The TraderLion Podcast interviews Matthew "Shake" Pryzby, who finished second in the 2024 US Investing Championship, about his trading journey and strategies. Pryzby details his early career at T3 Trading, where he learned technical analysis but felt pressured into unprofitable trades, leading him to develop his own style by integrating Dan Zanger's swing trading with William J. O'Neil's fundamental analysis. A key element of Pryzby's strategy involves top-down charting, focusing on weekly and monthly charts to identify trades, then using smaller timeframes like 30-minute charts for precise entries. He emphasizes the importance of IPOs, IPO bases at lows, and Friday swings, aiming for a 5:1 risk-reward ratio and managing emotions through journaling and self-awareness.
