The Day Trading Show

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.Sponsor: Breakout PropLink: https://www.breakoutprop.com/ Code: ASFX  Sponsor: TradezellaLink: ⁠https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx⁠Code ASFX for 20% offThe episode also explores AI’s rapid influence on trading — from generating indicators and strategies to soon analyzing trader behavior, reactions, and performance. Mike breaks down the biggest mistakes he sees retail traders make, how to know if you’re a trend or mean-reversion trader, and why most people fail because they rush instead of collecting real data. They wrap with insights on diversification, long-term portfolio building, and why the next decade of trading will reward those who embrace technology, automation, and disciplined execution.Try TradersPost Today!!Link: https://traderspost.io/?via=ASFXCode: ASFX to save 20%Connect with Mike: https://x.com/TradersPostInc -----------------🚀 Level Up Your Trading with ASFX🎓 Free Futures Course🔥 Start learning the basics with Futures 101🔗 ⁠https://www.asfx.biz/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!🔗 ⁠https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/checkout/new?o=176609&d=FIRST  —🏆 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 -----Timestamps 5:12 — From Fundamentals to Technicals11:40 — Building the First Automated Systems17:30 — What Trader Post Actually Does22:45 — Why Prop Firms Exploded on Trader Post29:18 — Live Example: Copy Trading Multiple Accounts35:04 — Slippage, Execution, and Speed41:22 — Who Automation Is Actually For46:50 — Biggest Mistakes Traders Make55:10 — The Future: AI + Trading Analytics

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 FuturesLink: ⁠https://www.asfx.biz/tof⁠Code: ASFX for 50% offSponsor: TradezellaLink: ⁠https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx⁠Code 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 

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.Connect with Matt - https://www.youtube.com/@UChpET_QRv2MbCxGXtWRytHQ Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: ⁠https://www.asfx.biz/tof⁠Code: ASFX for 50% offSponsor: TradezellaLink: ⁠https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx⁠Code 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 

In this episode, Zach Boyajian returns for a long-awaited Part 2 with futures trader Zach Boyajian. They dive deep into prop firm payouts, SIM farming, overconfidence, and the real cost of copy trading. Zach shares how he went from blowing SIM PRO accounts to balancing personal capital and live prop accounts. He explains why a $20K payout doesn't make you a trader if you lost $15K getting there. The conversation unpacks emotional tilt, overtrading, and the boom-bust cycles that trap most new traders. Zach now trades one high-quality setup a day, focused on risk control and longevity. He breaks down how he uses VWAP, volume profile, and CVD to make sense of the ES and YM chaos. This episode is brutally honest, packed with strategy, and a must-listen for anyone in the prop space.Connect with Zach - https://realdealfutures.com/ Futures Bootcamp Tickets - https://asfx.biz/bootcamp/ Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: ⁠https://www.asfx.biz/tof⁠Code: ASFX for 50% offSponsor: TradezellaLink: ⁠https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx⁠Code 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 

In this episode, Austin is joined by Jen Keter, Rebecca Loree, and Christine Letersky for an honest conversation about the realities of becoming a successful trader—especially for new and part-time traders balancing family life. The group covers where to begin (futures vs. swing trading), how to find your edge, and why the right strategy means nothing without discipline and rules. Jen emphasizes that trading requires sacrifice and focus, especially for busy parents, while Rebecca shares how her passion for finance grew over the years and why strategy shopping—not hopping—is key to growth. Christine offers insight into the emotional side of trading and why swing trading fits her travel-friendly lifestyle better.The group dives deep into key beginner questions: Is trading gambling? Are trading courses worth it? Should you copy trade with prop firms from day one? The consensus is clear—trading only becomes gambling when you lack a plan, mentorship beats courses due to accountability, and no one should start with copy trading until they’ve proven themselves with at least one payout. They also highlight red flags to watch out for with prop firms, including shady leadership and no payout proof. Overall, this episode offers a grounded, relatable look at what it really takes to succeed in trading—strategy, discipline, data, and the right mindset.Connect with Jen - https://www.instagram.com/jen.ketter/Connect with Christine - https://www.instagram.com/christineleterskytrades/ Connect with Rebecca - https://www.instagram.com/rebeccaatrades/ Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: ⁠https://www.asfx.biz/tof⁠Code: ASFX for 50% offSponsor: TradezellaLink: ⁠https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx⁠Code 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 

Christian (“Decipher the Algo”) returns to talk when VWAP beats ICT—and when it doesn’t. We cover sentiment reads, crypto/tech correlation, metals at highs, and a full breakdown of his $10K overnight trend trade from a simple daily inside-bar break.

This week’s episode was all about how to scale your trading business with copy trading. We broke down why prop firms are the best starting point—you limit downside, learn rules, and can grow into bigger payouts faster. The key is proving yourself with one account and one payout first, then using copy trading to multiply small wins across 10, 20, or even more accounts.It’s not about trading all day; most green days come from one or two clean setups—when you scale that across accounts, a $200 trade becomes $2K. If you want to take your trading from “hobby money” to real business income, scaling with copy trading is the proven path.Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: https://www.asfx.biz/tof Code: ASFX for 50% off Sponsor: TradezellaLink: 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 

Bruce Pringle of Bookmap shows how to see confirmed stop runs and iceberg orders, revealing who’s actually in control of the move and why futures’ centralized order book gives retail a transparency edge. He introduces a hands-on Pilot Program that focuses on one setup using Replay + the Bookmap Journal to prove an edge with stats before scaling. The MBO bundle surfaces factual stop/iceberg transactions; filters (including standard-deviation thresholds) and cumulative sub-charts help separate signal from noise and spot regime shifts. They walk through a cascading stop-run example, the common “vacuum” rebound after sellers are washed out, and how icebergs often absorb flow on the other side.Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: https://www.asfx.biz/tof Code: ASFX for 50% off Sponsor: TradezellaLink: 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 

Zach returns after shattering his ceiling: $34K in prop-firm payouts in one month. He explains the flip that did it—moving from high-R/low-win models to negative risk-reward scalping on NQ (5–10 points, limit entries, fewer trades). We dig into how prop rules shape strategy, why high win-rate models fit prop better, platform preferences (Tradeovate vs Project X), Topstep for quick payouts vs bigger buffers on Tradeify, and the real cadence of payouts (they arrive in waves). Zack also shares his counter-intuitive risk curve (start aggressive to build buffer, then size down), how teaching his course sharpened his edge, and practical budgeting so hot streaks become income—not lifestyle creep.Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: https://www.asfx.biz/tof Code: ASFX for 55% off Sponsor: TradezellaLink: 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 Timestamps:02:30 From $10K ceiling to $34K: what changed05:45 The mechanics: NQ +5–10pts, limit fills into FVGs08:00 Trade frequency and copy-trading across firms10:40 Platforms: Tradeovate vs Project X execution12:45 Fast payouts: why Topstep is “easiest” first check15:30 Buffer math with Tradeify 150Ks & consistency rules20:10 Why prop rewards high win-rate, low R models23:20 ICT as framework + volume profile & VWAP crossover27:30 Trading at ATHs: scalping internal liquidity31:45 Common ICT pitfalls (top-calling, timeframe alignment)36:30 Industry talk: payout caps, static DD, personal capital41:00 Payout reality: budgeting for waves, not salaries44:30 Risk curve flip: front-load size, then tighten46:30 Final advice & course tease (ASFX TV, target October)

After leaving his corporate job in London, moving back to Cambridge, and becoming a new dad, Josh committed fully to the markets.

Alex went from touring the world as half of the hit UK DJ duo Tough Love to becoming a full-time futures trader and educator. When COVID shut down his music career, he pivoted from small-cap short selling into futures, developing his “Flowzone” strategy — a system built on EMAs, anchored VWAPs, volume profile, and tape reading with Bookmap. He primarily trades NQ during New York mornings, focusing on location and momentum to find high-probability entries and moving stops to breakeven quickly when momentum confirms.Alex’s advice for consistent payouts: master one setup, trade small to learn firm rules, and avoid leaderboard-chasing mentality. He stresses that traders need to understand market conditions, keep their timeline realistic, and protect both financial and time freedom. Trading is as much psychological warfare against yourself as it is against the market. Social media can push traders to overtrade, so stay process-driven, not outcome-driven.Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: https://www.asfx.biz/tof Code: ASFX for 55% off Sponsor: TradezellaLink: 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
