How She Replaced Her Husband's Income With Prop Firms
Jen Ketter is back on The Day Trading Show with a lot to catch up on: almost $50,000 in payouts from Tradeify, a live account call-up three weeks after having her third baby, and a big update on her goal of replacing her husband’s income.We talk about how trading and building her personal brand have created more choices for her family, why she scaled back during pregnancy, and what happened when she lost accounts she’d already taken multiple payouts from.Jen also shares what changed her approach to risk-to-reward. Looking back at her own trades, she saw how chasing bigger wins was costing her. We get into taking profits, handling losses that wipe out several green days, and learning to recover from drawdown without throwing the account away.We also discuss her return to Team Bull, learning options, why she prefers certain prop accounts, and why she chose the opportunity to trade live over taking a cash offer to stay in sim.Jen will also be joining us as a speaker at our May bootcamp. Excited for you guys to hear this conversation.What’s one belief about trading you’ve changed your mind on?
