They exchange trade ideas and then when both agree they put the trade on in their joint account.\u00a0 But again they were missing some of their best trades.\u00a0 They were frustrated.\u00a0 I asked CBry, who runs the trading floor in NYC, to set up a call with both of these traders.\u00a0 I asked for the traders to fix the problem and then join us for a call.<\/p>\n<p>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=x7jF94BNhqY&amp;ab_channel=SMBCapital\">How the Daily Report Card Helped Lance Become the #1 Trader (Prop Firm)<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Obviously if you are not taking all of your A+ trades your PnL will suffer.\u00a0 But it actually suffers more than most think.\u00a0 There is a side effect that happens to traders missing their A+ and this makes things so much worse.<\/p>\n<p>What is that side effect?<\/p>\n<p>That side effect happened to these two traders ready for a breakout year executing on their joint account.\u00a0 Not only were they not capturing the PnL from some of their favorite trades but but but because they were not in all of their best trades, they had periods of time where they were doing nothing.\u00a0 Missing some of their best trades meant there was time where they had no trades on at all.\u00a0 And when a trader has no trades on that can always cause trading trouble.<\/p>\n<p>What kind of trading trouble?<\/p>\n<p>Instead of being in their favorite trades and managing those names, they went trade surfing.\u00a0 They went trade surfing for trades to be in.\u00a0 And with this trade surfing they started trading outside of their PlayBook.\u00a0 Yikes!\u00a0 And this trade surfing caused this side effect of additional trading trouble.<\/p>\n<p>So now not only were they missing some of their A+ trades but they were taking trades they should not have been taking.\u00a0 Their PnL now did not include some of their A+ trades, but it also included trades they should have skipped.\u00a0 So their PnL was not buff enough from A+ trades missed but it also was emasculated with losses from trades outside their PlayBook.<\/p>\n<p>Their results were not representing their true trading ability.\u00a0 In fact, their PnL was much worse than what they were capable of.\u00a0 To put this into PnL estimates, this was potentially the difference from treading water to posting 6-figure months.<\/p>\n<p>I was on the phone with a very successful trader this week, who never needs to make another dime.\u00a0 He now coaches some traders and we were discussing some work he might help us with.\u00a0 He said something that sums up the tragedy of missing some of your best trades.\u00a0 He said, &#8220;It is one thing for traders to fail because they lack ability.\u00a0 But I hate seeing traders fail who shouldn&#8217;t.&#8221;\u00a0 You deserve to experience the success of your best trades.<\/p>\n<p>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=u95QYyIwcts&amp;t=299s&amp;ab_channel=SMBCapital\">You missed a trade!
