    How Much Money Do You REALLY Need to Start Trading Stocks?

    Welcome to season 4, episode 3 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast! We're covering a common beginner mistake: thinking you need a ton of cash to start trading stocks profitably. I break down how much you really need, why account size isn't the barrier you think it is, and how to get started smartly. Resource: Join our FREE Skool group: https://www.skool.com/trading Key Topics:  Account Size Is Relative—It Doesn't Determine My Success I used to think I needed tens of thousands to trade, keeping me in analysis paralysis. Success is about percentages, risk management, and growth. I start with under $1,000 and scale up from savings or side income. I focus on consistent gains—a 10% return is the same skill on any account size. Use brokerages like Robinhood or Fidelity with low minimums and fractional shares for high-priced stocks like Tesla. Our Skool poll shows half beginners started under $1,000, proving it's relative. Stocks Are Safer Than Options for Beginners Options tempt small accounts with leverage but are complex and risky due to time decay and volatility. Studies say 70-90% of options traders lose money; events like the October 10th crypto crash show risks. I recommend stocks with momentum—no expirations let me hold through dips. Fractional shares allow 1-3% risk per trade. Avoid options' manipulation and max pain. Trade to Grow Wealth, Not for Instant Income Treating trading as a job for bills leads to emotional risks like chasing wins or panic-selling. I focus on long-term compounding with a plan to control emotions. Trade only affordable money, build other income to fund accounts. Even small accounts grow steadily without rushing. Takeaways Start small, focus on percentages, add funds over time. Choose stocks over options for safety and ease. Trade for long-term wealth, not quick cash.

    Stop Losing Money - Master Your Mind with These Trading Psychology Hacks

    Welcome to season 4, episode 2 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast! We're talking trading psychology, breaking down five emotional traps that sabotage your trades and sharing practical fixes to help you trade smarter and more profitably. Resource: Join our FREE Skool group: https://Skool.com/trading Key Topics: Five Emotional Traps & Fixes Greed: Chasing BreakoutsProblem: I see a stock soaring (like Tesla at $460 resistance), and FOMO pushes me to buy at the peak, only to face a reversal and loss.Why It Happens: A scarcity mindset, dopamine-driven hype, and anchoring bias (fixating on a stock’s recent surge) cloud my judgment.Fix: I cap my weekly trades, focus on long-term disciplined trading, and avoid chasing quick profits. I stick to charts, not news or social media hype.Fear: Selling Too EarlyProblem: I panic-sell at support or cut winners short, like when I sold Tesla at $100 in 2022-23, missing the rebound.Why It Happens: Loss aversion, tying my self-worth to trades, and worrying about looking foolish drive irrational exits.Fix: I journal every trade, noting why I entered or exited. Reflecting on whether decisions were logic-based or fear-driven helps me trust my strategy.Anger: Revenge TradingProblem: After a loss, I feel cheated and jump into risky trades to “win back” money, often digging a deeper hole.Why It Happens: Entitlement bias makes me think the market owes me, triggering impulsive, fight-or-flight trades.Fix: I take a break—a day or a week—to reset emotionally. Stepping away or going for a walk keeps me rational.Overconfidence: Ignoring SignalsProblem: After a winning streak, I feel like a market genius, ignoring charts or skipping stop-losses, like buying at resistance despite signals.Why It Happens: The illusion of control, confirmation bias, and the Dunning-Kruger effect (overestimating my skills) lead to risky moves.Fix: I stick to my strategy rules, using cues like sticky notes to remind myself to buy only at support and stay disciplined.Weak Discipline: Abandoning StrategyProblem: I ignore my rules, swayed by impulse, market noise (like X posts), or decision fatigue, leading to inconsistent trading.Why It Happens: Present bias makes me chase instant gratification over long-term goals, especially without clear rules.Fix: I use a pre-trade checklist for entries, exits, and risk management. Following my strategy (shared in the Skool group) keeps me on track. Takeaways Start Small: I pick one fix, like journaling or a checklist, to tackle emotional traps.Join the Community: I invite you to Skool.com/trading for my free strategy course, rules, and community support.Stay Disciplined: I focus on charts, stick to my strategy, and avoid emotional trading to boost profitability.

    How Your Mind Sabotages Your Trades: Unlocking the Psychology of Successful Trading

    Welcome to season 3, episode 11 of the Day Trading for Beginners Podcast! In this episode, we talk about the critical topic of trading psychology, exploring a powerful quote from Jared Tendler’s book, The Mental Game of Trading: “The charts are a mirror that reflects your inner self.” We discuss how your emotions, biases, and mental blocks shape your trading decisions and how Tendler’s system can help you turn psychological flaws into strengths. Note: This episode was originally released under the podcast name Day Trading for Beginners, now rebranded as Stock Trading for Beginners. Resources: Join our FREE Skool group: https://Skool.com/trading Download the 6 Month Blueprint: https://stokestrades.com/blueprint Key Topics Discussed Introduction to Trading PsychologyWhy technical know-how isn’t enough—your mindset can make or break your strategy.The importance of joining our free Skool community (skool.com/trading) to learn and share experiences.Overview of The Mental Game of Trading by Jared Tendler, a top mental performance coach who applies lessons from competitive golf to trading.The Quote: “The Charts Are a Mirror That Reflects Your Inner Self”Charts provide objective data (prices, volume, trends), but your reactions reveal emotions like fear, greed, or hesitation.How your internal world—biases, past traumas, or impulses—distorts your interpretation of market data.Using charts not just for market analysis but as a tool for self-reflection to turn losses into lessons.Jared Tendler’s ApproachTendler frames common trading mistakes (chasing, overtrading) as psychological, not technical, issues.Emotions like greed, fear, and anger are root causes of trading errors.Practical tools like journaling, visualization, and mapping emotional patterns to build mental resilience.Treating emotions as data to identify triggers and correct flaws.Real-World ExamplesExample 1: A trader hesitates during a breakout pattern due to fear from past losses, missing an opportunity and feeling frustrated (“tilt” in poker terms). Tendler’s system suggests journaling emotions and using pre-trade routines to build confidence.Example 2: An overconfident trader takes an oversized position on a head-and-shoulders pattern, amplifying losses. Reflection reveals a need for validation through wins, not strategy.Actionable Tips to Apply Tendler’s PhilosophyJournal Your Feelings: After each trade, note how the chart made you feel (stressed, excited, etc.) and compare it to the objective data (price, volume).Spot Emotional Triggers: Identify chart patterns (e.g., sudden drops or breakouts) that spark fear, greed, or FOMO (fear of missing out).Stay Calm with Visualization: View charts as neutral tools, like a mirror, to avoid emotional reactions.Maintain Emotional Balance: Avoid overtrading or overconfidence by keeping a steady, patient mindset.Send me some feedback!

    Why I Quit Going All-In on Tesla - A Beginner’s Trading Lesson

    Welcome to season 3, episode 10 of the Day Trading for Beginners Podcast! I'm Tyler Stokes and in this episode, I share my journey of moving away from being an all-in Tesla investor. After achieving over 65% portfolio gains in just a few months of trading real money, I’ve learned valuable lessons about diversification, technical analysis, and avoiding the pitfalls of putting all your eggs in one basket. This episode reveals why I shifted my investment strategy and how technical analysis transformed my approach to trading. Disclaimer: This is not financial advice—just my personal story to help you reflect on your own investment decisions. Note: This episode was originally released under the podcast name Day Trading for Beginners, now rebranded as Stock Trading for Beginners. Resources: Join our FREE Skool group: https://Skool.com/trading Download the 6 Month Blueprint: https://stokestrades.com/blueprint Portfolio updates: Trading Challenge 2025 Key Topics Discussed: The All-In Tesla TrapWhy I was captivated by Tesla’s innovation, leadership, and growth from 2020 onward.The risks of having my entire portfolio in one stock, despite riding Tesla’s surge.The volatility and opportunity costs (e.g., missing Nvidia’s 10x growth from 2022–2025).Lessons from Market VolatilityTesla’s rollercoaster ride: From $400 to $100 and back, losing 75% at its low.Realizing fundamentals don’t drive short-term stock prices—price charts do.How a basic understanding of market structure in 2022 could have signaled a pivot.The Power of Technical AnalysisDiscovering price charts as the real-time story of a stock’s performance.How charts signaled Tesla’s trouble before bad news hit, unlike fundamentals.Using support, resistance, and momentum to time entries and exits.Why Diversification WinsNo single stock stays the best forever—diversification reduces risk and stress.Shifting from dismissing diversification to embracing it as a strategic tool.Building a core portfolio of 5–10 stocks with strong momentum, guided by technical analysis.Rebalancing My PortfolioReducing Tesla exposure in tax-efficient accounts (e.g., TFSA, RRSP) to avoid heavy taxes.Selling at resistance zones and buying other stocks at support zones.Maintaining Tesla as my largest position while exploring other high-potential stocks.Lessons LearnedConviction in one stock has limits—flexibility and informed decisions win.Regularly assess charts, rebalance when needed, and prioritize diversification.The market rewards adaptability, not blind loyalty to a single stock.Why This Matters If you’re heavily invested in one stock (Tesla or otherwise), my journey might encourage you to rethink your approach. Studying price charts and embracing diversification can open the door to a more resilient financial future. Technical analysis helped me break free from the all-in mindset, and my trading strategy—outlined in our Skool group—has driven my success in 2025. Send me some feedback!

    Up 65% in 4 Months! - My July Trading Update Awaits

    Welcome to season 3, episode 9 of the Day Trading for Beginners Podcast! I'm Tyler Stokes from StokesTrades.com, and in this episode, I'm excited to share my portfolio gains—up 65% after four months of trading real money—and discuss the momentum trading strategy that's been working for me.   Note: This episode was originally released under the podcast name Day Trading for Beginners, now rebranded as Stock Trading for Beginners. Resources: Join our FREE Skool group: https://Skool.com/trading Download the 6 Month Blueprint: https://stokestrades.com/blueprint Portfolio updates: Trading Challenge 2025 How Momentum Trading Works: 1. Spot Opportunities: Find stocks in strong uptrends on daily/weekly charts (higher highs, higher lows). Use TradingView screeners or Grok to build a watchlist of high-potential stocks (e.g., crypto, AI, tech). 2. Buy at Support: Enter at proven support zones where indicators align (Ichimoku Cloud, moving averages, Fibonacci retracements, Gann Squares). Start with 1-3% positions to manage risk—never buy at resistance. 3. Ride and Accumulate: Hold as stocks rise, adding shares at new support zones during pullbacks. Cap exposure at 10% per stock. Ride momentum for weeks/months, avoiding premature sells. 4. Exit Strategically: Sell when momentum fades (broken support, flat trends, lower highs). Take partial profits or exit fully to lock in gains and rotate capital. Why It Works: This low-stress strategy avoids emotional traps like FOMO or overtrading, focusing on patience and high-probability setups. It’s ideal for beginners with busy schedules, but trading carries risks, and results aren’t guaranteed. Send me some feedback! Join Our Free Community on Skool: https://www.skool.com/trading
