Ever catch yourself thinking…
“Maybe I just need a better strategy?”
That was me for a while.
Until I realized — it’s not always about finding the perfect strategy.
It’s about actually sticking to one long enough for it to work.
In this new video, Michael Toma breaks down exactly why so many traders stay stuck. (Not because they’re bad at trading… but because they can’t stop switching things up.)
You’ll learn:
• Why fear of losing makes you bounce from one system to the next
• How your mindset affects your results way more than your setup
• What rules to follow before you even think about changing strategies
If your trading feels all over the place right now, this is one you’ll want to sit down for.

Got a good number of response on my post about this Saturday’s mastermind call.
Michael Toma, a full-time trader at Desire To Trade, will share his best hacks to read market context.
Normally these calls are reserved for our students.
But this one could make a huge impact on traders who feel stuck or wanting to scale up.
So we decided to open it up to more motivated traders.
Inside you will learn:
- How to react when the market doesn’t do what’s expected
- A simple framework to read
- Simple ways to make money when everyone panics
This is the first time I open up our monthly mastermind to the public.
You'd also get:
- The full recording in case you can’t attend or want to re-watch
- An action plan to make sure you implement the lessons fast in your trading
If you want to get those market context hacks, sign up at the page below:

Since these calls are on Zoom and everyone’s invited to ask questions live, we’ll have to limit this “public opening” to 30 people.
It will be as useful for new traders as it is for more experienced ones.
Keep crushing it! 💪📈

This Saturday we've got a mastermind call I’m pretty excited for…
The title is "How To Hack Market Context For Consistency".
Michael's going to share some techniques to read the market and make better decisions from it.
Normally these calls are reserved for our students.
But this call could make a huge effect on traders who feel stuck or wanting to scale up.
So I was thinking...
If we open it up to the public, would you join us live?
It wouldn't be free because we only want serious traders on the call... but the price would be very small for the value.
You'd also get the recording + an action plan to make sure you implement it in your trading.
If you'd join us, comment below with a "YES".
If there's enough interest to open it up, I’ll put something together.
Keep crushing it! 💪📈

It’s not just about making money—it’s about keeping it, growing it, and thinking long-term.

Inside, we get into:
• Why most traders stay stuck chasing short-term wins.
• How to shift your thinking if you want long-term success.
• What wealth-building actually looks like for full-time traders.
If you want to grow beyond just trading setups, this one’s for you.

I just posted a new video sharing why I quit from day trading—and what I switched to instead.
Less stress, way less screen time, and better results.

If you’re feeling burned out or stuck to your screen, this one’s worth a watch.
