    How To Become A Profitable Trader In 18 Months!

    Most futures traders don’t fail because they lack a strategy—they fail because they’re trading alone, overtrading, and blowing prop firm accounts with zero discipline. In this episode, Randy breaks down his path from struggling futures trader to consistent prop firm payouts, why your first payout doesn’t mean you’re profitable, and why dry spells between payouts are normal in the prop firm game.We talk real futures trading—VWAP, discipline, boredom, ego, and why the goal isn’t trading all day, but extracting money from prop firms without self-sabotage. We cover budgeting for prop firm challenges, trading from abundance instead of scarcity, and why most traders never make it past this phase. If you’re trading futures, chasing payouts, or trying to pass prop firm evaluations without structure, this episode will reset how you think about trading.This is about losing less, staying funded, and building real time and financial freedom through futures trading—not screenshots.

    Finding EDGE In Markets & Health With Aaron Luce

    In this episode, Austin interviews Aaron, a seven-year trading veteran known for his consistency, liquidity-based strategy, and long-standing relationship with Topstep. Aaron shares how he went from blowing his first account following hype signals to developing a disciplined, reactive trading approach focused on simple liquidity levels and quality over quantity. He emphasizes that consistency is not about winning every day—it’s about being a good loser, eliminating low-quality trades, aiming for repeatable $100–$200 days before scaling, and avoiding the emotional spiral that wipes out weeks of progress. 💊 Edge Supplements – Fuel Your Performance 💰 Use code ASFX for a discount 🔗 https://www.edge.shop/ASFX Connect with Aaron: https://www.instagram.com/aaron.trades/?hl=en Aaron also discusses the launch of Edge Supplements, a new performance-focused nutrition line built specifically for traders to improve focus, energy, and recovery. He and Austin explore how physical health directly impacts execution, why the prop firm landscape has never offered more opportunity, and why daily payouts matter more than chasing “live accounts.” The episode closes with plans for future retreats and a potential Part 2 dedicated entirely to technicals and deep-dive chart breakdowns.

    Prop Trading's Dirty Secret: The Monopoly

    In this episode, Austin and KV break down the chaos surrounding ProjectX pulling out of nearly every futures prop firm, leaving Tradeovate/NinjaTrader — now under Kraken — as the dominant platform. They discuss how this shift impacts traders, why platforms struggle to match ProjectX’s simplicity, and what the future of prop trading may look like in a more monopolized ecosystem. The conversation also touches on crypto prop firms, payout economics, and whether a new ProjectX–style platform could realistically be built. Sponsor: Breakout Prop Link: https://www.asfx.biz/BOP Code: ASFX Sponsor: BlackShirtClub Group CoachingLink: https://www.asfx.biz/bscThey then shift into trading psychology and why most traders quit long before they ever give themselves a real chance. KV shares data showing that 73% of traders in his free community took zero action, prompting a discussion about why people don’t value free resources, the importance of embracing boredom in trading, and the discipline required to stay consistent through both winning and losing streaks. The episode wraps with updates on the Tampa Bootcamp featuring Brian Shannon and a reminder of the power of in-person community for traders who usually grind alone.

    From Blowing $50K to Consistent Futures Trader: Brian’s Breakthrough

    In this episode, Austin sits down with Brian William from Strong Trading to unpack how he went from burning through $50,000 of savings to becoming a consistent ES futures trader. Brian breaks down escaping the boom-and-bust cycle, why sizing down changed everything, and how he built a profitable, repeatable system using hourly levels and continuation trades. They discuss the pros and cons of prop firms vs personal accounts, why most traders only need one good trade a day, and how discipline from the gym — and even hobbies like gaming — keeps your mindset sharp at the desk. Brian shares how the Tampa BootCamp pushed him to quit his job and go full-time, and why community, coaching, and surrounding yourself with the right traders accelerate the path to payouts. Packed with real talk, practical strategy, and a few hilarious gambling stories, this episode is one of the most relatable interviews of the year.

    When Big Money Takes Over Crypto Markets - TraderMayne Interview

    In this episode, Austin sits down with TraderMayne — a decade-deep crypto OG, trader, and co-founder of Breakout Prop — to break down the evolution of crypto, the rise of crypto prop firms, and what it really takes to survive hyper-speed market cycles. They dive into Bitcoin’s institutional takeover, why altcoins can still explode while majors chop, and how tokenization is about to reshape everything. TraderMayne also gives a behind-the-scenes look at building Breakout Prop from launch to acquisition by Kraken in just 19 months — including the challenges of running a prop firm, managing risk during bull cycles, and why reputation is the ultimate differentiator. They unpack A-booking, paying seven-figure months to traders, and why crypto prop is becoming the gateway for everyday traders entering the space. If you want a raw, inside look at crypto markets, prop trading, and building real businesses in a noisy industry, this is one of the most valuable conversations you’ll hear.

    Automated Trading for Prop Firms Explained | TradersPost Deep Dive

    In this episode, Austin sits down with Mike from Trader Post to unpack automation, prop firm scaling, and the future of retail trading tech. Mike shares his wild early-crypto story — including holding nearly 1,000 Bitcoin during the 2013–2014 era — and how that journey led him from valuation investing, to arbitrage, to building automated mean-reversion and trend-following systems. He explains how Trader Post became the “Zapier of trading,” letting traders fire one signal and execute across dozens of accounts, brokers, and asset classes simultaneously. The two dive deep into the prop-firm boom, how automation fits into scaling, and why risk management matters more than any strategy.

    From Gold to AI: How TraderNick Beat the Market in 2025

    In this episode, Austin reunites with Trader Nick for a wide-ranging conversation about Bitcoin, AI, and the markets. They open with the viral theory that Bitcoin could have been a U.S. government creation, exploring how control and transparency intersect in crypto. The two then debate the growing AI bubble — whether it’s overhyped, how it might replace jobs, and if universal basic income could become necessary as automation accelerates. Nick shares how he’s up 28% in 2025 by staying bullish on gold and equities, ignoring political noise, and focusing on macro data over headlines. He explains why bubbles often last longer than expected, comparing the AI boom to the dot-com era, and how discipline, not emotion, has helped him outperform the market. They wrap up with thoughts on prop firms — Austin calling them “the Ozempic of trading” — and the habits traders need to build beneath the surface. Nick also gives an update on his A1 Trading software, which helps traders analyze macro trends across markets. The episode closes with both agreeing that for now, it still pays to “stay with what’s working” until the data says otherwise.Connect with Nick -  @A1Trading   @TraderNick  Sponsor: Top One Futures Link: ⁠https://www.asfx.biz/tof⁠ Code: ASFX for 50% off Sponsor: Tradezella Link: ⁠https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx⁠ Code ASFX for 20% off 🚀 Level Up Your Trading with ASFX — 🎓 Free Futures Course 🔥 Start learning the basics with Futures 101 🔗 ⁠https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/categories/Futures101⁠ — 📊 Custom VWAP Indicator ⚡️Get the exact tool I use to find high-probability setups! 🔗 ⁠https://www.luxalgo.com/asfx⁠ — 🎥 Join My Live Trading Streams 💬 Watch me trade LIVE every morning – breakdowns, setups, and strategy! 💥 Use code ASFX for 50% OFF your first month 🔗 ⁠https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/catalog⁠ — 🏆 Prop Firm Discounts – Save Up to 50% with code ASFX 🔗 Top One Futures → ⁠https://www.asfx.biz/tof⁠    🔗 Take Profit Trader → ⁠https://www.asfx.biz/tpt⁠  —  🧠 Master Your Stats with TradeZella 💰 Use code ASFX for 20% off 🔗 ⁠https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx⁠  — 🧱 Save on Bookmap 🔍 See the order flow like never before 🔗 ⁠https://bookmap.com/members/aff/go/thesilverinvestm?i=144⁠

    How To Master Order Flow & Avoid The Traps That Hold Traders back

    In this episode, Austin sits down with Matt Owen, a former serviceman turned full-time futures trader and founder of Flipping Futures. Matt shares his nine-year journey from crypto and options to mastering order flow on the ES, explaining why resilience, discipline, and risk management matter more than any “get-rich-quick” prop firm pitch. He breaks down how he uses volume profile and order flow for razor-sharp precision and why most traders fail because they treat prop accounts like demo money instead of building good habits with real capital. Together, Austin and Matt dive deep into the mindset of a true professional — focusing on process over outcome, developing repeatability, and learning to win slow. It’s a raw, honest conversation about what trading really demands and how to survive long enough to succeed.
