The failure rate of people who dive right into the market is fairly high. Why? Because new traders don’t have the discipline necessary to succeed. New traders need a safe place to hone their skills and craft their strategies. Michael Patak’s mission is to provide a safe experience so traders can professionalize their passion. In this episode of How To Trade It, we talk about Michael’s journey and what he believed solidified his career in trading. We also talk about his firm—TopstepTrader—and how they’re helping new traders develop trading discipline.
