Navy SEAL Highlights Parallels Between Traders and Operators

Jake Newbold knows a thing or two about perseverance and discipline. The 20-year U.S. Navy SEAL Veteran exemplifies everything it means to put service before self and the importance of hitting the ground running each day.

On the latest episode of Market Rebellion’s Cocktail Hour, Jake Newbold sat down with the Rebel Traders to highlight some of the shared values between special forces operators and traders.

The keys: Earn your trident everyday. Master the basics. And develop a plan for success.
