Pratique du Shadowing: How I Beat the Mental Game of Trading (After 4 Years of Failure) - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo

I failed four years before I became profitable in trading.

Not only that, I actually failed 20 challenges before I got my first payout.

And one of the things is a lot of you guys

aren't willing to fail for a period of time to learn the lessons to become profitable in the trading craft.

And the maddest thing is, okay, yes, we want to be profitable.

Yes, you want to be profitable as fast as possible.

Yes, you want to make all the money in the world.

But that is not actually the end goal.

The end goal is actually being consistent.

The end goal is actually living the dream of retiring your family members.

The end goal is actually the true meaning of what money can provide.

It's not what money is to do, for example, buy the cars and the watches and all that.

I think, yes, of course, these materialistic things are great.

However, it's more about putting food on the table for our loved ones, letting our kids have a better life than we did when we were younger,

and more importantly, doing it by a trade or a trait

so a trade for trading right a skill set

or a profession where we generally love what we do

and we do what we love

and that's what we call true freedom doing what you want

when you want with who you want and how you want

that is true freedom that is my message from me to you

and in today's video what i want to talk about is

the whole journey of how i failed for four years before becoming profitable

and that each year was very different in failing and

that what did profitability really truly mean

and more importantly what stage are you at

and how can you relate to this and

if you are unprofitable in trading this video is for you to learn learn from my mistakes

and get there quicker and in this day

and age with you know youtube

and the content out there look you don't have to buy

every single course out there look you don't have to actually go

and take every single content out there

but there are videos like this giving you examples and experiences of

that individual for example me of all the things

that happened in those four years

so you can learn from them you can hear our experiences

and it's all for free

so without further ado let's get it what's happening guys Dan Chang here aka champ currently on a flight

and I wanted to make one of these videos

which we called the unfiltered series where we call it like a me to you

and it took me four years to become profitable as the title says

and what we said at the start of the video

but these four years was probably the hardest years of my life mentally to some degree

and I think that you guys can definitely understand this to some degree is

that you do everything in your power absolutely everything in your power

but you can't seem to get it right

and that's where trading is probably one of the most hardest

and most painfulest profession and what does that mean well it can be we can do

everything right but not get rewarded we can take an a plus setup

and still lose the trade which is insane

if you think about it whereas we have been taught from school from sports

and from competitiveness the more we put in

and the more effort we do we will get a result

we will win a game we'll be better we'll perform better ultimately the results will yield

but in trading it's the complete opposite

and it's one of the hardest subconscious things

that we have to train over a period of time is to accept

that we will do the best that we can and still lose money.

Now, let's talk about the first year.

The first year was probably one of the best times in trading

because that's when you make a little bit of money you learn

that oh my gosh like cool like this five pound can be made by just clicking a few buttons

you can literally just sit at home you get all of these buzz something new

and then you learn that was my first year i generally really enjoyed it

and you're learning the markets the fundamentals why they move how they move you make a lot of mistakes

and you learn from them you don't really journal

because I was just literally just trading finding new strategies

and more talking about more than new strategies I actually just tried to find ways

that works more and was more consistent

and more importantly I was actually finding different fundamental factors

that would move the market

that was my first year then I opened an account I

had like 500 pound in it I lost it in

that year but I kind of had a inclined feeling

that I would lose that 500 pound

but I used it as a learning curve you can see as I bought a course

but the course was me to me and I think

that that's probably one of the best investments you can make is to invest in yourself now the second

and third year was a bit rough now the second

and third year was rough

because this is where I generally saw the strategy work I saw my mentor have the strategy work as well

but more importantly I think that it was rough in the sense

that I couldn't make it work and that was so tough

And I find that a lot of people sit within this realm for X amount of time.

For me, it was around two and a bit years, realistically and truly, like being stuck in this rut.

And it would be things like, before prop firms were going about, I had a personal account, right?

So I'd put a £500, £1,000, or even sometimes even just £150 trying to make £5.

Didn't have a lot, but I was just trying to do what I can.

And essentially, doing this led me to not really see the bigger picture.

And I think that's probably one of the biggest problems with having a small account.

you're trying to turn 500 into a living you're trying to turn 500 pound

or a small account into a salary or even multiple figures where realistically even

if you do it's not sustainable now you can turn 500 pound into a hundred thousand

if you're on a win streak and you're lucky and you compound

and you know you get a huge movement but sustainable wise

and consistently you can't do that every day in the market and even if you do what happens is it then

ruins your expectation of trading

so realistically what you really want to be doing is actually

100

trading slowly a bit getting a consistent compound of winning on

101

that account and then adding money to it so that's probably something

102

that i would add to those people who are in

103

that you know second

104

and third year phase where they're constantly trying to increase the volume of their trade

105

and seeing a tiny bit of wins

106

but just keep going all over the place

107

and this is where i went wrong is

108

that i would make all these gains i would do three

109

two three months of you know really good five pounds ten pounds

110

and then I'd get overconfident and try and risk it all to try

111

and flip the account that I've turned 500 into say 2,000

112

or something to try and turn that 2,000 into 20,000

113

because you think you know it all you have the holy

114

grail you're trying to turn the account into something substantial then you start going on auto trader

115

and these websites just thinking all the things you can buy

116

because you kind of think you kind of figured it all out and I know, we've all been there.

117

So if you can shorten it, I'd give you some tips.

118

And some of these tips in

119

that circ in the third year is to number one journal

120

not only journal is to do more of what you're doing right

121

and less of what you're doing wrong I journal but on pen

122

and paper I wish I did a daily report card earlier I wish I did my to do this earlier

123

and I wish I had my playbook now another thing

124

that I considered which I did earlier as well was the fact

125

that I could compound my account add more money into it weekly

126

or I guess right now in one of the best things in the market is you have prop firm accounts.

127

Prop firm accounts, you can do 50,000.

128

For $500, you could buy a 100K account.

129

And if you have the skillset and you can compoundly do it over a period of time, you could literally get like a 10,000 to $20,000 payout, which is exactly where 20 challenges I failed.

130

I can't remember how much that costed me, but I did over 100K in payouts the following year after.

131

So that paid for all the challenges.

132

And even right now, this year, if you're following me, I've been doing this whole challenge of trying to get two, three million funded

133

and a million in payouts I spent three thousand to four

134

thousand dollars on my first stint I lost a lot of challenges

135

but now two payout have already covered all the cost of

136

that not only has that covered all the cost of

137

that now I'm in the net profit I'm just going to use

138

that money and funnel it into the personal account

139

and then what I want to do is get

140

that personal account audited for you guys to tease to set you guys an example

141

so in that second and third year you guys can basically really expedite

142

that by using prop firms they give you really

143

strict rules as well which I love

144

because in the personal account you don't have rules

145

if you break them there are no real percussions the only

146

repercussions you have is you just lose money whereas the repercussions in a prop firm account is you breach

147

and then you lose the sign up fee and all these other things

148

that come with it

149

and then you end up really thinking oh man I should really take this challenge more seriously

150

and that's exactly what happened to me so that's the second

151

and third year so the second and third year was the hardest years

152

because mentally you're going running in circles you have the strategy

153

you just can't make it profitable you're doing everything you think you're doing right

154

and you're still losing trades

155

but you can't accept losing them you can go until you make all of these psychological mistakes

156

and also you make a lot of these really deep mistakes

157

like sitting there just blowing the accounts like i remember just

158

the worst one was growing the account to three thousand pounds three thousand pound

159

that took me three months

160

and then in one day i blew it all i don't

161

care what anyone has to say on social media oh my

162

god he can't trade of course i couldn't trade i was still learning then

163

and everyone goes through that like why are we

164

so quick to bash on people and bash on people

165

when they're down this is part of the journey this is

166

part of the course this is part of the content in youtube

167

and why i love what i do and do what i love

168

and why a team you know it has grown so much

169

so we can create content right now to speak to people

170

like you who are watching who are really really feeling this message to understand

171

that you just need to keep going that is part of the process

172

but it's part of your path where God is teaching you to learn the skill that you've asked for.

173

Remember, if you ask God for a million pounds or a million dollars, he's not going to give you the money, boom, like that.

174

He's going to give you trials and tribulations

175

that you can overcome to have the skill set to be able to make that million dollars.

176

And listen, once you have that skill, you have it for life.

177

And that's one of the biggest things I say.

178

So I really generally want to say this as well, like someone today has just got their first funded account on Funded Next, but this is just one of many stories from our course.

179

And for £299, I don't care what anyone says, £299, that's less than a 100k challenge,

180

that is less than, blow in your account a hundredfold, but for £299, there is a condensed course that I've made, for 30 hours, my strategy,

181

everything, that teaches you A to Z, and now I'm not telling you you have to buy mine, but what I'm trying to tell you is you've got to shift your mindset to try and learn from these people, and learn from these mistakes,

182

and learn as fast as you can to get to the end goal as fast as you can

183

and you've got to be willing to do whatever it takes

184

and you've got to ask yourself what are you willing to do for

185

that how much are you willing to pay for that

186

and I just think it's obscene that nowadays

187

that people who's like I don't want to buy a course of course it's a scam

188

or something like

189

that well hold on the same people who think a course

190

is a scam are the people who think university is going to go

191

and make them a hundred thousand dollars how does

192

that even make sense anyway coming back onto that so the second

193

and third year that's where the struggle happened the fourth year was the revelation

194

and fourth year was the revelation of what i call the compound effect

195

and if you may or may not have seen i love talking about the compound effects

196

but i find that everyone has their breakthrough and

197

that breakthrough starts with something that just goes aha and clicks

198

and what that aha and clicked was was the compound effect

199

and what that said to me is

200

if i could literally just make five pounds

201

or five dollars a day for the whole year that's it five

202

and it doesn't matter if i win lose just five just move on five one trade

203

if it could be one win or two losses

204

and i'll do it in each session now i trade only one session

205

but back then i'll trade in two sessions if i can do that realistically

206

that is more than enough money another thing i thought to

207

myself is every day the market gives an opportunity yes

208

or no yes can i make five days in the markets every day

209

if i took you know

210

if i was lucky enough to take every single trade perfectly could i make five dollars yes or no

211

yes so that was the idea I had and I consistently did

212

that and yes they were losing days yes they were losing period

213

but I did it over a period of time more importantly over three months

214

that account grew and it really gave me the confidence

215

that was net positive to keep trading the fourth month was a losing month

216

but here's the best part

217

and this is where I generally constitute myself as profitable is

218

the fifth month was then profitable then the seventh month

219

and I had one more losing month

220

so in the whole year I had two losing months

221

and 10 winning months but I was net up overall

222

and that's how it's been ever since I've always had around two losing months throughout the whole year

223

and that's where profitability comes it's not about being profitable today

224

it's not about being profitable just for the week it's about being profitable in your career

225

and over in the long run

226

and everything you spent in the past you've made more money and

227

that is net up it's a business at the end of

228

the day it's the same thing how much money have you made how much money are you up by

229

and what is the pen cent increase and what is your skill increase

230

and what is you as a person as a human as a man increased

231

and has become so my final message to you is

232

that believe in yourself forget the haters use the haters as fuel

233

and i hope that this video really blows up to help a lot of people in

234

that struggling phase so they become the trader they said they would be

235

so trader to trader i believe in you make it happen

236

the struggle is what's going to make you not break you you make decision on

237

which one that comes so hope you guys enjoyed the video remember to like share subscribe champ out peace

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
