There’s actually a lot of truth in this post. 1. Proper mentorship in any performance endeavor is probably the most important “hack” to speed run the learning curve. Good mentors teach you how to think, how to improve, and give you a path for success. Good mentors save you years of time and effort wasted from going down an inefficient path. 2. It sounds insane, but I’ve truly come to believe that many people don’t want to be helped. I’ve now been training traders for over a decade. It used to be so hard for me to accept this and internalize it because it seems to illogical. As a result, I’d spend thousands of hours pushing a rock up a steep cliff that didn’t want to be pushed and then I’d feel like a failure when my trainees failed. With perspective, you realize that many people aren’t trying to maximize their odds of success…. they’re trying to succeed their way, while maintaining their own ego, and when it doesn’t work they blame others. It made me eventually accept that you can only help those that want to be helped and are willing to 100% fully buy-in and cooperate. Any mentee needs to be giving far more effort, care, and passion than the mentor. 3. Too many people want to take but give nothing in return. Any form of sustainable mentorship needs to be reciprocal. This might be reciprocal in that the mentee saves the mentor time, helps them other areas, pays them, or just simply provides them gratitude and fulfillment. But without a fair exchange, it won’t work and it won’t last.

Some of the most retarded things I've seen in trading: 1. I streamed all my trades from Jan 2024 till ~Aug 2025 my entire run from 30K to multi 8 figs on my mentor's discord, an unprofitable trader who watched everyday stayed unprofitable trading their own style for majority of it. 2. A trader spent a decade trading everyday for multiple tens of thousands of hours and still remains unprofitable. I found him interesting and we were on dms for awhile. I was honestly trying to learn from him. Later on I suceed heavily and hes never once asked me for help even tho I got him sponsored by my rich friend to trade with more funds. 3. I recently tutored my good friend's friend for two sessions as a favor as they were interested in starting trading. That person had a bunch of things they wanted to explore but I tried to help them focus on a few ideas. It was clear they wanted to explore their own style and I was left on read (thank god). 4. At the beginning I was in dms of 3 ex pro players daily about trading. I reached out to all of them about trading with me more closely. They all rejected or wasn't too interested at the time even though I was starting to find sucess. Most haven't reached out to me since or took like 1.5 years to do so when its too late. And many more... All these retards wanted to "be themselves" and "find their own way." They don't want to admit they are heading the wrong path and they don't want to ask for help untill its giga undeniable (too late). Honestly this is probably just normal human (retard) behaviour. And they think I am eGomAXxing because of how I speak. Realistically more real and humble than any negative trader. The first real hope I found in trading when I first started was from going through a paid discord looking at how people talk and msging the people I considered the smartest to teach me something. Most rejected and didn't offer much but @gabriel__daher who was profitable at the time helped me and taught me some shit. Reached out eventually and turned out he was no longer profitable. I taught him some shit for a few hours and dropped him off in another discord with some profitable traders as repayment for his kindness. Though basically I just left him a new starting point. He msged every fucking profitable trader there endlessly till he found a mentor. And now hes BALLIng. Honestly almost every 8 fig trader I know has found their initial sucess through some mentorship or from working together with other traders and developing together. I've personally learnt a lot from a lot of different traders throughout. But how do you get help from other traders? At the end of the day its all about give and take. Surprisingly people nowadays don't quite understand that. Instead they are entitled and demand help. They annoy you and threaten you instead. Their idea is if they are terrible to someone they will get help from them eventually. Bitch I rather burn all my fucking money than help you. It's honestly just a sense of pride and honor as well. As a taker you need to know your place and to at least try to give back or at least feel in debted to try to help them out later. Some people don't mind teaching a good guy who has potential and willing to work hard. Maybe try to be funny? Make them feel good for helping you. The people who leech more than they give will be cut out eventually or just receive less. For me how I got to learn from traders was by sharing to them than they did to me. Or if anyone ever shared something with me thats +ev first I would tax myself to give something back of value. But if those people take it for granted then thats that. As an example some people taught me some shit first like @irigstocks or Zero and I was too bad to help them back but now I have returned the favor to help them out of being WASHED AND TRASH AS FUCK. And of course my mentor who I have no idea where I would be now without him. But also without me I think he would be at 1/3 as well. Give and pay your debts. I still have some left to pay. (was gonna write something but im hungry peace)

All You Need Is Here —— 13 Qullamaggie's Stock and ETF Scans Intraday Scans "Which screen filters my scans? Sure. This is my 'Strongest' scan. These scans are for a specific watchlist I have of the strongest stocks—most of them are growth stocks. Then, like EPs, these are stocks that gap up 7.5% or are up at least 7.5% above yesterday's price, with at least $15 million in dollar volume. Then I have my Momentum watchlist. It’s also a specific watchlist where I pretty much scan for stocks that are up today in that watchlist above yesterday’s highs. This OTC scan... you don’t have to look at that, I’m gonna take it off. I don’t trade OTCs ever; they’ve been dead for many years. For my ETF scan, I look for $30 million in dollar volume and a 6% ADR (Average Daily Range). Then I have Lower Liquidity / Higher ADR scans. These are pretty much stocks that are not very liquid but have a very high ADR, so you can take a smaller position and still make decent money because the stock is likely to make a bigger move. So those are my intraday scans." Weekend & Overnight Scans "Then I have my weekend and overnight scans, which I use to build my watchlists. Pretty much, I scan for the strongest stocks on every timeframe—like one month, six months, three months, two years, one and a half years, etc. They all look the same: $60 million in dollar volume, 3.5% ADR, and ranked among the 7% strongest. The only difference is the timeframe. Then I also scan for the Biggest 5-Day Gainers: $60 million dollar volume and up 25% in the past five days. For ADRs (foreign stocks), you have to scan for them separately in TC2000: $60 million in dollar volume and 3% ADR. So those are pretty much my main scans. Then I also scan for our Biggest Losers on one and two-year timeframes just to find the beaten-down names that could make big moves."
