Successful day trading can fly in the face of conventional wisdom | Peter To

EP 098: How successful day trading can fly in the face of conventional wisdom—ex-prop trader, Peter To Before day trading equities, Peter To played a lot of online poker and did fairly well for himself. He then dabbled in markets as an investor, but was soon attracted to OTC stocks after discovering a strange inefficiency… In this episode we spend quite a bit of time talking about Peter’s prop trading experience, both the good and the bad. Trading nihilism and doing everything you supposedly shouldn’t do, why Peter accepts he’s not a “cold blooded assassin” and does trade with the influence of emotion. Plus, we briefly touch on Bitcoin and exchange hacks towards the end too. - - - - - - LINKS - - - - - - · Show notes: https://chatwithtraders.com/ep-098-peter-to/ · More interviews: https://chatwithtraders.com · Free resources: https://chatwithtraders.com/resources · Sponsored by TradeStation: http://www.tradestation.com/ · Twitter: https://twitter.com/chatwithtraders · Facebook: http://facebook.com/chatwithtraders · Instagram: https://instagram.com/chatwithtraders_ · Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/chat-with-traders · Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/chat-with-traders

1. This interviewee is a straight up gambler: This conversation is prepared and rehearsed. Some people have the luck and the serendipity, whereas some whom (we know who we are, don't we Maalik) are not, realize this and keep away, as we, in our communities -- even luck is transitory!
2. Maalik: Are you serious? There are many good, adept teachers on the YouTube trading systems. You need to do your due diligence regarding things of this nature. True, there may be fewer, but, I cannot get into the politics or nature of this; however, I will compile a list of links for you.
3. you should get someone to do an aepisode on you!
4. 👏👏👏
5. I don't think this trader knows how he earns money. He doesn't seem to have a clearly defined strategy, if he had one he would know if a trade is a good one or not.
6. Honestly didn't learn much lol. Buy low, sell high. Short high, cover low. Ride the momentum. I think we all try to do this with success and reduce risk... LOL. But thanks for the upload.

11. Great interview, one of the best that I have heard so far. This guy sounds so real, I could relate personally to his story.
12. This is a great channel, I have been in the markets since the dotcom shit, and I will tell you that there is a lot of bullshit out there. This is a real stuff and the easy talks have a lot of value.

    Stocks are SCAM! so basically you either choose "Market Price" or "limit"
    
    if you select "Market Price" you get it at the market price, if the price goes up you get that price :(
    
    Limit price is not instant, it takes a while....... so less chances of getting the low rate.
14. when is the interview with modern rock coming out? Thanks
15. many prop shops are registered broker dealers and have rules and regs, one of which is posting only round lots
