In this episode, Austin sits down with Matt Owen, a former serviceman turned full-time futures trader and founder of Flipping Futures. Matt shares his nine-year journey from crypto and options to mastering order flow on the ES, explaining why resilience, discipline, and risk management matter more than any “get-rich-quick” prop firm pitch. He breaks down how he uses volume profile and order flow for razor-sharp precision and why most traders fail because they treat prop accounts like demo money instead of building good habits with real capital.Together, Austin and Matt dive deep into the mindset of a true professional — focusing on process over outcome, developing repeatability, and learning to win slow. It’s a raw, honest conversation about what trading really demands and how to survive long enough to succeed.Connect with Matt - https://www.youtube.com/@UChpET_QRv2MbCxGXtWRytHQ Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: https://www.asfx.biz/tofCode: ASFX for 50% offSponsor: TradezellaLink: https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfxCode ASFX for 20% off🚀 Level Up Your Trading with ASFX—🎓 Free Futures Course🔥 Start learning the basics with Futures 101🔗 https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/categories/Futures101—📊 Custom VWAP Indicator⚡️Get the exact tool I use to find high-probability setups!🔗 https://www.luxalgo.com/asfx—🎥 Join My Live Trading Streams💬 Watch me trade LIVE every morning – breakdowns, setups, and strategy!💥 Use code ASFX for 50% OFF your first month🔗 https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/catalog—🏆 Prop Firm Discounts – Save Up to 50% with code ASFX🔗 Top One Futures → https://www.asfx.biz/tof 🔗 Take Profit Trader → https://www.asfx.biz/tpt — 🧠 Master Your Stats with TradeZella💰 Use code ASFX for 20% off🔗 https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx —🧱 Save on Bookmap🔍 See the order flow like never before🔗 https://bookmap.com/members/aff/go/thesilverinvestm?i=144

How These Stay At Home Mom's CRUSH Prop Trading
In this episode, Austin is joined by Jen Keter, Rebecca Loree, and Christine Letersky for an honest conversation about the realities of becoming a successful trader—especially for new and part-time traders balancing family life. The group covers where to begin (futures vs. swing trading), how to find your edge, and why the right strategy means nothing without discipline and rules. Jen emphasizes that trading requires sacrifice and focus, especially for busy parents, while Rebecca shares how her passion for finance grew over the years and why strategy shopping—not hopping—is key to growth. Christine offers insight into the emotional side of trading and why swing trading fits her travel-friendly lifestyle better.The group dives deep into key beginner questions: Is trading gambling? Are trading courses worth it? Should you copy trade with prop firms from day one? The consensus is clear—trading only becomes gambling when you lack a plan, mentorship beats courses due to accountability, and no one should start with copy trading until they’ve proven themselves with at least one payout. They also highlight red flags to watch out for with prop firms, including shady leadership and no payout proof. Overall, this episode offers a grounded, relatable look at what it really takes to succeed in trading—strategy, discipline, data, and the right mindset.Connect with Jen - https://www.instagram.com/jen.ketter/Connect with Christine - https://www.instagram.com/christineleterskytrades/ Connect with Rebecca - https://www.instagram.com/rebeccaatrades/ Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: https://www.asfx.biz/tofCode: ASFX for 50% offSponsor: TradezellaLink: https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfxCode ASFX for 20% off🚀 Level Up Your Trading with ASFX—🎓 Free Futures Course🔥 Start learning the basics with Futures 101🔗 https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/categories/Futures101—📊 Custom VWAP Indicator⚡️Get the exact tool I use to find high-probability setups!🔗 https://www.luxalgo.com/asfx—🎥 Join My Live Trading Streams💬 Watch me trade LIVE every morning – breakdowns, setups, and strategy!💥 Use code ASFX for 50% OFF your first month🔗 https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/catalog—🏆 Prop Firm Discounts – Save Up to 50% with code ASFX🔗 Top One Futures → https://www.asfx.biz/tof 🔗 Take Profit Trader → https://www.asfx.biz/tpt — 🧠 Master Your Stats with TradeZella💰 Use code ASFX for 20% off🔗 https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx —🧱 Save on Bookmap🔍 See the order flow like never before🔗 https://bookmap.com/members/aff/go/thesilverinvestm?i=144

Scaling Your Futures Prop Trading Business With Copy Trading!
This week’s episode was all about how to scale your trading business with copy trading. We broke down why prop firms are the best starting point—you limit downside, learn rules, and can grow into bigger payouts faster. The key is proving yourself with one account and one payout first, then using copy trading to multiply small wins across 10, 20, or even more accounts.It’s not about trading all day; most green days come from one or two clean setups—when you scale that across accounts, a $200 trade becomes $2K. If you want to take your trading from “hobby money” to real business income, scaling with copy trading is the proven path.Sponsor: Top One FuturesLink: https://www.asfx.biz/tof Code: ASFX for 50% off Sponsor: TradezellaLink: https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx Code ASFX for 20% off🚀 Level Up Your Trading with ASFX—🎓 Free Futures Course🔥 Start learning the basics with Futures 101🔗 https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/categories/Futures101—📊 Custom VWAP Indicator⚡️Get the exact tool I use to find high-probability setups!🔗 https://www.luxalgo.com/asfx—🎥 Join My Live Trading Streams💬 Watch me trade LIVE every morning – breakdowns, setups, and strategy!💥 Use code ASFX for 50% OFF your first month🔗 https://asfxtv.uscreen.io/catalog—🏆 Prop Firm Discounts – Save Up to 50% with code ASFX🔗 Top One Futures → https://www.asfx.biz/tof 🔗 Take Profit Trader → https://www.asfx.biz/tpt — 🧠 Master Your Stats with TradeZella💰 Use code ASFX for 20% off🔗 https://tradezella.com?fpr=asfx —🧱 Save on Bookmap🔍 See the order flow like never before🔗 https://bookmap.com/members/aff/go/thesilverinvestm?i=144
