In this episode of The Trader's Journey, Anthony sits down with Alex Temiz, co-founder of My Investing Club (MIC), to discuss how he went from being a Starbucks barista funding a tiny account to building over $16 million in verified trading profits—primarily shorting small-cap momentum and failed breakouts. Alex explains the evolution of his edge: why "buy the breakout" didn't work for him, how he learned to identify repeatable patterns, and why the real separator isn't a secret setup—it's process, stock selection, and knowing when to size up. Alex shares some of the most practical risk frameworks in the small-cap world: the Zombie Rule (why he stops trading after 10:30), his 30% VWAP rule, why "fixing your average" is a trap, and how broker-level max loss settings can act as your risk manager when emotions take over. This episode places focus on discipline, data, and knowing which battles are worth fighting.
