📘 Get your FREE 115-page Ultimate Trading Guide: https://go.traderlion.com/uihtcLinda Bradford Raschke — Market Wizard, founder of LBR Capital Management, and 45-year trading veteran — joins Richard Moglen at the TraderLion Conference 2025 for one of the most candid presentations ever given on how to actually trade successfully when you have a full-time job, a family, and limited screen time. This isn't about hot setups or chasing momentum. It's about behavior, process, and the painful truth that most retail traders sabotage themselves long before the market gets the chance.Linda walks through the three ways to approach the markets — passion, hobby, or job — and explains why treating it as a hobby first is the single biggest unlock for part-time traders. She shares case studies of real traders she's mentored over 20+ years: the brilliant friend with two accounts (one quiet 2-to-5-day options strategy that prints, one over-active account flat after four years), the 20-year veteran running one bread-and-butter model while baking bread and vacationing in Italy, "Swiss Miss" trading just three futures markets at a specific time of day, and "part-time Aaron" with 7-minute holding times. The throughline: every successful part-time trader narrows down to one or two strategies and stops trying to do everything.🔥 What You'll Learn:✅ Why approaching trading as a hobby first removes the performance pressure that's silently destroying your bottom line✅ De la Vega's four 1688 principles that still describe modern trading psychology better than most current books✅ The difference between trade management and risk management — and why most part-timers confuse the two✅ Why over-trading is a dopamine addiction, not a strategy problem✅ How successful part-time traders narrow down to one or two strategies, often after a decade of trial and error✅ The 5-SMA strategy Linda still uses on relative-strength leaders like IBM✅ "Chunking the data" — using the 8 a.m. opening range to structure short-term trades around a job✅ Why peak-performance sports books beat 90% of trading psychology titles for the priceWhere to follow Linda:🔗 lindaraschke.net📕 Books: Street Smarts, Trading Sardines (now back in print)Enjoy!The TraderLion TeamFollow us:https://www.instagram.com/traderlion_https://x.com/TraderLionhttps://www.facebook.com/traderlionhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/traderlionhttps://www.tiktok.com/@traderlionTimestamps0:00 — Intro3:02 — Trading as a Passion, Hobby, or Job — Pick the Right One7:07 — De la Vega's 4 Enduring Principles From 168811:07 — The Behavioral Biases That Quietly Kill Most Traders16:02 — Step 1: Brutal Accountability and Behavioral Honesty17:27 — Take the Pressure Off — Treat It Like a Hobby18:50 — Trade Management vs. Risk Management — They're Not the Same23:09 — The Hard Facts: Only 3-6% of Retail Traders Are Profitable28:22 — Process, Process, Process — Building Your Rule Set31:52 — Case Study "Joe": Two Accounts, One That Quietly Prints41:46 — Case Study: 20-Year Veteran With One Strategy, One Losing Year in 2044:15 — "Swiss Miss" — Three Futures Markets, One Time of Day45:25 — Part-Time Aaron — 7-Minute Holding Times That Actually Work48:15 — Lower Frequency, Fewer Markets, More Discipline52:01 — The 5-SMA Strategy on IBM (Set It at Night, Walk Away)55:30 — Chunking the Data: 8 a.m. Opening Range Trades for Working Traders1:00:23 — High-Beta Opening-Range Gappers (KLAC Case Study)1:02:32 — Systematic Trading: Toby Crabel and Range Expansion1:08:11 — Record Keeping by Hand — Linda's 20-Year Ritual1:13:26 — The Year-End Summary: Written Plan, Sleep, Journal, Magic Crystals1:19:24 — Q&A
