People are complaining about Tradsey. I guess Tradsey just did something that messed up a bunch of people’s accounts. Um I saw some guy was was complaining about it on X about he I don’t know something happened and it uh it blew his I think it blew his Lucid account. Ooh. You know. I literally Yeah. You know, that same guy was like I’m not even getting into it but he was definitely like

oh man, I’m making so much money and like he didn’t pull any money out yet and then he blew it. And I was like dude, that money doesn’t count for [ __ ] until it hits your bank account. — Well, idiot. — Yeah, I was like — Idiot. You got to take the money — tell he’s going I’m making this. I’m doing this. I’m doing I’m like bro, like just calm down.

Just just stick to the plan. Like don’t act like you’re just can’t lose. And then like sure enough it just blew. And you know, any of these guys that are like oh, I just made all this money. It’s like did that hit your bank account? They’re like no. I’m like well, then you didn’t make it yet. Like — Well, the best is like rips. I just made 30 30,000 — 31,000 —

using Apex Trader Funding performance accounts. And then you blew them. — Yeah, do you do make anything, dude? You should have to go back and make a video on saying how you didn’t make $31,000 because — And he would never. — You never you never got the [ __ ] YOU NEVER GOT THE MONEY, MAN. — YEAH, none of it matters. All the green days, I mean they they look great but

like none of it matters until the money until you could [ __ ] go and request at least in the prop firm space. — Yeah. I get it if you’re trading your own account. Like you obviously made the money in your account and then it’s your choice to pull it out or not. Like you know, cuz I grow my accounts. You know, I don’t trade a ton of futures live in in

my live account but when it’s like a juicy [ __ ] thing I do. Uh but you know, I even pull out sometimes. I think last time I traded gold I made like 1,500 bucks and withdrew 1,500 bucks. So, I was like, that’s like my little payout. Um but yeah, there’s a lot of that going on, dude. That’s like, you know, talking about him, not necessarily him, because I don’t even know

how he trades, because you don’t know how he — say you didn’t name a name, so — Well, you don’t actually see his orders, so I can’t even tell you how he actually trades. It’s just like, you’re just hanging out and then someone’s like, “Boom, I made $52,312.15.” It’s like, “Bro, no one saw anything. I didn’t even see your order in.” He’s like, “Oh, see, this is my order.” I’m like, well,

you’re not helping anybody out. Like, they didn’t see you place the order, like, you know. — Yeah, that was that was done off stream. — It’s off stream. — Off off — But — on a different — So, I started building all these freaking indicators recently, probably like the last, I don’t know, 2 months. And within the last couple weeks, I’ve been going on these people’s these guru streams. And some of

them have like real in-depth like strategies that you can’t you can’t really like I don’t even know how the [ __ ] they do it. I’m like, dude, who’s going to remember all this [ __ ] But, the guys that use simpler strategies are like, “Oh, well, if this happens, you do this. And if, you know, it trades in this zone for this long, you take the break.” Well, you could put

that information into like ChatGPT or Claude, and basically make their strategy on TradingView, and then they have the TradingView backtester that will tell you how shitty their actual strategy is. And then if you’re like, “Oh, well, that’s not the live environment,” then you could turn that into a NinjaTrader strategy and forward test it, and see what their strategy is like in the live environment. And it’s funny, because a lot of these

guys that are claiming all these gains that do not, you know, make all the off-stream money, the strategy is actually not not profitable. Um It’s definitely not profitable. — would have to take every trade when that — Yes. — that opportunity presented itself. — Yeah, and I’m not saying like at 2:00 in the morning, like from 9:00 I always do it from like 9:30 to like 3:00 in the afternoon, you know,

so I leave out the last the last hour shitty. And I always make sure it’s New York session um cuz that’s where the volume is. I actually did another back test, the worst time to trade. If you’re trading between 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m., almost every strategy I’ve back tested sucks. So, if you’re doing that, you’re losing money. I don’t even know why you’re trading that time cuz there’s no real volume.

It’s just algos, you know, wait until 8:00 when uh Asia starts to open. — Yeah. — You know. A lot of stuff doesn’t even work during Asia, but it gets better um — Yeah, and then you get as you’re leading into London, which is you’re not even awake anymore, but like it starts getting — picks up. — Yeah, picks up and it starts moving. — Yeah, so I have certain strategies that

are from midnight until 6:00 in the morning, and then I have obviously New York session strategies if you want to run automation. But uh yeah, it’s just so funny cuz all these guys that claim to be making this money that you never see them trading live making this money. And the strategies actually don’t work. All you got to do is if you want with anybody, and it’s people that people know and

watch every day. Uh if they’re not making the money live, you should — live in Puerto Rico, do they? — What? — They don’t live in Puerto Rico, do they? — I I I don’t know, man. I’m just saying you should take their strategy. — They mastered that [ __ ] — You could build it in you could build it in freaking Oh, like when Brian was making all his off-stream money

cuz he mastered mastered gold and silver telling everybody and then really he was just doing that stupid [ __ ] — And then they kick them off their platform altogether and didn’t pay them. — Yeah. Yeah. — Totally. — you know, if you’re getting kicked off platforms and they’re not paying you, you’re obviously doing something — kicked out of the entire prop firm. — Yeah, it’s crazy. I mean — he got

fired. — Dude, whatever he was doing was definitely not smart. It was pretty stupid. Um and if you’re following him it’s pretty stupid. But yeah, man, I mean all these guys running these like quote-unquote strategies, dude, they’re just not profitable, but yet they’re telling everybody that they’re making this money off-stream using these strategies and then they’re like they’re on-stream for a little bit and it’s just they’re like, “Oh, you know, I’m

only taking a small amount of money here, but I made all my money earlier off-stream and — Yeah, sure. — Someone asked me what an off-stream guru is and I was like, “It’s a guy that’s making 95% of his money just off-stream on a strategy that doesn’t work and just [ __ ] straight up lying to you. It’s pretty much what it is. — a lot of that going on. — There’s

a lot like it’s more rampant than people even imagine and it happens in every space, option space, future space, crypto space. Uh it’s just people — Anything to do with funds, yeah. The make money online space. People make lie about how they make money online. — Yeah, they make money online — make money making money online selling how to make money online courses. That’s how they make — Dude, that’s that’s what

it is. So, I mean you know, and people are believing it, which is worse. And then when somebody’s actually making money, no one believes them because the space is so tarnished by all these characters. And these characters are people that people know and people watch and I don’t even I I I bite my tongue. I’m not going to start outing people, but you know, you see him. — Oh, [ __ ]

— and you’re like, bro, this guy’s making no money. It’s Or or they they get smoked off stream and then all of a sudden like later on, “Hey guys, I magically made it back.” — Hey chat. — Like, yeah, okay. I believe you.
