Now he's warning that the biggest asset bubble in history is about to break. In this raw conversation, he reveals why knowing your exit matters more than your entry, how unresolved trauma destroys trading accounts, and the exact position sizing strategy that saved his career after multiple wipeouts.Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro 05:00 - NASDAQ pit floor energy 08:00 - Market maker to taker 10:00 - Floor to screen struggle 15:00 - Expenses not losses mindset 20:00 - Position sizing strategy revealed 25:00 - Making generational wealth story 30:00 - MF Global $2M wipeout 35:00 - Driving Uber rebuilding phase 40:00 - Daily routine for discipline 45:00 - 85% market crash warning 50:00 - Specific S&P levels to watch 55:00 - FOMO to JOMO philosophy#futurestrading #daytrading #stockmarketcrashHow to Reach Matt: 🐦 X (Twitter): @paxtrader777 🎥 YouTube: @ThePaxGroup 🌐 Website: https://thepaxgroup.org 📧 Email: [email protected] The Trading Battle: 🐦 X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/ttb_live 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetradingbattle/ 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/thetradingbattleThe Trading Battle — Where Traders Learn, Compete & WinJoin thousands of traders who've discovered their new favorite trading education channel.
