If You’re Not Profitable, Do This

In partnership with

Hey Mate,

Let’s cut the BS.

If you’re still not making money from trading—it’s not because you’re not smart enough. It’s because you’re focused on the wrong things.

You don’t need another strategy. You don’t need more indicators. You don’t need to master 10 timeframes.

You need to focus on the only things that actually matter:

• Liquidity

• Psychology

That’s it.

Trading isn’t a degree. It’s not about “studying” endlessly.

It’s a business. And you need to treat it like one.

Because every day you waste playing around with new strategies or avoiding risk is time you’ll never get back.

Adapt—or die.

Set a clear deadline:

🗓️ When will you become a profitable trader?

If you don’t have a deadline, then you don’t have a goal. You have a dream.

And dreams don’t pay the bills.

Now—if you miss the deadline, don’t beat yourself up. Just set a new one. But keep going. Keep pushing. Keep improving.

Become obsessed with becoming profitable.

Think aggressively about how to get there:

• What needs to change?

• What’s holding you back?

• What are you pretending not to see?

This is exactly what I teach my private students: How to simplify their trading and master what matters.

I don’t teach fluff. I teach traders how to make money.

And I’ll be honest with you: The more students who take my course and make a lot of money, the more testimonials I get. The more testimonials I get, the more customers I attract.

So it’s in my interest to help you win.

Let’s make this your turning point.

You have what it takes. You wouldn’t be here if you didn’t.

But this isn’t the time to coast. You need to lock in your focus, cut the noise, and go all-in on what actually matters.

Master one model. Train your mind. Execute with consistency.

Trading will test you—but if you’re serious about this, you can absolutely win.

Until next time,
