Jesse aka @PsychoOnWallSt – Chat With Traders Podcast Episode 057

5 Million Dollars Worth of Beginners Luck with Jesse, aka @PsychoOnWallSt

This week’s interview is with Jesse, who is known on Twitter as @PsychoOnWallSt, which is a play on the film American Psycho. The amazing thing about Jesse is that he made half a million dollars within 90 days trading marijuana penny stocks, then lost it all pretty quickly.

He calls his approach as a hybrid between a swing trader and day trader and returned to part-time trading after doing it full time. He describes it as a profitable move. He wants to keep trading so he can use the money to open a fully functional no-kill animal shelter someday.

What’s Covered in This Interview:

  • Jesse shares his experience trading penny stocks during the Marajuana boom, and how to make and lose half a million dollars in three months
  • What Paul thinks it means to be a hybrid – going between a day trader and a short term swing trader
  • Jesse’s techniques on scanning stocks, creating alerts, managing positions and scaling in and out of trades
  • Why Jessie went from trading full time back to doing it part time
  • How emotions comes into play when making decisions, especially when trading is your only source of income
  • Jesse’s opinion on premium trader education services
  • The gap that is usually overlooked when deciding between wanting to become a trader and actually making your first trade
  • Jesse’s ongoing fight for animal welfare, including issues that more people need to be aware of, and how you can help play an important role in his cause
