If you’ve been trading a while, in fact even if you’ve only been interested in the idea of trading, you’ll probably have read Jack Schwager’s book Market Wizards. A really superb series of interviews with famous traders. And you may have gone on to read the sequel, Unknown Market Wizards. Well, in this second book, the second name in the contents list is Jason Shapiro, a trader from New Jersey. Jason kindly agreed to come on to the show today, late in September 2022, to talk to me about his life as a contrarian trader.

Don't Trade with your own Money

I don't know why it took me so long - confidence, perhaps, i.e., lack thereof - to realize I would be so much better off trading someone else's money, not my own.  

Mid February 2023 I started the 'audition' at Surge Trader on a virtual account of 100K. If I pass - that means hitting a profit of 10K - I get to trade 100K, again, not my money.

Surge Trader  get great reviews online and you can get 90% Profit Split once you're trading one of the their funds.I don't know why it took me so long - confidence, perhaps, i.e., lack thereof - to realize I would be so much better off trading someone else's money, not my own.  Mid February 2023 I started the 'audition' at Surge Trader on a virtual account of 100K.
