade and not as a guy who is a profitable trader. Your mind will keep you in that identity until you change it.
✅ We become what we think about – Every great man throughout history has agreed on this one point—from Alexander the Great to Jesus to Donald Trump. If you think bad thoughts, they will come true. If you think good thoughts, they will come true.

The Fastest Way to Get Profitable

If this sounds like a lot of work, it’s because it is.

Most traders spend years trying to figure this out. And, sadly, most get nowhere.

They jump from one strategy to the next, overcomplicate their trading, and never fix their mindset.

Most traders will never make it, not because trading is hard, but because they don’t have the right education.

They think they understand liquidity, yet they can’t predict the bias and their stop loss keeps getting hit.

They think that affirmations alone will fix their mindset without understanding how the subconscious mind actually works.

But this is exactly what I teach my students—how to focus on what works in trading AND permanently fix your trading psychology forever.

As far as I am aware, nobody is teaching you how to reprogram your subconscious mind.

It took me months to figure it out, but I have condensed it into a few videos.

And this works.

This isn’t some woo-woo BS.

In fact, Joan, one of my students, made $20K in a month using this.

And that’s why I built Iron Forged Trading—a course designed to make you profitable as fast as possible.
