How Day Trading Changed My Life

all right I really debated not making this video because it is not me whatsoever I don't like to flaunt what I have but a lot of you guys asked this question how day trading has changed my life so in this video I'm going to tell you exactly what it did in my life Welcome Back to the channel everybody my name is Artie and this is the moving average a show where we discuss everything day trading to keep you profitable so I've been day trading and learning about day trading consistently since about 2019. the first time I got into day trading was like 2014 or 2013. I started getting into like Scottrade and penny stocks and it was just the worst don't ever do that but I got a job at a cryptocurrency exchange and through that process like literally at the time I knew nothing about it so I had to teach myself while I was there I lied in my application saying yeah I know everything and then I spent months and weeks and years literally just learning everything that I could and through that process I learned about day trading and analyzing the charts and during that time at that cryptocurrency exchange I realized that they were a scam so I needed to figure out how to make as much money as possible so that I would have a nice comfortable like cushion a safety net a buffer zone so that I can quit that job and then just trade full-time during that time I was literally using almost every single paycheck just accumulating more and more cryptocurrencies and So eventually as the market started to go down I had a bunch of cryptocurrencies and so I would sell them on spot like I would sell all of my ethereum or all of my Bitcoin and then wait for price to go down and then buy it back again and then use the difference which was my profit and put that aside and use that as my safety net couple of good trades here and there and I was able to quit that job then I rented an office and decided to just sit there every single morning during London session and just trade full-time through that process I was making relatively good income for somebody that lives in Poland because I was earning US Dollars and also cryptocurrency then I started going on more and more vacation and just kind of having this like really nice lifestyle like four or five or six vacations a year and I would post on my personal Instagram or whatever and all of my friends would start asking me dude how are you going on so many vacations how can you afford all of this and so I would tell them about day trading and the things that I'm doing they got super interested in it so I started recording these like small tutorials and I would send them to them then I came up with the great idea of wow this would be a great YouTube channel and that's how I birthed the moving average but what day trading has done for me first I'm gonna go through the material things that you guys really want to know what I buy what I have all of that and then I'm gonna get a little bit deeper into this topic so as most of you guys know from my personal story I had made a bunch of money shorting crypto that gave me a safety net that safety net allowed me to trade a normal account without any pressure because I didn't have the need for money because having a need for money and then day trading is like gambling because you're always looking for that big hit so that you can quit your job and have the comfortable life you need to have a buffer zone a nice Safety Net in order to trade without emotions once I was able to trade without emotions I started playing around with growing small Forex accounts that's when I did the 20 pip challenge I failed it 18 times that video is linked down below but eventually I had a fifty thousand dollar trading account and with that I was able to make like five six seven thousand dollars a month because I live in Poland the currency ratio between dollars and Polish currency is one to four so if you take six thousand dollars and multiply it by four you get twenty four thousand twenty four thousand Polish currency every single month allowed me to have a really great lifestyle because traveling around Europe is extremely cheap now one thing you may not know or you may know about me is I'm absolutely obsessed with bikes so the first thing I did was buy a ton of bikes these are the bikes that I own as well as images of those bikes the first one is going to be a canyon Center CFR our second one is going to be a trek rail this is my e-bike I use it almost every single day it is my go-to bike because I do not like pedaling uphill the next one is going to be an NS movement the next one's going to be a Scott Gambler I bought this just so that my friends would have bikes to ride on when they come ride with me and then a little street bike called across set the next thing I'm absolutely addicted to is gonna be sneakers I have a ton of Jordans high tops and I have a ton of Yeezys the Jordans look cool but are uncomfortable the Yeezys look cool and are comfortable so I easy every day and I have more Yeezys than you can shake a stick at I have every single color that you could imagine these are just the ones that I have at my office literally the most comfortable shoe of all time but if the floor is wet those shoes suck I ate it so hard walking down a ramp once it wasn't even funny I also have a massive obsession with watches but I find it illogical to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on watches unless you're a drug dealer and you just need to move money because moving watches is much easier than moving cash so a majority of my watches are going to be G-Shocks and or Garmin watches I wear Garmin watches so I can track my bike rides as well as track my steps and my Biometrics but I was convinced to buy a Rolex because a person should always have one really nice dress watch so I have a Rolex Submariner pretty much the most basic Rolex that you can buy then when it comes to clothing I really could give less of a about it but when I dress nice my wife finds me more attractive so I own a bunch of nice clothes as well before I used to drive a Passat because I didn't really see the sense in having a nice car but while I was driving around in my really nice clothes and my Rolex I kind of felt out of place in a Passat so my wife convinced me that I deserve a nice car I had already boughten her a Mercedes c43 AMG because she likes small fast cars it's literally just big enough for my daughter to ride in it I hate driving in that thing I love driving it though so what I did was make the most practical decision and bought a family man's car the Mercedes GLE we also have a beautiful condo because in cities the majority of housing is going to be condos it's about 110 square meters with a big green roof about 60 meters so like we have like a yard on top of the building I also recently liquidated all of my cryptocurrency assets and bought something that is just life-changing for me I've always wanted one of those forever homes so I bought a beautiful house that's unfinished on 2.2 acres of land and it is just the best thing ever I bought that thing like a month ago and I've been there every single day just doing yard work with a smile on my face the next way that day trading has changed my life or my lifestyle is that when I go out to restaurants I can go with 10 people or families or uncles or whatever and just order whatever I want everybody can order food drinks dessert and I could just pay for it without ever looking at the prices of anything I eat what I want I spend what I want it's fantastic not having to look at like a menu item be like I'll just have the Caesar salad because it's only you know 15.99 but I would really like the steak I'll order three filet mignons when I go to dinner and not even bat an eye at it the waiters look at me really weird because I'm ordering three individual steaks with no sides on a plate but that's what I want to eat so I do now all the materialistic things aside I know they're really nice I have nice cars I have a nice house I have nice clothes I have nice shoes it literally doesn't matter to me I'm a very humble person that's why I never show it off that's why I'm not you know on Instagram touting my Rolex and driving my Mercedes while I'm day trading with my laptop in it I'm not that type of person I'm not going to teach you how to do something by offering you what the prize at the end of the rainbow is these are all things for me to make my life comfortable I don't like to share them which is why I didn't want to make this video but the most important thing that you guys need to know about how how day trading changed my life is that it allowed me to provide a great and comfortable life for my family as a man it is my job and my obligation and my duty to provide for my family and give them everything that they need plus extra so while I was still driving a Subaru my wife was in a very expensive very fast Mercedes my daughter has so many clothes I've actually had to move out of our closet and move into a smaller closet at the other end of the house we go on approximately four to six vacations a year depending on basically if we're in the mood to go on vacation or not so if we're like oh yeah let's let's go on vacation next week we just plan a trip and we go my daughter's four years old and she's been to 13 countries we've been to Egypt we've been to Dubai we've been to the Canary Islands we've been to the Dominican Republic we've been to Paris the list goes on and on and she is the most spoiled four-year-old that I probably know but because of that and because of my in income potential and the freedom of time that I get from day trading and doing YouTube and having all of these other companies it allows me to compartmentalize my life I wake up at 5am I go to work I work my ass off till noon or 2 p.m once my daughter's out of preschool I am 100 invested in being her dad I play with her I teach her things we have a great time she's my best buddy I get to watch her grow up because I have freedom of time because of my increased income a lot of people spend every single day at work eight hours a day and then they need to pick up another job for another eight hours they never see their family and they're just struggling to survive with day trading you can get out of that vicious cycle that's what it's done for me now remember what I said at the beginning of this video I started day trading seriously about four years ago all of these things that I've had I've accumulated over time over four years as well as my knowledge about day trading that's why I can do q a sessions on the Discord and any question that anybody asks me me about anything day trading is just rapid fire I answer answer answer because my knowledge base is so big that only comes with practice and consistency you do it every day for an extended period of time and you will be a master at it so if you want freedom of time you want to eat whatever you want you want to go on vacations all the time you want to spend time with your family you need to invest the time now and if you're anything like me it's going to take you a while for example for years but from where I was four years ago to where I am now is so many levels above I cannot even fathom how I made that big of a leap in such a short amount of time in retrospect I hope this video inspired you I don't want you guys to look at me differently knowing that I have all of these things and I live this lavish lifestyle I'm a very humble person I just wanted to let you guys know how day trading changed my life and how the most important thing is spending time with family freedom of time is always the number one priority
