About this listen

In this episode of The Lo-Down, Lorenzo sits down with trader and educator Kam Dasani, who became a millionaire by 30 and now trades seven-figure prop-firm capital without risking his own money. But this conversation isn’t about hype or shortcuts — it’s about the mindset, emotional control, and disciplined decision-making that separate the top 1% of traders from everyone else.Kam opens up about the habits that helped him grow a $700K personal account, why 99% of traders lose, and how he built a system that can be executed in under a minute a day. He also breaks down how prop firms actually work, why emotional regulation matters more than strategy, and how Bitcoin’s four-year cycles shape long-term wealth.This is a raw, grounded look at what it really takes to succeed in an industry where most people fail — and how the lessons from trading apply to life, business, and personal growth.KEY TOPICSThe mindset and discipline behind top 1% tradersWhy most traders fail before they even startTrading with $0 of your own capital through prop firmsHow Kam built a $700K personal accountEmotional control, rules, and decision-makingThe truth about “passive trading”Bitcoin cycles and long-term wealth frameworksMentorship, accountability, and escaping the corporate pathConnect With Kam: Instagram: @profitwithkam(https://www.instagram.com/profitwithkam/?hl=en)LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/in/kam-dasani-937005101/Connect with Lorenzo:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lorenzo.mercadoWebsite: https://www.mercasaventures.com | www.AscentCapital.llc Listen to The Lo-Down Podcast 🎙Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-lodown/id1764777761🎙Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1YjwXXjvFT3mqve6uMF983Chapters:0:00 – Intro to Kam: millionaire by 30, unique trading approach1:00 – Why 99% of traders fail2:30 – Emotional control and trading psychology4:00 – Gambling vs trading: what separates pros from amateurs6:20 – Kam’s $700K portfolio + $1M+ prop-firm capital7:00 – How prop firms REALLY work: the catches and advantages10:00 – Exclusive partnership: funding traders in-house12:00 – Who Kam trains and why beginners succeed faster14:00 – Time freedom, remote lifestyle, trading anywhere in the world17:00 – How much time you actually need to trade daily18:00 – Can trading become passive?
