Emotional stance toward big returns

In this episode of The Trader's Journey, Anthony sits down with Nick Kasnett (NKaz) to review his incredible account growth for 2025 — over 600% – not as a flex, but as a case study in consistency, journaling, and risk.

Nick explains why he came into 2025 with no big expectations, how he finally broke long-standing patterns of big, avoidable losses, and why this year felt different: fewer home runs, more singles and doubles, and an obsessive focus on small losses, price action, and letting go of bias.

Nick then lays out the lessons he's taking into 2026 AND shares direct advice for traders who had a career year and for those who had a disastrous 2025 and are trying to rebuild.
