US Marine Turned $500,000+ Prop Firm Trader

I have a statistical edge.

I've shown a lot of success.

And I've only been trading just over a year.

And I've already had a few months where I'm hitting six figures.

I think it cost me overall probably around $1,500.

And I turned it into $55,000.

If you've ever wondered whether trading can actually change your life, today's guest is living proof that it can.

Meet Logan.

He's a former military contractor turned student of the markets to now being a mentor.

If something doesn't work out, it's fine.

I'm used to a job where if you're having a bad day, it's a lot more drastic.

I have a bad day in Afghanistan.

That kind of explains itself.

I have a bad day on the market.

Lost a little bit of money.

You can find a good strategy.

And if you follow that edge, for the most part, you would think you would do well.

But I can confidently say that trading

is 90% successful.

He's made over $500,000 in the last 18 months of his career.

And he's already up six figures in the first four months of 2026.

And I will always tell beginners and even intermediate and advanced traders, stick to the prompts.

Why would you want to switch from it? It doesn't make sense logically.

Ideally, I try and tell everybody, if you can, New York Open.

Think anybody who wants to disagree that New York Open isn't the best timeframe, you're wrong.

So my strategy, my training is very, very simple.

With my setup is we literally look for...

He live streams his trading daily and shares the entire process with his audience.

In today's episode, we talk about the importance of discipline and routines as part of your day.

And most interestingly, he shares what it's really like to make an entire year's salary in a

single month.

You have to understand the market conditions are always different.

Right now, we have some combative situations going on overseas, or you might have tariffs, or you might have anything, an election going on.

So it's very difficult to backtest because the market is always changing.

So that's why I always say you need a front test as well.

The difference is, let's get into it.

Now, when it comes to guests of the show, I don't think there's anybody better to talk about discipline than our guest today.

He has gone from being a military contractor to a student of the markets to now a mentor.

They have completely transformed their life in a short space of time.

And I'm interested to figure out how that's been done.

They've been able to take an old yearly salary and make that in just one month.

I'm really interested to hear more about their story and what it takes to achieve that level of transformation.

And I'm sure there's something we're all going to learn from this.
