Sponsored by Pepperstone



A scalper came on one of our Traders Mastermind calls and said he was struggling… not because he couldn’t trade — but because he was trying to hold trades longer to be more “proper.”



What I told him might just be the reminder you need today:



If something’s working, and you’re not walking through landmines to do it… then double down.



In this episode, I unpack:



  • Why forcing yourself to trade a “better” way can backfire
  • The difference between refining your edge vs. diluting it
  • When to burn the textbook and go all-in on your strengths
  • A simple test to know if your current strategy is legit or lucky.


If you’re profitable, but second-guessing your style because it’s not “by the book”… this one’s for you.
