This man’s name is Larry Williams. Before we get started on his story, here’s a “dirty secret” from the man himself: (Read to the end to see how he turned $10k into $1.1M)

He turned $10k into $1.1M in just 12 months… As ICT’s mentor, he's held the Robbin's Cup World Record for over 37 years. Now that we know ICT can't beat his record… Here's the story of the trading king 👇

1) Early Story In 1962, Larry was studying at the University of Oregon with a degree in journalism. “I took an economics class and walked out after one day, it made no sense to me.” Ironically he hated economics, but then he found trading…

2) Old Trading Trading Commodities used to be extremely difficult… Larry Williams said nobody had risk management and it was all “Kamikaze Cowboy Trading”. Then he learned about “smart money”...

3) Trading With Smart Money Larry explains how smart money will buy as price goes down. He says not to enter “right away” when big players are buying in… Wait for the trend to change, THEN look for a buy signal.

4) Larry’s Mentor Larry learned many lessons from a humble trader who lived a “hermit lifestyle”. He took Larry under his wing, taught him his theories, and most importantly gave him encouragement. Then Larry dove into “relative strength” theory…

7) When to Buy “Strong stocks get stronger.” Larry says many traders make the mistake of “buying low and selling high” He’s lost a lot of money trying to pick bottoms, and believes that “strength prevails”.

8) Turning $10k into $1.1M “That was the worst year of my life.” Larry actually turned the $10k into $2M, then lost a million… He risked 30% of his equity on every single trade, and it took tremendous focus, discipline, and a bit of luck.
