In this episode, Dan dives into the real edge that separates pros from amateurs: tracking. Whether it’s your fitness, sleep, screen time—or your trades—if you don’t measure it, you can’t improve it. Dan breaks down how consistent tracking leads to better performance, the concept of trading expectancy, and why journaling your wins and your mistakes is the fastest way to real growth. He also explains a common and destructive habit: averaging down, and why it's like giving a raise to your worst employee.
This is your call to get serious about trading—like a professional, not a gambler.
What You’ll Learn:
Why journaling and data tracking are essential for trading success
The true meaning of trading expectancy and how to use it
Why small losses are part of the game—and how to make them count
Why doubling down on losers is the fastest way to blow up your account
The difference between being a trader and a gunslinger
Why TradeTrak exists (and how it eliminates your excuses)

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
