Hello BBT Family, I've been trading now for a little under a year and must admit I've only been with Bear Bull Traders from the beginning. After reading Andrew's book I tried the room out, liked it, and never looked back. Now that I'm approaching a year. I thought it would be a fun topic to see what everyone else was looking for in a chat room when they came to Bear Bull Traders. Your experience can be from any chatroom, actually I'd really enjoy hearing about other rooms as well, however please no negative stuff. Just looking specifically for things that drew you in to a particular room. For example: One of the things that drew me to BBT was the structure of that Chat. I like that they have a premarket show, then Andrew trades the open for all the opening range traders, then other moderators with varied trading strengths come on throughout the day to help during specific time frames. So I knew I'd have activity and guidance all day. Hope you all enjoy the topic. And stay Green. Thor Young - Lifetime Member @ BBT

Week 24 Recap Very pleased with my trading this week. I made a couple mistakes late in the week that hurt my P&L but with a win percentage at my yearly average and still having a green week is very encouraging. I’ve decided to go back live and try and work on 3R trades which should be good enough to slowly grow my account. · Weekly stats o 2.9 planned R/R (Goal: above 3.0) [Previous Week: 2.3] o 24/24 100% (Goal: above 80%) [Previous Week: 67%] o $15.23 (Goal: $250) [Previous Week: $12.10] o 3/3 50% trades with the trend (Goal: 100%) [Previous Week: 67%] o 2/6 33% Non-optimal Entries (Goal: 0%) [Previous Week: 17%] o 0/6 0% Letting Losers Run (Goal: 0%) [Previous Week: 25%] o 0/6 0% No Setup (Goal: 0%) [Previous Week: 25%] o 33% true win percentage (Goal 45%) [Previous Week: 40%] · Highlights o Two green days in a row. o Single winners were the biggest in sim YTD. o No losers past my stop loss o All trades were my setups. · Ongoing things to work on o Still working on bringing my win percentage up to 45% o I need to do a better job of logging my emotional state before the market opens. o Need to work on getting two 3R winners in a day.

I am lucky to have found BBT as my Trading community. I didn't try any other chatrooms before joining BBT. Just one and done. After joining BBT, I tried couple of other chatrooms to see what they are doing. I felt, just like the Market, some of these guys play with someone's greed (''you can make millions'') and FOMO ('discounted membership for first 50 participants/for next 15mins with clock ticking'). There is no such thing in BBT, they don't play with my emotions. It is open to all to try out and join if they like. Respect for the members and Open/encouraging environment for female traders are a big PLUS. And I agree to all the points mentioned above, so not going to repeat them. I would recommend BBT to anyone any day. What I would like to see: Would like, atleast once in a while, Lifetime membership seminars and Live classes conducted in different time zones, considering we have Traders from across the world and we are growing. Currently this is focused to EST and PST. Record the open : Post the premarket, can we have recording of the first 30mins Live action, posted in Membership section. Andrew's recaps are verygood, but since lot of traders take their own trades at the open, they miss what Andrew is saying Live. +1 for Andrew to stick around and provide his thoughts about the market and price action, even if he doesn't take a trade. May be in the afternoon. Andrew can recognize the patterns like noone else. For e.g - Everyone knows Andrew cuts his losses to a minimum, but he also adds to his position sometimes, when the price goes against him. What does he see exactly?. Mentorship program- I think we had one, but no followup program. Would like to see more Mentorship programs. William's Trade reviews - Extend it to one more day, hope William is not going to hate me for this. May be mid-day, because not much action and most guys/gals are done with their trading already. Buddy program - may be a platform for Trading buddy program.

14.Jun.19 - DASTrader - BT On my watchlist today, I had $INTC, $FB, $MU, $NVDA and from the Lowfloat $ARQL & $FVRR (recent IPO). I was watching $FB (which had gapped up while the market was down) and $ARQL (low price, nice premarket) at the Open. Trade1: $FB bounced off all MAs and VWAP, couldn't break down. 1min formed a hammer, and I took it long. Stop was 40c (VWAP), got nice move up, partialed twice. Price was still above Support levels, but suddenly dumped and I got out BE. small profit. May be the 50MA on daily was too strong resistence. Trade2: $FVRR, noticed 3 candle setup forming on 2 mins, Took it long on the 4th candle, was above all MAs. was pretty confident about this, but price dumped after $44 and I got out at VWAP. This is recent IPO and there was no resistence above, I guess $44 acts as a strong Even$ Techlevel. P.S On hindsight, it is really not a 3c setup, because the 2nd candle has huge top wick on 2min. In the perfect 3c setup the highs of first and second candle are almost the same. I guess, this is just 5min ORB. I had a $CSCO or $MSFT trade where I made similar mistake before. When the 2nd 5min is a Shooting star or a Hanging man (with narrow body), the price tends to reverse. Trade 3: $CRON - Main Trade. CRON was below 50,20 and 9 MA on the daily. It broke down at the open, I waited for the pullback. Formed 3c setup on the 5min (which is also 15min ORB). I went long 3 positions, didn't give me lot of move, as I chased the entry a bit. I got out around 1R. Trades 4: Took a small short in $AMD on the VWAP pullback. $AMD was bearish on the daily (below 9MA), so it helped a bit. I was targeting 20MA, but took AON at 2R. I like this VWAP pullback trades in $AMD. Almost perfect Trade. Entry Price - $30.39, stop - 10c, Target - $30.19 (2R). MFE price - 30.09(3R) Trade 5: Took another small trade in $CRON for the bounce off of 50MA on 1min (also 20 in 2min and 9 in 5min). I like these MA bounce trades. Risk was only 5c, it gave me 2R, I wanted more, got stopped out at BE.

Friday 6/14/2019 I had a well-being score of 7/10 this morning. My nerves were OK. Since it is a Friday I am trading half shares. I took two live trades with FB and AMD. FB looked strong in the premarket and had really good opening volume. It made a small hammer with 1min candle and I went long when it broke premarket high. I took my 1st partial when it reached $181, but my fill was so bad it filled almost at B/E (22 cent slide!). I took another partial when it clearly broke $181. Then another partial at $181.41 daily level. Just before my next partial it reversed and I exited when it broke the $181 price. I have to admit that AMD was more of a FOMO trade. I wanted to take a 2min ORB but I was still trading FB. The 4th 1min candle tested its own bottom wick 3 times. When it bounced the 3rd time I went long. My stop out level was tight, the bottom of the 4th 1min candle. About one minute later it broke that level and I exited. My score card for today: What I did good today: My P/L is flat for the day, that’s my best Friday since CMEG had those tech issues and I couldn’t trade. How did I challenge myself today? Traded with half share size. For some reason that was difficult today. What I did bad today: Traded on FOMO. What can I do better tomorrow: I shouldn’t have been even looking at my other stocks while trading FB. Thus, I wouldn’t even had the FOMO.

This topic gives an opportunity to share our experiences or may be even expectations for any new additions to be considered for trade room. Waiting to read more on this! As I have not been with any other trading communities before, so I can't compare. Can share my experience with BBT Trade Room, though it’s been only 2 months with BBT-Lifetime in my 3 months of day trading experience which started by reading Andrew's both the books(these are not just words in the air as we hear it a lot) I started trading LIVE directly by just reading those books alone, applying the strategies explained and observing the patterns. Not going for any other day trading books till I expertise in those strategies and techniques explained in those books. Consistency is very important for me as I am planning to extend day trading for living. Andrew always say- you don’t need to know each and every strategy, where there are hundreds or thousands of those (which may take full life time to experiment and gain expertise in all those, so no more time left for living lol). Once you find the strategies you understand well (as it differs from person to person, depending on their analytical background) and feel comfortable applying those successfully on a smaller share size and later increase as you build your psychology. Later you may try new strategies or trading approaches etc… Trade Room- I feel it is in a very structured manner based on how the day trading flows in a day and meet everyone’s trading related needs and support. I personally felt overwhelming the first month after joining BBT with all the information, different trading styles etc….Just finding your spot is all needed. Below is how I look at the structure which starts with: Carlo's Pre-Market Show- Finding range of stocks that are gaped up/down and are in play for that day and setting up support/resistance levels and quick news highlights. With the range of stocks starting from low, mid to higher price range to support all different levels of groups in the community. Andrew’s Golden Hour Show- With all his positive energy and his quick trades sharing live and being open to share his P/L(result of the process he goes thru), wakes up everyone in the AM.( Caffeine free lol..) Norm's Golf Trading Show- With his high price stock trading style, supporting those groups is amazing. Peter's Mid-Day Show- As he balances between mid to higher price range with mid-day reversal strategies till closing of the market, which supports those groups is fascinating. Brian's Swing Trades Discussion on Mondays- With his great knowledge and experience on trading, It not only supports ST group, also gives others a perspective of general understanding on stocks from different sectors play with variations and etc… William's Trade reviews (everyone’s favorite) and Robert’s outstanding support with his type of trends/wedges strategies and his support on DAS platform thru the forums is amazing. Besides all those the member’s sharing trade reviews on YouTube are great learning. Outside of the day trading there could be more to explore/expand on Swing, Options puts/calls etc…which is beyond the scope of my knowledge.

Thor, we are glad you chose Bear Bull Traders! I would also like to encourage traders to give feedback on this topic. I know there are many other trading chat rooms available to all of us traders. Whether you have researched other rooms, joined for a trial period of had been members for any significant length of time, we would love to hear any insights you have so we can improve your experience here with us at Bear Bull Traders. When I was first starting out trading, I joined a couple different rooms, and found things that fit my trading personality in all the communities I found, but there were also major drawbacks from the type or securities traded, live trading support, educational content and the overall environment of the room. So again, will love to hear what you all think about this topic.

Not sure if this is the right forum for this as I couldn't find one where it "fit" the criteria perfectly, so move it as needed. In the documents linked below is an example trading plan that I created many months ago from various sources, as well as my own thoughts. I've developed many business plans in a similar fashion and the way I get the most done is by typing up a list of questions, printing it out, and writing (or typing) thorough answers to those questions. You then wait a few days (reset your mind) and return, putting those answers into concise statements / paragraphs to form the basis of your overall business plan. For a trading plan, you may never do the second part (putting it into concise paragraphs), that's OK. The intended purpose of a plan (for business or trading) is to make you think and develop a vision for what you feel is success and how you intend to go about reaching your goal. Just like a business plan, you may deviate from it, you may go slower than you projected, and / or you may alter it along the way. It doesn't matter how you use it after you create it, it's just there to put you back on the tracks if you come off or serve as a reminder to the longer term goal if you're having a short term struggle. Some Tips: - I encourage you to really reflect on your answers, get granular with them, the more you get out of your head now is the more you'll be able to power through in the end. My last major business plan I wrote risk-aversion scenarios for coupe d'etat's (it was for the Middle East) and an assortment of what-if's related to the region - you won't need that here (although, maybe you have terrible in-laws and it's not out of the question), but it helps to think complex (possible) scenarios through as you'll be more prepared to react if it happens. - Set realistic goals. I took a few psychology courses on goal setting at university for my degree and they all seem to agree. Break the goal up into small obtainable steps and build momentum. So don't say "I want to be a billionaire in 5 years," reframe it as "In 5 years, I'd like to have my house paid off entirely, and I'm going to do it by ...". A goal too far out of reach or without structure is useless, even if there's a slim chance. The document has questions for the following sections: - Introduction --> Just a brief overview of what's intended. - Overall Goals & Strategy --> Questions regarding your intended trading goals and strategy. - Education / Evolution --> Questions about how you're going to gain knowledge and evolve to meet your goals. - Psychology --> Questions for how you plan to deal with the psychological aspects of trading. - Timeline --> Your intended timeline of milestones. How you plan to progress through it. - Future You Statements --> Prejourney Statement (message to yourself to be read after you've completed the journey, written in the future-sense like you're talking back at yourself.) - Time Statements --> Done at certain intervals, a quick journal of your progress so far. - After Completion Statements --> Area for you to reflect after this leg of the journey is over and you're about to start the next.

June 14, 2019 - $AMD (Goal, Stop) Did not get much sleep last night, so I decided to be a little cautious today with my trading and only trade if I got a good setup. $MU did provide a good risk to reward on a 15 ORBO, but the choppiness at the open turned me off so I stayed away. I instead focused on $AMD, I was looking for an entry on a 5 minute orb, but if failed hold the VWAP and broke down. I figured I would get another opportunity for a 15 minute ORBD, if it pulled back to VWAP. I got an opportunity around 0650 and took an entry after it rejected the 20 EMA and broke below the 9 EMA. After my entry it pulled back again and started to chop around, so I got out around my entry because the 5 and 15 minute charts were both indicating that it was reversing direction and it was not selling off as quickly as I wanted. I still had the intention that if it rejected the 20 EMA again and lost the 9 EMA, I would enter again. shortly after it did and re-entered took some partials and I eventually got all out as I had to go work. Poor planning on my part as I should have entered a range order for my last little bit instead of just taking it all out. The stock eventually went to my profit target.

Thanks for this! I really love those points, I'd actually emphasize on recording the first 30 mins of Andrew trading live, I do hear Andrew and listen to his thoughts while trading but I don;t pay any attention to him sharing his screen as I'm busy with my own charts, watching how he traded after we're done with trading will be much useful. The recap is really helpful and summarize it, but on recaps we only see candles, we don't see the price action itself, the exact entry, was it while the candle was going up? or on a red candle at the pullback, I'd love to watch his trading recorded somewhere in the education center Mentorships will also be amazing! Would love to see another one coming Thanks

Looks like we took the same trade. But you partialled out way better. Nice hold through the first pull back. That is where I bailed out.

Yep, I took the same AMD trade. I think one or two of the moderators did as well (with the same result). I guess the AMD siren call was too strong for everyone today.

Friday June 14th, 2019 Sleep: 7 hours. Mood: good, ready to trade. As soon as the market opened, i got really fearful for some reason. the first trade i took was an ORBU in AMD. i did not like this trade at all. i did the exact opposite of yesterday where i waited for a new 2min in my favor before jumping in. not at all happy about my entry. it went against me immediately and i got stopped out in 2 minutes. bad trade. tried to flip my position but i wanted too high a price that the market wasn't giving so i missed the move down and i was too worried about the price action to get in on the short side when it came back to the 200 MA twice. i'm feeling off today. GOOD: position size and got out RFI: have to wait for a break or sign of clear resistance before getting in. MOOD: disappointed and fearful. CONSISTENT: yes. Last trade of the day was BYND. i got in on a weird ABCD where the A and C were the same spot. i took way too big of a stop and only got two shares so the stock had to move to $164 for me to get 2:1 R/R. which i was not happy about. it moved in my favor a good way and then starting trending down on the 5min. i got back in another 8 shares on a new 5min high for a much better R/R on the reward side but way too close to my entry on the stop loss side. It worked for a second and i'm happy with my entry but it did a 2min engulfing and then dumped a little past my range stop so i lost a little more than i wanted but i respected my stop. the first trade wouldn't have worked either so it would have been a 1R loss regardless. GOOD: traded setup, added to my position on another setup RFI: added too much so it didn't have enough room to let the trade work MOOD: fine. CONSISTENT: yes. All in all, not a bad day. AMD wasn't great but i'm fine with my loss in BYND. What i did good today: took setups, didn't get emotional over the losses What i did bad today: traded even though i was feeling a lot of fear What can i do better tomorrow: don't trade if you're feeling strong emotions that would negatively effect your trading.

I've only been a part of BBT for around 3 weeks and have absolutely been loving it! All the moderators along with Andrew have been very helpful with any questions I've had and the experience I've gained from other members and seeing moderators + Andrew trade live is invaluable!! I also agree with Aiman. Being able to see Andrew stick around once a week or something for another 20-30 minutes or an hour would be awesome! Hearing his thoughts on his trades and seeing the way he manages things and watches stocks is so incredibly helpful and where I feel I learn so much. Being able to extend that not with him necessarily trading longer as Aiman mentioned but just hearing him discuss what he's seeing or give input to what others are seeing/watching would be really cool and I think lots of other members might enjoy this learning opportunity as well.

I joined BBT at May 2018, I only knew about BBT from Andrews book as there was nothing written about BBT at trading review sites, anyway, after the first month I decided to get a lifetime membership, not only because of Andrews trades and helpful lessons, but mostly because of the members here and the moderators, I got so much help during the whole trading day, and I still get it whenever I ask for it! Everyone here is so kind and experienced in his own way. I won't re-write all the positive stuff we've here as it's all written above. I don't know if it'll be possible, but it'll be really great to have Andrew sticking around with us for a bit longer time every now and then! He's an amazing trader, and most of the time it's more than enough for him to be done for the day in 15 mins xD. I really love how he reads the price action, and I'd love to see him talking about the stocks and what he expects them to do + why out of his trading time, once he's done with his trading maybe even once a week? As an additional session xD. Just sticking to the chatroom, and hearing his thoughts outloud for around an hour without him being in any trade + discuss that with the chatroom, cuz I know that it's tough to do all that while being under pressure of being in multiple positions while trading. Other than that, this chatroom is really helpful and I really doubt that I'd have been able to get where I got to now without being a part of this chatroom!

you took your entry on the second trade right on my exit. i should have held on. great job!

Hi wpicotte, You are absolutely right! BBT is a wonderful community to be apart of, the learning environment blew my expectation. I thank you for your reply. Take care!

I joined BBT in Jan 2017 with no prior trading experience, and no prior trading education other than Andrew's book. As you'd expect, it was a bewildering experience to see the live fire of the trading environment. Andrew and the BBT mods eased that entry tremendously through their chatroom commentary, on the forum, in email, and the YT recaps. Since that time, additions of the pre-market show, ADog's epically-detailed trade reviews, and everything else that comes with a BBT membership only serve to increase learning opportunities offered by this community. The BBT style never fit my personality, and even early on when I was overwhelmed by "unknown unknowns", this was intuitively evident. I therefore began to explore the universe of potential approaches to trading, in search of something more matched to my strengths. My single desire for the community, then and now, is a greater diversity of discrete trading styles / systems, led by experienced traders. I know from conversations held with other members, as well as comments in chat, that not everyone is so lucky to begin their trading journey with with BBT. This truly is a place geared towards community and education. I have not found BBT's level of camaraderie anywhere else, and regardless of where your trading journey takes you, there is absolutely no better place to begin than right here. If the style suits your strengths, it has all that you need to become a great trader.

Desire Makes Slaves Out of Kings. PATIENCE Makes Kings out of Slaves. The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried. DON'T GIVE UP GUYS! To Everyone who has helped me so far as I begin my journey, Thank you. This community has been truly special.

I've posted my setup before but I wanted to tidy my desk and invite a few friends this time.

Thank you! Please go here for team highlights.

I will try to add something new to this thread (so many great comments): 1. Access to Benzinga, the scanners and real conversation about what we're seeing and potentially how to interpret them (thanks Carlos and Norm) 2. Fairly in-depth coverage of financial news and some suggestions about how stocks have traded in the past (thanks Norm) 3. I have read three or four books on patterns and technical analysis. I have learned more from William than everywhere else combined. 4. The videos are worth the price of admission alone. 5. There are some fundamental differences in approach to trading by the moderators. I truly appreciate and have learned from each and every one of you. 6. The ability to ask quick or in-depth questions no matter how simple or complex, and get answers. This last thing is particularly important: The absence of Bro Culture. Learning how to trade can be very stressful at times. I sincerely appreciate the commitment to inclusion and diversity. In the past, I have made the mistake of trading like Andrew while on sim. I figured out I was being influenced by his behavior, so now, while trading live, I listen to him until the bell, then I turn off the sound. When I am done trading, I turn the sound back on and catch his recap. That has made a world of difference. I still get to learn, I still get to make my own decisions, and I don't feel alone. I really appreciate being part of this group.

Finding a chatroom/community fit is a very personal decision. Does a room match your objectives and trading style enough to spend the time there on a daily basis. For me, I was looking for and found the following in BBT: Camaraderie - Like minded, but diverse group of traders that never fails to put a smile on my face. Insight - Live trade reviews, pattern recognition, market movements, ticker/trade callouts Support - Access to educational resources and real-time question answering I found all of these elements in the BBT community and that is why I am a lifetime member, thanks to everyone for making it so.

Great questions Thor; While I have looked at other communities, I like this community because they educate us all on a daily basis as a positive note. On the other side I like BBT bc they are not trying to sell us stuff all the time. Other communities are in the sales business and are constantly trying to sell members their stuff, programs and materials. I think Andrew is an authentic person, and his support staff is also genuine! The community is constantly growing, expanding and getting better on a daily basis. In my notes, I have a section labeled: what I learned today and most days I pick up at least one new tidbit from the community. Thank you!! I am in this community to LEARN! I want to learn and become a better trader every day and I believe this community (BBT) is the best place for me to be on a daily basis. Keep up the good work.

I have been a member of several chat rooms including a previous tour with this chat group prior to the name change. I left this group originally because I was a new trader and found Andrew's style was not working for me (My issues, not Andrew's). I had read Andrew's first book and was drawn to day trading but was not finding success with the opening range type plays. At the time, I was still uncertain about my preferred style and markets. I had my journey through the wilderness, and eventually started to become more consistent, utilizing both swing and day trades. I started watching BearBull Trader videos on YouTube again, and found a lot of content that resonated with me and so I decided to join up again. While I still trade opening ABCD and ORB type patterns, I have a preference for reversal/reversion patterns. For myself, the most beneficial parts of the membership are: 1. Educational content: The educational content on YouTube was a big reason why I decided to join the group again. I was impressed by how the contributor list had grown since I first tried the group, and the contributors were knowledgeable and professional. I especially like the emphasis on building your own style and paying close attention to risk management. Also, shout out to Robert H and his rants series. Very well done and something that all newer traders should watch. 2. Pre-Market Analysis: The current pre-market show is excellent, and I like that it starts an hour before the open. Too many rooms only start in the last half hour, and that makes everything feel more rushed. I build my own lists as I am listening, and then compare my list with the presenters. 3. Real-Time Pattern Alerts: While I do not follow trades that others will call out, I do try to listen as the presenter calls out indications that stock XYZ is starting to set-up in a particular pattern. This allows me time to investigate for myself. 4. Forums: I think there is a lot to gain by having structured forums for traders to ask categorized questions, rather than expecting the questions to be answered in chat. A lot of rooms do not have forums (or they are under utilized). I was happy to see the BearBull forums are getting used. 5. It is rare to find a room where members are so encouraged to engage and instruct. I have only been a member for a short time, but find the recaps and educational content presented by other members to be very good. It is great to hear about their personal journey's, styles, and strategies. I think BearBull Traders is doing a great job of building community. Many groups try to incorporate more markets (e.g. futures and options) and trading styles to the mix in order to gain members, but I would not personally advocate for that. I like that the group has a shared focus and find that groups which try to serve to many trading styles often do not serve any of them very well.

I have been industrial controls and automation consultant for the last fourteen years. When I was researching into the prospects of being a professional trader, I first came across Andrew's book "ADVANCE TECHNIQUES IN DAY TRADING" which quickly became my guiding star. I then read Andrew's first book "HOW TO DAY TRADE FOR LIVING" and soon after that became BBT lifetime member. I strongly believe Andrew books and BBT community combination is the best in the industry for day trading. Thank you Andrew and BBT Community! Nadeem

For me, it's not so much the chatroom and all the services they offer, but moreso, the people within it. I believe one of the most important parts of a chatroom is to have people participating who are willing to share their experiences and offer mentorship to those who are just starting/struggling. You can call out stocks to trade all day long, but unless traders understand WHY it's being called out, it doesn't really do anyone any long term favors. Sure, you can take the same trades as a more experienced trader, and you might make some money -- but making money following another does not make you a successful trader. That's one of the reasons I prefer BBT over a few other chatrooms I've been in. Andrew and Co. are not only willing, but INSIST on teaching strategies, psychology, etc. to the new/struggling traders and they almost force you to become educated. Oh, and did I mention he doesn't charge me an arm and a leg to learn from him?

My trade setup. Simple and effective. JK

Thanks Thor for posting it. I am keen to learn about these. Although most people probably are part of bear bull traders, but it is interesting to know what are the criteria for the best trading chat room? What are the other communities doing well that we can do better?

This is my gaming setup that I am slowly converting into my trading setup. I built the computer and the cabinets/desk. My twins just turned 1 month old and we got sooo lucky with our first kids being a boy and a girl. My real name is Jordan. I work in a power plant near Dallas, Tx and the powerlines are 345,000 volts

Thank you Andrew for such an amazing community.

Hi all! Here is my setup. Cheers!

I found the Bear Bull Trading Community Oct 2018 by listening to Andrews first book on audibles. I knew absolutely nothing about trading. I've now read both Andrews books many times over. I went straight to the online courses and even found a mentor in the community that I work with weekly. The forum is very helpful as well, I have not come across a topic yet that isn't listed there. I put my trading set up in my sunroom so I can watch the birds after most trades. I have found that it calms me after a winning trade or a losing trade. Something about looking at nature recenters me to keep the focus on my trading plan and helps with calming my emotions. I also keep a list of my rules on the cork board behind me and I often glance at it to be sure I'm not breaking any of my rules. To survive the learning curb and manage risk is key!!!

Hi Andrew, I am really benefiting from the community you and your team have established. I like the morning chat room and the educational videos. Keep up the excellent work. -Devin

I have only been a member of Bear Bull Traders for a month. Everyone is friendly and helpful. In the short time I have been a member I have learned a lot about day and swing trading techniques. Additionally there is abundant advice on tradig platforms, setups, scanners. The things you really need to know about to help be a successful trader. I am very happy that I discovered the Bear BullTraders community through Andrew's and Brian's books. For me, it has been time and money well spent.

Hello Everyone, I am entering my 2ed year with BearBull Traders and have had a great 1st year and am looking forward to many more. I can't say enough on how much has changed in just the last year with BBT and I'm looking forward to seeing what Andrew and the whole team has in store for the year to come. Thank you Team BearBull Traders.

Here is my trading setup ... my trading companion wanted in the shot doing what she does best

I love bear bull trades community. I am a lifetime member with them since 2018. Andrew is a great teacher. I have completed all the classes and training on the simulator. If you are in the market to learn anything specially about day trading and don’t want to get scammed then it is the best community no doubt.

Traders from Venus: Loses are fact with no escape. One said " When you know what not to do in order to not to lose money then you will begin what to do in order to win" so trade smart with no fear! Money will follow you Above is my laptop work desk converted into trade station. Had it setup this week! Went with basics what was recommended in the BBT community site which is good enough to get the job done:)

I'm very happy to be a part of the BBT group. The BBT team is very helpful and all your questions are answered in great detail. Such a diverse range of expertise from all industries around the world. Andrew and his team are genuine people who really want you to succeed. I appreciate all the help so far and look forward to being here a long time. Jeb B

Greetings all! Like trading, the equipment is always evolving. I wanted to resubmit my trade setup as a panorama, since it takes all my attention during the morning. I have been "learning" to trade longer than many members have been on this planet. Bear Bull Traders is one of the best educational training sites around. We can learn more from watching Andrew trade for 45 minutes than a person can learn at a four year university. Trading is difficult and we all have different personalities, strengths and weaknesses. A community like BBT is the best avenue to learn and develop the skill, attitude and discipline to succeed. Also, all the moderators, Carlos, Brian, Norm are great! William H.'s recaps in the afternoon are some of the best trading education for new traders!

I've been a member of Bearbulltraders since October 2018. I read Andrews first and second books in September along with a few other ones and I am really glad I did, his books are well written and well thought out and really gives you the tools and basics and most importantly rules and setups. I then wanted to join the community and see what real trading was like, I didn't even have a platform or setup yet, it took me about a week to realize this was not fake or a money making scheme. I then knew it was going to be something for the long haul and so it made sense to get the lifetime membership and so I did and I have not regretted it since. This is definitely not a get rich quick type of deal, it takes hard work day in and day out, but the people in this community are there to help and make it easier and they have! There is so many people I want to thank from Norm, William H, Robert H, Carlos, Brian, Abiel, I'm sure I'm forgetting people and of course Andrew who of course without him, none of this would be possible. Thank you guys so much! -Seth Aldrich

There are things you learn about your psychological self when you're on you trading journey that you wouldn't otherwise learn; like why you think the way you think, why you see the world the way you do and how that affects your daily life. I would never have connected these parts of me to trading but I've learnt that 80% of being a successful trader is in my thinking, and if I figure out the thinking part, consistency will follow. This has been an incredible realization. Trading is the hardest and best thing I have ever tried to do. Period.

Thanks Andrew for all your help and advice..I am finally starting to take it.This com munity rocks Ive tried a few and this is by far the best value..

Just getting started!

Joined BBT community in September 2017 after day trading 9 months on my own. Wish I had found Andrew’s book and the community earlier, but since then the knowledge gained and support of BBT has been amazing!

Family that trade together stays together. First day trade for the pups. Whatever it takes start 'em young.

One way I started out which really helped me, was to look at my % gains and loss, without worrying about the actual $$$ amount gained or loss. I started with 20 shares, and that might be on a $2 stock. I made 4%! WooooHooo! What a great trade. but I lost money with Commissions and scaling out. But it didnt matter. It made me feel so good to know I made a great % EVEN THOUGH I LOST MONEY. So then the next day I would increase share size by 5-10 shares, and so on and so forth. I figure if I am in this for the long term, short term losses on learning and practicing trades in a live account is well worth it. Maybe I lose $10's-$30's on winning trades, but If I can keep that up while increasing my share size ever so slowly, I will make back that money in the near future with smart trades and bigger shares. I am very confident that it is MUCH easier to increase share size to 1000 shares, and tell yourself you only need 1 good trade and make up all the commissions u have paid out on your small share trades . . .that is a perfect way to lose the game before you even have a chance to play. Hope that makes sense.
