Published: April 21, 2016, 8:39 a.m.

b'Welcome back for another installment of the Chat With Traders podcast. I\\u2019ve got an awesome guest lined up for you, John Carter, from Austin Texas.\\nIn short; John is an options trader (and also futures, to a slightly lesser extent), he\\u2019s been trading for around about 25 years now. His typical holding time for any given trade is just a couple days, and he classifies himself as an aggressive trader \\u2013 which I think you\\u2019ll pick up on pretty quickly.\\nIn this interview, you\\u2019ll hear I ask John about the multiple boom \\u2018n bust cycles he endured over the space of about 8 years before gaining real consistency. I also ask, is a high risk tolerance essential for becoming a successful trader?\\nThen we get into some talk about options, and John has some really great advice for those who are still trying to find their feet. Additionally, we talk about indicators and technical analysis, and we go step-by-step through John\\u2019s million dollar TSLA trade.\\nSo there\\u2019s a lot packed into this episode, I hope you enjoy it, but more than that, I hope you can take at least just one thing away from this and apply it to your own trading.\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
