#1: Intelligence Has Nothing To Do With It

Millionaire Media, LLCYou donât need an MBA or a math genius to be a successful trader.
You donât even need a high IQ or go to college for this stuff.
Why?
Because the stock market isnât always rational. It has a lot more to do with recognizing patterns and managing emotions.
You do however need to study and work hard.
One of my top students, Jack Kellogg, who has amassed 8-figures in career trading profits is a former valet, who never went to college.
Whatâs more important than a formal education?
Putting in the repsâŠ
Putting in your reps is essential if you want to be the small percentage of traders who actually make money.
#2 You Donât Have To Trade All Day

Millionaire Media, LLCIâve discovered that there are only a few good times to trade. Generally the first and last hour of the trading day.
Of course, thereâs been more opportunities lately with all these short squeeze plays. But the first and last hour are still the best times for me.
Whenever I find myself in front of my screen all day, I will get the urge to trade.
And while that might sound like a good thingâŠitâs not.
Why?
Because there arenât always good trading opportunities.
And when thereâs notâŠyou end up overtrading subpar setups and lose money.
I encourage my students to step away from the screen, get outside, and enjoy your life.

#3: You Donât Have To Master The Entire Market

Millionaire Media, LLCI have made an entire career from trading penny stocks.
And while that might sound boring, I can tell you my life isnât boring.
You donât have to know everything about the stock market or know how to trade every strategy or setup.
I donât touch options.
I donât trade crypto.
I donât invest.
And I rarely trade anything other than penny stocks.
Iâm not saying you should trade penny stocks like me.
But master one setup at a time.
My favorite setup right now is dip buying these crazy short squeeze stocks. In a few months it might be something else.
But if you can get good at one or two things, you can have a great career in my opinion.
#4 Risk Management Is More Important Than The Strategy You Trade

Millionaire Media, LLCShort sellers are typically always right.
If you short an overextended crappy stockâŠit will eventually go down.
However, thatâs not good enough.
If you canât endure the squeeze, then youâre likely going to lose money.
Thatâs why risk management is more important than any strategy you trade.
I usually get in and out of trades quickly for a profit.
On the flip side, I cut my losses quickly.
So even though Iâm not exiting my winners close or near the topâŠIâm still excelling because I donât let my losers get big.
Again, if you want to make it, think risk management first.
#5. You Donât Need A Lot Of Money To Get Started
You donât need a lot of money to get started trading.
In fact, the smaller the better.
Why?
Because youâre going to suck your first year.

Why lose a lot of money in the beginning when you donât have to.
Learn with small amounts of money, develop your skills, and scale up naturally.
I started with a few thousand dollars, and many of my now millionaire students did as well.
Success in this game canât be boughtâŠit must be earned.
