The speaker shares their experience of financial hardship, detailing how they faced significant debt and developed a trading strategy through extensive backtesting to achieve consistent income and recover financially.
When I got down, I think to my last, I think 11,000 in the trading account, all on credit cards and have nothing else in the bank. That's when I sat down I was like I need to figure this out. This is not working. I have burned through everything. I need to figure out what I need to do and that's where that experience, right of running that business. I sat down, I wrote down my problems. I'm like what's in front of me? What I need? I need $1,000 a week with 13 something thousand dollars trading account. I can't remember somewhere like 10 to 13,000. I think I was like that's first off, that's insane. Like I don't know how I'm going to do that but this is what I've got to do. I didn't have a backup plan so I started thinking credit spreads are really good for consistency but with that size account I can make a hundred dollars a month. How can I make a thousand dollars a week? And I started solving problems and I came up with a strategy and I back traded to that strategy for probably 60 hours, just nonstop day and night back traded, figured out what might work.
