Boot Camp Day 7: Individuality

Yo, welcome to boot camp day. Yeah, I don't [ __ ] know. Um, welcome to, welcome back to boot camp. Oh, I think this is actually day seven. Congrats, you made it a week after today's video. How has it been? Hopefully, you guys are improving. Hopefully, you guys have already seen, you know, some improvement on your own psychology, on your own discipline, and then also as we start getting into the trading stuff tomorrow, we talk about liquidity. Um, so as we start getting into the trading stuff, hopefully we can start benefiting your trading, and hopefully some of the beginning, the beginner stuff and some of that base foundation that we talked about, those basics, um, have improved your trading as well. Something I've noticed already, um, has just been my trades have been a lot better while making this boot camp. It's almost reminding me of some things that I forgot about in the past, and so thank you guys for making me, you know, make even more money in trading. I've been killing it this week. Um, Discord's been eating, and yeah, it's just been, it's been great so far, and I love seeing you guys learn, um, along with, you know, helping me learn, uh, too. It's been great. So today's topic is obviously based more on psychology, right? As you guys know, we go back and forth. Yesterday's video was on, um, breakup structure. Today we are talking about, um, today we're talking about individuality and how you guys should not aspire to be somebody else other than you because every single person has their own opinions on certain things. Everyone's brain is different, right? Um, everyone is their own person, and you shouldn't try and copy and paste, um, yourself to make it to, to make someone, to make you something you are not. Okay, so today I want to talk about, you know, like how you can kind of find yourself, how you can find, um, you know, your own, your own uniqueness and your own opinions, your own strengths and weaknesses, and how you guys can play off of that. Okay, um, and I really do add something that I notice. I don't know any other day trading course that is going this in depth in psychology, and I honestly think this is going to be beneficial. I wasn't even thinking of doing this until the day that I started the course. Um, when I made that first video, I was like, you know what, we need to be doing both of these hand in hand because if, if they have the trading aspect, if they have hundreds of videos for trading but, you know, like nothing for psychology, they're still not going to be profitable. So that's my whole thought process about this, um, and, and hopefully we can, we can learn and we can improve. But today we're going to be talking about individuality. So first of all, we're just going to focus mainly on the trading part portion of it, and then at the end we can kind of just do like overarching view of like, you know, how, how being your own strong confident individual can help you just in life. Okay, um, and, and how I've seen it help myself in life. Start off in trading, let's say, right? I'm your favorite mentor or I'm your role model in the trading space, but you don't understand my strategy for some reason. It doesn't click in your head. You can't, you can't seem to wrap your head around it, and it's really difficult for you to understand. However, there's another mentor that you, that you like as well, um, but like I'm like your favorite one, but there's another guy who has a strategy that you understand completely and it works for you. Stop trying to force something that doesn't work just because you have some sort of like attachment or some sort of feeling to it. Um, and that's something really big and it's really hard to do, um, to be able to be like, look, I just, being able to admit to yourself I'm not good at this, right? I like, this is something that I am bad at. So what, what do I do? You have to make a change, right? Because you're bad at it. So you can either, you know, either put a little bit more effort into it, but if you, if you've done your time trying to learn my strategy and you just know you're like, I just, it's too much, I can't understand it. Perfect, that's completely fine. Don't, don't listen to me anymore. Listen to my discipline stuff, listen to my psychology stuff. It'll help you, but to use a completely different strategy. Okay, and along with that, if you have, if there's like two different strategies that you have, one of them is mine, another one is like one that you created on your own, which is what we'll get into, um, or one of them's mine and then another one is from another mentor and you kind of like twist them together to make it your own, that is what you should be doing. You should be kind of grabbing pieces of strategies that you know and understand because if you think about it, my strategies are all just based off of simple concepts, plugging them into an execution order and then taking the trade. So right as we go through this course and as you start learning about liquidity sweeps, break of structure, fair value gaps, order blocks, maybe fair value gaps and order blocks you don't understand, but liquidity you understand and break of structure you want, you can understand those two in itself, you can take a trade off of. Let's say you can only understand order blocks, break of structure, and then also like SMT divergence, which I won't talk about in here because I don't trade it and I don't even know what the [ __ ] it is. Everyone loves talking about it. I don't even know what the [ __ ] that is. Okay, something to do with the [ __ ] NASDAQ in my ass crack. Okay, but either way, um, do what works for you, not, not exactly what like I'm just, you know, you don't have to, right? If, if you don't understand liquidity sweeps and they've just never clicked for you, don't use them. Remember this, we're trying to make this for you, right? So do what's best for you. Understand that you should not be listening to other people telling you, oh no, this is the only way to trade. There's a million ways to trade. Okay, there's a million ways to trade and there's a million traders that trade a million different ways and a bunch of them are profitable, right? There's a bunch of different ways to trade. So don't think that this course or this strategy in itself is like so locked down, so don't do like you must follow every single one of these things or else you will suck. That's not how this is going to work. No, I'm just teaching you what I know about trading, okay? And if you can benefit from that, awesome. And if you don't understand some things, that's okay. Learn from somebody else, take bits and pieces from my stuff, mix it together to make your own stuff. Guys, like my Forex strategy, which is something that I've been killing so far, like I made that up on my own. That's something that I literally just noticed through, through repetition of me just sitting there every London session on GJ and noticing a fake out. I called it the London session fake out. I literally was like, hey, that's kind of weird. Why the [ __ ] right when London session opens, it just goes super strong in one direction but then immediately flips direction. I was like, but it happens every single London session. Why is this happening? And that was pretty much my introduction to liquidity sweeps. So be your own person within this. Don't try and be me. Don't try and be your mentor. Don't try and be any of those people. Be yourself in these markets. Understand that this is a very individualistic thing because if, if, right, I trade my strategy and it works really good for me, right? I'm profitable, but some of you guys are using my strategy and then you're also not profitable, right? And that, that can be a couple things. It can be one, you just not understanding the concepts well enough. Two, could be, you know, you just literally don't have the time on the charts yet. You can't fully understand price action. And then three, like you just simply don't understand it, right? It just doesn't work for you. Okay, so understand that. Know that you're your own person apart from me even though you're learning from me. Understand that it's okay if you can't understand some things that I'm t

you guys are improving hopefully you guys have already seen you know some improvement on your own psychology on your own discipline and then also as we start getting into the trading stuff tomorrow we talk about liquidity um so as we start getting into the

trading stuff hopefully we can start benefiting your trading and hopefully some of the beginning the beginner stuff and some of that base Foundation that we talked about those Basics um have improved your trading as well something I've noticed already

um has just been my trades have been a lot better while making this boot camp it's almost reminding me of some things that I forgot about in the past and so thank you guys for making me you know

make even more money in trading I've been killing it this week um discord's been eating and yeah it's just been it's been great so far and I love seeing you guys learn um along with you know helping me learn

uh too it's been great so today's topic is obviously based more on psychology right as you guys know we go back and forth yesterday's video was on um breakup structure today we are talking about um today we're talking about

individuality and how you guys should not aspire to be somebody else other than you because every single person has their own opinions on certain things everyone's brain is different right um everyone is their own person and you shouldn't try and copy and paste

um yourself to make it to to make someone to make you something you are not okay so today I want to talk about you know like how you can kind of find yourself how you can find um you know your own your own uniqueness

and your own opinions your own strengths and weaknesses and how you guys can play off of that okay um and I really do add something that I notice I don't know any other day trading course that is going this in

depth in Psychology and I honestly think this is going to be beneficial I wasn't even thinking of doing this until the day that I started the course um when I made that first video I was like you know what we need to be doing

both of these hand in hand because if if they have the trading aspect if they have hundreds of videos for trading but you know like nothing for psychology they're still not going to be profitable so that's my whole thought process about

this um and and hopefully we can we can learn and we can improve but today we're going to be talking about individuality so first of all we're just going to focus mainly on the trading Port portion of it

and then at the end we can kind of just do like overarching view of like you know how how being your own strong confident individual can help you just in life okay um and and how I've seen it help myself

in life start off in trading let's say right I'm your favorite Mentor or I'm your role model in the training space but you don't understand my strategy for some reason it doesn't click in your head you can't you can't seem to wrap

your head around it and it's really difficult for you understand however there's another Mentor that you that you like as well um but like I'm like your favorite one but there's another guy who has a strategy that you understand completely

and it works for you stop trying to force something that doesn't work just because you have some sort of like attachment or some sort of feeling to it um and that's something really big and it's really hard to do

um to be able to be like look I just being able to admit to yourself I'm not good at this right I like this is something that I am bad at so what what do I do you have to make a change right

because you're bad at it so you can either you know either put a little bit more effort into it but if you if you've done your time trying to learn my strategy and you just know you're like I

just it's too much I can't understand it perfect that's completely fine don't don't listen to me anymore listen to my discipline stuff listen to my psychology stuff it'll help you but to use a completely different strategy okay and

along with that if you have if there's like two different strategies that you have one of them is mine another one is like one that you created on your own which is what we'll get into um or one of them's mine and then

another one is from another mentor and you kind of like twist them together to make it your own that is what you should be doing you should be kind of grabbing pieces of strategies that you know and understand because if

you think about it my strategies are all just based off of simple Concepts plugging them into an execution order and then taking the trade so right as we go through this course and as you start learning about liquidity sweeps break of structure fair

value gaps order blocks maybe fair value gaps and Order blocks you don't understand but liquidity you understand and break of structure you want you can understand those two in itself you can take a trade off of let's say you can only understand

order blocks break of structure and then also like smt Divergence which I won't talk about in here because I don't trade it and I don't even know what the [ __ ] it is everyone loves talking about it I

don't even know what the [ __ ] that is okay something to do with the [ __ ] NASDAQ in my ass crack okay but either way um do what works for you not not exactly what like I'm just you know you don't have to

right if if you don't understand liquidity sleeps and they've just never clicked for you don't use them remember this we're trying to make this for you right so do what's best for you understand that you should not be

listening to other people telling you oh no this is the only way to trade there's a million ways to trade okay there's a million ways to trade and there's a million traders that trade a million different ways and a bunch of them are

profitable right there's a bunch of different ways to trade so don't think that this course or this strategy in itself is like so locked down so don't do like you must follow every single one of these things or else you will suck that's not how

this is going to work no I'm just teaching you what I know about trading okay and if you can benefit from that awesome and if you don't understand some things that's okay learn from somebody else take bits and pieces from my stuff

mix it together to make your own stuff guys like my Forex strategy which which is something that I've been killing so far like I made that up on my own that's something that I literally just noticed through through repetition of me just

sitting there every London session on GJ and noticing a fake out I called it the London session fake out I literally was like hey that's kind of weird why the [ __ ] right when London session opens it

just goes super strong in One Direction but then immediately flips Direction I was like but it happens every single London session why is this happening and that was pretty much my introduction to liquidity sweeps so be your own

person within this don't try and be me don't try and be your Mentor don't try and be any of those people be yourself in these markets understand that this is a very individualistic thing because if if right I trade my

strategy and it works really good for me right I'm profitable but some of you guys are using my strategy and then you're also not profitable right and that that can be a couple things it can be one you just not understanding the

concepts well enough two could be you know you just literally don't have the the time on the charts yet you can't fully understand price action and then three like you just simply don't understand it right it just doesn't work

for you okay so understand that know that you're your own person apart from me even though you're learning from me understand that it's okay if you can't understand some things that I'm teaching and and adapt to that be adaptable okay

and adapt to yourself and your own needs not what I'm saying not oh tjr said this so this is law right understand that you have to be adaptable within your own strategy like I see people on Tick Tock

tagging me all the time saying using tjr strategy in Confluence with ICT Silver Bullet I don't know what the [ __ ] this silver bullet is I don't know what that is but they're making money doing it they're using part of what I teach and

part of what ICT teaches that's perfect that's amazing and it works great for them so whatever works for you is what you need to be focused on okay focus on your own self within this this is a race

between yourself okay this is a a task that's between you and you don't if you're trying to do this with your friends don't do not do this together with your buddies make it between yourself and you only don't compete with

your friends because everyone's learning curve is different if your friend is like holy [ __ ] just got my second month profitable and you're sitting here like bro like I haven't even had a profitable week right that's going to mess up your

psychology that's going to mess up your head understand that everybody's learning curve is different everybody learns different ways everybody understands things differently right we all have different brains we're all our own humans we're all our own people so

that's something you guys need to understand and you know like apply apply that individuality and understanding that you're different from everybody else apply that to life and to trading okay so that's that's how we can incorporate that into trading now let's

talk about how we can incorporate that into life this is another thing I see people talking about all the time I want to be just like tjr I can't wait to move to Puerto Rico I can't wait to

get a dog that looks like Boogie no dude maybe you like that stuff because you like me and and I'm doing all this stuff but guys do what you want do what you want with your own life that's another

thing you don't listen to anybody else's opinions why that's like that's like me walking out walking out all dressed up ready for the day wearing the clothes I think I got a great fit on right and then right when I walk outside two of my

friends say why are you wearing that that doesn't look good and then me saying okay okay I'm sorry and then like going back and completely changing into an outfit that I hate that only they like right that doesn't make any sense right

do what you love and do what you like and that will help you build confidence okay so all right we'll get into this later but part of the homework is going to be being super super open about what you love and

doing doing whatever the [ __ ] you want to do and not listening to anybody anybody else for one single day and I just so and I it's going to be hard it's going to be very very difficult because

a lot of you guys comply and listen to every single person's opinions from whether it's social media whether it's just friends your peers saying stuff it's all getting drilled in your head that hey this is this is the social Norm

you must comply you must do this you must do that don't listen to that be your own human be your own self learn to love and enjoy life your own life right don't listen to what these other people

are saying who wants to live a life where they're constantly afraid of what other people are going to say about them what other people think about them that is not a good life to live you guys that is a terrible it's a terrible Life to

Live okay so your homework is literally just be yourself and do what you love to do okay listen to what anybody else is to say put an out put on an outfit that you [ __ ] love that you feel comfortable

you feel you feel happy to be in you feel confident to be in and then also be confident in your own opinion somebody asks you a question and you already know how they feel about that type of topic

trust me I've been there before I've altered my answer based off of the type of people that I'm talking to I've done that before do I do that now right because I'm confident and I don't care right an opinion in his opinion

right every single person in this world is going to have different opinions on different subjects and that's just something that we have to come to accept and the great part about this you can start teaching people other about other you

can start teaching people about this as well right someone says how do you feel about this or like just ask you a question and you literally just voice your opinion straight up just being completely honest people will one

respect you and then also be like yo like like they'll take it as like a sign of confidence they'll be like okay interesting like I guess so like that makes sense like people will will respect you for doing

this type of stuff so that's what I want you guys to focus on this this will help build your confidence and how how are these small little things that were just like building on top of just our life

our psychology our headspace because you need to have a great headspace a great mindset in life to benefit in trading because if you're not if you don't have a good headspace in in [ __ ] mindset in life you will never be able to

benefit from Trading okay you won't be able to be profitable you won't be able to confidently place a trade because how do you expect to be able to be confident enough to place your own trade right against right every bro there's

literally thousands of people you go long there's millions of people going short at that same time okay right you need to be confident in your own decisions with in life to be able to be confident in your own decisions while

trading okay it's directly correlated trust me it is directly correlated if you are not confident with yourself and how you hold yourself in public in life you this this is not for you you won't be able to do trading it just quite

simply will not work for you if you are unable to um if you're unable to be confident in yourself in life because how do you expect if you can't even wear if you can't even wear the clothes that you

want to wear out the door for the day and and feel the eyes of other people looking at you and potentially judging you you have to be okay with knowing that hey people are going to have others of other opinions than me and I have to

be okay with that and understand that their opinion really does not matter about you because that's just what they think not what you think that's what they think and if you are the type person that needs to comply that needs

everybody to love them you're not you're not fit for this you're not okay you're not going to be fit for this whatsoever okay you need to build your own confidence you need to be confident and hold yourself okay

like confidently be able to walk out the door confident in what you're wearing confident in how you talk confident in in in your goals confident um in in what you do in life okay hold yourself up okay be be be someone

that people want to look up to be someone that people want to like will respect right for being able to hold yourself up like that because very few people can do that in this world and the people that do guess where they are at

they're [ __ ] loaded they're breaded they're successful why because they're confident in themselves and they took a risk and they took a chance on themselves because they don't give a [ __ ] about what anybody else says you

know the people that care the people that care about what everybody else says they don't make it far whatsoever why because everybody else everybody else the social Norm guess what what's the what's the normal [ __ ] paycheck that

most Americans get every [ __ ] year 50k bro do you really want to anxiety let's be real you want to be the odd one out here and you have to be okay with that and you have to be confident about

that you have to understand that people are going to look at you weird and people are going to say questions make fun of you okay and you have to be completely okay with that knowing where you're going in life and knowing that

them criticizing you and them saying that stuff they're staying right here while while you making a change you're climbing up bro you're going higher and higher way better and you know it's funny they're saying that [ __ ] about you

they're they're making fun of you they're bullying you you know why because they don't have the courage to do it themselves they're self-conscious about themselves so what are they doing they're taking it out on you because they want you they don't want you to

make it they don't want to see you doing what you actually love they don't want to see you actually succeeding no they want you to be right even with them they want you to be hey be normal do this do

that you're not allowed to do that who's to [ __ ] say who's to [ __ ] say that no one exactly all right so that being said a little quick little video for you guys today all right your homework go

outside [ __ ] be confident with yourself be confident and every single thing you do today take a risk today okay go outside and and [ __ ] get something done bro be productive be confident in every single decision that

you make all right so with that being said I'll see you guys tomorrow we get we get into more trading stuff hopefully you guys are enjoying this oh and also for your homework document it document how you felt on that day write down

write down how it made you feel when you were when you were being confident okay how did that feel and I guarantee you guys will feel good you'll probably feel a little bit shitty when people start you saying why are you doing that why

are you doing that why are you doing this why are you doing that say because I want to because this is what I want to do plain and simple they won't be able to say anything oh he's doing it because he wants to

that that's kind of weird I've never heard him say that before exactly make people make people look at you like what got into him today what got into her today okay so that being said get something done be

confident hold yourself with some self-respect do what you [ __ ] want to today and make sure people know that you are doing that and and even strive to get those looks and those comments from people okay strive for

that because that means you're you're headed in the right direction okay so with that being said I'll see you guys tomorrow peace
