Coffee With Chris: His Path to Becoming a Pro Trader 21st  Sept, Noon.

We are happy to announce that on the 21st of September at noon EST, we’ll be hosting Christopher Gray, who will be taking us through his path to becoming a professional trader. This is one of those webinars where everyone should get at least a gem or two of intel to help in their trading. Some of you will be close to Chris’s journey and others further away.

Chris Who?

Chris currently works as a lead educator at Earn2Trade, a Jigsaw partner and ‘power user’ of Journalytix. He’s been an active trader for approximately 15 years, and he’ll be taking us through his journey. 

We’ll look at how long he has been a trader, his certifications with the NFA/FINRA, and where he is and what he does today.

With that out of the way, he will dive into the psychological barriers he faced for years that needed to be conquered before he had any realistic shot at closing consistently satisfied in the long term.
Then we’ll discuss the approaches he took to overcome his psychological demons in a way that you should find inspirational and of extreme value. 

Also – please note that Chris’s approach to trading doesn’t mirror my own, so for that reason, it’s also worth a listen. To get some new perspective on trading that you won’t necessarily get from Jigsaw.

TCP – What is it’s significance in the Trader Funding Industry?

The Trader Career Program is an evaluation that works much like Earn2Trade’s other evaluation called the Gauntlet Mini. Except that it will allow traders, once funded, to increase their trading capital progressively, withdraw their profits without being penalized, and have access to bigger account sizes to trade with.

The program starts with a 25K account. Once the trader passes the exam, they get funded with a 25K account. Once they meet the profit target in the funded trading account, they withdraw their profits and move up into a 50K funded trading account with a fresh trailing drawdown. The final goal is a 200K account with a FIXED DRAWDOWN of $6,000.00!

In other words, it’s the only funded account evaluation that allows traders to scale the size of their funded account once they get funded.

Note also – Earn2Trade are offering an amazing 50% off the first month of their already low-priced Trader Career Path,  to get access to that discount – click here and use coupon code “Jigsaw50” for a 50% discount.

Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

The following is a mandatory disclaimer for SIM Trading results:

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN; IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM. ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK OF ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT TRADING RESULTS.
