Emmanuel Malyarovich
0:00If you give me the next 10 minutes of0:01your time, I'm going to give you the no0:03BS real process of becoming a profitable0:06trader. You see, most traders are0:08looking for that holy grail trading0:10indicator or secret trading system or0:13secret strategy or some other shortcut0:15that's going to help them achieve0:16profitability, but I'm here to tell you0:19that doesn't exist. And before I go into0:21how real people are achieving0:23profitability in 2026, I want to give0:25you a quick little introduction. My name0:27is Emmanuel. I've been a full-time day0:29trader for almost 6 years. I made just0:32shy of half a million dollars in 20250:34day trading stocks, and I have coached0:36thousands of traders and helped them0:38become consistently profitable. In fact,0:41I have over 60,000 students in my free0:4510-plus hour course, and the patterns0:47between which traders actually become0:49profitable and which traders stay stuck0:52for years are clear as day. So, if you0:54give me the next 10 minutes of your0:56time, I'm going to explain how real0:58people are becoming profitable traders1:00in 2026, and hopefully you can begin1:03implementing every single one of these1:05principles within your own trading plan1:07literally starting immediately. So,1:09let's put a 10-minute shot clock on the1:12screen, and let's get started.1:13Ultimately, you don't get paid as a1:15trader for the amount of time that you1:17spend in the markets. You don't get paid1:19for the amount of trades that you take.1:21You get paid for number one, your1:23ability to execute your trading plan.1:26Number two, your ability to manage your1:28risk. And number three, your ability to1:31control your emotions. If you can master1:33those three things as a trader, you will1:36become profitable. So, let's talk about1:38execution first. And the biggest mistake1:40that I see beginner traders make is that1:43they overcomplicate everything in their1:45trading. They think that the more1:47complex their trading system is, the1:50more profitable they will become, but1:52that could not be farther from the1:53truth. And what these traders do is that1:56they use way too many indicators,1:58they're constantly bouncing from1:59strategy to strategy, and they're2:01looking for that holy grail hidden2:03system that no one knows about that's2:06going to help them, you know, become2:07profitable traders. But, none of these2:09things are going to make you profitable.2:11In fact, your ultimate edge as a trader2:15is simplicity. You want a system that's2:18intuitive, that's simple, and that is2:21repeatable. And, you want your trading2:23plan2:24to be systematic, where you're walking2:27into the market every single day with a2:29game plan. You know exactly which setups2:31you're going to trade, you know how to2:33decipher between high-quality setups and2:36low-quality setups, you know how to2:38determine the bias on those setups, and2:40you know where you're going to be2:41entering, where you're going to be2:43exiting, you know how you're going to be2:44managing the position when you're2:46actually in the trade, like where to2:48take profits, and most importantly, you2:50know exactly how much you're going to2:52lose if the trade hits your stop loss.2:56And, you need to know that before you2:58take the trade in the first place. And,3:00you'll know how to limit your losses in3:03case the trade doesn't work, because3:05guess what? Losing is inevitable in3:08trading. You have to develop that risk3:10manager type of mindset. And, before I3:14go a little bit more in-depth about3:16execution, really the first step towards3:18becoming a profitable trader is mindset.3:21Instead of thinking about the money, you3:24should be concerned with how you can3:27become an elite level trader. And, if3:29you do become that elite level trader,3:31the money will come inevitably. So, stop3:35treating this like it's a get-rich-quick3:37scheme, because it is not. Stop focusing3:39on the money. Focus on the process. And,3:43the first step of that is to build your3:45foundation. You can't execute your3:48trading plan if you don't have a3:50foundation behind it. You need a3:52backbone behind your trading, and you3:55want to keep this as simple as possible.3:58You don't want complexities, right? So,4:00stick to one methodology. Don't bounce4:03around from strategy to strategy. Stick4:05to one thing and keep it simple. You4:08should only be using one to three4:10indicators max. For me personally, I use4:13the 20 SMA, I use the 200 SMA, and I use4:17the 9 EMA. So, I use a few moving4:19averages. That is it. I keep it simple.4:22I don't use MACD4:24or Bollinger Bands or RSI or Fibonacci4:26or stochastics or any of these other4:29fancy indicators that you might find on4:31your trading platform. I use a couple of4:33moving averages. That's it. I only trade4:36one to two setups. I will trade a4:39breakout. Okay? I'll find an uptrend or4:42a clear bullish stock. I'll find a stock4:45that has a bullish catalyst, and I'll4:47trade the continuation of that bullish4:49catalyst or uptrend via a breakout.4:53Where prices move up, they consolidate,4:55and I'll look for a breakout to trade4:56the continuation of the trend. Or4:59I'll trade the continuation of a trend5:02via a retracement. Where prices move up,5:05they retrace, and I'll find a buy the5:07dip opportunity to go long. Now, these5:10setups are very, very simple. However,5:12there are nuances. There are very5:14specific criteria that I look for that5:18separates a high-quality setup from a5:20low-quality setup. And that's the way5:21that I like to do things. I like to keep5:23it simple, but you know, it's nuanced5:26where I do look for very specific5:28criteria, but overall, I want to keep my5:30strategy simple. And you need a5:32foundation. Like if you look at a5:34skyscraper, all of the engineers, the5:36architects, right? They spent the most5:38amount of time in the beginning building5:40the foundation so 5 to 10 years later5:43the building doesn't collapse. Well, if5:45you want to become a long-term5:47profitable trader, you need to focus on5:49this foundation. You have to understand5:51what is your edge. What is your mindset,5:54right? Do you have that professional5:55mindset? What price action principles5:57are you focusing on? Do you have rules?6:00What's your trade management? What's6:02your risk and what's your risk6:03management? And if you need help6:05building this foundation and you don't6:07have a system behind your trading, I6:08would just watch my free 10-plus hour6:10trading course. It is genuinely better6:13than most paid courses on the internet.6:14It's going to help you actually build6:16this foundation and system. Next, once6:19you have that foundation, it's time to6:22begin trading. And I recommend6:24transitioning to real capital sooner6:27rather than later. So, I would paper6:29trade for 1 to 3 weeks. I would become6:31accustomed with your platform,6:33understand what the buttons do,6:34understand how to place orders, but I6:36would switch to real money sooner rather6:39than later. I have met a ton of paper6:41traders that make hundreds of thousands6:44of dollars with paper money, but then as6:46soon as they transition towards trading6:48with real capital, they can't make any6:50money at all. Because with real trading,6:52you have real risk. You have real6:54emotions. There's actually money on the6:56line and you're going to trade6:58completely differently because it's real7:00and you need that real experience. So, I7:03would transition to real money sooner,7:05but start with small size, okay? Start7:09with $1 risk per trade, $5 risk per7:11trade. And what I would do is go into it7:14mentally knowing that you might lose a7:17little bit of money in the beginning and7:19you want to allow yourself to lose a7:21little bit of money. Where if you lose7:23200 bucks or 500 bucks or 1,000 bucks,7:26of course, that's going to depend what7:27size you're trading with, but you could7:29think of that as your tuition. Because,7:32you know, as a beginner trader, you're7:34not going to have only winning trades.7:36You're going to have losing trades as7:38you're experimenting, as you're figuring7:39things out, as you're testing, right?7:41Don't aim for perfection. It's okay to7:44take a bunch of trades. It's okay to7:45experiment. That's how you figure out7:47what your trading style is. And7:50every losing trade that you take, as7:52long as you're doing it on small size,7:54long term is actually a winning trade7:57because you're going to be learning from7:59them, okay? Those losers, it's kind of8:02like tuition that you're going to be8:03paying for you to become better. So,8:06transition to real capital sooner.8:08However, use very small risk and make8:11sure you're comfortable with losing a8:12little bit of money in the beginning.8:14That's your tuition for actually getting8:16better. And yeah, don't paper trade for8:19longer than a month, I would say.8:22Number three, risk management is8:23everything. As a trader, you are a risk8:26manager. Your first goal is to preserve8:28the capital in your account. Your second8:31goal is to grow that capital. And you8:33have to understand that it doesn't8:34matter how good you are, losing is8:36inevitable. In fact, what makes a really8:38good trader a good trader is their8:41ability to lose, their actions after8:44they lose. Are they going to revenge8:46trade? Are they going to trade out of8:47emotion? Are they going to change up8:49their trading plan just because they had8:51two losses in a row, right? Losing is8:53inevitable. However,8:55you can control the amount that you8:57lose. You have the ability to size your9:00positions the right way. You can exit9:03when the trade hits your stop loss,9:04right? Those are decisions that you can9:06make, right? You have the ability to9:09control the amount you lose. The9:11question is, are you going to be9:12disciplined enough to actually do it? To9:14actually cut the trade when you're9:16supposed to cut it, right? Uh position9:18sizing is king. When I enter any single9:20trade, I know exactly where my entry is,9:22where my stop loss is, and I size my9:25position for my entry and stop. And I9:27know exactly how much I'm risking before9:29I take the trade. I accept the outcome9:32that the trade might not work out, and I9:34accept that outcome before I take it in9:36the first place. I know losing can9:38happen and I'm a really, really good9:40loser, right? Uh in trading it's not9:42about not losing, it's about becoming an9:44excellent loser and limiting your9:46losses. You have to have that mindset.9:48Number four, to kind of sum it all up, I9:51fear not the man who has practiced9:5310,000 kicks once, but I fear the man9:55who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.9:58And this solidifies the idea of you10:00don't need more knowledge, you don't10:02need more indicators or more strategies10:04or more systems. Keep it simple and10:07focus on one setup, one system. And the10:10way that you're going to be doing that10:11is through pair, prepare, execute,10:15analyze, refine.10:16Learn the foundation and prepare your10:19initial trading plan. Your initial10:21trading plan isn't going to be very good10:23and that's okay, but you're going to10:24execute it and then you're going to10:26analyze. You're going to journal, you10:28know, what were your winning trades,10:30what were your losing trades, what10:32obvious mistakes did you make, what10:33trade management is working for you. Are10:35you losing more money than you want to10:37lose on your losing trades or are you10:39not making enough on your winners?10:41What's your psychological state during10:44every single trade that you take? You10:45want to journal every little bit, every10:48little part about your trading and from10:50there10:51you can analyze it and by analyzing it10:53you can identify what you're doing right10:55and what you're doing wrong and from10:57there you can refine your plan. And once11:00you refine your plan, you're essentially11:01re-preparing it and once you re-prepare11:04it execute it again, you analyze and11:07then you refine. And after like three to11:09four iterations of this, I mean, how can11:12you not improve? You will 100% improve11:15if you do this. If you do prepare your11:17plan, execute it, analyze what went11:20right, what went wrong, eliminate11:22mistakes, refine and then do it again.11:24And over time your improvements11:27day to day, week to week, month to month11:29are going to compound until you finally11:32break through and actually achieve11:34profitability. Treat trading like it's11:36an actual profession, like it's a real11:38career path for you and focus on the11:41process. And if you focus on the11:43process, you focus on keeping it simple,11:45you focus on becoming a better trader11:48every single day, you focus on risk11:50management, you focus on that foundation11:52behind your trading, and if you do that11:54every single day, you will 100% improve11:58until those improvements will compound12:00and you will actually become profitable.12:02And if you need help throughout this12:03entire process, I do personally help12:06scale and coach traders from zero to12:08consistently profitable where I take my12:10students under my wing and they learn12:12how to trade by actually doing it with12:14me on a daily basis and they honestly12:17see life-changing results. So, if you12:19are someone who's a little bit more12:20serious, you want a hands-on mentor, you12:22could book a free consultation call12:25directly below this video in the12:26description as well, and make sure you12:28check out my free 10-Pillar course.12:30Watch it, it will build you that12:32foundation.
